The onset of Marangoni convection for evaporating liquids Brendan D. MacDonald Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering University of Toronto 2012 The stability of evaporating liquids is examined. The geometries investigated are semiinfinite liquid sheets, bounded liquid sheets, sessile droplets, and funnels. Stability parameters are generated to charact...

Dialgebras are a generalization of associative algebras which gives rise to Leibniz algebras instead of Lie algebras. In this paper we deene the dialgebra (co)homology with coeecients, recovering, for constant coeecients, the natural bar homology of dialgebras introduced by J.-L. Loday in L6] and denoted by HY. We show that the homology HY has the main expected properties: it is a derived funct...

To investigate the role of tachysterol in the photophysical/photochemical regulation of vitamin D photosynthesis, we studied its electronic absorption properties and excited state dynamics using time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT), second-order approximate coupled cluster theory (CC2), and non-adiabatic surface hopping molecular dynamics in the gas phase. In excellent agreement wit...

DEVELOPMENT NARRATIVES: ACTOR-NETWORK THEORY AND PANAMANIAN AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT POLICY By Gerad D. Middendorf This dissertation proposes a critical analysis of three major theoretical approaches to explaining development: material determinist, social realist and discursive. Adherents to each of these approaches look either primarily to the material (e.g., nature, geography, technology), th...

When the conditions of a competitive market are simulated in a game, the number of people deciding to enter each round approaches the game-theoretic equilibrium after a few rounds. This occurs even when there is no communication between players, and the only feedback on each round relates to the number of entrants. However, in real markets entry is generally too high, resulting in too many star...

To investigate the nature of the complex formed between DXA and Miracil D (l-diethylaminoethylamino-4-methyl-lOthiaxanthenone, Lucanthone, Nilodin), a series of derivatives of this carcinostatic, schistosomicidal, and bacteriostatic com pound have been examined in three test systems: the growth of intact Bacillus subtilis, the heat-denaturation profile of na tive DNA, and the subcellular DNA-di...
