Measuring creativity in an improvised jazz context: a preliminary tDCS study

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Musical improvisation involves the generation of original and contextually appropriate musical sequences. This investigation focused on whether brain stimulation applied to the motor cortex influences creativity and technical fluency in musical improvisations. Previous research on creativity has examined two important brain networks: the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), which underpins attention and monitoring, and the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC), which regulates mind wandering and mental simulation. Other research on music has examined the significance of the premotor cortices, which include the ventral and dorsal pre-motor cortex (vPMD & dPMD,respectively) and the pre-supplementary motor area (pre-SMA) that aid in the generation of musical sequences and high level of motor planning and execution. To date, the primary motor cortex (M1)has not been explored in musical creativity. The M1 mediates movement of the hand, and is also involved in the consolidation and acquisition of motor skills. This investigation examined the role of the M1 regions in creativity, motor performance and technical fluency in a jazz improvisation context. The relationship between creativity and technical fluency was also assessed. The role of the M1 regions was evaluated with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), which is a non-invasive, safe and painless form of brain stimulation that modulates the neural activity over the desired area. Minute electrical currents are delivered through two saline-soaked electrodes: the positive (anodal) electrode stimulates neural activity, whilst the negative (cathodal) electrodes inhibits neural activity. Bi-hemispheric, online tDCS was applied to the M1 region of proficient musicians. Two tDCS groups were used, Anodal-Left M1/Cathodal-Right M1 (n = 4) and Cathodal-Left M1/Anodal-Right M1 (n = 4) whilst they completed a sight reading and improvisation task. The level of creativity and technical fluency of the performances were assessed by an expert adjudicator (n = 1). It was hypothesised that applying excitatory tDCS over the M1 region of proficient musicians will enhance both creativity and technical fluency compared to inhibitory tDCS. The results from the preliminary study illustrates a trend that excitatory tDCS over the M1 region enhances creativity (p =.07). Furthermore, excitatory tDCS also significantly enhanced technical fluency (p =.05) when compared to inhibitory tDCS. These preliminary results provide some evidence that the M1 region is a brain area that aids in the enhancement of creativity, technical fluency, and motor performance in an improvised jazz context with proficient musicians.

description: A new geography of regional decline is signalled as a prominent source of discontent. This study considers regional divides in the Netherlands, and examines what trajectories can be detected in regional development and how these relate to recent regional discontent. Based on quantitative analyses of longitudinal data at the NUTS-3 level, we found a persistence of social and economic inequalities over the last decade(s). Our main result is that evidence for economic decline at the regional scale is limited, and unlikely to account for regional discontent in the Netherlands. Pathways of regional divergence and decline were mostly found in demographic change. Anti-establishment attitudes across Dutch regions were strongly associated with lower income, lower population change and ageing.

description: Institutional theory holds that local governance is essential in shaping regional economic activity. This study evaluates whether local economic growth targets offset the detrimental effect of nationwide policy uncertainty on local business performance. Regression analyses of data from industrial firms and manually collected data on city economic growth targets in China show that higher local growth targets result in greater corporate investment, conditional on nationwide policy uncertainty, and that the impact is substantial through financial subsidies and allocating credit resources. However, local discretion in economic growth target setting might cause investment misallocation and efficiency loss.

description: The magnetically charged SU(2) Reissner-Nordström black-hole solutions of the coupled nonlinear Einstein-Yang-Mills field equations are known to be characterized by infinite spectra of unstable (imaginary) resonances $\{ω_n(r_+,r_-)\}_{n=0}^{n=\infty}$ (here $r_{\pm}$ are the black-hole horizon radii). Based on direct {\it numerical} computations of the black-hole instability spectra, it has recently been observed that the excited instability eigenvalues of the magnetically charged black holes exhibit a simple universal behavior. In particular, it was shown that the numerically computed instability eigenvalues of the magnetically charged black holes are characterized by the small frequency universal relation $ω_n(r_+-r_-)=λ_n$, where $\{λ_n\}$ are dimensionless constants which are independent of the black-hole parameters. In the present paper we study analytically the instability spectra of the magnetically charged SU(2) Reissner-Nordström black holes. In particular, we provide a rigorous {\it analytical} proof for the {\it numerically}-suggested universal behavior $ω_n(r_+-r_-)=λ_n$ in the small frequency $ω_n r_+\ll (r_+-r_-)/r_+$ regime. Interestingly, it is shown that the excited black-hole resonances are characterized by the simple universal relation $ω_{n+1}/ω_n=e^{-2π/\sqrt{3}}$. Finally, we confirm our analytical results for the black-hole instability spectra with numerical computations.

description: Recognising the intricate link between ports and regional economies, this study investigates the spillover effects of neighbouring ports on regional industrial diversification and economic resilience. Analysing South Korea’s 2006–20 export data from port and neighbouring port regions, it uncovers the unique feature of ports as a distinctive knowledge source within their port regions, mainly attributable to the respective logistic and trade systems governing similar product groups. The paper confirms that ports facilitate industrial diversification through spillover effects when it is related with the regional industries. Emphasising ports’ role in strengthening economic resilience, it highlights their significance in nurturing emerging industries post-crisis.
title: Water supply into Lake Neusiedler See to prevent shrinkage
Creators: name: Barilits, Sandra Anna
Year: 2024

description: Der Klimawandel führt zu steigenden Temperaturen und Trockenperioden in vielen Regionen der Welt. Dadurch sind sensible Ökosysteme, wie flache Seen, dramatischen Veränderungen ausgesetzt, welche auch signifikante Auswirkungen auf deren Artengemeinschaften haben. In jüngster Vergangenheit hatte auch der Neusiedler See alarmierend niedrige Wasserstände. Wir untersuchten Wasser vom Neusiedler See verdünnt mit Regenwasser. Dazu führten wir ein Verdünnungsexperiment mit Regenwasser durch und analysierten potentielle Veränderungen von chemischen und physikalischen Eigenschaften. Das erste Experiment konzentrierte sich auf Zeiteffekte in Verdünnungsserien. Die Ergebnisse legen nahe, dass Parameter wie Alkalinität, der pH-Wert, Partikelstreuung und Trübe statistisch signifikanten Interaktionseffekten von Zeit x Verdünnung unterliegen. In einem zweiten Experiment untersuchten wir diese Effekte mit wiederholter Eindampfung von Wasserproben, gefolgt von einer Verdünnung mit Regenwasser (um schwankende Wasserstände über mehrere Jahre zu imitieren). Wir fanden keine signifikanten Effekte von Trübe und Streuung, aber Zeit x Verdünnung Interaktionseffekte bei der Leitfähigkeit und dem pH-Wert.
description: Climate change is leading to rising temperatures and drought events in many regions of the world. As a result, sensible ecosystems such as shallow lakes may undergo dramatic changes, resulting in significant impacts on their communities. Lake Neusiedler See faced alarming low water levels in the recent past. We studied water originating from this lake diluted with rainwater. We conducted a dilution experiment with rainwater and studied potential changes of chemical and physical properties. The first experiment focused on time effects in dilution series. The results suggest that parameters such as alkalinity, pH-value, particle scattering and turbidity are subject to a statistically significant interaction effect of time x dilution. A second experiment examined these effects with repeated concentrating of water samples followed by dilution with rainwater (mimicking varying water levels over some years; evaporation experiment). We did not find significant effects on turbidity and scattering, but time x dilution interaction effects on specific conductivity and pH-value.
(CS 12) Ocular Manifestations of Intracranial Meningioma: A Case Series
Creators: name: Adnan, Wan Nur Ain Wan
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Introduction: Meningiomas are the most common primary brain tumors in adults, representing approximately a third of all intracranial neoplasm. Ocular presentations can be variable. Herein, we present variable ocular presentations in intracranial meningioma. Results : Patients involved are 2 females and 1 male with disease onset ranging between 39 to 57 years old. Each of the patient presented with different ocular complaint. The first patient presented with transient visual obscuration and symptoms of raised intracranial pressure, with ocular examination revealed papilledema. The second patient had bilateral gradual visual loss with evidence of bilateral optic atrophy. The third patient had diplopia with protrusion of the right eyeball, which the examination showed severe right eye non-axial proptosis with mass effect and a complex unilateral ophthalmoplegia. MRI showed location of tumor at the olfactory groove, suprasellar and greater wing of sphenoid. The first patient had a complete resolution of ocular symptoms and papilledema post-surgical intervention, while the other 2 patients had worsening symptoms and declining visual functions. They required multiple surgeries and radiation therapy due to aggressive tumour progression. Discussion/Conclusion : Intracranial meningioma may pose a significant ocular morbidity. While some patients may respond well to treatment, the disease can be progressive and highly aggressive, causing a treatment challenge.

description: In order to investigate the long-term dimensional stability of matter, we have operated an optical resonator fabricated from crystalline silicon at 1.5$\,$K continuously for over one year and repeatedly compared its resonance frequency $f_{res}$ with the frequency of a GPS-monitored hydrogen maser. After allowing for an initial settling time, over a 163-day interval we found a mean fractional drift magnitude $|f_{res}^{-1}df_{res}/dt|<1.4\times10^{-20}$/s. The resonator frequency is determined by the physical length and the speed of light, and we measure it with respect to the atomic unit of time. Thus, the bound rules out, to first order, a hypothetical differential effect of the universe's expansion on rulers and atomic clocks. We also constrain a hypothetical violation of the principle of Local Position Invariance for resonator-based clocks and derive bounds for the strength of space-time fluctuations.

description: Simulation (molecular dynamics and Car-Parrinello [Phys. Rev. Lett. 55, 2471 (1985)]) and diffraction (x-ray and neutron) studies on nitromethane are compared aiming at the determination of the liquid structure. Beyond that, the capabilities of the methods to describe liquid structure are discussed. For the studied liquid, the diffraction methods are performing very well in the determination of intramolecular structure, but they do not give detailed structural information on the intermolecular structure. The good agreement between the diffraction experiments and the results of molecular dynamics simulations justifies the use of simulations for the more detailed description of the liquid structure using partial radial distribution functions and orientational correlation functions. Liquid nitromethane is described as a molecular liquid without strong intermolecular interactions such as hydrogen bonding, but with detectable orientational correlations resulting in preferential antiparallel order of the neighboring molecules.

description: The UK levelling up agenda includes a commitment to devolution, but there has been little attempt to model the operation of possible accompanying regional tax powers. We use computable general equilibrium simulations to analyse the local impacts of regional tax cuts. These reduce production costs, thereby stimulating regional economic activity. But the financing of any subsequent deficit and the operation of the regional labour market determines the size, nature and dynamics of resulting economic outcomes. Further, the decision to target labour or capital costs has implications for a range of regional economic impacts.
An inquiry into improvisation: reconciling the differences between performance and composition
Creators: name: Strazzullo, Guy
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Improvisation and composition share a range of intertwining processes, rather than representing either end of a clear dichotomy. This becomes especially apparent through the exploration of the experiences, composition and improvisation processes in the realisation of the creative practice of this thesis, which consists of a double concerto for guitar/piano/chamber orchestra, and pieces for jazz quartet.This study explores improvisation within the framework of composition through creative practice and analytical exegesis, and addresses 1) A paradigm that accentuates differences between performance and composition based on spatiotemporal perspectives, and 2) Challenges in extending the potential and possibilities of improvisation/composition through an intercultural approach.The theoretical framework consists of analysis and discussion of the creative practice, investigation of temporal theory, perceptions of spontaneity/premeditation, and intercultural elements in improvisation/composition. The central argument of the exegesis claims that improvisation, beyond performance, is not only engaged in composition through multiple levels of improvisation activity, but its process closely resembles that of performance. I add a view to the dialogue arguing that distinctions such as real-time/non-real time improvisation, and rapid/slow composition are unstable in the improvisation/composition paradigm. I argue this is because although muchresearch has been invested in improvisation in performance and allied cultural and political concerns there are two main reasons improvisation in composition remains an obscure topic. First, is the general absence of improvisation consciousness in the last century and a half of Western art music. Second, is the lack of historical record by past renowned composers that were known for their remarkable improvisation ability, but left virtually no reflections on the creative mechanisms of their compositions.The findings in this study illuminate the dialogue with a view that apparent differences in the improvisation/composition paradigm are not only reconcilable, but also negligible.

description: Petroleum economics is the field that studies human utilization of petroleum resources and the consequences of that utilization. Petroleum use allows the production of energy. Resources can be regarded as renewable or depletable; petroleum falls into the latter category, which can have an effect on pricing strategies. Crude oil is one of the main natural feedstocks used to meet energy demands and price variation has a significant influence on the society development. A large amount of research suggests that oil price fluctuations have considerable consequences on economic activity. These consequences are expected to be different in oil importing and in oil exporting countries. Whereas an oil price increase should be considered positive news in oil exporting countries and negative news in oil importing countries, the reverse should be expected when the oil price decreases. The paper investigates the co-movements and causality relationship between oil prices and GDP of selected oil exporting countries. Our assumption is decreasing oil prices has a negative impact on the GDP of such countries.

Memory biases and impression management: the influence of textual salience, mood and recall order on accounting judgements
Creators: name: Ding, Yike
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Impression management in accounting is defined as attempts by management to control and manipulate the impressions of users of accounting information by strategically disclosing information included in the narrative sections of annual reports. In this context, the human memory system plays a key role. Previous studies suggested that the human memory is influenced by biases that may result in distortions of judgement. The aim of this thesis is to examine the role of memory in accounting judgements and decision - making under the context of impression management. To achieve this aim, the thesis includes three papers. Paper one develops a framework outlining the human memory process and explains key biases and errors in memory that may facilitate further biases and errors in judgements and decision - making. Further, this framework distinguishes between online judgements (i.e., judgements made without memory retrieval) and memory - based judgements, proposing a relationship between the biases of the memory system and the two types of judgements. Paper two examines how on - line judgements are influenced by the interactions between the text and readers. Specifically, two biases from the memory system - namely, textual salience and personal mood - are examined as influential factors in the online judgements of investors. The findings suggest embedding textual salience (i.e., highlighted favourable cues) in a chairman's letter can easily distort non - professional investors' attention and judgement and readers' positive moods may further enhance their perceptions of the highlighted favourable cues. Paper three examines how the recall order of non - professional investors and the visual salience embedded in a chairman's letter may influence their memories of previously encoded accounting information and subsequent memory - based judgements. It pays special attention to the effect of memory on impression manipulations and suggests that embedding inappropriate salience (e.g., highlighting favourable cues) or strategically altering readers' recall order (e.g., recalling positive cues first) can easily distort investors' memory and memory - based impressions towards a positive view of a company.

description: Im Großglockner Gebiet fallen immer wieder wenige Millimeter dicke Ablagerungen auf dem anstehenden Festgestein am Wanderweg in Richtung Oberwalderhütte auf. Dieser Bereich wurde erst kürzlich im Rahmen des Gletscherrückganges freigelegt. Die Ablagerungen zeigen unterschiedliche Oberflächenausprägungen und räumlich unregelmäßige Verteilungen, daher wurden sie näher untersucht. Dünnschliffanalysen zeigten eine komplexe stratigraphische Architektur aus einer Abfolge von sehr dünnen unterschiedlichen Schichten, welche wahrscheinlich dem unterschiedlichen Abbau von organischem Material in verschiedenen Jahreszeiten entsprechen. Man erkennt bis jetzt unbeschriebene, sedimentäre Strukturen im Millimeterbereich. Die Altersbestimmung einer ausgewählten Probe ergibt ein C14-Alter von 43 000 Jahren. Dieses Alter entspricht der Hengelo Zwischenerwärmung in der Epoche der Würm Eiszeit. Das Ergebnis unterstützt die Annahme des biologischen Ursprungs der Probe.
description: During investigations in the Großglockner area, I found spots of few millimeters-thick mud layers, covering the bedrock at the way to “Oberwalderhütte”. These locations had been released from the ice very recently. Due to the different surfaces and irregular distribution, the layers attract attention and were therefore collected for further investigation. Created thin sections showed a complex stratigraphic architecture of a succession of very thin different layers, which possibly correspond to different seasons, indicating different decomposition of organic material. It reveals previously undescribed sedimentary structures and stratigraphic architectures at the mm-scale. Age determination of a selected sample indicate a C14 age of 43 000 years BP, with cor-responds to the Hengelo interstadial, a warm period interrupting Würm ice age. This result indicates for the biological origin of the laminae.

description: We present the detailed characterization of two extremely red submillimeter galaxies (SMGs), ASXDF1100.053.1 and 231.1, with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and the Jansky Very Large Array (VLA). These SMGs were selected originally using AzTEC at 1100 micron, and are observed by Herschel to be faint at 100--500 micron. Their (sub)millimeter colors are as red as -- or redder -- than known z>~5 SMGs; indeed, ASXDF1100.053.1 is redder than HFLS 3, which lies at z=6.3. They are also faint and red in the near-/mid-infrared: ~1 microJy at IRAC 4.5 micron and <0.2 microJy in the Ks filter. These SMGs are also faint in the radio waveband, where F_6GHz=4.5 microJy for ASXDF1100.053.1 and F_1.4GHz=28 microJy for ASXDF1100.231.1, suggestive of z=6.5^{+1.4}_{-1.1} and z=4.1^{+0.6}_{-0.7} for ASXDF1100.053.1 and 231.1, respectively. ASXDF1100.231.1 has a flux excess in the 3.6-micron filter, probably due to H$α$ emission at z=4--5. Derived properties of ASXDF1100.053.1 for z=5.5--7.5 and 231.1 for z=3.5--5.5 are as follows: their infrared luminosities are [6.5-7.4]x10^{12} and [4.2-4.5]x10^{12} L_sun; their stellar masses are [0.9-2]x10^{11} and [0.4-3]x10^{10} M_sun; their circularized half-light radii in the ALMA maps are ~1 and ~1.5x10^{13} L_sun kpc^{-2}, similar to values seen for local (U)LIRGs. These data suggest that ASXDF1100.053.1 and 231.1 are compact SMGs at z>~4 and can plausibly evolve into z>~3 compact quiescent galaxies.

description: Cities that have been created for thousands of years have different characteristics depending on the culture, environment, and race of each city. It is impossible to control such complex and diverse cities with a single rule or framework. Nor can there be any supreme rules for a good city. Therefore, it can be said that it is most important to clearly understand the characteristics of each city and to make a plan that emphasizes the strengths but complements the weaknesses.
The ultimate goal of urban redevelopment is to improve the functions of the city, provide a better environment, and improve the quality of life of city residents. Therefore, a more practical and active approach that reflects the characteristics of the city and combines social and physical approaches is needed.
Interactions among biopsychosocial predictors of somatic pain in Australian adolescents: a nationally representative survey

description: The prevalence of somatic pain (headache, stomach ache, backache) in late adolescence is similar to adulthood, positioning adolescent pain as a significant public health issue. Pain in adolescents is complex and multi-factorial in nature however, the predictors of somatic pain are not well understood. We conducted a secondary analysis of data collected via an online survey from The Australian Child Wellbeing Project (ACWP). Participants were Australian school children aged 8 - 14 years. Somatic pain items were measured using the Health Behaviour in School-Aged Children’s – Symptoms Checklist (HBSC-SCL). A somatic pain summary score was the aggregated headache, stomach ache and backache items (range 0 to15). Identification of the strongest predictors, moderation and direct and indirect paths were constructed to investigate the relationship between 16 different physical, psychological and social predictors and somatic pains stratified by gender. The sample was 4,572 adolescents (52% Girls). The average frequency score of somatic pain for adolescents was 6.0±2.9 (range0 to 15). Emotional state was identified as the most significant predictor associated with all somatic pain types, which is similar between both boys and girls. The current study also identified predictors relating to relationships with peers and school environment being moderately associated with somatic pains. We also identified that psychosocial factors such as bullying, support of friends and school satisfaction moderate the relationship between negative emotional state and somatic pains. Psychosocial factors largely operate through indirect pathways via emotional state in their association with somatic pain types. Conversely physical factors such as puberty were not associated with any somatic pain type. Overall somatic pain places a large burden on Australian boys and girls across Australia and appears to be predominantly associated with psychological and social predictors.

description: In this paper, the second in a series investigating FR II radio galaxies at low frequencies, we use LOFAR and VLA observations between 117 and 456 MHz in addition to archival data to determine the dynamics and energetics of two radio galaxies, 3C452 and 3C223, through fitting of spectral ageing models on small spatial scales. We provide improved measurements for the physical extent of the two sources, including a previously unknown low surface brightness extension to the northern lobe of 3C223, and revised energetics based on these values. We find spectral ages of $77.05^{+9.22}_{-8.74}$ and $84.96^{+15.02}_{-13.83}$ Myr for 3C452 and 3C223 respectively suggesting a characteristic advance speed for the lobes of around one per cent the speed of light. For 3C452 we show that, even for a magnetic field strength not assumed to be in equipartition, a disparity of factor of approximately 2 exists between the spectral age and that determined from a dynamical standpoint. We confirm that the injection index of both sources (as derived from the lobe emission) remains steeper than classically assumed values even when considered on well resolved scales at low frequencies, but find an unexpected sharp discontinuity between the spectrum of the hotspots and the surrounding lobe emission. We suggest that this discrepancy is due to the absorption of hotspot emission and/or non-homogeneous and additional acceleration mechanisms and, as such, hotspots should not be used in the determination of the underlying initial electron energy distribution.

description: Surface codes are among the best candidates to ensure the fault-tolerance of a quantum computer. In order to avoid the accumulation of errors during a computation, it is crucial to have at our disposal a fast decoding algorithm to quickly identify and correct errors as soon as they occur. We propose a linear-time maximum likelihood decoder for surface codes over the quantum erasure channel. This decoding algorithm for dealing with qubit loss is optimal both in terms of performance and speed.
Identification and analysis of operational and behavioural risks emerging and propagating in supply chains: a multi-method approach

description: The study of supply chain risks can be conducted from various perspectives, including types of risks and supply chain structure. First, from the aspect of the types of supply chain risks, the thesis investigates operational and behavioural risks both separately and in tandem. For operational risks, the proposed research model tackles a critical research problem in supply chain risk literature, which revolves around making a link between supply chain resilience and risk assessment. Outsourcing malfunctions and risks associated with them are analysed as a specific type of operational risk that is prevalent in modern supply chains. For behavioural risks, the risk attitudes of decision makers and their impact on inventory decisions are investigated. Another study, conducted at the intersection of behavioural and operational risks, shows the importance of considering both types of the aforementioned risks while assessing vulnerabilities in supply chains. Second, the research adopts the viewpoint of supply chain structure, investigating supply chains and their vulnerability to risks in forms of service supply networks, in particular in service triads. Most of the studies adopt a multi-method approach, proposing analytical models to assess supply chain vulnerability to risks and testing these models using surveys, interviews, archival data or behavioural experiments.

description: The collapse of state socialism and turn toward neoliberalism have led to a reduction of state support for industries, investments into science and military activities causing a structural crisis in the Russian North. Associated with the crises out-migration was aggravated by ageing and natural population decline (Eberstadt 2011) leading to depopulation and loss of social control over territories in the Russian Arctic except for the oil and gas provinces (Heleniak 2017). But the state policy has retained the declaration of power in the field of housing policy. Abandoned infrastructures and declining settlements are not solely ‘monuments’ of state socialism; they are also evidence of the current austerity, infrastructural underfunding, and the changing priorities of the Russian state (Bennett 2020). Moreover, depopulation, decay, and abandonment are not endemic to the Russian Far North but may be found in other parts of the Arctic (Heleniak, Turunen, Wang 2020) due to the novel reterritorialization of economic and political power that entails the ‘departure’ of capital and the state (Dzenovska 2020). Power is the same resource as infrastructure.Shrinkage and abandonment are spatially unequal (Mallah 2015). Also, power resources are unevenly distributed. In the current contribution, we focus on the distribution of power resources in a polarised urban space in the field of housing policy in the case of Arkhangelsk, Russia. State policy declares a monopoly on regulation in the field of housing policy. Against this background, we examine that practices in politics are differentiated and can be expressed by different actors through ‘nondecision’. This leads to a government acting as a situational tactic rather than a strategy. And the very notion of power is not limited to local government.
Resource allocation for relay assisted transmission in millimetre wave wireless systems

description: Conventional microwave bands below a frequency of 10 GHz are on the verge of saturation point. Thus, the global bandwidth shortage facing wireless carriers has motivated the exploration of the underutilized millimeter wave (mmWave) frequency spectrum for future broadband cellular communication networks. The mmWave frequency spectrum brings the possibility of developing the science for gigabit wireless networks. However, mmWave communication suffers from significant attenuation and shortage of multipath in NLOS transmissions and so mmWave wireless systems need to rely on LOS-propagation to achieve high data rates. In NLOS environments, relay techniques can compensate for severe path loss to improve the system throughput. This thesis investigates the use of directional antennas both at the transmitter and receiver and relays to compensate for severe path loss in NLOS environments. This thesis derives closed-form equations for the optimal allocation of antennas for beamforming to maximize capacity between a given source and destination in order to achieve high energy effciency.The use of Lagrange Multipliers is also introduced to study the optimal transmit power at the source along with the optimal number of transmit antennas to obtain maximum capacity between a source-destination pair.
Maxwell and the normal distribution: A colored story of probability, independence, and tendency toward equilibrium

description: We investigate Maxwell's attempt to justify the mathematical assumptions behind his 1860 Proposition IV according to which the velocity components of colliding particles follow the normal distribution. Contrary to the commonly held view we find that his molecular collision model plays a crucial role in reaching this conclusion, and that his model assumptions also permit inference to equalization of mean kinetic energies (temperatures), which is what he intended to prove in his discredited and widely ignored Proposition VI. If we take a charitable reading of his own proof of Proposition VI then it was Maxwell, and not Boltzmann, who gave the first proof of a tendency towards equilibrium, a sort of H-theorem. We also call attention to a potential conflation of notions of probabilistic and value independence in relevant prior works of his contemporaries and of his own, and argue that this conflation might have impacted his adoption of the suspect independence assumption of Proposition IV.

description: The formation of the gated communities within and outside the walled city and western suburbs of Vadodara is influenced by the socio-cultural and socio-economic determinants respectively. The period of post-liberalization, particularly from 1991 onwards has witnessed a shift in social and economic values in society at large which has disintegrated the social construct and the concept of nuclear families have crept into Indian society vastly affecting the way housing typologies are designed and catered. This idea of modernization has transformed these traditional forms of gated communities into modern housing largely impairing the coherent urban fabric of the city, leading to irreversible process.
Asymmetrical intermodulation distortion products due to bias networks in power amplifiers

description: Study of asymmetrical intermodulation distortion in power amplifiers and its implications for circuit designers has been a growing topic in the last decade. While design guidelines for biasing PAs such that this IMD is reduced have been established, the problem remains as the signal must travel from the power supply to the amplifier on the chip across a distance of copper. This creates a time delay in the signal, which causes changing impedances to be created at the two ends of the copper connection. These effects are often ignored by designers, such that when comparing the operation of the circuit in testing environments versus working in real life conditions, the intermodulation distortion specifications do not act as intended. This project revolved around looking at the change in impedance of the signal as it travels along this distance of copper, and design implications it might have on the asymmetrical intermodulation products created when the circuit operates in real life conditions.
