Self-centered memories: The reminiscence bump and the self [PDF]
Memory & Cognition, 2008 The self-memory relationship is thought to be bidirectional, in such a way that memories provide context for the self, and equally, the self exercises control over retrieval (Conway, 2005). Autobiographical memories are not distributed equally across the life span; instead, memories peak between ages 10 and 30. This reminiscence bump has been suggested

Seismic performance of self-centering hybrid coupled wall systems: Preliminary assessments [PDF]
, 2022 Hybrid Coupled Wall (HCW) systems consist of reinforced concrete walls connected with steel coupling beams. HCWs benefit from the superior lateral stiffness of the reinforced concrete walls, while the coupling mechanism reduces the moment demand at the ...
