Finite geometries without the axiom of parallels

Henderson, Mason Edward (1964-04-30)

Among the geometries with n points on every line (with n an integer greater than one), those in which there are no parallels and those in which the axiom of parallels holds have been discussed (as finite projective an ...
Finite models of zero order propositional calculi

Applebee, Ralph Calvin (1971-10-22)

The main result of this dissertation provides rather general conditions under which extensions of zero order propositional calculi inherit the property of having a finite characteristic model. This result is applied t ...
First passage time distributions in electronic receivers

Kratzke, Albert William (1957-05-09)
Flows of anisotropic fluids induced by rotating disks

Knoshaug, Ronald Norman (1970-08-05)

The simplest existing properly invariant theory for anisotropic fluids, proposed by Ericksen, includes equations governing the nature of a preferred direction. An analysis of simple shearing motion given by Ericksen s ...
Fractional powers of the Laplacian with application to small amplitude water waves

Kiser, Terry (1983-08-03)

A free boundary value problem for the gas dynamic equations

Gerlach, Jurgen (1982-06-08)

We discuss a mathematical model arising from the following physical situation. We consider a gas-filled cylinder with a piston at one end whose motion is determined by the pressure of the gas within the cylinder and b ...
A free boundary value problem modeling streambed erosion

Helfenstein, Franz Hugo (1986-05-01)

Our purpose is twofold, to derive a 2-dimensional model of streambed erosion and to develop a solution procedure to solve the equations of our model. The flow domain, which varies in time, is bounded above by a free surf ...
A fundamental inequality in additive number theory and some related numerical functions

Daily, Mary Lou (1971-09-27)
The galois theory of iterated binomials

Danielson, Lynda Major (1995-04-27)
Gaussian random fields related to Levy's Brownian motion : representations and expansions

Rode, Erica S. (2013-02-25)

This dissertation examines properties and representations of several isotropic Gaussian random fields in the unit ball in d-dimensional Euclidean space. First we consider Lévy's Brownian motion. We use an integral repr ...
A general theory of density in additive number theory

Freedman, Allen Roy (1965-05-13)

See PDF for abstract.
Generalizations of the Watson transforms

Pandey, Nagendra Nath (1971-08-04)

The generalized Hankel transforms are studied in the first part of this thesis; these include the Watson transforms as a special case. For the validity of the reciprocal relations, a necessary and sufficient condition ...
Generalized convex bodies of revolution in n-dimensional space

Generalized measures of deformation-rates in non-Newtonian hydrodynamics and their applications to some flow problems

Sra, Kewal Singh (1967-05-12)

Integral representations for the generalized measures of deformation and deformation-rates have been obtained and suitable constitutive equations using these measures have been developed for viscoelastic materials, Th ...
Generalized powers

The generating function for three-line partitions

Gibbs phenomenon and lebesgue constants for the Quasi-Hausdorff means of double series

Matzdorff, Edward Max (1976-01-29)

The topic of summability methods has been studied by many although the name of G. H. Hardy and his classical work "Divergent Series" is best known. Almost all of the early work was done using single sequences or serie ...
Globally optimal Runge-Kutta methods

Toms, Ralph Marvin (1973-08-09)

A Runge-Kutta method has been developed to minimize the global error in the numerical solution of certain classes of differential equations problems. The distinguishing feature of the method is that the coefficients o ...
