Seasonal And Spatial Variation Of Subgrade Response, Mustaque Hossain, Stefan Romanoschi, Andrew J. Gisi Jan 2000

Seasonal And Spatial Variation Of Subgrade Response, Mustaque Hossain, Stefan Romanoschi, Andrew J. Gisi

Civil Engineering Faculty Publications - Archive

Temperature, subgrade moisture content, and Falling Weight Defleetometer (FWD)-deflection data were collected monthly on four asphalt pavement test sections in Kansas for a year. The subgrade moduli were baekealeulated using the elastic layer theory. It was found that for almost all sites, the monthly variation in subgrade moisture content was not very significant over the seasons. The patterns of subgrade response, in terms of subgrade moduli versus time, simulated sine-shaped forms signifying a possible temperature effect. Higher variabilities across the site were associated with the extreme temperature conditions, usually very low or high average pavement temperatures. In all cases, the …

Conversation And The Speech Situation: A Tagmemic Analysis, David Benjamin Frank Dec 1999

Conversation And The Speech Situation: A Tagmemic Analysis, David Benjamin Frank

Linguistics & TESOL Dissertations - Archive

Until recently, conversation, considered even now by some to be outside the scope of linguistics, has been neglected in linguistic research. Chapter One of this dissertation argues that the popular distinction between 'theories of language structure' and 'theories of language use' might be abandoned in order to allow a more integrated study of language and a clearer understanding of the nature of language in the context of human life. To forward such an integrated study, a theoretical model on which to base the analysis of both conversation structure and other linguistic structures must be developed. The tagmemic model, developed by …

1999.2 - Abandoibarra Composite Bilbao, Martin Price, John Martin Oury Dec 1999

1999.2 - Abandoibarra Composite Bilbao, Martin Price, John Martin Oury

School of Architecture Student Projects - Archive

Design work from the 1999 fall semester, Studio Martin Price, School of Architecture, The University of Texas at Arlington. Abandoibarra. John Martin Oury. The Bilbao project is a composite of housing, commercial, provincial and municipal offices, library, hotel, commercial space and parking which interfaces with the city and the river. The grid of the city is respected with street vistas that continue between the swirling forms, which are inspired by Serra's torqued ellipses. Intensity of the swirling shapes increases near the Guggenheim Museum and decreases in response to the straight lines of the Euskalduna Concert Hall. Government offices are located …


The Code Model Of Communication: A Powerful Metaphor In Linguistic Metatheory, Perry Louis Blackburn Ii Dec 1999

The Code Model Of Communication: A Powerful Metaphor In Linguistic Metatheory, Perry Louis Blackburn Ii

Linguistics & TESOL Dissertations - Archive

The concept of communication is a fundamental notion in the metatheory of linguistics. This study explores the historical development and influence of a particular model of communication, labeled the ‘code model’. This model characterizes communication as a process wherein a source (encoder) conveys a message to a receiver (decoder) through the transmission of a signal. Communication is considered successful if the message received is the same as that sent. This study reviews use of the code model in various linguistic publications, analyzing the code model as a conceptual metaphor and arguing that it structures the way linguists think about communication …


Learning Efficiencies For Different Orthographies: A Comparative Study Of Han Characters And Vietnamese Romanization, Wi-Vun Taiffalo Chiung Dec 1999

Learning Efficiencies For Different Orthographies: A Comparative Study Of Han Characters And Vietnamese Romanization, Wi-Vun Taiffalo Chiung

Linguistics & TESOL Dissertations - Archive

In order to address the question of whether or not to abandon Han characters (Hanji), it is important to evaluate empirically the efficiency of Han writing. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficiency of learning to read and write in Hanji versus learning to read and write in phonemic writing systems, such as Vietnamese Chu Quoc Ngu (CQN) or Mandarin Bopomo. Three experiments were conducted in this study. The first experiment focused on a study of reading comprehension; the second one focused on a study of accuracy of writing dictation; and the last was a study of …

Facilitative Or Favorable Conditions For Adult Learners To Acquire Oral Proficiency In English, Shigeko Suzuki Hironaga Dec 1999

Facilitative Or Favorable Conditions For Adult Learners To Acquire Oral Proficiency In English, Shigeko Suzuki Hironaga

Linguistics & TESOL Dissertations - Archive

Social interaction in the language classroom has been said to contribute to the acquisition of oral proficiency in a target language by presumably facilitating comprehension and learner production through negotiation of meaning. Since a great portion of interaction is initiated by teacher questions, numerous studies on questions have been conducted. The majority of these studies, however, fail to provide adequate explanations for the conditions or environments which result in successful or unsuccessful elicitation. The study investigated the relationship between input, interaction and learner production with a focus on internal and external factors to teacher questions. Factors such as form, function, …

On The Semivalues And The Power Core Of Cooperative Tu Games, Juan-Enrique Martínez-Legaz, Irinel C. Dragan Sep 1999

On The Semivalues And The Power Core Of Cooperative Tu Games, Juan-Enrique Martínez-Legaz, Irinel C. Dragan

Mathematics Technical Papers - Archive

The Semivalues were introduced axiomatically by P.Dubey, A.Neyman and R.J.Weber (1981) as an important class of values for cooperative TU games. This class contains the Shapley value, the Banzhaf value, and many other values. For the Shapley value characterizations of games for which the Shapley value is coalitionally rational are due to Inarra and Usategui (1993), Izawa and Takahashi (1998), and Marin-Solano and Rafels (1999). In this paper the same problem of coalitional rationality is discussed for Semivalues, by using special formulas for the computation of Semivalues. The characterization shows that this is a prosperity property as defined by Van …

When Accuracy Hurts: Reactions Of Anxious–Ambivalent Dating Partners To A Relationship-Threatening Situation., William Ickes, Jami Grich, Jeffry A. Simpson May 1999

When Accuracy Hurts: Reactions Of Anxious–Ambivalent Dating Partners To A Relationship-Threatening Situation., William Ickes, Jami Grich, Jeffry A. Simpson

Psychology Faculty Publications - Archive

Why are individuals who are anxious and uncertain about their partner’s love and commitment especially likely to have turbulent and unstable relationships? Guided by three theoretical perspectives—Ickes and Simpson’s (1997) model of empathic accuracy in relationships, Bowlby’s (1969, 1973) attachment theory, and Holmes and Rempel’s (1989) appraisal model of trust, we examined how one psychological process—heightened empathic accuracy in relationship-threatening situations—might be associated with personal and relational distress. The participants inferred their dating partner's thoughts and feelings from a videotaped interaction in which they and their partner rated and discussed slides of either highly attractive or less attractive opposite-sex individuals. …


Particle Simulation In Contact Mechanics Of A Bouncing Elastic Ball, Donald Greenspan May 1999

Particle Simulation In Contact Mechanics Of A Bouncing Elastic Ball, Donald Greenspan

Mathematics Technical Papers - Archive

An elastic ball is simulated by considering lumped mass molecular sets called particles. Particles are allowed to interact only locally in a fashion similar to that employed in molecular mechanics. Under local and gravity forces an n-body problem results when initial data are prescribed. By scaling the forces, the resulting n-body problem is solved numerically using only a scientific personal computer. A variety of examples of bouncing balls are described and discussed.
