Furniture Manufacturing And Marketing In The ‘American Economic Transition, Steven H. Bullard

Faculty Publications

The Office of Technology Assessment recently prepared a 500 page report titled Technology and the American Economic Transition, Choices for the Future. OTA sees four major factors that are resulting in "economic transition" factors that will continue to transform the U.S. economy during the next 20 years: new technologies, new challenges from abroad, new resource constraints, and new values and tastes in U.S. consumer and labor markets.

New technologies, particularly in collecting and handling information, are expected to have long-term, pervasive economic and social impacts comparable to past U.S. economic transformations from major technologies such as automobiles and railroads. New …

Potential For Biological Control Of Dendroctonus And Ips Bark Beetles, David Kulhavy, Mitchel C. Miller

Faculty Publications

"The evolution of olfactory communication in bade beetles brought with it the parallel or coevolution of kairomonal systems in the natural enemy complexes. Entomophagous insects developed olfactory receptors and behavioral patterns responsive to insect and host-produced volatiles in the ecosystems of bark beetles. The phenomenon has both positive and negative implications for efforts to employ natural enemies in pest management."

The U.S. Household Furniture Industry: Adapting To Changing Times., Brian A. Doherty, Steven H. Bullard

Faculty Publications

The U.S. wood household furniture industry has adapted to change in many ways in recent years. The industry has grown steadily since the 1982 recession, and has been shifting to the U.S . South and Southeast. Although California has also become prominent in furniture production, many recent factors indicate geographic shifts away from the state, particularly in wood furniture production. The household furniture industry has also adapted and continues to adapt to factors which have increased the globalization of trade in all products. Foreign competition has resulted in mergers and consolidation in the U.S. household furniture industry, and has also …

Stepping Out Of The Morass Of Duress Cases: A Suggested Policy Guide, Juliet P. Kostritsky

Faculty Publications

Traditional coercion theories and elements are simply inadequate as an exclusive focus of analysis in duress cases. This Article does not propose a new theory of duress. Instead, it suggests a refinement of doctrine in which the courts candidly articulate certain key policy goals and develop elements based on them. These policy goals include efficiency, disclosure of unexpected risks, judicial capability, reliance, and economic incentives. If decisionmakers adopted the policy analyses suggested here, the predictability of judicial decisionmaking would be enhanced and a supplemental analysis would be available when the doctrinal elements become difficult to apply. Moreover, this approach would …

Localization Of Tissue Factor In The Normal Vessel Wall And In The Atherosclerotic Plaque, J. N. Wilcox, K. M. Smith, S. M. Schwartz, D. Gordon

Faculty Publications

Tissue factor (TF)-producing cells were identified in normal human vessels and atherosclerotic plaques by in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry using a specific riboprobe for TF mRNA and a polyclonal antibody directed against human TF protein. TF mRNA and protein were absent from endothelial cells lining normal internal mammary artery and saphenous vein samples. In normal vessels TF was found to be synthesized in scattered cells present in the tunica media as well as fibroblast-like adventitial cells surrounding vessels. Atherosclerotic plaques contained many cells synthesizing TF mRNA and protein. Macrophages present as foam cells and monocytes adjacent to the cholesterol clefts …

Coronary Arteriography And Coronary Bypass Survey Among Whites And Other Racial Groups Relative To Hospital-Based Incidence Rates For Coronary Artery Disease: Findings From Nhds, E. Ford, R. Cooper, A. Castaner, B. Simmons, M. Mar

Faculty Publications

To assess racial differences in health care utilization for coronary artery disease (CAD) the data of the National Hospital Discharge Survey (NHDS) from 1979-84 were examined. Discharge rates for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were utilized as a measure of hospital-based incidence and relative need for the designated cardiac procedures. Although 35-74 year old Black men had discharge rates of AMI that were 77 per cent of those observed for White men, they underwent coronary arteriography half as often and were only a third as likely to have coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Black women in this age range were …

The Fourier Transform In White Noise Calculus, Hui Hsiung Kuo

Faculty Publications

Let S* be the space of termpered distributions with standard Gaussian measure μ. Let (S) ⊂ L2(μ) ⊂ (S)* be a Gel'fand triple over the white noise space (S*, μ). The S-transform (Sφ{symbol})(ζ) = ∫S* φ{symbol}(x + ζ) dμ(x), ζ ∈ S, on L2(μ) extends to a U-functional U[φ{symbol}](ζ) = «exp(·, ζ), φ{symbol} a ̊ exp( -∥ζ∥2 2), ζ ∈ S, on (S)*. Let D consist of φ{symbol} in (S)* such that U[φ{symbol}](-iζ1T) exp[-2-1 ∫Tζ(t)2 dt], ζ ∈ S, is a U-functional. The Fourier transform of φ{symbol} in D is defined as the generalized Brownian functional φ{symbol}̌ in (S)* such …

The Regular Matroids With No 5-Wheel Minor, James G. Oxley

Faculty Publications

For r in {3, 4}, the class of binary matroids with no minor isomorphic to M(Wr), the rank-r wheel, has an easily described structure. This paper determines all graphs with no W5-minor and uses this to show that the class of regular matroids with no M(W5)-minor also has a relatively simple structure. © 1989.

Union Effects On Productivity, Profits, And Growth - Has The Long Run Arrived?, John T. Addison, Barry T. Hirsch

Faculty Publications

This article interprets literature examining union effects on economic performance. Production function studies indicate small overall union impacts on productivity; positive effects, where they exist, appear to result from management response to decreased profit expectations and from a natural selection process. Lower profitability among unionized firms is well established; more interesting is the possibility that unions appropriate quasi rents deriving from long-lived tangible and intangible capital. the connection between unions, investment behavior, and productivity growth emerges as a particularly fruitful line of empirical inquiry, although it does not encourage a sanguine view of unionism's long-run impact.

The Corporate Attorney-Client Privilege: A Study Of The Participants, Vincent C. Alexander

Faculty Publications

Empirical research on the practical effects of the attorney-client privilege in the corporate context has been almost nonexistent. This Article seeks to help fill the gap by synthesizing traditional doctrinal analysis with the results of a survey of individuals with first-hand information about the subject: corporate attorneys, corporate management, and federal judges and magistrates. The survey, which consisted of 182 interviews in New York City, produced a broad range of information about some of the assumptions underlying the corporate privilege, the forms and processes of corporate attorney-client communications and the adjudication of privilege claims.

A Thermal Analysis Of A Spirally Wound Battery Using A Simple Mathematical Model, T. I. Evans, Ralph E. White

Faculty Publications

A two-dimensional thermal model for spirally wound batteries has been developed. The governing equation of the model is the energy balance. Convective and insulated boundary conditions are used, and the equations are solved using a finite element code called TOPAZ2D. The finite element mesh is generated using a preprocessor to TOPAZ2D called MAZE. The model is used to estimate temperature profiles within a spirally wound D-size cell. The model is applied to the lithium/thionyl chloride cell because of the thermal management problems that this cell exhibits. Simplified one-dimensional models are presented that can be used to predict best and worst …

Faculty Publications

A description is given of the Regional Partnership Program; a field-responsive; center-specific model established at the University of Northern Iowa (UNI) designed to oversee clinical field experiences for student teachers. This cooperative partnership calls for a resident tenure track professor to be placed in a geographic area away from the main campus for the purpose of directing the student teaching program; teaching extension courses and being involved in other activities designed by the university. The model involves six regional districts specifically located across the state in such a fashion as to cause the university to be in touch with all …

Unobtrusive Studies And The Quality Of Academic Library Reference Services, Jo Bell Whitlatch

Faculty Publications

This article uses empirical data from a recent obtrusive study of reference performance to explore content validity and assumptions regarding unobtrusive studies. Data collected by author support the contention that improvements are highly desirable before conducting more unobtrusive studies of reference service. The two most important changes concern the development of test questions representing all types of queries and supplementing the correct fill rate with other measures of reference performance.

Tommaso Campanella's La Città Del Sole: Topography And Astrology, Ilona Klein

Faculty Publications

At the beginning of the seventeenth century the Dominican friar from Calabria, fra' Tommaso Campanella, had already solidified his anti-Aristotelian theories, had been persecuted and arrested, and was simulating madness in order to save his life while incarcerated in Naples. When Campanella conceived La Città del Sole under these circumstances in 1602, he was interpreting Telesio's naturalistic philosophy in a metaphysical manner, and was expressing in nuce the fundamental theories he would amplify two years later in Del Senso delle Cose e delle Magie.
