Delamination crack originating from transverse cracking in cross-ply composite laminates under extension
Based upon the Stroh formalism for anisotropic elastic materials and upon the method of eigenfunction expansion, the stress redistribution due to delamination cracks originating from transverse cracking is examined from [90/0]s and [0/90]s laminates under extension. The structure of the solution, in the form of a series expansion, is determined from the eigenvalue equation resulting from appropriate near-field conditions. To complete the solution, use is made of a boundary collocation technique in conjunction with the eigenfunction series that includes a large number of terms, enough to represent the elastic state throughout the appropriate domain concerned. The fracture mechanics parameters, such as stress intensity factors and energy release rates, are calculated and the major characteristics of stress distribution are discussed. The stability of delamination cracks is examined for varying ratios of ply thickness in terms of the energy release rate.The authors gratefully acknowledge the financial support for this work, provided by the Korea Science and Engineering Foundation (KOSEF)

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
