Does Our Perception Of God Influence Our Perception Of Subjectively "sinful" Behaviors?
(Psychology, 2010-07-19)
The current study investigated the influence of different perceptions of God (i.e., loving vs. punishing) on participants' attitudes towards subjectively "sinful" behaviors. Participants in the current study were 158 ...
Improved Classification In Flat Networks
(Electrical Engineering, 2010-07-19)
It is shown that optimal flat networks can be found as solutions to least squares problems. An algorithm is presented to improve existing classifier training methods by changing the desired outputs. The algorithm is based ...
Adaptive Dynamic Programming For High-dimensional, Multicollinear State Spaces
(Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering, 2013-03-20)
Dynamic programming (DP) is a mathematical programming method for optimizing a system changing over time and has been used to solve multi-stage optimization problems in manufacturing systems, environmental engineering, and ...
NEOLIBERAL PARK GOVERNANCE REGIMES AND THE RIGHT TO THE CITY: A CRITICAL ASSESSMENT OF SOCIAL INCLUSION IN DOWNTOWN DALLAS SIGNATURE PARKS
(2021-08-03)
Privatization has been frequently criticized for diminishing the inclusiveness of public space. This dissertation examines whether private signature parks are more exclusive than their public counterparts utilizing Lefebvre’s ...
AMORPHOUS SILICA BASED BIOMATERIALS FOR MUSCULOSKELETAL TISSUE REGENERATION APPLICATIONS
(2021-08-02)
Musculoskeletal (MSK) injury includes any injuries that affect the bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons, or nerves. Open bone fracture is one of the common types of MSK traumatic injuries which results in not only bone ...
No Utopia Is An Island: The Ecosystem Of Utopias In Paul Mcauley's Quiet War Saga
(English, 2013-03-20)
In this thesis, I argue that a new, ambitious variety of literary utopia, which I call an ecosystem utopia, has developed over the past forty years, chiefly in science fiction and fantasy. My primary examples are Paul ...
Effect Of Additive Morphology & Chemistry On Wear & Friction Of Greases Under Spectrum Loading
(Materials Science & Engineering, 12-10-2012)
The primary focus of grease development is to minimize friction and improve on wear and load bearing capacity. Traditional method to evaluate wear behavior of grease is based on ASTM D2266 which evaluates the performance ...
New conductometric detection methods for sensitive ion chromatographic measurement of weak electrolytes
(2015-11-24)
Since Suppressed conductometric anion chromatography (SCAC) was proposed in the mid-1970s, SCAC has become a widely used tool for the determination of anion species in aqueous samples. Its application ranges from trace ...

(2021-08-02)
The role of a firm’s in-house top legal executives has become more prominent in recent years due to regulatory changes, increasing litigation, and growing risk and liability in the corporate world. Top legal executives act ...
Enhanced Mechanical Stability Of Interlayer Dielectrics With Self-organized Molecular Pores
(Materials Science & Engineering, 2015)
In order to reduce resistance-capacitance delays in interconnect structures, ultralow-k films are used as interlayer dielectric materials. In most cases the preferred method to achieve the lower dielectric constant is the ...
