M28 Fixed wing transport aircraft cost reduction
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)The M28 is a Polish short-takeoff-and-landing (STOL) light cargo aircraft developed in 1984 and currently built by PZL Mielec, a subsidiary of United Technology Corporation (UTC). There has been renewed interest in the ... -
M49-- Machine for the Living : a performance broadcast through an interfering FM radio transmission
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)The focus of the M49: Machine For The Living project is a performance work that considers the omnipresence of layered communications, which extend, yet supersede corporeal space of the individual. M49 creates a framework ... -
Ma(i)cro visions : utilizing social network service data for a transformational process of urban social spaces
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)The proliferation of data and technological evolution visualizes normally unseen dimensions of human interaction. However in urban studies, only a few embrace this new way of seeing as a practical tool to observe the public ... -
Maa-Bara : catalyzing change in Nigeria's Niger delta
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Can architecture catalyze economic growth? This thesis serves as a design contribution to the war against poverty by proving that small-scale architectural interventions can propagate large-scale economic growth. It ... -
Macaulay Bases of Modules
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2021-06)We introduce fully general Macaulay bases of modules, which are a common generalization of Groebner bases and Macaulay 𝐻-bases to suitably graded modules over a commutative graded k-algebra, where the index sets of the ... -
Machi, Machinami, Machiya : a context for people's places in Japan
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1982)This thesis attempts to present the structure of Japanese towns as the connection between physical amenity and use, and the meaning of spatial structure as it is formed and textured by the people who inhabit it. This is ... -
Machine analysis of students' mathematical representations for multiplication and division problems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)This project extends Classroom Learning Partner classroom interaction software to include a semantic interpretation component. This semantic interpretation, combined with existing syntactic interpretation, enables the ... -
