    Collisional dynamics of macroscopic particles in a viscous fluid Thesis by Gustavo Joseph In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy California Institute of Technology Pasadena, California (Defended May ) ii © Gustavo Joseph All Rights Reserved iii Acknowledgements First of all, I would like to thank Prof. Melany L. Hunt, my academic adviser during my stay at Caltech. Throughout the years she has been a source of invaluable wisdom, support, and friendship. For all her encouragement and guidance, I owe her a debt of gratitude. I am also grateful to Dr. José Roberto Zenit Camacho, from whom I learned a simple way of looking at problems in order to extract non-trivial answers. From day one to D-day, he emphasized the importance of asking more questions than I wanted answered, and of letting the answers inspire new questions. As a surrogate adviser and critical inquisitor, Prof. Christopher E. Brennen always found the time and energy to encourage me to press on. He has been an endless font of knowledge and enthusiasm. Together with the aforementioned people, Prof. John F. Brady and Prof. Guruswami Ravichandran took time to review my Ph.D. dissertation and to serve on the committee. For their time and their insightful comments I remain ever thankful. Back in I was going from door to door in the Thomas Laboratory, trying to find a glass paperweight that could be used as a thick target wall for my experiments. Prof. Paul C. Jennings had on a bookshelf a block of Zerodur—a piece of mirror from the W.

  • „Bitstream“ Fonts
    Key to the „Bitstream“ Fonts The history of typefaces is the history of forgeries. One of the greatest forgers of the 20th century was Matthew Carter. The Bitstream website (http://www.myfonts.com) describes him as follows: Matthew Carter of United Kingdom. Born: 1937 Son of Harry Carter, Royal Designer for Industry, contemporary British type designer and ultimate craftsman, trained as a punchcutter at Enschedé by Paul Rädisch, responsible for Crosfield's typographic program in the early 1960s, Mergenthaler Linotype's house designer 1965-1981. Carter co-founded Bitstream with Mike Parker in 1981. In 1991 he left Bitstream to form Carter & Cone with Cherie Cone. In 1997 he was awarded the TDC Medal, the award from the Type Directors Club presented to those „who have made significant contributions to the life, art, and craft of typography“. Carter’s „significant contribution to the life, art, and craft of typography“ consisted of forging the Linotype typeface collection. Carter can be characterized as a split personality. On the one hand, he has designed several original typefaces. On the other hand, he has forged hundreds of fonts. The following lists reveal that ca. 90% of the „Bitstream“ fonts are forgeries of the fonts contained in the catalog „LinoTypeCollection 1987“ („Mergenthaler Type Library“), i.e. the „Bitstream“ fonts are „nefarious evil knock-off clones“ (Bruno Steinert) of fonts sold by Linotype in the mid-1980s.1 „L“ in the following lists denotes that the font is contained in the „LinoTypeCollection 1987“. In the mid-1980s, the Linotype library comprised hundreds of typefaces with a total of 1700 fonts.

Internationale boekkunst in de universiteitsbibliotheek Nijmegen Catalogus van een bijzondere collectie samengesteld door Robert Arpots Inleiding De verzameling Verbeek “Verder is dit jaar binnengekomen het legaat van mr. Verbeek uit Veghel” Aldus het “Jaarverslag van de bibliotheek” in het Jaarboek Katholieke Universiteit 1966-1967. Summierder kan het haast niet, terwijl de verslaglegger hier toch doelt op een van de aardigste aanwinsten van dat jaar. Wie was deze Verbeek? Eduard D.H.M. Verbeek werd geboren op zondag 8 april 1894, in Veghel, als zoon van de chirurg en dorpsdokter dr. Joannes H.H. Verbeek (1863-1950) en Jonkvrouwe Maria Th.H. de Kuyper (1868-1932), dochter van een notaris, die in juli 1891 in het huwelijk waren getreden. 1 Zijn oudste broer, Alphons Verbeek (1893), gepromoveerd in de geneeskunde in Groningen en chirurg in Eindhoven, publiceerde in 1951 zijn jeugdherinneringen onder de titel Dorp in de Meierij2. Het boek, dat de periode van rond de eeuwwisseling tot 1918 bestrijkt, biedt een aardig beeld van de gelukkige jeugdjaren van de broertjes en zusjes Verbeek. Zij groeiden op in Huize Rustplaats in een niet onbemiddeld gezin, met verschillende dienstmeisjes die toen nog Servantes werden genoemd en die onder meer hielpen bij het aan- en uitkleden van de kinderen. “Mijn moeder”, aldus de auteur, “was zacht en beminnelijk”.

  • The Free UCS Outline Fonts Project — an Attempt to Create a Global Font
    The Free UCS Outline Fonts Project — an Attempt to Create a Global Font Primož Peterlin University of Ljubljana Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Biophysics Lipicevaˇ 2, SI-1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia [email protected] http://biofiz.mf.uni-lj.si/~peterlin/ Abstract In February 2002, the Free UCS (Universal Character Set) Outline Fonts project (http:// savannah.gnu.org/projects/freefont/) was started. Exercising the open-source approach, its aim is to provide a set of free Times-, Helvetica- and Courier-lookalikes available in the Open- Type format, and progressively cover the complete ISO 10646/Unicode range. In this stage of the project, we focus mainly on two areas: collecting existing fonts that are both typographically and license-wise (i.e., GNU GPL) compatible and can be included to cover certain parts of the charac- ter set, and patching up smaller areas that are not yet covered. Planned future activities involve ty- pographic refinement, extending kerning information beyond the basic Latin area, including True- Type hinting instructions, and facilitating the usage of fonts with various applications, including the TEX/Ω typesetting system. Résumé Le projet de fontes vectorielles libres pour UCS (http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/ freefont/) a démarré en février 2002. À travers l’Open Source, le but de ce projet est de fournir un ensemble de clones libres de Times, Helvetica et Courier, disponibles dans le format Open- Type, et couvrant progressivement l’ensemble des caractères d’ISO 10646/Unicode. À ce stage du projet nous nous concentrons sur deux domaines : la collection de fontes existantes qui soient compatibles avec notre projet, aussi bien du point de vue typographique que du point de vue de la licence (GNU GPL), qui puissent être intégrées pour couvrir certaines parties de l’ensemble de caractères ; et d’autre part, faire des ajouts de petites régions qui n’ont pas encore été couvertes.
