This thesis deals with applications of Lie symmetries in differential geometry and dynamical systems. The first chapter of the thesis studies the singular reduction of symmetries of cosphere bundles, the conservation properties of contact systems and their ...
The effect of sizing on bending rigidity in fibre bundles was investigated. Particular attention was paid to the effect of film formers and anti-static agents on the behaviour of glass fibre bundles under forced packing conditions. The bending rigidity of ...
The use of variable-focal-length (VFL) microlenses can provide a way to axially scan the foci across a sample by electronic control. We demonstrate an approach to coupling VFL microlenses individually to a fiber bundle as a way to create a high-throughput ...
The parameters affecting the packing stress of fiber mats for melt impregnation, resin transfer molding and compression molding are systematically investigated. An analytical equation based on local bending of fibers, which was previously derived for non-i ...
The correlation between sizing formulation, bundle mechanical characteristics, and bundle-matrix static and dynamic interactions are investigated. Two glass-fiber sizing formulations are considered, one containing polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) and the other pol ...
Let A be a C*-algebra, and let X be a Banach A-bimodule. Johnson [B. E. Johnson, 'Local derivations on C*-algebras are derivations', Trans. Amer Math. Soc. 353 (2000), 313-325] showed that local derivations from A into X are derivations. We extend this con ...
A selection of aspects of the theory of bounded cohomology is presented. The emphasis is on questions motivating the use of that theory as well as on some concrete issues sugested by its study. Specific topics include rigidity, bounds on characteristic cla ...
A. Baker has constructed certain sequences of cohomology theories which interpolate between the Johnson-Wilson and the Morava K-theories. We realize the representing sequences of spectra as sequences of MU-algebras. Starting with the fact that the spectra ...
An anisotropic structured fixed-bed divided into 2 reactor parts is a bundle reactor consisting of fiber-bundle. The fiber-bundle ordered in the flow direction are formed from filaments; the diam. of the fiber-bundle is smaller than its length and bigger t ...

In this paper we determine the motivic class---in particular, the weight polynomial and conjecturally the Poincaré polynomial---of the open de Rham space, defined and studied by Boalch, of certain moduli of irregular meromorphic connections on the trivial ...
