1	A material model for multiaxial stretching and stress relaxation of polypropylene under process conditions Sweeney, John, O'Connor, C.P.J., Spencer, Paul E., Pua, H., Caton-Rose, Philip D., Martin, P.J. 03 December 2020 (has links) No / Polypropylene sheets have been stretched at 160 °C to a state of large biaxial strain of extension ratio 3, and the stresses then allowed to relax at constant strain. The state of strain is reached via a path consisting of two sequential planar extensions, the second perpendicular to the first, under plane stress conditions with zero stress acting normal to the sheet. This strain path is highly relevant to solid phase deformation processes such as stretch blow moulding and thermoforming, and also reveals fundamental aspects of the flow rule required in the constitutive behaviour of the material. The rate of decay of stress is rapid, and such as to be highly significant in the modelling of processes that include stages of constant strain. A constitutive equation is developed that includes Eyring processes to model both the stress relaxation and strain rate dependence of the stress. The axial and transverse stresses observed during loading show that the use of a conventional Levy-Mises flow rule is ineffective, and instead a flow rule is used that takes account of the anisotropic state of the material via a power law function of the principal extension ratios. Finally the constitutive model is demonstrated to give quantitatively useful representation of the stresses both in loading and in stress relaxation.

2	The influence of culture on students' impulsive buying behaviour in the Vaal Triangle area / Luzaan Hamilton Hamilton, Luzaan January 2011 (has links) Impulse buying or unplanned purchases by consumers constitute a major proportion of purchases in certain product categories. Studies in the United States widely reported that impulse consumer buying behaviour accounts for up to 80% of all purchases in certain product categories, and it has been suggested that purchases of new products result more from impulse purchasing than from prior planning. South Africa is a nation of shoppers with increasing numbers defined as impulse buyers who respond to glossy adverts such as „never to be beaten bargains‟ and „buy one get one free‟. Culture has a profound effect on why people buy. Culture affects the specific products people buy as well as the structures of consumption, individual decision-making and communication in a society. Since South Africa has quite a diverse group of different cultures, it has been of great importance to determine whether cultural differences had an influence on impulsive buying behaviour. The primary research objective was to assess the influence of different cultures on consumer impulsive buying behaviour of students. The findings of this research study did not clearly indicate if culture had an effect on students‟ impulsive buying behaviour. / Thesis (M.Com.

4	The role of the ward manager in creating a conducive clinical learning environment for nursing students Netshandama-Funyufunyu, Vhonani Olive 11 1900 (has links) The aim of this study was to investigate the role of the ward manager in creating a conducive clinical learning environment for nursing students. An explorative descriptive research method was employed. Findings reveal that the ward managers are generally satisfied with the way in which they handled the important role they play in facilitating teaching and learning for nursing students. They feel strongly, however, that the nursing students themselves need to be active in the learning process. While acknowledging the efforts of the ward managers in creating and maintaining the learning environment, nursing students were dissatisfied about several aspects that appeared to be lacking in the clinical environment, such as good interpersonal relations, support, exposure to practice administrative skills (for example, problem-solving and decision-making) and lack of feedback about their performance. There appears to be a need to develop more effective support structures within the learning environment so that nursing students can obtain sufficient exposure to learning opportunities. / Health Studies / M.A. (Advanced Nursing Sciences) Clinical learning Conducive clinical environment Constitute Create Effective Responsibility Role Sufficient Support Maintain 610.733 Nurse administrators Nursing -- Study and teaching

6	我國公務人員權利保障制度之研究 / The Study of Protecting Rights of R.O.C`s Public Employees 鄧如玲, Deng, Rul-Lyin Unknown Date (has links) 我國公務人員權利保障制度之研究現代國家和政府的功能，已雖時代的演進而趨向福利國家的時代，行政事務不但在數量上大量的增加，對於品質的要求也不斷的提高，使得公務人員的責任逐漸加重。為使公務人員能安心且盡心為人民服務，加強公務人員權利的保障，以維持高度的工作士氣與服務品質，已是人事行政的一項重要工作。所以本文希望研究與我國公務人員權利保障相關的課題。本文將以特別權力關係理論的演變為分析的基礎，由公務人員與國家的關係區別公務人員與一般公民基本權利的差異，並瞭解我國公務人員權利受憲法保障的情況，並就現行人事法規上的權利，及爭議中公務人員尚未享有的權利，分析現制的缺失與提出改進之建議。另外並就我國公務人員權利救濟的可能途徑: 大法官會議解釋、行政內部救濟、行政外部救濟等分析權利救濟的程序、現制之缺失及提出改進之建議，最後並輔以考試院行政爭訟案例之分析以了解我國公務人員權利救濟之現況。本文共分五章分析我國公務人員權利保障制度之問題: 第一章緒論，敘明研究動機與目的、研究內容、公務人員之意義與範圍、研究方法與限制、及論文研究架構。第二章理論基礎與相關文獻，包括特別權力關係理論、工作平等權、及以行政內部及外部救濟途徑保障公務人員權利的實現。第三章我國公務人員之權利，共分三節: 憲法保障的權利、人事法規上的權利、爭議性的權利。第四章我國公務人員權利救濟的途徑，共分四節: 大法官會議解釋對公務人具權利救濟的影響，行政內部救濟途徑，行政外部救濟途徑，案例分析。第五章結論。權利權利救濟公務人員特別權利關係司法救濟行政救濟 Right Public employee Constitute rights
7	Criminal law in Islam Rahim, Ismail 06 1900 (has links) English, with some Arabic text / After justifying my rationale for this study, I have briefly propounded anthropological and philosophical perspectives for the institution and development of law in human society. Thereafter I have focused on the criminal law of Islām. With regards to invariable penalties for certain offences and variable penalties for others I have also stressed the oft-neglected issue of rehabilitation. Besides, I have also appraised criminal procedure and then concluded by refuting objections raised against Islāmic criminal law by critics. In sum, the following comes to light: • The Islāmic laws encompass all facets of criminality. • Islām believes in nipping the evil in the bud: treating the wound and then applying the plaster. If it comes to the worst that the wound becomes incurable, then for the betterment of the patient and others, it may as well be amputated. Its aim is not to castigate the criminals; rather to reprimand them and bring reform in the society. • How crucial this topic is and how urgently it should be addressed. • How temperate the Islāmic laws are in weeding out crimes from the societies. • Crime is a crime, whether it is perpetrated by an individual or state. / Religious Studies and Arabic / M.A. (Islamic Studies) Hadith Muharib Hudud Irtifaqat Qadi Qisas Shurb kamr Tazir Ulama Ummah Offender Requirements Judge Retaliation with equality Consuming of liquor Religious authorities Nation 345.01767 Criminal law (Islamic law) Punishment (Islamic law) Criminal law -- Islamic countries
