The sudden failure of metal structures under load, which has
been a design problem for many years, is characterized by a crack
propagation rate which approaches the speed of sound in the material.
These failures, which are often known as catastrophic fractures,
may be divided into two types which depend...
The present study was designed to examine the relationship
between expressed attitudes toward child-rearing, and children's
social behavior in a preschool setting. More specifically, the study
was concerned with the association of parental authoritarian, hostile-rejecting,
and democratic attitudes with the aggressive and cooperative
peer interactions of preschool children. Under investigation...
A combination of theoretical perspectives is used to create a rich description of student reasoning when facing a highly-geometric electricity and magnetism problem in an upper-division active-engagement physics classroom at Oregon State University. Geometric reasoning as students encounter problem situations ranging from familiar to novel is described using van Zee...
Background:
Mapping and map-based cloning of genes that control agriculturally and economically important traits remain great challenges for plants with complex highly repetitive genomes such as those within the grass tribe, Triticeae. Mapping limitations in the Triticeae are primarily due to low frequencies of polymorphic gene markers and poor genetic...
