Fatigue life assessment of notched laminated composites: Experiments and modelling by Finite Fracture Mechanics
In this paper, the coupled Finite Fracture Mechanics criterion is extended to assess the finite fatigue life of orthotropic notched laminated composites. The approach is validated through a comprehensive experimental program conducted on laminated composites under tension-tension cyclic loading conditions with two distinct lay-ups. For a given loading ratio, fatigue tests on plain and cracked specimens are first performed to provide the model inputs, the critical cyclic stress and stress intensity factor amplitudes. Fatigue tests on samples weakened by circular holes of two different radii are then used for blind predictions. Accurate predictions of the number of cycles to failure are achieved without the need for inverse calibration of material properties or deviation from standard testing procedures. Finally, a parametric study is performed to investigate the hole radius effect. It is worth mentioning that the proposed approach is general and can be applied to any notched geometry

Protecting Animals 36: Author Witi Ihimaera
In this very special episode of Knowing Animals I am joined by beloved New Zealand author Witi Ihimaera. Witi has written many books featuring nonhuman animals. He offers us a non-colonial lens through which to think about the human/nonhuman relationship
Rituximab therapy in nephrotic syndrome due to AH amyloidosis
This is an electronic version of an article published in Amyloid 2009, Vol. 16, No. 3 : Pages 178-180. Amyloid is available online at: http://informahealthcare.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/13506120903090940We report a patient with AH amyloidosis associated with lymphoplasmacytic leukemia that has remained in a stable state with a nephrotic syndrome for 17 months since the commencement of cyclic rituximab therapy aimed at suppression of pathogenetic gamma heavy chains. Free light chains in serum and CD20-positive cells in peripheral blood were useful as hematological markers in the patient. Rituximab might be a potent therapeutic option for AH amyloidosis associated with a B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder.Articleapplication/pdfAMYLOID. 16(3):178-180 (2009)journal articl
Master Class: Elicitation and Documentation of Intonation
This course will show students how to elicit and document intonation of unknown or unfamiliar languages. Students will learn basic principles of analyzing intonation in the framework of the Autosegmental-Metrical (AM) model of intonational phonology, and how to prepare sentences to test various hypotheses before finalizing a model of intonation

I Think I Am Philip K. Dick
For years, noted writer Laurence A. Rickels often found himself compared to novelist Philip K. Dickthough in fact Rickels had never read any of the science fiction writers work. When he finally read his first Philip K. Dick novel, while researching for his recent book The Devil Notebooks , it prompted a prolonged immersion in Dicks writing as well as a recognition of Rickelss own long-documented intellectual pursuits. The result of this engagement is I Think I Am: Philip K. Dick , a profound thought experiment that charts the wide relevance of the pulp sci-fi author and paranoid visionary. I Think I Am: Philip K. Dick explores the science fiction authors meditations on psychic reality and psychosis, Christian mysticism, Eastern religion, and modern spiritualism. Covering all of Dicks science fiction, Rickels corrects the lack of scholarly interest in the legendary Californian author and, ultimately, makes a compelling case for the philosophical and psychoanalytic significance of Philip K. Dicks popular and influential science fiction.Intro -- Contents -- Introjection -- Part I -- Endopsychic Allegories -- Schreber Guardian -- Belief System Surveillance -- Part II -- Deeper Problems -- Veil of Tears -- Go West -- Dick Manfred -- Timing -- Glimmung -- Part III -- Spiritualism Analogy -- Imitating the Dead -- Indexical Layer -- Ilse -- Hammers and Things -- Crucifictions -- Over There -- Martyrology -- Can't Live, Can't Live -- Lola -- Umwelt, Mitwelt, and Eigenwelt -- Outer Race -- The German Introject -- Part IV -- Materialism, Idealism, and Cybernetics -- Startling Stories -- A Couple of Years -- Android Empathy -- Homunculus and Robot -- ALL OF YOU ARE DEAD.
