    Questionnaire about Edmund Pond Shaw's service in World War I, 1917-1919, signed by Shaw on 26 February 1926.Questionnaire originally part of a survey of Norwich University alumni conducted by a “Norwich in the World War” committee consisting of Charles N. Barber (chairman), Carl V. Woodbury, K.R.B. Flint, and Gustaf A. Nelson. Data from these questionnaires may have been used in a chapter of "Vermont in the world war, 1917-1919" by Harold P.

    Hele-Shaw Flow Near Cusp Singularities

    No full text
    This thesis discusses the radial version of the Hele-Shaw problem. Different from the channel version, traveling-wave solutions do not exist in this version. Under algebraic potentials, in the case that the droplets expand, in finite time, cusps will appear on the boundary and classical solutions may not exist afterwards. Physicists have suggested that for (2p+1,2)-cusps, that near cusp singularities of Hele-Shaw flow, after scaling X, Y by some powers of time t respectively, the main part of Y(X, t) is a one-parameter family and does not depend on time t. They have also suggested that the solutions of the Hele-Shaw problem are connected with dispersionless KdV (dKdV) hierarchy. In this study, we rigorously proved that this is the case for (3,2)-cusps when the droplets are simply connected and the external potentials are algebraic. We gave exact solutions and showed that the main parts of the exact solutions are some special solutions of the dispersionless string equation. More over, borrowed from the physical paper\cite{Teo} with a little more details, we showed the arguments of how these special solutions are related to dKdV hierarchy

    Shaw and Feminisms On Stage and Off

    No full text
    When offstage actions contradict a playwright's onstage message, literary study gets messy. In his personal relationships, George Bernard Shaw was often ambivalent toward liberated women--surprisingly so, considering his reputation as one of the first champions of women's rights. His private attitudes sit uncomfortably beside his public philosophies that were so foundational to first-wave feminism. Here, Shaw's long-recognized influence on feminism is reexamined through the lens of twenty-first-century feminist thought as well as previously unpublished primary sources. New links appear between Shaw's writings and his gendered notions of physicality, pain, performance, nationalism, authorship, and politics. The book's archival material includes previously unpublished Shaw correspondence and excerpts from the works of his feminist playwright contemporaries. Shaw and Feminisms explores Shaw's strong female characters, his real-life involvement with women, and his continuing impact on theater and politics today.Cover -- Contents -- Foreword -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- PART I.
