The heavily distorting channels limit the use of linear equalizers and the use of the nonlinear equalizers becomes admissible. Most nonlinear equalizers, e.g. Voltera type, are usually too complicated to meet real-time processing demands. Neural networks-based equalizers, especi…

The henipaviruses, represented by Nipah virus (NiV) and Hendra virus (HeV), are emerging zoonotic paramyxoviruses responsible for repeated outbreaks in humans and animals associated with high morbidity and mortality in Australia, Southeast Asia, India and Bangladesh. Several spe…
A series of model supported WO3 catalysts were synthesized on preformed Al2O3, Nb2O5, TiO 2 and ZrO2 supports by impregnation of aqueous ammonium metatungstate, (NH4)10W12O41·5H2 O. The molecular and electronic structures of the supported tungsten oxide phases were determined wi…
The high temperature superconductivity in cuprates is realized by off-stoichiometric doping. In addition to contributing carriers to the CuO2 planes, the dopants inherently introduce local disorder into the systems. Using the X-ray diffuse scattering technique, we studied the do…
E. F. Scott once called Hebrews "the riddle of the New Testament," considering how many basic questions the letter leaves open (e.g., the identity of its author, occasion, and audience, et al.). Sometime later, G. W. Buchanan called Hebrews a "homiletical midrash on Ps 110" in l…
As the primary products of starch digestion by pancreatic α-amylase, maltooligosaccharides (including maltose) are the main substrates for the α-glucosidases at the intestinal brush border. Here, maltose was shown to induce the formation of a higher molecular weight (HMW) sucras…
The purpose of this study was to document the experiences of African-born women faculty and administrators at colleges and universities in the United States. The study explored the factors that motivated African-born women to immigrate to and extend their stay in the United Stat…
This thesis investigates the study of subtractive architecture, It examines sight condition to inspire a unique design with a sustainable structure in a harsh environment. The idea of subtractive architecture through a geological mass refers back two thousand years ago, the Naba…
This project examines a variety of documentary evidence preserved on papyrus in order to discern the nature of family obligations and negotiations for mutual support in Roman Egypt (ca. 30 BC – 4 th c. AD). Modern scholarship on ancient families has largely focused on literary, …
Rhythmic Proportions is a story about shifting the balance between logical structures and artistic freedoms. Manifested through paintings and found objects from a piano, my thesis negotiates a series of missions through an evolution of creative methodology in the interest of dis…
This dissertation argues that Book IV of the canonical Hebrew Psalter (Pss 90-106) sustains the hope that God will keep his covenant with David by installing a future king from David's line. Chapter 1 introduces the debate, states the thesis, surveys the history of psalmic inter…
In most design problems, there are multiple schemas, or ways or orienting and organizing the knowledge content in the problem domain, and which by extension defines the range and bearing of solutions. This dissertation examines the properties of individual and clusters of schema…
Limnology is the study of the structural and functional interrelationships of organisms of inland waters as they are affected by their dynamic physical, chemical, and biotic environments.
« Molecular biology is undergoing exponential growth in both the volume and complexity of biological data. This book offers the first comprehensive overview of data mining, preprocessing, postprocessing, and storage for biological data. It surveys the latest approaches and techn…
