An investigation into the effects of damage on the stresses in a composite laminate
(1990)
A general constitutive framework based on continuum damage mechanics with constraints imposed by thermodynamics for composite laminates is presented. Several methods for the calculation of matrix crack and delamination ...
Modeling fluid flow around horizontal wellbores
(1990)
Modeling fluid flow around horizontal wellbores with conventional reservoir simulators is somewhat inefficient due to the fact that the radial flow patterns found in the vicinity of a horizontal wellbore must be simulated ...
Ingroup favoritism : a test of Social Identity Theory, Complexity Extremity Effect, and Attitude Polarization Model
(1990)
Ingroup favoritism was examined by Social Identity Theory (i.e., group membership), Complexity Extremity Effect (i.e., orthogonal knowledge), and Attitude Polarization Model (i.e., correlated knowledge) in two experiments. ...
Impact of CGA-136872 and EPTC on enzymatic and growth characteristics of CGA-136872-tolerant and -susceptible corn (Zea mays L.) varieties
(1990)
A technique was developed to expose corn seedlings to EPTC, a volatile herbicide, or CGA-136872, a non-volatile herbicide. This technique was used to document the cross tolerance of a CGA-136872-tolerant variety, Funk ...
Buckling of suspended cambered girders
(1990)
The process of designing a typical simply supported girder for service loads is well established. However, the fact that the girder will be suspended by cables during the erection phase affects the safety of the girder. ...
Evaluation of the antiviral, adjuvant and immunomodulatory effects of a [beta]-(1,4)-linked polymannose (Acemannan)
(1990)
This study examined the antiviral, adjuvant and immunomodulatory effects of acemannan (ACE-M), a long-chain polydispersed β-(1,4)-linked mannose polymer. Antiviral effects were determined in vitro. Newcastle disease virus ...
Genotype mixtures for control of leaf rust of wheat
(1990)
Three-component mixtures of wheat genotypes were evaluated for yield performance and effectiveness of control of wheat leaf rust, caused by Puccinia recondita Rob ex Desm. The studies were conducted in the 1985-86 and ...
