Faculty and Student Attitudes Toward Community Service: A Comparative Analysis

The Humanitarian Engineering initiative, sponsored by the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, at the Colorado School of Mines, is creating a program that will support engineering students in understanding their responsibility for solving community development problems that exist throughout the world. As part of this effort, data has been collected on faculty and student attitudes using the ‘Community Service Attitudes Scale,” developed and validated by Shiarella, McCarthy, and Tucker. During the fall 2004, 78 students and 34 faculty members responded to this instrument. Statistically significant differences were found between the attitudes of students and faculty, males and females, and among different age groupings with respect to service activities. A general finding was that faculty displayed better attitudes toward community service than the students.     

石油套管的壁厚公差对承载能力的影响

石油套管的强度计算是按API标准进行的，它未能反映高强度套管和尺寸公差对抗压溃能力的影响。利用弹塑性力学理论建立理想的石油套管的抗压溃能力计算公式，并考虑套管的壁厚公差对计算公式进行修正。用该方法对受均匀载荷及非均匀载荷作用的套管进行分析，并同有限元计算结果相比，两者十分吻合，说明该方法的有效性。

Influence of strain rate on interpass softening

Most laboratory simulations of hot rolling involve a scaling down of the strain rate from the much higher industrial levels. This leads to slower softening between each rolling pass, for which corrections must be made. In the present work, torsion testing simulations of “warm” rod rolling were conducted on a Ti-Nb interstitial-free (IF) steel at 840 °C and 770 °C(i.e., in the ferrite range). For this purpose, “strain rate corrected” interpass times were used, in addition to the more familiar corrections for the stress. The results are compared with those obtained from simulations using uncorrected industrial interpass times. At 840 °C, simulations using corrected interpass times led to high levels of softening between the stages of rolling, thus triggering the reinitiation of cycles of dynamic recrystallization. The initially high stress level at the start of these cycles was responsible for the large differences in the pass-to-pass mean flow stress behavior, compared with that observed when using uncorrected industrial interpass times, or continuous deformations. The differences were much less pronounced at 770 °C, where the rate of softening is much slower than at 840 °C. Predictions for softening based on the Avrami equation underestimated the softening observed using the continuous and uncorrected industrial interpass time schedules and overestimated it for the corrected ones. The former is due to the occurrence of recovery, which is not addressed by the Avrami relation, while the latter is due to the precipitation that takes place during the corrected (longer) interpass times. It was also found that simulations using continuous deformations are applicable only if the interpass softening that would be expected using the corrected interpass times does not exceed about 20 pct.

Blood parameter and heart rate response to training in Andalusian horses

The psychopathology and associated disabilities experienced by persons with schizophrenia have only partially responded to conventional pharmacological and psychosocial treatment approaches. Biobehavioral treatment and rehabilitation employs behavioral assessment, social learning principles, skills training, and a focus on the recovery process to amplify the effects of pharmacotherapy. Utilizing the Medline database, we review a selection of English-language studies published from 1970 to 1994 that support the effectiveness of each of the components of biobehavioral therapy, such as case management, psychopharmacology with behavioral assessment, psychoeducation, family involvement, and social skills training. An integrated biobehavioral therapy directed toward early detection and treatment of schizophrenic symptoms, collaboration between consumers and caregivers in managing treatment, family and social skills training, and teaching coping skills and self-help techniques has been documented to improve the course and outcome of schizophrenia, as measured by symptom recurrence, social functioning, and quality of life. A case vignette is presented to illustrate the successful integration of biobehavioral therapies into a treatment system that focuses on consumers' attempts to become increasingly responsible for recovering from illness.
