Abstract:

It is a common conjecture that all convex polyhedra must be edge-unfoldable but to date a valid proof of this has escaped discovery. This dissertation presents several new directions in the quest for the proof. Also discussed is a method which may lead to a counterexample to the conjecture through the construction of ‘hard to unfold’ polyhedra. Algorithmic solutions are discussed for the task of determining the specific set of edges which must be cut in order that an unfolding not self-intersect. A series of <i>Unfolder </i>algorithms are explored and compared, in terms of both algorithmic des

Abstract:

Att tolka, omtolka och göra nya gestaltningar i rum är viktiga arbetsuppgifter för en inredningsarkitekt. Hur kan jag arbeta med en metod för att undersöka olika rumsliga relationer? Storytelling inom arkitektur och design uppfattas många gånger som något kommersiellt laddat, men bär inte alla rum på en berättelse? I mitt examensarbete utforskar jag storytelling och berättelsers struktur som en metod för att arbeta med rumsligheter. Varje plats eller rumslighet berättar åtminstone en, om inte flera, berättelser. Genom att analysera en befintlig plats ’berättelse’ kan jag genom förhålla mig

Abstract:

The results of this thesis concern folding of one-dimensional objects in two dimensions: planar linkages. More precisely, a planar linkage consists of a collection of rigid bars (line segments) connected at their endpoints. Foldings of such a linkage must preserve the connections at endpoints, preserve the bar lengths, and (in our context) prevent bars from crossing. The main result of this thesis is that a planar linkage forming a collection of polygonal arcs and cycles can be folded so that all outermost arcs (not enclosed by other cycles) become straight and all outermost cycles bec

Abstract:

This thesis covers work on two topics: unfolding polyhedra into the plane and reconstructing polyhedra from partial information. For each topic, we describe previous work in the area and present an array of new research and results. Our work on unfolding is motivated by the problem of characterizing precisely when overlaps will occur when a polyhedron is cut along edges and unfolded. By contrast to previous work, we begin by classifying overlaps according to a notion of locality. This classification enables us to focus upon particular types of overlaps, and use the results to c

This thesis discusses the multifaceted status of the photograph, as a contribution to understanding the mechanics of the production of meaning within the photograph. In order to get a better view of how photographs function, I both revisit discourses that have dealt with medium specificity issues and use my own practice, designing an apprehension model which can assist in the achievement of a more rigorous conception of the photograph. An integrative literature review, based on Photography discourses and debates shaped by both theorists and practitioners, provides the tools needed for defining

As cinema intertwines with different aspects of our daily life, it also provides a space for people to emphasize their ideologies and emotional feelings. Through different genres of films, the audiences are able to experience the stories that take place at a distant location on the world, and feel the extraordinary emotions that are unusual in the daily life. Despite the diversity of cultures within the worldwide cinema, the audiences are usually able to connect to

Abstract:

Mechanical denaturation has emerged as a novel method to study chemical and physical properties of protein molecules. In this thesis, single-molecule force spectroscopy has been carried out using the atomic force microscope to investigate the mechanical design of proteins through denaturation via an applied mechanical force. In the first study, a small globular protein has been shown to exhibit pronounced anisotropic response to directional mechanical stress. One protein can be both mechanically strong and weak. It will be strong when direction of the force vector is aligned with particular st

ClpA's in vivo contribution to cellular maintenance is small, but it serves as an ideal model for energy-dependent molecular machines.

Abstract:

Philosophy of Psychology was an area of major concern and interest for Wittgenstein in the final years of his life. The phenomenon of aspect-perception found repeated mention in his writings and lectures during this period. In my thesis I explore Wittgenstein's notion of aspect perception and argue for an interpretationist reading of it. I investigate into the nature of that interpretation considering the feasibility of it being something like Helmholtz' s Unconscious inferences. I also examine McDowell's conceptualist account of perception tracking the intuition that interpretation takes plac

One of the main reasons why developers investigate code history is to search for the rationale for code commits. Existing work found that developers report that rationale is one of the most important aspects to understand code changes and that it can be quite difficult to find. While this finding strongly points out the fact that understanding the rationale for code commits is a serious problem for software engineers, no current research efforts have pursued understanding in detail what specifically developers are searching for when they search for rationale.

von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a multidomain glycoprotein that has well-established functions in haemostasis and thrombosis. The lack of a constraining disulphide bond results in unfolding of its VWF A2 domain under rheological forces in the vasculature. This unfolding of the VWF A2 domain is an important aspect of VWF function, as it facilitates the proteolysis and regulation by the plasma metalloprotease ADAMTS13. In this thesis, I investigate the structural elements of the VWF A2 domain that control its transition from folded to unfolded state. Dye binding measurements made during the tempe
