Strong displacement discontinuities and Lagrange multipliers in the analysis of finite displacement fracture problems
The finite displacement formulation of a quadrilateral element containing an embedded displacement discontinuity is presented. The formulation is based on the kinematically optimal technique, and some known defects of this technique are addressed. Lagrange multipliers are adopted to ensure the correct crack closure prior to initiation. Six additional degrees of freedom in each element allow the...
متن کاملMatches and Mismatches in Intercultural Learning: Design and Facilitation of an Online Intercultural Course
This paper explores communicative trends in an online, facilitated course for intercultural learners. We examine participation rates and communicative interactivity between culturally diverse learners, and find that participation rates differ by cultural grouping, by gender and by role, and that online interactions are dominated by facilitatorlearner exchanges (rather than by peer-to-peer commu...
متن کاملDoes matching matter? Examining matches and mismatches between patient attributes and therapy techniques in alcoholism treatment.
AIMS This study assessed the predictive validity of the level of matching and mismatching between patients' personal attributes and aspects of outpatient psychotherapy they received. DESIGN AND PARTICIPANTS On the basis of patient-by-treatment interactions observed for this sample in previous research, patients with alcohol abuse or dependence (n = 137) were designated retrospectively as bein...
متن کاملMatches and mismatches: ocean climate, prey phenology and breeding success in a zooplanktivorous seabird
In the marine environment, climatic changes are asymmetrically altering the phenologies of species at different trophic levels, causing an increase in the severity of mismatching between predators and their prey. At Triangle Island (British Columbia, Canada), the zooplanktivorous seabird Cassin’s auklet Ptychoramphus aleuticus breeds less successfully in warm-water years than in coldwater years...
متن کاملMyofibrillar disruption in hypocontractile myocardium showing perfusion-contraction matches and mismatches.
Chronically instrumented dogs underwent 2- or 5-h regional reductions in coronary flow that were followed, respectively, by balanced reductions in myocardial contraction and O(2) consumption ("hibernation") and persistently reduced contraction despite normal myocardial O(2) consumption ("stunning"). Previously unidentified myofibrillar disruption developed during flow reduction in both experime...
