airports are similar in their structure and functions and that is what Koolhass hints on when he talks about the contemporary city. Of major importance to Koolhass is whether it is possible to create convergence between and among cities as it is the case with airports. However‚ he mentions that‚ "Convergence is possible only at the price of shedding identity‚" (Koolhass‚ 1997). This particular statement demonstrates that‚ if cities across the globe were to converge‚ individuals would lose their sense

WORKPLACE LANGUAGE AND COMMUNICATION NEEDS (http://lmd.massey.ac.nz/publications/working_paper_no_19.pdf) In this current context‚ the study investigates language and communication issues from the perspectives of two categories: (1) EAL professionals who are employed in their field and (2) managers in companies that employ them. Questions of language and communication need to be unpacked so that language educators‚ settlement services‚ employers‚ EAL immigrants and policy makers can understand

Furthermore‚ as the frameworks converge and are improved‚ priority should be given

parameters‚ especially when more than one material is involved in the model. In addition‚ the validity or accuracy of the FE model needs to be justified‚ usually in two ways: a) Mesh convergence study - demonstrate that the mesh provides a converged result. A mesh convergence plot is essential to show the convergence of flag value with increasing number of elements. b) Compare the FE results to analytical solutions or experimental data. (This can be carried out in the next section - Results and Discussion

Bloodstain spatter pattern analysis is one of several specialities in forensic science. The analysis of the blood droplets upon contact with a surface is used to create a three dimensional space symbolizing the area of convergence of all the stains‚ this method is used to find the source of the blood. The source of the blood helps forensic analysts to understand the crime scene better and thus have an understanding of where the incident took place. A blood droplet in free

International convergence of accounting standards is not a new idea. The concept of convergence first arose in the late 1950s in response to post World War II economic integration and related increases in cross-border capital flows. Initial efforts focused on harmonization—reducing differences among the accounting principles used in major capital markets around the world. By the 1990s‚ the notion of harmonization was replaced by the concept of convergence—the development of a unified set of high-quality

difference of economy development trends to be bigger or convergence. It is well known that the proportion of tertiary industry in China is not big‚ the consumption of electricity mainly used for industry. Thus‚ to large extant‚ the consumption of the electricity can reflect the development of economy. In addition‚ Shin and lam (2004) indicated that the electricity consumption increase drives the increase of GDP. Thus‚ the report will test the convergence of Chinese per capital electricity consumption in
