  • A Partial Proof of Bertrand's Theorem

    Creator:
    Musgrove, John F.
    Abstract:
    In this paper, we provide a thorough proof of most of Bertrand's Theorem. Using Arnold's book "Mathematical methods of classical mechanics" as a backbone and calculus methods demonstrated by Jovanović in his article "A note on the proof of Bertrand's theorem," we show that for masses in a central field...

  • Turn-Taking in Face-to-Face Conversations: A Proposed Theory of Chair Swiveling

    Creator:
    Smith, Lyshuand R.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this thesis is to propose swiveling behavior as a potential speech transitioning device and to discuss the methodology behind qualitative and quantitative analysis of swivels in relation to subjects’ partners. Due to the impacts of gaze and body orientation direction on speech transitioning, it is deduced that,...

  • Change in Hydraulic Conductivity of Expansive Soils

    Creator:
    Hesseltine, Johnathon
    Abstract:
    Swelling soils cause millions of dollars of damage to buildings every year in the Unites States alone. One essential piece to understanding these soils is to understand how water moves through them. Hydraulic conductivity is a measure of how easily water flows through a soil. Currently, the most common method...
