Depictions of childhood in South African autobiography, with particular reference to the 1920s [PDF]
, 1988 African Studies Seminar series. Paper presented May 1988If we wish to gain a better understanding of a particular period in South Africa's history, it is not sufficient merely to study that period, and the people who lived through it, in isolation; we ...

Shear bands and cracking of metallic glass plates in bending [PDF]
, 1997 The thickness dependence of yielding and fracture of metallic glass plates subjected to bending is considered in terms of the shear band processes responsible for these properties.

Punching strength of RC slabs with asymmetric point loads
Acta Scientiarum: Technology, 2016 This paper presents results of tests on 18 one-way reinforced concrete slabs under point loads having as main variable the transverse flexural reinforcement ratio, the loading position and the width of the slab. The response of the slabs is described and

Shear Dynamics in Higher Dimensional FLRW Cosmology
, 2014 We study the shear dynamics of higher dimensional Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) cosmology by considering a non-perfect fluid which exerts different pressure in the normal and extra dimensions. We generalise the definition of shear tensor

Biased Dark Energy Constraints from Neglecting Reduced Shear in Weak Lensing Surveys [PDF]
, 2008 The weak gravitational lensing of distant galaxies by large-scale structure is expected to become a powerful probe of dark energy. By measuring the ellipticities of large numbers of background galaxies, the subtle gravitational distortion called "cosmic ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Additive manufacturing (AM) allows great geometric freedom for lightweight components. As parts are progressively optimized exploiting potentials in AM leading in smaller material cross sections, high pressure solution treating and aging (STA) treatments show an enormous potential for strongly improving material properties.

Analytical theory of forced rotating sheared turbulence: The parallel case [PDF]
, 2008 Forced turbulence combined with the effect of rotation and shear flow is studied. In a previous paper [N. Leprovost and E. J. Kim, Phys. Rev. E 78, 016301 (2008)], we considered the case where the shear and the rotation are perpendicular.
