Comparing and Contrasting the Core Philosophical Principles of Peter Drucker and Confucianism
<p>This study chooses Drucker and Confucianism – two dominant philosophies that are core to how organization functions in Confucian societies - as representative management theories from Western and Eastern origins. In particular, this dissertation is a comparative study identifying similarities …

Análise elasto-plástica da construção de aterros
… elasto-plastic analysis the formula proposed by Drucker and Prager (1952) and Drucker (1953) and the new formulation of Kim and Lade (1988), wich uses only one plastic surface, are employed. The technique used for the nonlinear analysis is incremental, taking into account the modification of the …

Regional logistics capability and economic development of the regions in Great Britain
… heatedly discussed since half a century ago (Drucker, 1962). In recent years, logistics and supply chain management have emerged as key business concerns and moved much higher up the agenda in organisations in every industry and sector (Christopher, 2005). Adequate and reliable supply is the …

Explorations in a meaning making system: Kerry as an entrepreneurial platform and the equine sector as a cluster
… of a number of key thinkers including Kegan, Drucker, Porter and Penrose. The central themes of Kerry or the potential for economic development are built into each Essay. Essay One focuses on reflections of Kerry life - on Kerry people within and without Kerry - and events as they affected …

The design and application of a decision-making process for identification of critical curricular variables which affect optimal application of CAI in a baccalaureate school of nursing
… elements and in a distinct sequence of steps" (Drucker, 1967, p. 113). A well-designed instructional model should help a faculty make good decisions about implementing computer-assisted instruction in a baccalaureate school of nursing. The purpose of the study was to develop an instructional …

Plasticity and impact test studies on thermoplastic materials, finite element analysis and experimental correlation
… criteria, the hydrostatic pressure sensitive Drucker-Prager model, was analysed. It was observed that for both materials, the use of a classical approach for obtaining true values of stress and strain in conjunction with a Von Mises yielding criteria gave acceptable results for the studied …

Analysis of the scratch test for cohesive-frictional materials
… materials of the Mohr-Coulomb and Drucker-Prager type. Based on the lower-bound yield design approach, closed form solutions are derived for frictionless scratch devices, and validated against computational upper bound and elastoplastic Finite Element solutions. The influence of …

Geometric and Material Nonlinear Analysis of Three-Dimensional Soil-Structure Interaction
… elasto-plastic laws based on Von-Mises, Drucker-Prager, critical state, and cap criteria are incorporated in the formulation and computer code, and they can be used depending on the geological material involved. A special cap model is also incorporated to predict the behavior of the …

A análise elasto-plástica de túneis pelo método dos elementos finitos
… concepts and stress-strain behavior of soils. Drucker-Prager's model has been chosen to simulate the inelastic behavior of the medium. In the finite element analysis the isoparametric quadratic displacement method was used. In order to reproduce the physical non-linearity, the "initial stress" …

Design and stability of barrier pillars in longwall mining
… the Coulomb failure/strength approach than the Drucker-Prager failure criterion. The width of the yield zone surrounding a barrier pillar is not constant as originally assumed, but depends on the size of the panel width (width of extraction). However, its influence can be ignored for face lines …

A hybrid finite element procedure for soil-structure interaction including construction sequences
… materials. In the elastic-plastic analysis, the Drucker-Prager model is used as a constitutive law. In order to verify the computer program and to examine the accuracy of the hybrid stress model, several problems such as a beam, a plate with circular hole, and footings are analyzed, and the …

AI-Driven Suitability Modeling for Sustainable Olive Cultivation: An Environmental Assessment in a Changing Climate
<p>Peter Drucker once said, "The best way to predict the future is to create it." This idea captures the essence of using artificial intelligence (AI) to shape sustainable agricultural futures in a world facing accelerating climate change, resource depletion, and land degradation. Key crops can be …

Bible as Interface
… and animated by the interface theory of Johanna Drucker extended through a Levinasian optics of proximity, I will explore the many contact points of high surface area, the interruptive processes of collaboration, and the irreducibility to a single original text or single proper use in anarchy …

Determination of Seismic Earth Pressures on Retaining Walls Through Finite Element Analysis
… accelerations. The soil is modeled using the Drucker-Prager model for elastic-plastic properties. The dynamic pressure increment is observed for different driving frequencies, with the anticipation that an in-phase and out of phase response between the soil and structure will be achieved, …

Combining numerical simulation and machine learning - modeling coupled solid and fluid mechanics using mesh free methods
… damage model and the pressure dependent Drucker-Prager plasticity model are coupled to allow for mixed-mode failure to develop in the material. This is tested against analytical results for brittle materials, as well as a series of experimental results. In addition, the brittle fracture …
