  • Fundamental studies of atomic diffusion by computer simulation of atomic processes on the giga event scale and multiple PC's in parallel

    Creator:
    Zhang, Qiongshan
    Abstract:
    The classic treatment of diffusion by Einstein and by Chandrasekhar assumed conservative boundary conditions; mobile species were neither created nor destroyed on the sample surface. It is normal to assume that vacancies and host interstitials are created and annihilated on incoherent interfaces or free surfaces; i.e., these are assumed to...

  • Design and simulation of a model for lymphocyte flow through single lymphnodes

    Creator:
    Heilig, Thomas
    Abstract:
    A compartmental model of lymphocyte circulation through a lymphnode is derived and simulated. The purpose of the model is to analyze experimental data and in turn design experimental plans from the analysis in order to obtain sufficient data for the organ-distributed immune response. The model will be used to predict...

  • Compartmental analysis of the immune system

    Creator:
    Lawrence, Karen
    Abstract:
    A compartmental model of the immune system is simulated. Chapter I discusses the importance of such a model, reviews past immune system models, and summaries the immunological theory the model is based upon. In Chapter II, the compartmental representation of the immune system is developed from immunological and physiological theory....

  • A tunable duty-cycle-controlled switched-R-MOSFET-C CMOS filter for low-voltage and high-linearity applications

    Creator:
    Xiao, Ying
    Abstract:
    A novel switched-R-MOSFET-C input branch is proposed for low-voltage and high-linearity applications. The tunability is achieved by varying the clock duty cycle using an automatic tuning circuit. This tuning method does not involve a change in gate voltage, and is therefore particularly suitable for low-voltage applications. The advantages of the...

  • Multiple-fault detection in iterative arrays

    Creator:
    Ramamurti, Chandramouli
    Abstract:
    With the advent of LSI, iterative forms of realization of digital systems are becoming increasingly popular with system designers. Many problems occurring in digital computer design render themselves suitable for iterative realization. These include adders, arithmetic logic units, coding and decoding circuits and so on. Fault-free functioning of such systems...

  • A model of the likelihood of stimulation or tolerance of the B lymphocyte

    Creator:
    Peterson, Patricia A.
    Abstract:
    The B lymphocyte is the immune cell responsible for the production of antibodies. It has receptor molecules on its surface which bind to a molecule known as an antigen. The antigen either stimulates the cell to produce antibodies or tolerizes it so that it is unable to produce antibodies. It...

  • Nonlinear control of high performance aircraft

    Creator:
    Bean, Ronnie A.
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents the design of various controllers for a highly maneuverable, high performance aircraft, namely the modified F-18. The aircraft was required to perform high angle-of-attack maneuvers, for which the aircraft behaves in as a highly nonlinear system. An adaptive PID controller was used to control the aircraft through...

  • Identification of stochastic systems with random parameters with particular reference to the recirculating lymphocytes in the immune system

    Creator:
    Farooqi, Zarreen H. H.
    Abstract:
    This thesis is composed of four parts: i) system description, ii) model development, iii) parameter estimation, and iv) validation. The natural system used here is an aspect of the immune system, namely, the distribution of recirculating lymphocytes in various organs throughout the body. This distribution gains importance because: i) it...

    Abstract:
    It has been established that bilinear models occur frequently in nature and offer some important advantages from the standpoint. of controllability, optimization and modeling. The estimation of bilinear systeim models from the Measurements of input-output data are discussed. In the first approach a parametric model of a discrete-time linear system...
