Abstract: Shelf angles, supporting masonry on a structural frame, deflect due to the weight of the masonry and may also deflect due to differential movement between the masonry and the frame in the absence of an adequate expansion ...

Abstract: The interaction of a basic state flow consisting of a planetary-scale easterly wave superimposed on a uniform easterly zonal wind with an isolated topographic feature is examined by numerical integration of the shallow ...

Abstract: The motion of a barotropic vortex in the vicinity of a large-scale topographic feature is examined through numerical integration of the shallow-water equations in an equatorial beta-plane channel. The topographic parameters ...

Abstract: The intellectually based effectiveness is differentiated from the emotionally based effectiveness of the manager. Although they are obviously interrelated, the required outcomes of a manager's behavior are largely not a ...
