Youth with weak family ties and living without both biological parents are significant predictors of delinquency and drug use (Barfield-Cottledge‚ 2015). Hirshi (1969) theorised that the social bond has four elements: attachment‚ commitment‚ involvement and belief (Cunneen et al.‚ 2015). Attachment refers to ties of affection and respect to family and friends in one’s life (Cunneen et al.‚ 2015). Bill has described his mother as being

Preventing crime in a neighborhood can be easily done with a neighborhood watch program because it involves all members of a society. The Social Control Theory‚ or Social Bonding Theory‚ suggests that interactions and relationships between individuals are supported by bonds of commitments‚ norms‚ beliefs and values. If these bonds are strong enough‚ they can then encourage individuals to not break the law. An important fact to point out is that burglars will usually pick a target from a place that

Control Theory The Control Theory can also be used to explain the crimes committed by Briere. Control theorists begin with the premise that all people will commit crimes if there are not adequate social controls to prevent it. The question therefore would not be why did Briere grab Holly on that fateful spring day‚ but what prevented him from doing it prior to his 35th year. According to Detective Greenaway‚ one of the most sobering revelations during the investigation of this offence was the discovery

How process control system help manages the plant operation? (Start from process raw material fed into the process to its final state of production.) Process control system must be installed to make sure that distillation column to operate well for achieving required production rates and product quality. Current application for distillation control is based on linear controller such as Proportional (P) and Proportional-Integral-Derivative type controller. Each column has a control system made

2. Dual-loop Control of a Grid-Connected Inverter In this section‚ the modeling and control of a grid-connected inverter with dual-loop control using the capacitor current feedback is described. Although‚ this issue has already been addressed in available literatures‚ the goal is introducing a simplified block diagram which make designing controllers easier. A grid-connected inverter with the LCL filter is shown in Fig. 1. The LCL filter consists of an inverter-side inductor L1‚ a filter capacitor
