description: Η παρούσα διατριβή με τίτλο «Η μετάλλαξη της τρομοκρατίας με τη χρήση του κυβερνοχώρου: η περίπτωση της ισλαμικής τρομοκρατίας», ερευνά το φαινόμενο της κυβερνοτρομοκρατίας και εάν οι τεχνολογίες πληροφοριών και επικοινωνιών (ΤΠΕ) επηρεάζουν την τρομοκρατία. Στόχος είναι να εντοπιστεί ο αντίκτυπος που έχουν αυτές οι τεχνολογίες στον επιχειρησιακό τρόπο δράσης της τρομοκρατίας. Η διατριβή υιοθετεί μια ολιστική προσέγγιση, που εξετάζει το πώς η τρομοκρατία και ο κυβερνοχώρος αλληλοεπιδρούν και σε ποιον βαθμό. Το θεωρητικό υπόβαθρο της διατριβής είναι βασισμένο στη κυματική θεωρία του Rapoport, «Τα τέσσερα κύματα της μοντέρνας τρομοκρατίας». Η κυματική θεωρία χρησιμοποιείται για να διερευνηθεί το κατά πόσο η κυβερνοτρομοκρατία συνιστά το πέμπτο κύμα τρομοκρατίας. Ο Rapoport υποστηρίζει ότι κάθε κύμα τρομοκρατίας είναι ένας κύκλος δραστηριοτήτων, με διαφορετικές τεχνικές, μέσα, δρώντες και επιχειρησιακό τρόπο δράσης. Συνεπώς, το φαινόμενο της εξελικτικής πορείας της τρομοκρατίας σε επιχειρησιακό επίπεδο, γίνεται σύμφωνα με τη παραπάνω θεωρία. Η δημιουργία ενός στέρεου θεωρητικού υποβάθρου σχετικά με την κυβερνοτρομοκρατία, είναι αναγκαία για να υπάρχει μια ολιστική προσέγγιση του φαινομένου. Το εμπειρικό μέρος της διατριβής βασίζεται στη μελέτη του ευρύτερου φάσματος των δραστηριοτήτων στον κυβερνοχώρο που αφορούν την Al Qaeda και το ISIS. Η ανάλυση των εμπειρικών τους δεδομένων γίνεται σύμφωνα με το μοντέλο «Ψηφιακή Τζιχάντ», για να εντοπιστεί η εξελικτική τους πορεία σε επιχειρησιακό επίπεδο. Σημαντική αναφορά γίνεται στη θεωρία της ασφαλειοποίησης του κυβερνοχώρου από την Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση και τον τρόπο αντιμετώπισης της κυβερνοτρομοκρατίας. Μέσω της εξέτασης του θεωρητικού πλαισίου και των εμπειρικών δεδομένων, η διατριβή καταλήγει ότι επιβεβαιώνονται ορισμένα μόνο από τα κριτήρια της θεωρίας του Rapoport. Συγκεκριμένα, ως προς το ιδεολογικό υπόβαθρο, που χαρακτηρίζει το κάθε κύμα, οι περιπτωσιολογικές μελέτες της Al Qaeda και του ISIS, τοποθετούνται στο Θρησκευτικό κύμα τρομοκρατίας. Ως προς τα υπόλοιπα κριτήρια, τα οποία είναι η χρήση βίας ή απειλή χρήσης βίας για περάτωση πολιτικών στόχων, ο διεθνής χαρακτήρας και ο αντίκτυπος των δράσεων τους, η ύπαρξη του κύματος μετά από ένα καταλυτικό γεγονός (π.χ. η τρομοκρατική επίθεση της 11ης Σεπτεμβρίου 2001, οι στρατιωτικές επεμβάσεις σε Αφγανιστάν 2001 και σε Ιράκ 2003, ο «Πόλεμος κατά της τρομοκρατίας»), η χρήση της τεχνολογίας ως μέσο και τέλος η δημιουργία μιας νέας πολιτικής πραγματικότητας (ίδρυση Χαλιφάτου), η Al Qaeda και το ISIS τοποθετούνται στο πέμπτο κύμα τρομοκρατίας.

description: Using the invariant form of the equation of geodesic deviation, which describes relative motion of free test particles, we investigate a general family of D-dimensional Kundt spacetimes. We demonstrate that local influence of the gravitational field can be naturally decomposed into Newton-type tidal effects typical for type II spacetimes, longitudinal deformations mainly present in spacetimes of algebraic type III, and type N purely transverse effects corresponding to gravitational waves with D(D-3)/2 independent polarization states. We explicitly study the most important examples, namely exact pp-waves, gyratons, and VSI spacetimes. This analysis helps us to clarify the geometrical and physical interpretation of the Kundt class of nonexpanding, nontwisting and shearfree geometries.

Thermal and Developmental Ecology of Pupfish, Cyprinodon
Creators: name: Jones, Alexander
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2017

description: Pupfish from the genus Cyprinodon are among the most endangered groups of fishes on the planet, with nearly 40% of species being threatened with extinction. These pupfishes are often assumed to be the most temperature tolerant of all fish, coping with temperatures as low as 0 °C and as high as 44 °C. However, conflicting data exist and certain measures of thermal tolerance are not markedly higher in pupfish compared to common game fish. Pupfish egg production and growth has been known to be hampered at temperatures well below what they apparently experience in nature. I addressed why eggs fail to hatch at high temperatures using reciprocal transplant experiments and measurements of oxygen consumption over the course of development. Parental thermal history appears to influence successful hatching more than egg incubation temperature. Eggs which are reared at the ecologically relevant temperature of 33 °C exhibit altered and unusual oxygen consumption patterns compared to eggs incubated at a lower temperature. I employed a capture-mark-recapture study and field experiments in a dynamic and hypervariable creek environment (Salt Creek, CA) to determine whether individual pupfish which experience temperatures as high as 40 °C survive long-term. Pupfish in Salt Creek appear to colonize warm environments during the spring when conditions can be favorable for growth and reproduction; however, these fish risk death by desiccation and heat exposure if they remain in warm environments during the summer months.

title: Affinity Points in Variable Frequency Drive - Motor Systems
Creators: name: Hicks, Christophe
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2018

description: This thesis work will quantify power flow characteristics of variable frequency drive (VFD) systems at utilization voltages (208V3 phase) under normal and abnormal operating conditions. Abnormal operating conditions are defined in this thesis work as over or under voltages at or exceeding 10% of the nominal rated voltage for 1 sec to 10 sec durations. Motivation and direction towards efficient power use has produced new devices which can be implemented at utilization voltage levels. Those devices are designed to modernize use through efficient energy consumption. Existing system planning methodologies incorporate larger VFD motor system (>4160V) dynamics and lump lower voltage levels through constant impendence or current models. Empirical evidence is needed to correlate electrical VFD motor power flow at utilization levels and provide input to higher level system planning. VFDs create additional system disturbances, harmonics, and solutions require the installed system to be analytically parameterized to identify components to build or purchase. It is conjectured, the introduced (VFD) harmonics can be mitigated through electrically coupled compensators, and an analytical solution exists which can compensate for the introduced stresses on the electrical system and that solution can be further extrapolated to a general motor VFD installation topology.

Shear Thickening in Polymer Stabilized Colloidal Suspensions

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper adopts a previously developed activation model of shear thickening, published by the authors, to sterically stabilized colloidal suspensions. When particles arranged along the compression axis of a sheared suspension, they may overcome the repulsive interaction and form hydroclusters associated with shear thickening. Taking advantage of the total interaction potential of polymeric brush coating and van der Waals attraction, the applicability of the activation model is shown within the validity range of a continuum theory. For the comparison with an extensive experimental investigation, where some parameters are not available, the onset of shear thickening can be predicted with realistic assumptions of the model parameters.

Beyond the Bench and the Bedside: Examining Women's Success in STEM via Active Learning Projects
Creators: name: Thoman, Sarah E.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2018

description: Gender inequality is a persistent challenge in fields related to science, engineering, technology, and math (STEM) in the U.S. The current study aims to advance the literature in a burgeoning area of inquiry by identifying factors that may help to account for women's success in STEM. To evaluate STEM success, I used a mixed methods design to investigate STEM identity, career identity status, career commitment, and both individual and situational resilience among women undergraduates. Students were engaged in two project-based STEM programs organized at a large, diverse, research intensive university in the Southwest U.S. Associations between resilience and career commitment, as well as narrative insight into resilience and career identity status emerged. Results further psychological insight into STEM success while providing insight into women's experiences in active-learning programs. Findings also suggest avenues to enrich theoretical models and help inform new directions to examine in educational and career development programs or interventions in STEM.

description: By using random matrix models we uncover a connection between the low energy sector of four dimensional QCD at finite volume and the Heisenberg XX model in a 1d spin chain. This connection allows to relate crucial properties of QCD with physically meaningful properties of the spin chain, establishing a dictionary between both worlds. We predict for the spin chain a third-order phase transition and a Tracy-Widom law in the transition region. We postulate that this dictionary goes beyond the particular example analyzed here and can be applied to other QFT and spin chain models. We finally comment on possible numerical implications of the connection as well as on possible experimental implementations.

The New Cambrian Children
Creators: name: Watanabe, Shin
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2018

description: This MFA thesis is comprised of my collection of poetry entitled The New Cambrian Children. There are fifty-five pages of poetry in this thesis exploring themes of nature, technology, dystopia, and childhood.
Much of the contemporary writing and discussion surrounding the natural world and its relationship with humanity and technology imagines dystopia. There is a tendency to see the world arising from industrialization, computing technologies, and the World Wide Web as a violation of nature and human spirit. This book does not refute this emotional tenor, nor does it claim knowledge of its conclusion. Instead, it forwards conversations between these entities which are at times dystopic, and at others beautiful and true.
Many of the poems in this collection rely on the juxtaposition of images, ideas, and voices. They form a tapestry of sound, voice, and image which aim to convey truth. The poems are written primarily in free verse, but engage with elements of rhyme, line, and meter. The thesis also includes poems written in Haiku and concrete poetry.
Some of the poems rely on recurring characters and voices, such as the Salmon Emperor in "Lying in the Snow" and "The Salmon Emperor Accepts All Casualties as Vital Imperatives." This recursion allows for reflection and examination and brings the pieces of the exploration together.
The poems in this thesis speak in a variety of voices: violators, victims, people and nature. They include voices from the internet and physical world in conjunction with the mythic voice of the poems' characters. These voices paint the landscape of the thesis and explore its themes through their activity. In this way, the thesis forges a mythology of its own making.
Finite Difference Modeling of Surface-~Wave Scattering for Shallow Cavity Detection
Creators: name: Norcott, Heston Travis
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2014

description: Data collection and analysis of scattering of Rayleigh-type surface waves are investigated for locating shallowly buried cavities. Surface-based seismic experiments conducted by others at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) Engineering Geophysics Test Site (EGTS) demonstrate scattering of Rayleigh waves caused by buried empty barrels (essentially air-filled cavities). The interpretation of the data is complicated by factors such as the presence of a high-velocity geologic layer just below the cavity.
This research uses a finite-difference seismic wave propagation code to compute time histories for a model that represents the Engineering Geophysics Test Site. By adding cavities to a background model, the time histories show scattering of surface waves due to the cavity. Complications in the wave train are caused by the high velocity layer. Starting by modeling a through-going cavity in an otherwise homogeneous soil model allows for identification of essential characteristics of time histories that reveal the presence of the cavity. The same homogeneous model without a cavity serves as a baseline to compare time histories and their frequency content. Layers are added and cavity length is reduced to create a more realistic model for comparing synthetic data with experimental data. This research compares experimental data to synthetic data in the forms of time histories, overtone images, and stacks of overtone images. The stacks of overtone images succeed for complex situations where the other approaches fail.
Comparing the synthetic data from the model that represents the EGTS, using a convolved real source, to the experimental data from the EGTS, the stacks of overtone images demonstrate similarities. Variations in amplitude mark the locations of the cavities in both cases. Power spectrums and a cavity characterization parameter proposed by others are also studied for their capacity to indicate the presence and location of the cavities.

Spectral Decomposition of the Scattered Light due to Deposits on the Solar Panel Surface, and Cross Correlated to Power Loss
Creators: name: Ho, Suzanna
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2014

description: The electric energy generated by solar panels declines due to dust particulates, bird deposits, water spots, and other contaminants that inhibit sunlight absorption and promote light scattering. As part of our research, we use cameras to capture images of solar panels, and analyze the images to detect the amount of scattered light. The more scattered light there is, the less light there is to penetrate the solar panel glass and reach the part of the panel that converts incident light to electric energy; therefore, less energy is generated. In this paper, we discuss the classification algorithm we developed to classify panels as clean or dirty. Dirty panels suffer from loss of electric energy generation and they need cleaning in order to restore their performance.

description: We present an implementation of electroweak Z-boson production in association with two jets at hadron colliders in the POWHEG framework, a method that allows the interfacing of NLO-QCD calculations with parton-shower Monte Carlo programs. We focus on the leptonic decays of the weak gauge boson, and take photonic and non-resonant contributions to the matrix elements fully into account. We provide results for observables of particular importance for the suppression of QCD backgrounds to vector-boson fusion processes by means of central-jet-veto techniques. While parton-shower effects are small for most observables associated with the two hardest jets, they can be more pronounced for distributions that are employed in central-jet-veto studies.

description: In this study, we present BVR photometry of V369 Gem in 2006 - 2008. We combined our V data with the data taken from the literature. We analysed all the data together and calculated the new light elements. General features of the light curves were discussed. The light curves were modelled with the Fourier method and the Fourier coefficients calculated. The cos(2theta) term was found to be dominant. The pre-whitened V light curves demonstrated that stellar spot activity also exist. There are generally two minima in the pre-whitened light curves. Thus, there must be two spotted areas, which are separated about 180 deg from each other. As conclusions, we have remarked for the first time that V369 Gem is an ellipsoidal variable with the high level chromospheric activity.

Like in the local Universe, the value of alpha_co is a factor of ~5 smaller in starbursts compared to normal star-forming galaxies (SFGs). We also uncover a relation between alpha_co and dust temperature (Tdust; alpha_co decreasing with increasing Tdust) as obtained from modified blackbody fits to the far-infrared data. While the absolute normalization of the alpha_co(Tdust) relation is uncertain, the global trend is robust against possible systematic biases in the determination of Mdust, GDR or metallicity. Although we cannot formally distinguish between a step and a smooth evolution of alpha_co with the dust temperature, we can conclude that in galaxies of near-solar metallicity, a critical value of Tdust=30K can be used to determine whether the appropriate alpha_co is closer to the starburst value (1.0 Msun(K kms pc^2)^-1, if Tdust>30K) or closer to the Galactic value (4.35 Msun (K kms pc^2)^-1, if Tdust<30K). This indicator has the great advantage of being less subjective than visual morphological classifications of mergers/SFGs, which can be difficult at high z because of the clumpy nature of SFGs. In the absence of far-infrared data, the offset of a galaxy from the main sequence (i.e., log[SSFR(galaxy)/SSFR_MS(M*,z)]) can be used to identify galaxies requiring the use of an alpha_co conversion factor lower than the Galactic value.

description: We use the in-in or Schwinger-Keldysh formalism to explore the construction and interpretation of effective field theories for time-dependent systems evolving out of equilibrium. Starting with a simple model consisting of a heavy and a light scalar field taken to be in their free vacuum states at a finite initial time, we study the effects from the heavy field on the dynamics of the light field by analyzing the equation of motion for the expectation value of the light background field. New terms appear which cannot arise from a local action of an effective field theory in terms of the light field, though they disappear in the adiabatic limit. We discuss the origins of these terms as well as their possible implications for time dependent situations such as inflation.

Scalability Analysis of Blockchains Through Blockchain Simulation
Creators: name: Goswami, Sneha
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2017

description: The past decade has witnessed a surge of cryptocurrencies such as bitcoins, litecoin, dogecoin, peercoin, bitcoin being the most popular amongst them. Enthusiasts and skeptics have debated and come up with disparate opinions to contest both the success and failures of such currencies. However, the veracity of such opinions can only be derived after true analysis of the technological breakthroughs that have occurred in this domain. Blockchains being the backbone of such currencies is a broad subject that encompasses economics, law, cryptography and software engineering. Most of these technologies are decentralized and are open source algorithms. Blockchains popularity is largely based on its tremendous potential of carrying huge amount of data securely over a peer to peer network. This feature of blockchains has leveraged its value in the market for many companies who want to use blockchains for enterprise goals and profit making. For a more comprehensive understanding of blockchains and how the block generation algorithm works , how transactions are included in a block we must understand the genesis of the blockchain technology, what exactly it represents and its relevance to the real world. Despite its advantages, blockchains still remain a novel technology and their remains areas of concerns that can be bettered for attaining ideal efficiency. This research delves into the scalability issue of blockchains and provides a comparative analysis of several blockchain parameters with real time data . It delves into the factors that make block chains largely non-scalable. This is done by the simulation of blockchain. It then addresses the various mechanisms that can be employed to resolve this limitation through measuring the differences between the simulator and real time scenarios.

COMMENTS: Included in quadraticauda by Ellerman and Morrison-Scott (1951) and subsequent authors, but the species has a much smaller and narrower skull (see measurements in Hoffmann, 1987: 134) and is therefore regarded as distinct. Differences were also recognized by Corbet (1978c:26).

Reconsolidating: The Effect of Spatial Context and Expectations
Creators: name: Kiley, Chris R.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2017

description: Consolidation is the process by which memories become stable over time. Accessing a previously consolidated memory trace brings it back into a labile state where it must then undergo a re-stabilization process known as reconsolidation. During this process memories are again susceptible to interference and may be updated with new information. Reconsolidation has been demonstrated in animals as well as in the procedural and episodic human memory systems. The exact boundary conditions for reconsolidation are not yet known. Some studies suggest that reconsolidation is only necessary when new information is presented in a spatial context that is indistinguishable from the spatial context of the original memory, indicating that spatial context alone has the properties required to reinstate the context of the original learning. Other recent results indicate that regardless of space, reconsolidation is used as an updating mechanism that is only required when there is a mismatch between original and new learning. Here, I provide further evidence that spatial context plays an important role in triggering reconsolidation, and that a single salient cue is unable to do so (Experiment 1). However, if spatial context is not varied, it may be the case that prediction error can be used to create a need for memory updating via a reconsolidation process (Experiment 2).

A Fast Ellipsoid Model for Asteroids Inverted From Lightcurves

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics (astro-ph.IM)

description: The research about asteroids attracts more and more attention recently, especially focusing on their physical structures, such as the spin axis, the rotation period and the shape. The long distance between Earth observers and asteroids makes it impossible to get the shape and other parameters of asteroids directly with the exception of the NEAs (Near Earth Asteroids) and others passed by some spacecrafts. Generally photometric measurement is still the main way to obtain the research data for asteroids now, i.e. the lightcurves recording the brightness and positions of asteroids. Supposing that the shape of the asteroid is a triaxial ellipsoid with a stable spinning status, a new method is present in this article to reconstruct the shape models of asteroids from the lightcurves, with the other physical parameters together. By applying a special curvature function, the method calculates the brightness integration on a unit sphere and Lebedev Quadrature is employed for the discretization. At last the method searches the optimal solution by Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm to minimize the residual of the brightness. By adopting this method not only related physical parameters of asteroids can be obtained at a reasonable accuracy, but also a simple shape model of Ellipsoid can be generated for reconstructing more sophisticated shape model further.

The Mental Organization of People's Permanent and Situational Attributes
Creators: name: Larson, Kathleen
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2014

description: This thesis investigated whether readers would integrate physical descriptions of characters into one coherent mental representation or if they would keep mental representations separate. The integration of multiple concepts has been examined in the context of the fan effect, which is the finding that an increase in the number of learned associations for a concept can result in an increase in retrieval times and error rates (Anderson, 1974). However, there is typically not a fan effect when people are able to organize the related information into a single integrated situation model (Radvansky & Zacks, 1991). Previous studies investigating the fan effect have focused on objects and locations, but few studies have examined how people organize physical traits about individuals. Thus, the current experiments examined whether situational (i.e., temporary, or based on the situation) and permanent physical attributes from multiple sentences are stored separately or can be integrated, and this was examined in the context of predictions made by situation model theory (Radvansky & Zacks, 1991; Radvansky, Spieler, & Zacks, 1993) and ACT-R theory (Anderson & Reder, 1999). Consistent with situation model theory, all experiments showed evidence of a differential fan effect, however, in some cases, integration did not occur in patterns that were predicted by situation model theory. Other explanations for the pattern of results are discussed.
