Patrick Heinemann combines and extends social psychology research on power and influence with insights from research on the use of information. He derives hypotheses on the relationships between influence strategies based on management accounting information, influence outcomes, and various moderating variables
Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2022 in the subject Engineering - Civil Engineering, grade: Summa cum laude, , language: English, abstract: Steel structures, which are made of hollow section profiles are mainly used for construction structures. There are many fields of applications for structures made of hollow section profiles. Hollow section profiles are lightweight and have got a high resistance to compression, which is an advantage for column structures. The most common profile types have squared or circular hollow cross sections. Connecting two or more pipes by welding, the joints have got different shapes. These joints are part of trusses or columns with a tree-shaped optic. The standards have got restrictions regarding the geometry, material or load cases. By choosing a node, which is excluded in the standards, designing engineers have to create their own models. This thesis is about the designing of a Y-shaped steel joint, full overlapped on top connection, which is not defined in current standards up to the time the thesis is created. In this thesis only uniplanar joints are investigated. A special focus is on the welding line, which has got a three-dimensional shape. The aim is to figure out the influence on the inclination angle between the two members on the resistance of the joint. Beside this, the profile shape and profile thickness vary to see the differences in their resistance. Square and circular hollow section profiles are in focus. To analyse the behaviour of the different steel joints, a numerical and experimental investigation is executed. Design charts are created as a medium for designing engineers to calculate the ultimate resistance in the elastic and plastic state, depending on the steel profile, thickness and inclination angle. The structure of the thesis is split into four main parts. Firstly, there is an explanation of the general topic with its difficultness. Secondly, there is the state-of-the-art presentation of literature and standards in this range. Thirdly, there is a numerical analysis of the joints. The basement of the numerical studies is detailed in pre-studies, which explain and compare different mesh types or geometrical variations. Fourthly, there is an experimental verification of the numerical tests. It is figured out, if the inclination angle increase, the resistance of the steel joint will decrease significantly. This effect is non-linear. Beside this, it is found, that the full overlapped joint with the squared profile has got a higher resistance than a comparable joint with a similar circular hollow section.
This series encourages composition work with skill-based activities and projects for Key Stage 3 pupils, focusing on integrating composing with performing, listening and appraising. The pupil book contains composition projects, from poetry to stories and pictures, with suggested frameworks.
Discusses economics, different economic systems, and personal finances, and explains how to create and interpret the charts, tables, and graphs used to display different types of information about economics and money.
This resource encourages the theory and practice of singing in schools. The photocopiable projects: encourage participation in singing; include material from a range of cultures, traditions and times; include activities for choirs and class use; and feature games and warm up exercises.
This text matches the specification for teaching A level Chemistry from September 2000. Accessible language and layout should encourage students who may otherwise find it difficult to reach good A Level standards. Extension boxes contain more advanced material for more able students.
Though Siegfried Sassoon would argue the point throughout his life, most critics regard his war poetry, written during World War I, as the best of his writings. Like many of his artistic contemporaries, Sassoon embraced the "Great War for Civilization" with great fervor, and it was this passion that he brought to his earliest writings about the war. "Absolution," his first war poem, published in 1915, summed up his feelings: "fighting for our freedom, we are free." Fighting on the frontlines, Sassoon soon came to the conviction that his war for civilization was anything but civilized. And thus his writings took on a new tone, courageously denouncing a conflict that was no longer about "defense and liberation" but was for "aggression and conquest." Through primary documents and extensive research, the current work provides critical analyses of Sassoon's war poetry. Detailed examinations of each of the so-called trench poems show how the poet and his poetry were transformed through his wartime experiences and give the rationale for the critical consensus that the Sassoon canon is among the most significant in the literature of modern warfare.
