Relativism, Self-Centering, and Conceptual Level
Child Development, 1963Piaget has described a phase of development in middle childhood which he termed "egocentric." At this time (age 6 to 8) the child takes his own point of view as absolute and is unable to assume the point of view of others. In his investigations Piaget employed a series of questions to determine whether the child had a relativistic, as opposed to ...

Self‐centering friction spring dampers for seismic resilience
Earthquake engineering & structural dynamics (Print), 2019This paper presents a comprehensive study on self‐centering dampers equipped with friction springs. The basic mechanical behavior of individual friction springs is first understood via analytical descriptions that are verified by a preliminary ...

One rather effective way to reduce the frictional drag of fluid film journal or thrust bearings, when operating in the turbulent regime, is to introduce a “floating” member dividing the fluid film into two roughly equal parts. The average shear rate is unchanged, but the effective Reynolds number is reduced, with a corresponding reduction in friction ...
