Identification of mentoring constructs which are related to the attainment of career goals of recent doctoral degree recipients in education
(1992)
Mentoring constructs which effect the successful attainment of career goals for doctoral students in colleges of education have not been identified in the literature. The purpose of this study was to produce information ...
The nature of channel planform change : Brazos River, Texas
(1992)
Planform change has occurred in three contiguous alluvial reaches of the Brazos River, Texas, from the 1930s to 1988. The reaches encompassed 260 km and more than 125 bends and were selected based on confluences with two ...
Psychologists' attitudes toward patients with AIDS
(1992)
The primary purposes of this study were to examine psychologists' attitudes toward patients with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), and to determine if attitudes were related to patients' sexual orientations. ...
An effective-medium model for complex conductivity of shaly sands in the salinity, frequency, and saturation domains
(1992)
The effective-medium theory for complex conductivity is known to be a useful model for describing the conductive and dielectric properties of heterogeneous media. The validity of the theory for shaly sandstones is explored ...
Measurement of three-dimensional vehicular motion to assess the dynamic performance of safety structures
(1992)
Measurements system of three-dimensional motion of an impacting vehicle were studied. Through the review of existing systems, a nine accelerometer array was found to be a both stable and economical system. This system ...
Mechanical characterization of nonlinear laminated composites with traverse crack growth
(1992)
A work potential based analysis was used to model damage related material nonlinearities in graphite-epoxy laminates. Two work potentials were incorporated. One potential was related to sub-ply damage, such as shear banding ...
Test and theory for robust active vibration control of rotor- bearing systems utilizing piezoelectric actuators
(1993)
This research focuses on designing effective control strategies using piezoelectric actuators for control of vibrations of flexible rotor-bearing systems. The actuators are completely described and the elements of feedback ...
Announcements of stock repurchases during 1988 and 1989 : an empirical analysis examining the disclosure of intended open market repurchases
(1993)
A multi-method approach is used to examine firms that announced stock repurchases on the open market during 1988 and 1989. An event study methodology is used to determine the abnormal returns of these firms relative to ...
A numerical analysis of convective heat transfer in channels simulating electronic components
(1993)
The cooling performance of two dimensional channel flow simulating channels of electronic components has been studied numerically. A channel is formed with the substrates on which the heat sources are surface-mounted ...
Academic register : the voice of authority
(1994)
College students' acquisition of "academic discourse" has been the focus of a long-standing debate in composition studies. Despite much critical attention, academic discourse is still an enigma. Yet many theorists contend ...
