چکیده

Research on public-participation geo-spatial technologies is largely directed at taking advantage of the potential broad reach of the Internet. In particular, Web-based GIS applications support asynchronous participation by individuals in different locations. Public involvement is, however, facilitated to a significant extent at community meetings and charettes where people meet face-to-face, review spatial information, and collectively arrive at inferences that inform decisions and choices. In this paper, we describe ongoing work on how a collection of digital interface devices, intelligent software agents, and conventional paper-based tools can facilitate face-to-face collaboration among members of small groups. We also present some preliminary observations about incorporating this approach and an agenda for future research.

Influence of the Imperfect Interface on Love-Type Mechanical Wave in a FGPM Layer

In this study, we consider the propagation of the Love-type wave in piezoelectric gradient covering layer on an elastic half-space having an imperfect interface between them. Dispersion relation has been obtained in the form of determinant for both electrically open and short cases. The effects of different material gradient coefficients of functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) and ...
