Object permanence in dogs: Invisible displacement in a rotation task [PDF]
Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2009 Dogs were tested for object permanence using an invisible displacement in which an object was hidden in one of two containers at either end of a beam and the beam was rotated. Consistent with earlier research, when the beam was rotated 180 degrees , the dogs failed to find the object.

ON THERE AND THEN: FROM OBJECT PERMANENCE TO DISPLACED REFERENCE [PDF]
The Evolution of Language, 2008 In the current debate about the emergence of language, researchers have looked for various sources of indirect evidence, either by comparing animals and humans, by analyzing the linguistic structure of certain present-day human languages or by constructing computer models.

Baseline correction for near-fault ground motion recordings of the 2008 Wenchuan Ms8.0 earthquake
Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2012 In this study, both records of a digital accelerometer and a seismograph at a far-field station for the 2008 Ms8.0 Wenchuan earthquake were analyzed, and a pulsive noise model for acceleration record was found.

AN APPROACH TO SEISMIC PERMANENT DISPLACEMENT OF SLOPES
Doboku Gakkai Ronbunshu, 2000 A new concept of Newmark's sliding block method for predicting permanent displacements of earth slopes subjected to seismic loading is presented. Horizontal ground acceleration is used as input motion to move a rigid circular sliding block inside an embankment.

First Assessment of the Permanent Scatterer Linear Displacement Model in Airborne InSAR Time Series
, 2009 This paper presents the very first assessment of the permanent scatterer (PS) technique for airborne data. A data set of 14 SAR images at L-band, acquired over the Oberpfaffenhofen area on the same day with the E-SAR system of the German Aerospace ...

Mechanism of Permanent Displacement of Ground Caused by Seismic Liquefaction
Soils and Foundations, 1992 ABSTRACT This paper concerns with the mechanism of the permanent lateral displacement of ground induced by seismic liquefaction. The present study consists of three series of shaking table tests of both large and small scales. The test results demonstrated that the ground movement occurs in the same direction as that of the total head gradient as ...
