Dynamic regulation of bacterial metabolic pathways using autonomous, pathway-independent control strategies
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)Metabolic engineering efforts have so far focused on strain optimization through careful metabolic modeling and tinkering with host genomes, through gene knockouts or knockins, to direct flux in desired channels. These ... -
Dynamic regulation of pathways by down-regulating competing enzymes
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)Microorganisms are promising hosts for the production of valuable chemicals, such as polymer and pharmaceutical precursors, fuel alternatives, flavors and fragrances. Achieving high yields of a product is often restricted ... -
The dynamic relationship between motivation, performance, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction: developing a model for a better motivation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)This study explores the dynamic relationship among motivation, work performance, organizational commitment, and job satisfaction as well as drivers of each of them. Main goal of this study is to understand what factors ... -
Dynamic resource allocation in CDMA cellular communications systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)Efficient resource utilization is the primary problem in cellular communication systems. In this thesis, we combine the main resource issues for CDMA systems, admission control and power control, in a single framework. The ... -
Dynamic resource allocation in WDM networks with optical bypass and waveband switching
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)In this thesis, we investigate network architecture from the twin perspectives of link resource allocation and node complexity in WDM optical networks Chapter 2 considers networks where the nodes have full wavelength ... -
Dynamic response analysis of spar buoy floating wind turbine systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)The importance of alternative energy development has been dramatically increased by the dwindling supplies of oil and gas, and our growing efforts to protect our environment. A variety of meaningful steps have been taken ... -
Dynamic response and maneuvering strategies of a hybrid autonomous underwater vehicle in hovering
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The Odyssey IV autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is the next generation of unmanned subsurface robots from the MIT Sea Grant AUV Laboratory. The Odyssey IV AUV has a novel propulsion system, which includes a pair of ... -
Dynamic response of 3D printed beams with damping layers
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)3D printers are a relatively new technology and they could be used in the future to 3D print structural components in buildings or bridges. The main advantages of using 3D printing would be the optimization of the structures. ... -
Dynamic response of graphite/epoxy plates subjected to impact loading
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1990) -
Dynamic response of human linearvection.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1976) -
Dynamic response of structures in layered soils.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1974) -
Dynamic response of the supercritical C0₂ Brayton recompression cycle to various system transients
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The supercritical carbon dioxide (SC0₂) power conversion system has been suggested for use with many of the Generation IV nuclear reactors. The SC0₂ cycle is highly attractive because of its low operating temperatures and ... -
The dynamic response of vascular endothelium to fluid shear stress in vitro
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1983) -
Dynamic responsiveness in the American states : legislators, constituents, and organized interests
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)An independent commission redrew California's electoral map after the 2012 redistricting cycle, inducing large, exogenous shocks to the composition and policy preferences of many districts. The first paper of the dissertation ... -
Dynamic retail assortment models with demand learning for seasonal consumer goods
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The main research question we explore in this dissertation is: How should a retailer modify its product assortment over time in order to maximize overall profits for a given selling season? Historically, long development, ... -
Dynamic Ridesharing under Travel Time Uncertainty: Passenger Preference and Optimal Assignment Methods
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2022-05)The increased prevalence and use of on-demand ridehailing services through the previous decade have had substantial impacts on urban transportation systems. These services offer convenient and flexible door-to-door ... -
Dynamic risk adjustment of prediction models using statistical process control methods
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Introduction. Models that represent mathematical relationships between clinical outcomes and their predictors are useful to the decision making process in patient care. Many models, such as the score of neonatal physiology ... -
