The End of the Point by Elizabeth Graver Pdf

Longlisted for the 2013 National Book Award for Fiction Ashaunt Point, Massachusetts, has anchored life for generations of the Porter family, who summer along its remote, rocky shore. But in 1942, the U.S. Army arrives on the Point, bringing havoc and change. That summer, the two older Porter girls—teenagers Helen and Dossie—run wild while their only brother, Charlie, goes off to train for war. The children’s Scottish nurse, Bea, falls in love. And youngest daughter Janie is entangled in an incident that cuts the season short. An unforgettable portrait of one family’s journey through the second half of the twentieth century, Elizabeth Graver’s The End of the Point artfully probes the hairline fractures hidden beneath the surface of our lives and traces the fragile and enduring bonds that connect us.

The Mathematical Development of the End-point Method by S. Frankel,S. Goldberg Pdf

The end-point method is mathematically developed and its application to the Milne kernel studied in detail. The general solution of the Wiener-Hopf integral equation is first obtained. The Mime kernel appears in applying this method to the integral equation describing the diffusion and multiplication of neutrons in multiplying and scattering media. The neutrons are treated as monochromatic, isotropically scattered and of the same total mean free path in all materials involved. Only problems with spherical symmetry are treated, these being reducible to equivalent infinite slab problems. Solutions are obtained for tamped and untamped spheres; in the former case both growing and decaying exponential asymptotic solutions in the tamper are treated in detail. Appendix I treats the effects of the approximations inherent in the end-point method (cf. LADC - 79). Appendix II gives the solution of the inhomogeneous Wiener-Hopf equation. (AN)

Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.
