Annotation:

This thesis examines the role of schooling in the implementation and achievement of the respective religious and secular policies of the London Missionary Society (L.M.S.) and the Queensland Government in the Reserve Islands of Torres Strait. It sets out to analyse the educational policies of mission and government, the practices and processes by which attempts were made to implement them in the schools, and the outcomes of schooling for the L.M.S., the Queensland government, and Torres Strait Islanders. Particular attention is paid to policies, styles of administration, the curriculum, roles of teachers, indigenous teacher training, and Islanders' responses to schooling. The various historical, socio-cultural, geographical, and community contexts in which schooling was set are woven into the analysis as important considerations. The thesis reviews arguments for considering the Reserve Islands as a colony of Queensland. Further, it attempts to go beyond conventional theorising on colonial education by using holistic, qualitative and interpretive approaches. These approaches allow for interactive analysis of an array of elements in the Reserve Islands which shaped the policies, practices, and outcomes of schooling. It provides for an eclectic historiography, which, it is argued, allows for Islander and European viewpoints to be considered, and relevant contextual features to be included.

Annotation:

A practical fiber optic strain sensor has been developed to measure strains in the range of 0.0 to 2.0 percent strain with a resolution ranging between 10 and 100 microstrain depending on sensor design choices. This intensity based sensor measures strain by monitoring strain induced longitudinal misalignment in a novel fiber interconnection. This interconnection is created by aligning fibers within a segment of hollow core fiber. Related splice loss mechanisms are investigated for their effect on resolution. The effect of gauge length and launch conditions are also investigated.

Annotation:

Role strain, coping, and adaptational outcomes were examined for a sample of 205 eighth grade adolescents. Differences by gender and family type on amount of role strain, use of coping strategies, and levels of emotional stress and well-being in family and peer roles were identified. Results indicate gender differences in degree of strain experienced in the family role and in use of Social Support and Ventilation as coping strategies. Female adolescents report significantly greater strain than males in family roles. Females, in comparison to males, use Social Support to a significantly greater degree and Ventilation significantly less often as a coping response. Differences by family type were found for the use of Family Support as a coping strategy. Adolescents in single-parent families utilize Family Support as a coping strategy significantly less often than adolescents in two-parent families. Results are discussed and directions for future research are recommended.

Annotation:

A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of specimen dimensions in slow strain-rate environmental effects testing. Tension tests of free machining brass were conducted in a mercuric nitrate solution at a constant crosshead displacement rate of 10⁻³(inch/sec). Thirty-six smooth round bar specimens with different dimensions were tested. It was shown that percent elongation to failure was inversely proportional to an effective ratio of length to diameter, ((D - 2a)L / D²), where D is the specimen diameter, L is the length of the reduced cross section of the specimen, and a is the environmentally induced crack depth. This effective length to diameter ratio correlates with the applied tearing modulus for a cracked round bar tension specimen as defined by P. C. Paris and co-workers in 1979. The results verify that the tearing modulus may be used as a parameter to evaluate tearing instability in terms of elastic-plastic fracture mechanics. More directly, these results show a possible source of error in evaluating the degree of susceptibility to environmentally induced cracking in a material-environment interaction.

Der volle Inhalt der Quelle

Annotation:

Chapter 1 gives background information on proteases and discusses the concept of protease inhibition as a therapeutic strategy for humans. It introduces the key concept that conformation defines biological activity. It also outlines how proteases almost universally bind their substrate/inhibitors in an extended β-strand conformation. The use of calpain as a prototype protease for the testing of β-strand mimics synthesised later in the thesis is also discussed. Chapter 2 describes how molecular modeling was used to rationalise the structure based activity relationships (SAR) of known calpain inhibitors. Molecular modeling was then used to successfully design a number of acyclic β-strand mimics. The synthesis and testing of eight such inhibitors is described. The most potent β-strand mimic prepared was 2.13. This was determined to have an IC₅₀ of 30 nM against calpain II. Chapter 3 outlines the history and application of ring closing metathesis (RCM) to the synthesis of cyclic compounds. The attempted synthesis of an eight membered cyclic nitrogen to nitrogen conformationally constrained dipeptide is described. The synthesis of a conformationally constrained β-amino acid calpain inhibitor (3.73) is also described. A novel calpain inhibitor motif was designed in Chapter 4. On the basis of this an in-silico combinatorial library of two hundred and eighty eight possible β-strand templates was prepared. Conformational analysis of this library was performed and from this a number of excellent β-strand templates were identified and selected for synthesis. The preparation of ten β-strand templates is described. New microwave irradiation methodology was developed to achieve this. vii The formation of a six-membered catalyst deactivating chelate is also proposed to explain why some dienes fail to undergo RCM. Two methods to circumvent the formation of such a chelate are outlined. The addition of Lewis acid chloro-dicyclohexyl borane to the RCM reaction mixture and chain length alteration are investigated. Chapter 5 describes the design of macrocyclic β-strand mimics using induced fit molecular modelling. The physicochemical properties of these were calculated in-silico. From this analysis a number of Tyr-XX-Gly based and Tyr-XX-Cys based macrocyclic calpain inhibitors were selected for synthesis. The preparation and testing of these are described. In the Tyr-XX-Gly macrocyclic system a number of variables were investigated and numerous SAR implications concluded. Aldehyde 5.14 was identified as the best electrophilic warhead macrocyclic calpain inhibitor with an IC₅₀ against calpain II of 27 nM. The best non-electrophilic warhead macrocycle (5.13) had an IC₅₀ against calpain II of 704 nM. Chapter 6 describes synthetic optimisation for the preparation of calpain inhibitors 2.13, 5.14 and 5.17. Multi-gram quantities of each were prepared. Aldehydes 2.13 and 5.14 were evaluated as anti-cataract agents using in-vivo cataract sheep model. Both of these β-strand mimics were demonstrated to retard cataract development. Macrocycle 5.14 was found to be the most effective, decreasing the rate of cataract development between forty four and forty nine per cent relative to control. Chapter 7 outlines the attempted development of RCM methodology for the chiral synthesis of α-α disubstituted amino acid lactams. In addition, methodology for the stereoselective incorporation of a C-N constrained β-amino acid carbocycle into a peptide or peptidomimetic is described.

The topic of this thesis is the disputes between the teacher strikes 1966 and 1971 and how the labour movement perceived the teachers and the srikes throught the perspective of class. Various text sources from different agents within the labour movement has been examined. Interprations of two marxist theories and Bourdieus theory of habitus has been used to define various ”class perspectives”. The thesis argues that the labour movement percieved the teachers as a different class from the labourer and that the strikes were percieved as a threat to the labour movements interests.

Annotation:

The increased popularity of using reinforcement in embankment fills and slopes has created a need for studies of the interaction between the reinforcement and surrounding soil to provide an improved basis for limit equilibrium design methods. The purpose of this study was to develop a plane strain triaxial apparatus and associated equipment to study the interaction of soil and reinforcement. The plane strain apparatus was designed to model an element of soil situated along a slip surface in a reinforced embankment. The device constructed is capable of testing a sample 9.4 inches square and 23 inches high with full-size reinforcing materials included. A 30,000-pound capacity load frame and a 20,000-pound capacity electric load cell were also constructed during this study. Drawings of the equipment constructed and a design method for the load cell are included. Preliminary tests on unreinforced and reinforced samples under a confining pressure of 10 psi were performed to check the equipment operation. These tests show that the equipment functions as planned. Modifications desirable to improve the performance of the equipment are given.

Annotation:

Interference between the modes of an optical fiber results in specific intensity patterns which can be modulated as a function of disturbances in the optical fiber system. These modulation effects are a direct result of the difference in propagation constants of the constituent modes. In this presentation it is shown how the modulated intensity patterns created by the interference of specific mode groups in few-mode optical fibers (V < 5.0) can be used to detect strain. A detailed discussion of the modal phenomena responsible for the observed strain induced pattern modulation is given and it is shown that strain detection sensitivities on the order of 10-9 can be expected. Data taken during the evaluation of an actual experimental strain detection system based on the developed theory is also presented.

Der volle Inhalt der Quelle

Annotation:

A suicide attack is an extreme modus operandi of terrorism. This research examines the application of two similar sociological theories to terrorism and specifically, to suicide terrorism. Three models are built to test if Merton‘s strain theory can explain the propensities of provinces to produce terrorists and suicide bombers in the first phase. Next, in Phase 2 one model is built on a combination of altruistic and fatalistic type variables to test if Durkheim‘s anomie theory can explain the probability of a terrorist to become suicide bomber or not. The analyses of models 1, 2, and 3 are performed in Phase 1 using aggregate secondary data and the analysis of model 4 is performed in Phase 2 using individual level secondary data. While models 1 and 2 are employing multiple regression, models 3 and 4 use logistic regression analyses. Model 1 tests the propensity of a province to produce terrorists relative to six strain variables, while model 2 develops an optimum model, testing the same associations by using only three significant independent variables. Model 3 tests the probability of a province to produce a suicide bomber(s) using the same six indicators. Model 4 tests the probability of a terrorist to become a suicide bomber relative to anomie theory driven by seven indicators. The results reflect support for the overall model 1, while only the indicators of unemployment rate and political representation in the legislative assembly significantly contribute in explaining the propensity score of a province to produce a terrorist. However, the optimum model (2) includes three statistically significant indicators of unemployment rate, political representation in the legislative assembly, and quality of life. Although model 3 also emerged significant in its overall effect, only educational opportunity significantly contributes to explaining the probability of a province to produce a suicide bomber. Model 4 is also supported. The individual effects reveal that the indicators of age group, income level, and hierarchical position in the organization statistically contribute to explaining the probability of a terrorist to become a suicide bomber. In general, the research provides partial support for the application of strain and anomie theories to terrorism and suicide attacks.

Annotation:

Using data from the Chicago Homicide Dataset for years 1988-1992 and the Chicago Community Area Demographics, multiple regression and mediation analysis are used to examine various community level factors’ impact on Intimate Partner Homicide (IPH) rates per Chicago community area. The relationship between the percentage of non-white and IPH rate per Chicago community area is significant and positive, but disappears once economic strain is taken into account, as well as when family disruption is included in the model. There is a weak, but positive relationship between population density and IPH rates, but neither economic strain nor family disruption mediates the relationship between population density and IPH rates. Economic deprivation is positively related to IPH rates, but economic strain and family disruption partially mediate the relationship between economic deprivation and IPH rates. Finally, the relationship between the percentage of males aged 30-59 and IPH rates per community area in Chicago is moderately negative, but this relationship disappears once economic strain is accounted for in the model. However, family disruption does not mediate the relationship between the percentage of males aged 30-59 and IPH rates. These results indicate that some structural covariates impact IPH rates and that some relationships are mediated by economic strain and family disruption. These results also lend support to a modified approach to general strain theory (GST). More research is necessary to validate these results.

Annotation:

Registered nurses with experience in the clinical area entering academia go through a transition that may lead to difficulties such as role ambiguity and role strain when beginning a new job. The purpose of this study was to understand the experiences leading to role ambiguity, role strain, difficulty with role transition, and job dissatisfaction among the faculty at colleges of nursing in the mountain region of Western North Carolina. Guided by Kahn's organizational role theory and Schlossberg's transition theory, research questions investigated the nursing faculty experience of role ambiguity, role strain, difficulty transitioning into academia, and job dissatisfaction. A qualitative explanatory case study design using a convenience sample of 12 current full-time and adjunct nursing faculty was implemented for the study. Online anonymous written interviews were conducted for data collection. Data were analyzed and coded using open coding and thematic analysis to identify recurring themes. The results of the study revealed 6 themes: lack of preparation for academic role expectations, lack of awareness of new role requirements or new teaching assignments, difficulty transitioning into academia or a new teaching position, need for orientation and mentoring for nursing faculty, satisfaction related to the desire to stay or leave a position, and nursing faculty love what they do. The study findings informed the project, a professional development program for novice nursing faculty that supports the transition into a new role. Implications for positive social change include retention of nursing faulty, admission of increased numbers of nursing students, and more nurses working in communities with populations in need.

Annotation:

Brucella abortus st. RB51 is a rough mutant of smooth st. 2308 devoid of O-side chain and resistant to rifampin. The purpose of this investigation was to study the behavior and effects of viable st. RB51 organisms in inoculated mice and cattle and to further substantiate the lack of O-side chain antigens in this strain. A single injection of live st. RB51 persisted in BALB/C mice up to 28 days. A secondary exposure was cleared in 7-21 days. One or 2 injections of st. RB51 did not induce detectable titers of anti-O-side chain antibodies, although antibody titers to st. RB51 whole cell and cytoplasmic antigens were detected. Mice infected with st. RB51 alone or followed by infection with st. 2308, demonstrated a very strong reaction to a 14-18 Kd antigen which was believed to be the core of the LPS complex. When st. RB51 was administered after injection of st. 2308 the response to the core determinants were inhibited. One vaccination with st. RB51 was able to significantly protect mice against challenge with st. 2308 at one and four weeks post challenge. Two st. RB51 vaccinations were able to protect mice as well as one vaccination at one week post challenge but protection increased by four weeks post challenge. Strain RB5l was able to survive in cattle a for at least twenty-two days. The organism remained stable, rifampin resistant, and may have induced minor amounts of transient anti-O-side chain antibodies in some cows late in the experiments.

Annotation:

A small scale, highly accurate elongational viscometer was developed explicitly for the rheological investigation of well characterized polyethylene samples. Elongational stress growth measurements as well as dynamic shear experiments demonstrated that the rheological response of molten polyethylene was sensitive to both molecular weight distribution and shear modification. The effects of molecular weight distribution and shear modification were rationalized from a molecular point of view. A model is proposed which is based on the concept of a molecular network and incorporates polymer chain entanglement disruption and regeneration. Direct observations of polymeric semicrystalline morphologies in a copolyester by scanning electron microscopy were made possible by the development of a novel chemical etch. Spherulitic textures were consistent with classic spherulite growth mechanisms and structure theories. Uniaxial deformation of a single spherulite was successfully studied in a model system consisting of isolated spherulites embedded in an amorphous polymer matrix. By isolating the spherulite, the mechanical influence of surrounding and often impinging spherulites found in most semicrystalline polymers on the mechanical response of an individual spherulite was avoided. The mechanical response of the amorphous matrix was characterized and found to correlate with the effectiveness of a cold draw neck in elongating an embedded spherulite. The observed mechanism and morphology of isolated spherulite deformation were rationalized within the context of existing theories of spherulite-to-microfibrillar transitions. Optically active poly(L-lactic acid) and racemic poly(lactic acid) were synthesized in a ring opening polymerization scheme with stannous octoate as a catalyst and lactic acid as a molecular weight controlling initiator. Binary polymer blends composed of these isomeric polymer pairs were found to be miscible at 40,000 molecular weight and immiscible at 120,000 molecular weight. Strain hardening and the level of strain induced crystallization which occurred in the biaxial deformation of poly(lactic acid) blend films were found to be contingent on the concentration of optically active poly(L-lactic acid). Temperature, molecular weight, and biaxial strain rate were also found to have an influence on strain hardening and strain induced crystallization of these thermodynamically ideal polymer blends.

Annotation:

The impact of thermal stress on psychological performance has been the subject of considerable research attention. However, the effects of heat on performance are poorly understood. The literature yields inconsistent results, reflecting methodological shortcomings in previous research, particularly with regard to the definition of the independent variable. Investigators have focused on heat stress per se to the neglect of the participants' thermal physiological response. In addition, investigators have typically tested small samples, and have relied on a limited range of performance measures of unknown sensitivity. Few theoretical accounts of performance during thermal stress have been proposed, and these are poorly elaborated. The principal aim of this research programme was to elucidate the effects of heat on psychological performance. Emphasis was placed on defining the independent variable in terms of physiological strain. Performance was measured using a comprehensive range of sensitive tasks. In the first and second experiments, an innovative water immersion technique was used to control thermal strain precisely. The principal effect of heat strain observed in these experiments was an increase in the speed of performance, without variation in accuracy. This effect was attributed to an increase in nerve conduction velocity associated with raised body temperature. The duration of immersion in the second experiment was fifty percent longer than that in the first, but little variation in performance with the duration of heat strain was evident. In light of the limited external validity of the immersion experiments, subsequent investigation focused on the effects of more realistic sources of thermal strain. A survey of military personnel indicated that occupational exposure to thermal stress is perceived to impair some cognitive and psychomotor functions. The final experiment measured performance during prolonged exposure to heat stress in a climatic chamber. The results indicate that the performance changes observed in the immersion experiments generalize to conditions involving exposure to more realistic sources of heat strain

Annotation:

A comparative study of the microaerophilic Campylobacter jejuni strain H840 with an aerotolerant mutant, MC711-01, revealed that catalase and, to a lesser extent, SOD activity is correlated with the aerotolerance and enhanced resistance of MC7ll-0l to H₂O₂. When cells were cultured under 6% oxygen, the specific activity of catalase was significantly higher in crude extracts of MC711-01 than of H840. The catalase activity of MC711-01 more than doubled when cells were cultured under 21% oxygen, and this activity was 2.6 times greater than that of H84O; no corresponding increase was observed in strain H840. There was no significant difference in the mean SOD activity of the two strains when cultured under 6% oxygen or in H840 cells cultured under either 6% or 21% oxygen; however, the SOD activity of MC711-01 increased 1.5 times when cells were cultured under 21% oxygen.

Survival studies revealed that MC711-01 was significantly more E resistant to H₂O₂ when cultured under either 6% or 21% oxygen. However, both MC711-01 and H84O were more susceptible to H₂O₂ when grown under 21% oxygen, indicating that both strains might be more highly stressed when the cells are grown at this oxygen tension.

The present study suggests that in C. jejuni, the level of catalase activity may influence the degree of susceptibility to H₂O₂ and consequently, the degree of aerotolerance.

Annotation:

The relationship among role strain, coping, and stress was quantitatively assessed using responses from 190 dual-career husbands and wives. Cluster analysis of stress scores resulted in the adoption of a six-cluster solution. MANOVA on role strain confirmed a significant effect by Cluster, F(15,455)=8.92, p=.001. Post hoc analyses indicated that Cluster VI had significantly lower scores from all other clusters on all three role categories: marital, professional, and parental. Cluster I had significantly higher scores than Cluster v and VI on all three role strain categories. MANOVA on coping strategies confirmed a significant effect by Cluster, F(35,709)=1.95, p=.001. Although individuals in this sample reported low to moderate strain and stress, significant variation existed within the sample. Individuals experiencing the lowest strain and stress employed two coping responses most often, Delegating Responsibility and Cognitive Restructuring. The results are explained with regard to stage of career and family development and child care concerns.

This complex made up greater than 10% of the cellular protein and the native enzyme formed aggregates with a Mr of approximately 1,000,000. The enzyme contained five subunits of different molecular weight suggesting a multifunctional enzyme complex. Nickel, iron, cobalt, zinc, inorganic sulfide, and a corrinoid were present in the complex. The electron paramagnetic resonance spectrum of CO-reduced enzyme at 113K contained g values of 2.073, 2.049, and 2.028. Isotopic substitution with ⁶¹Ni, ⁵⁷Fe, or ¹³Co resulted in broadening of the spectrum consistent with a Ni-Fe-C spin-coupled complex. Acetyl-CoA caused a perturbation of the signal that was not caused by acetyl-phosphate or mercaptoethanol indicating acetyl-CoA is a physiological substrate. Cell extracts from acetate-grown M. thermophila contained CO-oxidizing:H₂-evolving activity 16-fold greater than extracts of methanol-grown cells. CO-oxidizing:H₂-evolving activity was reconstituted upon combination of: (i) CO dehydrogenase complex, (ii) a ferredoxin, and (iii) purified membranes with associated hydrogenase and b-type cytochrome. The ferredoxin was a direct electron acceptor for the CO dehydrogenase complex. The molecular weight of the isolated protein was 16,400, and the apparent minimum molecular weight was 4,900. The ferredoxin contained 2.8 ± 0.56 Fe atoms and 1.98 ± 0.12 acid-labile sulfide. UV-visible absorption maxima were 395 and 295 nm with a A₃₉₅/A₂₉₅ ratio range of 0.80 to 0.88. The N-terminal amino acid sequence revealed a 4-cysteine cluster, similar to other Fe:S centers that coordinate a Fe:S center. A CH₃-B₁₂:HS-CoM methyltransferase activity was characterized in extracts of acetate- and methanol-grown cells. The activity from extracts of acetate-grown M. thermophila was stable at 70°C for 30 minutes. The activity in cell extracts of acetate- and methanol-grown cells was fractionated with ammonium sulfate treatment and FPLC phenyl superose chromatography. Two peaks of methyltransferase activity were observed in each cell extract sample following phenyl superose fractionation.

Differences in role strain and coping across five family life cycle stages were assessed using responses from 329 dual-career women and men. MANOVA on role strain confirmed a significant effect by gender. Women reported a significantly higher level of personal role strain than men. Coping strategy use differed significantly by gender and life cycle stage. Women utilized the coping strategies Cognitive Restructuring, Delegating Responsibility, Limiting Responsibility, and Using Social Support significantly more often than men. Dual-career men and women without children at home used Balancing Work and Family significantly less frequently than men and women with children. Respondents whose oldest child was under 6 reported less use of Delegating Responsibility than those with an oldest child age 13-18. Limiting Responsibility was used less by participants with children under age 6 than by those with older children. Bivariate correlational patterns for male and female respondents were similar across roles. The results are discussed from a family life cycle perspective.

Annotation:

Šest let trvající období vlády labouristických vlád v letech 1945-51 má z hlediska poválečného vývoje Velké Británie rozhodující význam. Do jisté míry nečekané a výrazné vítězství labouristické strany vytvořilo prostor pro provádění významných socialistických opatření, které předznamenaly směr hospodářské politiky uskutečňovaný až do druhé poloviny 70. let. Tato práce se zabývá jednotlivými kroky provedenými Labouristickou stranou v tomto období a analyzuje jejich dopady. Práce je rozdělena do několika kapitol, které se věnují jednotlivým oblastem působení labouristické vlády. První kapitola se zabývá důvody, které vedly k vítězství labouristů; v dalších kapitolách je analyzována poválečná ekonomická situace, politika plánování a zestátnění a budování širokého sociálního státu. Cílem práce je zhodnotit, jakým způsobem ovlivnilo období labouristických vlád budoucí hospodářský vývoj Velké Británie, zda toto období představovalo úspěšné zvládnutou poválečnou rekonstrukci nebo zda naopak znamenalo jeden z hlavních faktorů pomalejšího hospodářského růstu Velké Británie v pozdějších letech.

Questa ricerca indaga come il “caso Ustica” si è articolato nell’opinione pubblica italiana negli anni compresi tra il 1980 e il 1992. Con l'espressione “caso Ustica” ci si riferisce al problema politico determinato dalle vicende legate all’abbattimento dell’aereo civile DC-9 dell’Itavia, avvenuto il 27 giugno 1980 in circostanze che, come noto, furono chiarite solamente a distanza di molti anni dal fatto. L’analisi intende cogliere le specificità del processo che ha portato la vicenda di Ustica ad acquisire rilevanza politica nell’ambito della sfera pubblica italiana, in particolare prendendo in considerazione il ruolo svolto dall’opinione pubblica in un decennio, quale quello degli anni ’80 e dei primi anni ’90 italiani, caratterizzato da una nuova centralità dei media rispetto alla sfera politica. Attraverso l’analisi di un’ampia selezione di fonti a stampa (circa 1500 articoli dei principali quotidiani italiani e circa 700 articoli tratti dagli organi dei partiti politici italiani) si sono pertanto messe in luce le dinamiche mediatiche e politiche che hanno portato alla tematizzazione di una vicenda che era rimasta fino al 1986 totalmente assente dall’agenda politica nazionale. L’analisi delle fonti giudiziarie ha permesso inoltre di verificare come la politicizzazione del caso Ustica, costruita intorno alla tensione opacità/trasparenza del potere politico e all’efficace quanto banalizzante paradigma delle “stragi di Stato”, sia risultata funzionale al raggiungimento, dopo il 1990, dei primi elementi di verità sulla tragedia e all’ampiamento del caso a una dimensione internazionale.

Between the two World Wars the Croatian Peasant Party emerged as the largest political party among the Croats. It consistently received between seventy and ninety per cent of the Croatian vote and it ranked as the largest party in Croatia, and the second largest in Yugoslavia.
In 1925 Rudolf Herceg, a leading party ideologue, created the CPP's cultural wing: Peasant Concord (Seljacka Sloga): which worked to promote peasant culture as separate from and superior to that of modern industrial society elsewhere in Europe.
Although the political aspects of the Croatian Peasant Party have been well-covered, its cultural wing has been comparatively neglected. This thesis presents an account of Peasant Concord: its aims, activities and influence.

Temperature profiles of and combined thermal-mechanical induced strains for Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic (CFRP)-Aluminium multi-fastener double lap joints in a wingbox structure are examined. Two dimensional (2D) FE analyses for cases of full, empty, and half-full fuel tank scenarios are used to develop temperature profiles. The influence of conduction, convection, and radiation on temperature profiles is examined. Results show that the empty tank scenario produces the highest temperatures, with the joint region having the peak temperatures, and that convection and radiation must both be modelled in order to accurately estimate wingbox temperatures for the empty, and halffull tank scenarios. Analytical temperature prediction models, both at and away from the joint region, are developed for combined convection and radiation boundary conditions at both external surfaces of this unique finite geometry. For transient analyses, single and multiple layer models are designed using integral transforms and separation of variables, respectively. To show the joint region is critical in terms of induced strains, sequentially coupled thermal-stress analysis is performed using the resulting temperature profiles. Based on these results, and on the results of the temperature profiling, an experimental model is designed to study the effects of thermal and mechanical 1 oading on a threefastener double lap joint with CFRP'skin and aluminium laps. To fully explore the joint region, three dimensional (3D) FE results are compared with experimental data. Mechanical tensile stress in the elastic range is applied at room temperature (295K) and at an elevated temperature (373K). Increasing temperature alters the strain patterns among the fasteners and generally decreases' the peak radial strains at individual fasteners, but increases tangential strains. The effect of torque on the strain distribution in these multi-fastener double lap joints is examined by comparing finger-tight and operationally-tight (35Nm) torques at both temperatures. Increasing torque significantly reduces peak strains on individual fasteners and evens the strain distribution across the joint

The subject of the thesis "Selected samizdat magazines 1980 - 1987 (X Desítka (Ten)/Violit and Jednou nohou (One Foot)/Revolver Revue)" is to give a picture of how these magazines were created and how they functioned in the context of the time. The first part of the thesis gives a general description of historical events, especially the period surrounding Gustáv Husák's rise to become the head of the Czechoslovak Communist Party and the start of normalisation. This change brought about issues such as political cleansing and trials and the development of opposition. The second chapter is devoted to the phenomenon of Charter 77, its origins, the response to it by the party and state apparatus and what it meant to be a Charter 77 member in everyday life. The concept of samizdat is briefly defined in chapter three. The fourth and fifth chapters deal with the magazines themselves. In the sixth chapter they are compared mainly in terms of production and distribution.

(thefts of socialist property) This diploma thesis observes how the problems of thefts of socialist property in Czechoslovakia were presented in the Rudé právo, the press body of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia, between 1986 and 1989, or which discrepancies appeared in this presentation. The view on thefts of socialist property in the terms of law comes before the real core of the thesis - by putting stress on the definition of the socialist property in the Constitution, the given criminal act in the Penal Code, the view of the juristic literature on the social dangerousness of the given action, here represented by the Socialistická zákonnost journal. Afterwards the author focuses on how the problems of thefts (but also that of protection) of socialist property were related to the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia (or rather to its officials), top managers and rank and file employees, which he illustrates on particular cases. In the end the author compares the articles of the Rudé právo with some empirical findings - in relation to the survey of the Institute for public opinion poll by the Federal statistical office about the discipline and the check on the workplace, in relation to the statistics about the economic criminal activity mentioned in the German written...

The Czech Constitutional Progressive Party (1908-1918) The Czech Constitutional Progressive Party represents in many aspects a unique phenomenon of the Czech politics in the last years before the outbreak of WWI and during the dramatic war period afterwards. Although it did not belong to massive and influential parties, it played a significant role on the political scene at that time with a part of a solitary, represented by many distinctive individualities. It existed for only ten years, six years out of it in standard peace conditions, but in a time of breaking historical events and decisions it made itself be heard in such an important way that it left a remarkable trace in the Czech history of the 20th century. It was created in April 1908 by merging two parties, a Radical Progressive Party and a Constitutional Party (or rather a Radical Constitutional Party) that had been established at the very end of the 19th century following a disintegration and a political differentiation of the progressive movement of the 90's. The party took up a progressive legacy by consistently demanding a renewal of the independent Czech state on the basis of the Czech historical constitutional law, political democratisation and welfare reforms. Besides that, the party stood in a firm opposition to the government...

Annotation:

This dissertation investigates Taiwan's role in the twists and turns in its relationship with China from 1987 to 2004. It employs the methods of both case studies and the VAR (vector autoregression) time-series analysis to assess the impact of the following four factors on Taiwan's actions toward China: (1) the democratic transition in Taiwan, (2) Taiwan's electoral politics, (3) cross-Strait economic exchanges, and (4) U.S. Taiwan Policy. The research conclusions are as follows. First, President Lee Teng-hui's rational calculation in the late 1980s guided him to launch domestic political reforms while continuing former President Chiang Chingkuo's liberalization of Taiwan's China policy. Consequently, Taiwan's democratic transition was accompanied by the appearance of a peaceful policy toward China. Second, in order to win votes from the electorate, which increasingly embraced a Taiwanese identity after the mid-1990s, Taiwanese politicians tended to launch aggressive electoral campaigns against China. Accordingly, domestic elections turned out to be a conducive factor for Taiwan's conflictual actions toward China. Third, politicians' electoral consideration also overrode Taiwanese businessmen's preference for crossStrait stability. As a result, cross-Strait economic interdependence was unable to restrain Taiwan from taking aggressive policies toward China. Fourth, because Taiwanese politicians tended not to give in to U.S. pressures during Taiwan's elections, the U.S. could not successfully stop Taiwan's provocative actions toward China as elections neared in Taiwan. It was only when Taiwanese leaders sought to strengthen U.S.-Taiwan relations after election seasons ended that the U.S. could induce Taiwan to act cooperatively toward China.

The thesis "The Party of the Expelled" in the Český Krumlov and Prachatice district 1970-1980 through the research of regional context deepens the knowledge of the process of establishment and legitimization of Normalization in the periphery of the Czech borderland. On the basis of archival materials, mainly from the District Committees of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia (KSČ) in Český Krumlov and Prachatice and other sources within the Party hierarchy, it tries to map the course of the consolidation process and party purges in 1970. Compared to nationwide data, it attempts to capture the specifics of the Czechoslovakian periphery. The main task of the thesis is to analyze various fate of excluded members of the KSČ: the so-called "Party of the Expelled." The analysis focuses on their diverse life trajectories and ways of dealing with separation from the party collective, with special regard to the various loyalties that these people were tied to the party, to the society, workplaces and, last but not least, to each other. Through this analysis, the role of this segment of the population in establishing the legitimacy of the Normalization regime is shown.

Diploma thesis "The relationships between Czech Social Democratic Party and the Communist Party of Bohemia and Moravia after 1989" deals with the relation between these two parties after the communist regime in Czechoslovakia collapsed. First of all, basic differences between social democratic and communist movement are defined. Even though both ideologies have common roots they separated rather quickly. Than it describes development of Czech Social Democratic Party and since 1921 is examining Communist Party of Czechoslovakia till 1948. The effort of renewal of social democratic party in 1968 has its own chapter. Development of party system and position of both left-wing parties examine the second main part of this diploma work. Communist party of Bohemia and Moravia was not transformed and stayed in the political isolation. Czech Social Democratic Party became strongest party on the left and one of the two most influential parties in the Czech Republic. Communists move from the isolation to cooperation with social democrats. Finally, demography of voters and transformation of Communist Party of Bohemia and Moravia are described.

Integration theory has been widely used in recent cross-strait relations studies, particularly since Taiwan-Mainland China interactions began in the early 1990s. Most researchers favor the neo-functionalism; they try to propose the functional integration model to resolve the political dispute between Taiwan and Mainland China. Also, they usually quote the “spillover hypothesis” to estimate and predict the future development of cross-strait relations. The neo-functionalists not only dedicate to provide a more satisfactory explanation to the European integration process but also try to construct an analytic model about the comparative studies of regional integration. Exactly, the main contents and core hypotheses of neo-functionalism are based on “spillover effect－spillover conditions－politicization”, that so called “three steps integration process”. However, the perspectives of neo-functionalism have been criticized. These authors did not clarify the relationships between spillover conditions; nor did they distinguish the priorities among them. Moreover, they neglected the importance of the external factors in regional integration process. As yet we have too few articles in Chinese to be able to discuss the contents of neo-functionalism in depth. Furthermore, the Chinese researchers also failed to offer new approach or analytic structure to revise or improve the perspectives of neo-functionalism. Based on the above mentioned reflections and criticisms, this article tries to comprehensively retrospect the contents of neo-functionalism and assesses its strengths and weaknesses. Besides, this article also dedicates to improve and complete the analytic structure of neo-functionalism and then establishes a general principle of the “spillover hypothesis” through the comparative studies between European integration and the cross-strait relations. In this article, I suggest a pattern of eight variables (spillover conditions), includes Structural conditions: 1) size of the units, 2) political systems, 3) threats to military and national security; Process conditions: 4) rate of transactions, 5) attitudes and concerns of political elites, 6) identifications and public opinions of civil societies; External factors: 7) international system and great events, 8) roles and attitudes of hegemonic state. In general, there are three major academic contributions in this article. First, this article not only clarifies the relationships between the spillover conditions and European integration, cross-strait relations but also spells out the relationships between these variables. Second, it distinguishes the priorities and weights among these spillover conditions. Third, this article establishes a general principle of the “spillover hypothesis” as well. In the end, I expect these three research findings could complete the comparative approach about the regional integration of neo-functionalism.

A ballistic limit equation for hypervelocity impact on thin plates is derived analytically. This equation applies to cases of impulsive impact on a plate that is protected by a multi-shock shield, and is valid in the range of velocity above 6 km/s. Experimental tests were conducted at the NASA Johnson Space Center on square aluminum plates. Comparing the center deflections of these plates with the theoretical deflections of a rigid-plastic plate subjected to a blast load, one determines the dynamic yield strength of the plate material. The analysis is based on a theory for the expansion of the fragmented projectile and on a simple failure criterion. Curves are presented for the critical projectile radius versus the projectile velocity, and for the critical plate thickness versus the velocity. These curves are in good agreement with curves that have been generated empirically.
