Fractional modelling of rechargeable batteries
(The University of Waikato, 2021)To develop a compact battery model, many authors begin by measuring the impedance of a battery over a frequency range of interest. Most of the models in the literature are either Thevenin-style or Randles’ model consisting ... -
Fractionation of nitrogen isotopes by animals: a further complication to the use of variations in the natural abundance of ¹⁵N for tracer studies
(Cambridge University Press, 1978)A study of the fractionation of nitrogen isotopes in the diet by cattle is described and the results discussed. Compared with the diet, urine had a lower ratio of ¹⁵N to ¹⁴N, but faeces, blood and milk all had a higher ... -
Frag[Men]ted: Representations of Masculinity in David Foster Wallace's Brief Interviews with Hideous Men and Chuck Palahniuk's Fight Club
(University of Waikato, 2017)Supported by a selection of original creative works, this thesis will undertake a comparative study of the ways in which masculinity is represented in David Foster Wallace’s Brief Interviews with Hideous Men and Chuck ... -
Fragmentation
(Bloomsbury Publishing, 2021)Future Theory is built around five key concepts – boundaries, organization, rupture, novelty, futurity – examined by leading international thinkers to build a vision of how theory can be applied to a constantly shifting world. -
Fragmentation and Restoration: Generational Legacies of 21st Century Māori
(The University of Waikato, 2009)The content of this thesis is premised on a reflexive examination of some historical juxtapositions culminating in critical aspects of being Māori in the twenty first century and how such aspects have informed contemporary ... -
Fragmentation pathways of [Re₂(μ-OR)₃(CO)₆]– (R = H, Me) and ligand exchange reactions with oxygen donor ligands, investigated by electrospray mass spectrometry
(ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY, 2000)The rhenium hydroxy and methoxy carbonyl complexes [Re₂(μOR)₃(CO)₆]⁻ (R = H or Me) have been studied by negative-ion electrospray mass spectrometry (ESMS). The complexes undergo facile exchange reactions with protic ... -
Framework and proofs for synthesis of least restrictive controllable supervisors for extended finite-state machines with variable abstraction
(Department of Computer Science, The University of Waikato, 2018)This working paper presents an algorithm that combines modular synthesis for extended finite-state machines (EFSM) with abstraction of variables by symbolic manipulation, in order to compute least restrictive controllable ... -
A framework for bibliographic recommendation system based on Heterogeneous Retrieval Model?
(The University of Waikato, 2018)In this paper, we propose an architectural framework for recommending heterogeneous resources in a digital library.We present an outline of our proposed recommendation framework, and discuss brie its performance over ... -
A Framework for collaborative writing with recording and post-meeting retrieval capabilities
(IEEE Computer Society, 2004)From a HCI perspective, elucidating and supporting the context in which collaboration takes place is key to implementing successful collaborative systems. Synchronous collaborative writing usually takes place in contexts ... -
A framework for compositional nonblocking verification of extended finite-state machines
(Springer, 2016-03-01)This paper presents a framework for compositional nonblocking verification of discrete event systems modelled as extended finite-state machines (EFSM). Previous results are improved to consider general conflict-equivalence ... -
A Framework for Compositional Synthesis of Modular Nonblocking Supervisors
(IEEE, 2014)This paper describes a framework for compositional supervisor synthesis, which is applicable to all discrete event systems modeled as a set of deterministic automata. Compositional synthesis exploits the modular structure ... -
A framework for developing and implementing an online learning community
(Distance Education Association of New Zealand, 2011)Developing online learning communities is a promising pedagogical approach in online learning contexts for adult tertiary learners, but it is no easy task. Understanding how learning communities are formed and evaluating ... -
A framework for estimating crime location choice based on awareness space
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020)This paper extends Crime Pattern Theory, proposing a theoretical framework which aims to explain how offenders’ previous routine activity locations influence their future offence locations. The framework draws on studies ... -
Framework for evaluating management interventions for water-quality improvement across multiple agents
(Elsevier, 2011)It is difficult to accurately predict the impacts of policies for control of nonpoint-source pollution because analytical frameworks incorporating agent heterogeneity are rare. This paper overcomes this limitation through ... -
A framework for mixed reality free-choice, self-determined learning
(Association for Learning Technology, 2020)In this article, we present a theoretical framework for mixed reality (MR/XR) self-determined learning to enhance ecological literacy in free-choice educational settings. The framework emerged from a research study in New ... -
Framework thinking, subject thinking and 'Taiwan-ness' in environmental education
(2011)In the 1998 Taiwanese national curriculum revision, environmental education was one of six new “Important Issues”. To some early observers, the generic “framework” sections of this 1998 curriculum (Aims, Goals, Core ... -
Framing audience prefigurations of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey: The roles of fandom, politics and idealised intertexts
(2014)Audiences for blockbuster event-film sequels and adaptations often formulate highly developed expectations, motivations, understandings and opinions well before the films are released. A range of intertextual and paratextual ... -
Framing New Zealand: How international media project the images of Aotearoa
(The University of Waikato, 2006)Travel stories (travelogues) are a potentially important source through which people can understand different cultures. They could be consulted as frames of reference for immediate or future travel decisions. Consequently, ... -
‘Framing the project’ of international human rights law: Reflections on the dysfunctional ‘family’ of the Universal Declaration
(Cambridge University Press, 2012)The task of ‘framing the project’ of international human rights law is daunting to say the least. First, there is the sheer enormity and complexity of the international human rights law ‘project’: adequately mapping the ... -
Fraternity and Equality
(Cambridge, 2013)Is there a connection between the values of fraternity and outcome equality? Is inequality at odds with fraternity? There are reasons to doubt that it is. First, fraternity requires us to want our ‘brothers’ and ‘sisters’ ...
