“The stability of slopes varies with inclination of discontinuity surfaces such as faults‚ joints‚ bedding planes with the rock mass.” (Bray & Hoek‚ 1977). Simple sliding of the rock mass does not happen merely with the presence of discontinuity. Near location site A‚ presence of two intersecting faults and bedding planes provides wedge slope failure with a probability to occur with the one of the discontinuity “daylights” at the toe of the vertical slope of a known rock mass.

status as they move from pre-school/home to becoming a school child. Fthenkis (1998‚ pg. 11) maintains that substantial changes such as this “…can induce psychological changes”. The issue for children is how they will cope with such changes and discontinuities as they start school and how they might employ strategies for dealing with such changes. Ghaye and Pascal (1998‚ pg. 3) state that starting school in the U.K is making “…a range of potentially stressful demands”. About Transition Practitioners

alternatives. Results from two experiments indicated that teams reduce the agreement bias by facilitating impasse in negotiations with a negative bargaining zone. Study 1 found that the addition of a single teammate was sufficient for generating discontinuity between teams and solos in their ability to avoid the agreement bias. Study 2 provided support for two proposed explanations for the agreement bias. Consistent with the faulty-judgment explanation‚ the role that required the most information

Whether digital or analog‚ and regardless of their size‚ cost‚ and quality‚ all video cameras operate on the same basic principle: they transduce (translate) the optical image that the lens sees into a corresponding video picture.

Change often occurs through discontinuity and students will learn how to recognize emerging discontinuities and how to manage themselves and others through it. Resonant leadership occurs when hope‚ compassion‚ and mindfulness are parts of the relationship between the leader and the people around him/her. Students will

the structure of α-quartz‚ which is tetrahedral and shown below. At high pressures‚ a phase change occurs to a more dense octahedral structure‚ which is known as β-phase. The transition temperature is 980K. During the first-order transition‚ discontinuities can be observed. For α-phase‚ the cell parameters and volume increase significantly as temperature increase‚ but the dependency is not linearly. Its thermal expansion coefficient a is defined as α (K-1)= 2.924 x 10-5 + 2.920 x 10-10 ( T-300)2

Adaptive Shape Contour Tracing Algorithm by Emad Attalla‚ Ph.D. ABSTRACT In this paper we are going to present a new shape contour tracing algorithm called ¡§Adaptive Contour Tracing Algorithm¡¨. The algorithm can trace open and closed discontinuous digital shapes and return an ordered set of boundary points that represent the contour of the shape. Unlike other algorithms that return boundary points that are part of the traced shape‚ our algorithm returns background points that are adjacent

following diagram. However‚ as temperature increases‚ the tilting of the tetrahedral angles began to drop. This continues as it approaches 980K to the β-phase‚ where it gradually forms an octahedral structure. In the early structure transition‚ discontinuities are easily identified. Temperature starts to increase during α-phase. At this stage‚ although the dependency is not linear‚ the cell parameters and volume increase tremendously. The coefficient of the
