    ABOUT University Singers is the premier large choral ensemble on campus, with a choral tradition at the University of Oregon extending back to 1945. The University Singers perform choral music from all periods and styles, with concerts both on and off campus. Members are experienced singers representing a wide variety of majors from across campus. The University Singers frequently have the opportunity to perform with instrumental ensembles such as the University Symphony Orchestra, the Oregon Wind Ensemble, and the Eugene Symphony Orchestra. The intensive training provided by the choral program complements the core curriculum of the School of Music and Dance, and balances the broad spectrum of liberal arts disciplines offered at the University of Oregon.

  • Regge Finite Elements with Applications in Solid Mechanics and Relativity
    Regge Finite Elements with Applications in Solid Mechanics and Relativity A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Lizao Li IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF Doctor of Philosophy Advisor: Prof. Douglas N. Arnold May 2018 © Lizao Li 2018 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Acknowledgements I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my advisor Prof. Douglas Arnold, who taught me how to be a mathematician: diligence in thought and clarity in communication (I am still struggling with both). I am also grateful for his continuous guidance, help, support, and encouragement throughout my graduate study and the writing of this thesis. i Abstract This thesis proposes a new family of finite elements, called generalized Regge finite el- ements, for discretizing symmetric matrix-valued functions and symmetric 2-tensor fields. We demonstrate its effectiveness for applications in computational geometry, mathemati- cal physics, and solid mechanics. Generalized Regge finite elements are inspired by Tullio Regge’s pioneering work on discretizing Einstein’s theory of general relativity. We analyze why current discretization schemes based on Regge’s original ideas fail and point out new directions which combine Regge’s geometric insight with the successful framework of finite element analysis. In particular, we derive well-posed linear model problems from general relativity and propose discretizations based on generalized Regge finite elements. While the first part of the thesis generalizes Regge’s initial proposal and enlarges its scope to many other applications outside relativity, the second part of this thesis represents the initial steps towards a stable structure-preserving discretization of the Einstein’s field equation.

First and foremost, I must acknowledge Dr. Robert S. Hatten, former professor of music theory at Indiana University and current professor of music theory at University of Texas. Dr. Hatten’s seminar “Music and the Poetic Text” sparked my interest in the relationship between poetic texts and vocal music and provided the impetus for this document. He inspired me to experience, analyze, and understand vocal music in a completely new way. I must also thank the members of my document committee. I am deeply indebted to my research director, Dr. Aaron Travers, and my chairperson, Dr. Carmen-Helena Téllez, for their efforts and willingness to lead me through this process of research, analysis, and writing. I also thank Dr. Blair Johnston and Dr. William Jon Gray for their contributions through insightful comments, observations, and suggestions. Next, I would like to express my gratitude for the support and encouragement offered by my mentors and friends.

The carillon is located in Rush Rhees Library on the University of Rochester campus. Students with keyboard background have proven they can learn carillon quickly, usually making rapid progress through a semester lesson series, starting on the practice carillon and progressing to playing the bells in tower. Our carillon is a 50 bell instrument played from a baton and pedal console from the desk of using hands and feet. Any carillon is defined as a chromatic, touch sensitive tuned bell instrument in chromatic sequence numbered above 23 bells. Music notation looks similar to DORIS piano music, in both treble and bass clef. This carillon tour is intended to educate our students, acquainting them with this world culture instrument. The tour is also meant to AMAN introduce the carillon to new players from our community. Adjunct Faculty, carillon Carillons are located in many of the universities of North American, including Ivy League and University of Rochester other top level achievement schools. Can you imagine the interview talking points for River Campus Music Department students announcing they play carillon to admissions officials of such schools? For our adult [email protected] community members, the carillon offers a fun “hands on” way to serve the campus community on a public instrument. Carillons need intergenerational carillon players.

    Regge Calculus as a Numerical Approach to General Relativity by Parandis Khavari A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics University of Toronto Copyright c 2009 by Parandis Khavari Abstract Regge Calculus as a Numerical Approach to General Relativity Parandis Khavari Doctor of Philosophy Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics University of Toronto 2009 A (3+1)-evolutionary method in the framework of Regge Calculus, known as “Paral- lelisable Implicit Evolutionary Scheme”, is analysed and revised so that it accounts for causality. Furthermore, the ambiguities associated with the notion of time in this evolu- tionary scheme are addressed and a solution to resolving such ambiguities is presented. The revised algorithm is then numerically tested and shown to produce the desirable results and indeed to resolve a problem previously faced upon implementing this scheme. An important issue that has been overlooked in “Parallelisable Implicit Evolutionary Scheme” was the restrictions on the choice of edge lengths used to build the space-time lattice as it evolves in time. It is essential to know what inequalities must hold between the edges of a 4-dimensional simplex, used to construct a space-time, so that the geom- etry inside the simplex is Minkowskian. The only known inequality on the Minkowski plane is the “Reverse Triangle Inequality” which holds between the edges of a triangle constructed only from space-like edges. However, a triangle, on the Minkowski plane, can be built from a combination of time-like, space-like or null edges. Part of this thesis is concerned with deriving a number of inequalities that must hold between the edges of mixed triangles.
