A Finite Element Model for Predicting the Static Strength of a Composite Hybrid Joint with Reinforcement Pins
(2023-04-22)This paper presents a finite element model for predicting the performance and failure behaviour of a hybrid joint assembling fibrous composites to a metal part with reinforcement micro pins for enhancing the damage tolerance ... -
Finite Element Model Updating of a Thin Wall Enclosure under Impact Excitation
(2010)Simulation result of a structural dynamics problem is dependent on the techniques used in the finite element model and the major task in model updating is determination of the changes to be made to the numerical model so ... -
Finite generation of P-semigroups with almost G-invariant idempotents

Finite presentability of Bruck-Reilly extensions of Clifford monoids
(2007-10)Let M be a Clifford monoid and let θ be an endomorphism of M. We prove that if the Bruck–Reilly extension BR(M, θ) is finitely presented then M is finitely generated. This allows us to derive necessary and sufficient ... -
Finite size corrections for open strings/open chains in planar AdS/CFT
(2009-05-11)We identify the leading finite-size (Luscher-type) correction to the energy of open strings ending on maximal giant gravitons. In particular we obtain the leading finite size correction at weak 't Hooft coupling and in the ... -
A finitely presented monoid with a non-finitely generated group of units
(2007-08)We exhibit an example of a monoid defined by finitely many generators and defining relations, the group of units of which is not finitely generated -
FIR colours and SEDs of nearby galaxies observed with Herschel
(2010-07-01)We present infrared colours (in the 25–500 μm spectral range) and UV to radio continuum spectral energy distributions of a sample of 51 nearby galaxies observed with SPIRE on Herschel. The observed sample includes all ... -
Fire Retardancy of Natural Fibre Reinforced Sheet Moulding Compound
(2007-07)Due to environmental awareness and economical considerations, natural fibre reinforced polymer composites seem to present a viable alternative to synthetic fibre reinforced polymer composites such as glass fibres. This is ... -
A "Firework" of H2 Knots in the Planetary Nebula NGC 7293 (the Helix Nebula)
(2009-08)We present a deep and wide field-of-view (4' × 7') image of the planetary nebula (PN) NGC 7293 (the Helix Nebula) in the 2.12 μm H2 v = 1 → 0 S(1) line. The excellent seeing (0farcs4) at the Subaru Telescope, allows the ... -
Firing multistability in a locally active memristive neuron model
(2020-06-01)The theoretical, numerical and experimental demonstrations of firing dynamics in isolated neuron are of great significance for the understanding of neural function in human brain. In this paper, a new type of locally active ... -
The firm as an interactor : Firms as vehicles for habits and routines
(2004-07)This paper pursues a research agenda inspired by Richard Nelson and Sidney Winter's Evolutionary Theory of Economic Change (1982). This seminal work applied the Darwinian concepts of variation, replication and selection ... -
Firm Performance and Institutional Context: A Theoretical Exploration With Evidence From the Italian Cooperative Sector
(2010-09-15)This thesis examines the relationship between institutional context and firm performance, from both a theoretical and empirical perspective. The aim is to engage with the debate seeking to explain the observed diversity ... -
The firm's choice of HRM practices : Economics meets strategic human resource management
(2011)The authors compare and contrast two theoretical approaches to explaining a firm's choice of human resource management (HRM) practices - one from strategic human resource management (SHRM) and the other from economics. ... -
Firm-specific learning and the nature of the firm why transaction costs may provide an incomplete explanation
(2007-01-01)This article discusses the limits of a purely transaction cost explanation of the existence of the firm by pointing to additional factors. A simple heuristic model shows that firm-specific learning effects can overcome the ... -
First as Farce, then as Tragedy: art, vaudeville and modern painting after the French Revolution
(Bloomsbury Academic, 2021-07-29)What might art history look like if it was reconstructed using only primary sources? What structures, practices and discursive conventions might crop up, how would we reconcile them with existing art historical narratives ... -
First beta-decay studies of the neutron-rich isotopes Sc53-55 and V56-59
(1998-03-16)The neutron-rich isotopes Sc53-55 and V56-59 have been produced at GANIL in interactions of a 64.5 MeV/u Cu-65 beam with a Be-9 target. They were separated by the doubly achromatic spectrometer LISE3. Beta-decay half-lives ... -
First BISTRO Observations of the Dark Cloud Taurus L1495A-B10: The Role of the Magnetic Field in the Earliest Stages of Low-mass Star Formation
(2023-03-30)We present BISTRO Survey 850 μm dust emission polarization observations of the L1495A-B10 region of the Taurus molecular cloud, taken at the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT). We observe a roughly triangular network of ...
