Fri, 30 Oct 2009 15:49:24 GMT Impressions from the Grave by Judith Trainor (Fri, Nov 20) http://www.socialweb.net/Clients/WPI/index.lasso?id=99906 http://www.socialweb.net/Clients/WPI/index.lasso?id=99906#2009-11-20-00:00:00 lbrueck@wpi.edu WPI: George C. Gordon Library, Class of '41 Gallery, 3rd floor, 100 Institute Road, Worcester, MA Worcester Polytechnic Institute’s (WPI) Gordon Library Class of ’41 Gallery will feature an exhibit for the Halloween season on New England gravestones. On display will be gravestone rubbings created with foil and on paper by Judith Trainor. In her work, Trainor captures the imagery of death including skulls, skeletons, hourglasses, winged cherubs, birds and flowers. The rubbings are done with light-weight foil to show the depth of carving and design detail. Trainor has taken this form of gravestone rubbing in new directions by using a variety of foils, finishes, rubbing techniques, and framing methods and applying them to different types of gravestones. Most of the impressions were done in the early cemeteries of Massachusetts but there are some from other New England states and New York. Through her work Trainor strives to interest people in exploring and preserving local burying grounds. There will be an artist's reception on October 29, 4-6 p.m. Through Friday, Dec 18. Tue, 06 Oct 2009 15:41:49 GMT Hasanjan Sayit (WPI) - On the Existence of Consistent Price Systems (Fri, Nov 20) http://www.socialweb.net/Clients/WPI/index.lasso?id=100362 http://www.socialweb.net/Clients/WPI/index.lasso?id=100362#2009-11-20-11:00:00 ma-chair@wpi.edu 11:00 AM-12:00 PM, WPI: Stratton Hall, 203, 100 Institute Road, Worcester, MA ABSTRACT: In a recent paper by Guasoni, Rasonyi, and Schachermayer, the conditional full support (CFS) condition was introduced as a sufficient condition for the existence of consistent price systems (CPSs). In this note, we give a weaker sufficient condition for a CPS to exist. We use this condition to describe a mechanism to construct models with CPSs. Using this mechanism we give two examples that admit CPSs but do not have the CFS property.

A major roadblock in translating scaffold-based regenerative medicine into clinical practice is the lack of materials combining tissue-like mechanical and biochemical properties with desirable surgical handling characteristics to enable their safe delivery and integration with target tissue. Nanostructured material design platform provides a unique opportunity to integrate physical, biochemical, and mechanical signals for complex regenerative medicine applications. In this talk, I will 1) discuss the design and application of an elastomeric osteoconductive nanocomposite for the repair of volumetric bone loss, and 2) highlight a nanoparticle-mediated strategy towards high-performance shape memory polymer implants.

The recent investigations of my research group have explored the extent to which these characteristics are susceptible to the influence of local noise sources and how their degradation properties can differ from that of decoherence arising from that very same mechanism. In particular, I will discuss our results showing that in all the quantum systems in which these phenomena have been considered entanglement and Bell non-locality can be entirely destroyed in finite time when decoherence is lost only in the infinite time limit for some classes of initial state. Refreshments will be served in Olin Hall 118 at 3:40 P.M. Sponsored by: WPI Physics Department, Dr. Erkan Tuzel.

Gordon Library, Class of '41 Gallery, 3rd floor, 100 Institute Road, Worcester, MA Worcester Polytechnic Institute’s (WPI) Gordon Library Class of ’41 Gallery will feature an exhibit for the Halloween season on New England gravestones. On display will be gravestone rubbings created with foil and on paper by Judith Trainor. In her work, Trainor captures the imagery of death including skulls, skeletons, hourglasses, winged cherubs, birds and flowers. The rubbings are done with light-weight foil to show the depth of carving and design detail. Trainor has taken this form of gravestone rubbing in new directions by using a variety of foils, finishes, rubbing techniques, and framing methods and applying them to different types of gravestones. Most of the impressions were done in the early cemeteries of Massachusetts but there are some from other New England states and New York. Through her work Trainor strives to interest people in exploring and preserving local burying grounds. There will be an artist's reception on October 29, 4-6 p.m. Through Friday, Dec 18.
