Quasi-static mechanical behaviour of soils used for natural turf sports surfaces and stud force prediction     

Igor Guisasola  Iain James  Ceri Llewellyn  Victoria Stiles  Sharon Dixon 《Sports Engineering》2009,12(2):99-109

The quasi-static testing of soils used in natural turf pitches yields key parameters in soil modelling, including elastic moduli, Poisson’s ratio and Mohr–Coulomb parameters for shearing resistance and cohesion in soil. The bulk strength of a Sand soil used in the construction of elite sports surfaces was found to increase initially and then decrease with increasing water content due to apparent cohesion effects. For a Clay Loam soil, more common in recreational facilities, shear strength decreased with water content. Reducing density resulted in a reduction of shear strength and elastic moduli in both soils due to reduced packing of particles reducing particle–particle contact surface area. The effect of roots on the shear strength of a Sand soil was not significant but reduced elastic moduli significantly. Horizontal forces measured during running and turning in a biomechanics laboratory were in good agreement with forces predicted using a simple quasi-static soil model for coarse-grained (Sand) soils although this was not the case with the Clay Loam soil.  相似文献

A Review of: “Understanding Healthcare Information. Robinson,Lyn.”     

Sharon Leslie 《Medical reference services quarterly》2013,32(4):424-425

Evidence-based medicine (EBM) as a health care practice is being incorporated into education programs across the spectrum of medical education to develop lifelong learning skills and to enhance the practice of evidence-based health care. Since improving the quality of patient care is the ultimate goal of EBM, EBM learning must be integrated with clinical application, and resulted outcomes must be reflected in learning transfer (or EBM practice) within the context of solving patient problems. Different factors may constitute the context or environment in which EBM is learned, practiced, and sustained. However, these contextual factors are seldom considered and examined in the development, implementation, and evaluation of EBM instruction for learners at different levels. This article will introduce several contextual factors as tips and strategies that affect EBM learning and transfer. Also included in the article are recommended practices for designing effective EBM instruction that would contribute to a sustainable change in learner behavior.  相似文献

Coming of Age Too Soon: Journalistic Practice in U.S. Newspaper Coverage of “Early Puberty” in Girls     

Sharon R. Mazzarella 《Communication quarterly》2013,61(1):36-58

Following from a 1997 study documenting that U.S. girls were developing secondary sex characteristics (i.e., breasts and pubic hair) earlier than in previous generations, this qualitative and quantitative content analysis of U.S. newspaper coverage of early puberty in girls concludes that newspapers have framed the phenomenon as one in which girls' bodies have transgressed culturally prescribed dictates of childhood innocence. Although not necessarily evidence of a specific and unique moral panic, such coverage is (a) part and parcel of a larger and ongoing moral panic about youth growing up too fast and (b) further evidence of the kinds of journalistic practice employed when covering medical stories, in general, and “sexual health” stories, in particular.  相似文献   

The hollowed-out university? A critical analysis of changing institutional and academic norms in UK higher education     

Alan Cribb  Sharon Gewirtz 《Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education》2013,34(3):338-350

This article argues that UK universities are at risk from a process of ‘hollowing out’ – that is, of becoming institutions with no distinctive social role and no ethical raison d'etre – and that this is a process which undermines the possibilities for meaningful institutional and academic identities. It begins with a condensed, and necessarily partial, review of recent UK higher education policy trends to indicate the historical context and direction of change and to highlight the growing separation of management and academic agendas and the linked rise in gloss and spin compared to academic substance. In the remainder of this article we focus on the normative dimension of these changes and unpack their implications for the nature of the university and of academic work. In so doing, we illustrate the breadth and depth of the threat posed by ‘hollowed-out’ universities, indicate alternative, more positive currents and call for a ‘re-valuation’ of the UK university.  相似文献
