A Comparative Survey Of Job Prospects For The Period 1991-1996, Matthew C. Bell, Adam S. Goodie

Psychology

How discouraging is the job market for young scientists these days? It seems that most scientists who have tried to land a job in· recent years can tell you, unambiguously, "Very." Are prospects bleaker for some experimental psychologists than for others? To us, it subjectively seemed so. In an effort to answer this question more rigorously. we analyzed issues of the APS Observer Employment Bulletin, published by the American Psychological Society, from 1991-1996. Admittedly, the number of classified ads for jobs in a specific category is only one index of the job prospects for that category, but it is a …

Remanence Enhancement And Exchange Coupling In Prco/Co Films, J. Ping Liu, Yi Liu, Z.S. Shan, David J. Sellmyer

David Sellmyer Publications

PrCo/Co multilayer thin films have been prepared by sputtering. After heat treatment, high coercivity is developed and the remanence is enhanced for the insertion of the CO layers and the exchange coupling between the hard phase and the soft phase, which leads to high energy products of the composite magnets. The nanostructure of the films has been studied by TEM. It is found that the grain size of the films with high energy products is in the range from 10 to 25 nanometers.

The Class Politics Of Domestic Violence, John P. Mckendy

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

The claim is often voiced that wife abuse is a problem that "cuts across" all social and economic lines. Yet there is considerable research evidence suggesting an inverse relationship between wife abuse and the socioeconomic status of both victims and perpetrators. The question of the relevance of social class has generally been construed as a factual one, in principle resolvable by collecting more and better data. Doing a participant observation study of a treatment programme for men who batter, I was forced to bracket the "objective," empirical question, but freed to see how certain ideological practices worked to keep class …

Calibration And Validation Of The Cocomo Ii.1997.0 Cost/Schedule Estimating Model To The Space And Missile Systems Center Database, Wayne A. Bernheisel

Theses and Dissertations

The goal of this study was to determine the accuracy of COCOMO II.1997.0, a software cost and schedule estimating model, using Magnitude of Relative Error, Mean Magnitude of Relative Error, Relative Root Mean Square, and a 25 percent Prediction Level. Effort estimates were completed using the model in default and in calibrated mode. Calibration was accomplished by dividing four stratified data sets into two random validation and calibration data sets using five times resampling. The accuracy results were poor; the best having an accuracy of only .3332 within 40 percent of the time in calibrated mode. It was found that …

An Investigation Of Prioritizing Research Topics In Professional Communication, Richard G. Buschagen

Theses and Dissertations

This research explored which areas and methods of research need to be identified and developed to most effectively communicate business and technical information. The research was sparked by the current literature which indicates that a gap exists between academicians, who do most of the research, and practitioners, who utilize the research results. This effort was intended to address possible causes of this problem by establishing the importance of nine research topic areas, six data collection methods/sources, and three data analysis methods for both academicians and researchers and other demographic characteristics. The research concludes that the participants generally agreed on which …

Developing Division: A Computer Animation Thesis Report, George M. Nadeau

Theses

This paper offers a review of the production of my thesis animation Division. In it I will describe the challenges I faced and the approaches I used to resolve them. The process was organic and all the development decisions were repeatedly studied and questioned. Consequently, this paper does not attempt to be a chronological record. Rather, the sections are intended only to organize the process into six main areas of development. The first section will focus on the development of the story, including the definition of the mood and setting. The second section will focus on the development of the …

Sqt1, Which Encodes An Essential Wd Domain Protein Of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae, Suppresses Dominant-Negative Mutations Of The Ribosomal Protein Gene Qsr1., Dominic P. Eisinger, Frederick A. Dick, Elke Denke, Bernard L. Trumpower

Dartmouth Scholarship

QSR1 is an essential Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene, which encodes a 60S ribosomal subunit protein required for joining of 40S and 60S subunits. Truncations of QSR1 predicted to encode C-terminally truncated forms of Qsr1p do not substitute for QSR1 but do act as dominant negative mutations, inhibiting the growth of yeast when expressed from an inducible promoter. The dominant negative mutants exhibit a polysome profile characterized by 'half-mer' polysomes, indicative of a subunit joining defect like that seen in other qsr1 mutants (D. P. Eisinger, F. A. Dick, and B. L. Trumpower, Mol. Cell. Biol. 17:5136-5145, 1997.) By screening a high-copy …

Forced Convective Heat Transfer Through Horizontal Annular Porous Channel, Mohamed Mahgoub, Mohamed Wasel, H. Sarhan

Mansoura Engineering Journal

In present work, the forced convection heat transfer through horizontal annular porous channel is theoretically and experimentally studied. In the experimental work, annular channel with aspect ratio of 1.85 designed such that one can study the effect of various parameters controlling the behavior of the flow. Heat flux of 12.6 KM/m2 to 16.9 KM/m2 is applied to examine the effect of heat flux on heat transfer process. Porous media of diameters 3 mm and 5 mm stainless steel apherical beads are used to examine the effect of porosity on flow. Water, as a tert-liquid, is used with mass flow rates …

A Football Chase On Video, Norman F. Derby, Robert Fuller, Thomas A. Summers

Robert G. Fuller Publications

At some universities, football examples are used to motivate students in physics courses to study the law of kinematics and collisions. (In fact, it has been rumored that the number of such examples is inversely related the national ranking of the local football team.) In addition, pursuit-and-evasion strategies are often introduced in beginning calculus courses as a device for teaching mathematical modeling and problem solving. Some recent papers describe theoretical strategies for pursuit-and-evasion that are appropriate for a one-on-one situation in a football game. But what do players actually do in a real football game? We decided to look into …

Distributed Collaborative Learning Environments, Mark C. Kilby

Link Foundation Modeling, Simulation and Training Fellowship Reports

The evolution of technologies for the World Wide Web (WWW), computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW) and distributed simulation provides new opportunities for education delivery as well as unique perspectives for training. Simulation follows a learn-by-doing philosophy . The WWW and CSCW provides a collaborative learning perspective by encouraging collective knowledge building. By merging these two approaches, Distributed Collaborative Learning Environments (DCLEs) can be developed to provide new approaches to training in the military, industry, and academia. Traditional approaches toward educational rely on an information transfer model. Instructors deliver the material to the students and students are tested on how well they …
