Author Order and Research Quality
Southern Economic Journal © 2005 Southern Economic AssociationWe observe a great deal of heterogeneity in the manner in which author orderings are assigned both across and within academic markets. To better understand this phenomenon, we develop and analyze a stochastic model of author orderings. In our model, authors work equally hard to obtain priority in listings but final contributions are stochastic. Further, research outlets differ in their quality hurdles. In this setting, our simulation results are consistent with two empirical regularities. First, we find that the rate of alphabetization increases with the stringency with which papers are accepted for publication. Second, conditional on clearing the publication hurdle, quality increases with alphabetization. These findings arise because increases in the publication hurdle make it more likely that authors will exceed this threshold only when both contribute a high amount. This, in turn, leads to roughly equal contributions (alphabetization) and also generates a positive correlation between alphabetization and quality
New synthesis of 2,2 '-heteroarylpyrroles from heteroarylchlorocarbenes
2,2'-Pyridyl- and 2,2'-thienylpyrroles containing substituents at the 1- and 3-positions of the pyrrole ring have been prepared from the reaction of heteroarylchlorocarbenes with 1-azabuta-1,3-dienes. Laser flash photolysis of heteroarylchlorocarbene in isooctane in the presence of 1-azabuta-1,3-diene yields an azomethine ylide (lambda=550 nm) as an intermediate. The kinetic parameters for the ylide formation and further 1,5-intramolecular cyclization to the pyrrole ring have been determined. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Misusing mobile phones to break the ice: The tabletop game Maze Maestro
Performance of newly-formed project teams is often limited, or at least delayed, when team members refrain from sharing their ideas due to unfamiliarity with their peers. A variety of ice-breaking methods can help overcome this cold start, but mostly they need to be deployed and moderated by experienced facilitators. This setup is rarely an option for most undergrad project courses at university level, typically carried out in small teams. In order to help breaking the ice in this context, we developed Maze Maestro, a collaborative tabletop game in which the board is made up by attaching the displays of the team members' mobile phones to form a large maze. Each member controls a character in the maze, and the whole team has the common goal of leaving the maze together; however, this is only possible with timely communication and much cooperation. While playing, team members are encouraged to confer possible plans and share their ideas, which is the fertile ground for breaking the ice. Play testing has shown that Maze Maestro was perceived as a fun and original collaborative game. So far, results of a preliminary user study are optimistic about the ability of Maze Maestro to break the ice within newly-formed teams, without requiring any facilitator.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Computer Graphics and Visualisatio
Problem Sets for Aerospace Structures
This collection of interactive problems and solutions includes over twenty-five collections of 3-5 problems each on topics relevant to undergraduate-level aerospace structures such as: load factors, strain, stress, stress transformation and principal stresses, material properties, composites, equations of equilibrium, Airy stress function, thermoelasticity, failure theories, elastic-plastic analysis, fracture, beam bending, principal of minimum total potential energy, finite element method for beams, plate bending, buckling, structural dynamics, and aeroelasticity.
Purpose
The problem sets were developed to help faculty provide regular formative assessments to the students without any corresponding grading burden (for the faculty or TA). The assessments can be given twice a week in a typical class and can help the students get feedback on a regular basis. Problem sets supplement the open textbook, Aerospace Structures by Eric Raymond Johnson (2022) https://doi.org/10.21061/AerospaceStructures.
Author and license information
The problem sets were developed by Mayuresh Patil, former Associate Department Chair, Kevin T. Crofton Department of Aerospace and Oceanic Engineering at Virginia Tech, and currently Professor of Practice at Daniel Guggenheim School of Aerospace Engineering at Georgia Tech.
