The impact of the structural adjustment
Journal of Social Development in Africa, 2002This article examines the effects of structural adjustment programmes (SAPs) on Kenyan society. A series of economic and political reforms initiated by the World Bank and International Monetary Fund in Kenya since 1988 and especially after 1991 has transformed many aspects of the daily life of Kenyan people.

Impact on composite structures
The Aeronautical Journal, 2004The problem of impact damage in laminated composite structures, and the consequent reduction in residual strength, has been a topic of continual research for over two decades. The number of journal papers on the subject now runs into four figures and most have been conscientiously reviewed by Abrate(1991, 1994, 1998).

The Charlevoix seismic zone (CSZ) in Quebec has the highest number of earthquakes in eastern Canada, with cataloged events diffusely distributed between the St. Lawrence paleorift faults. In this study, we relocate 1242 out of 1639 earthquakes in the CSZ

Detrital shocked minerals can provide valuable residual records of eroded impact structures. Recent studies have reported shocked minerals in modern alluvium in a subtropical climate from the deeply eroded 2.02 Ga Vredefort Dome impact basin in South ...

Structural Impact is concerned with the behaviour of structures and components subjected to large dynamic loads which produce inelastic deformation. This field is of particular interest for the crash-worthiness design of aircraft, buses, cars, trains, ships and marine structures, and the energy absorbing characteristics of various components for a wide

Impact of structure on photogating
Journal of Applied Physics, 1996In previous reports, we predicted with computer simulation that photocarriers from blue bias light can contribute under certain conditions to the quantum efficiency in the red wavelength part of the spectrum for hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) p-i-n and Schottky barrier structures.

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1969
NEW SIDE SAFETY STRUCTURAL CHANGES HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED FOR SOME 1969 MODEL GENERAL MOTORS CARS. THE RESEARCH COVERED TWO YEARS, DURING WHICH TIME CRASH SITUATIONS WERE SIMULATED AND ANALYZED, FIELD DATA WERE STUDIED, AND VARIOUS APPROACHES TO SIDE PROTECTION WERE INVESTIGATED.

On the structure of frictional impacts
Acta Mechanica, 2017Many processes in machines and mechanisms are accompanied by impacts with friction. They arise by short-time contacts between two or more bodies, and they generate energy losses mainly due to friction in tangential contact directions. During the last three decades, a couple of impact models based on the theory of rigid body contacts were established ...

Impact on a head-neck structure
Journal of Biomechanics, 1976Abstract An analytical and experimental study was executed involving non-destructive, axisymmetric impact on a fluid-filled shell constrained by a viscoelastic, artificial neck—a system intended to simulate a human head-neck structure. The shel material was considered to be homogeneous, isotropic and elastic, while the fluid was regarded as inviscid ...

Impact Structure and Morphology
2010The Mjolnir crater (Fig. 3.1) was first interpreted as an impact structure by Gudlaugsson (1993) based on its geophysical signature and overall geological setting. This inference was derived from a limited amount of multichannel seismic profiles, and regional gravity and magnetic profiles.
