Exploring the edge of electromagnetism using extreme fields
… the eects of spin under the in uence of extreme elds. Born-Infeld-like theories are studied in the context of possible slow light experiments. Maximum amplitude plasma waves are considered as a possible testing ground for nonlinear electrodynamics with regards to electron energy gain. Finally the …

Plasticity as a depinning phase transition
… dislocation dynamics (DDD) model and a phase eld crystal (PFC) model in two dimensions. Below a critical ( ow) stress, the dislocations are pinned/jammed within their glide plane due to long-range elastic interactions and the material exhibits plastic response. Above this critical stress the …

Functional impairment in South African children with Obsessive-Compulsive disorder and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactive Disorder
… was undertaken to identify any discernible eld or wave in the low frequency EM spectrum, focusing particularly on the magnetic eld. The work published by Soloviev in 2002 and Adushkin in 2004 served as guidelines on test procedure and setup. Testing of this nature was not found in the …

Impact of regulation on trucking carrier prices and capacity
… of trucking industry due to the introduction of ELD mandate. This mandate requires truck drivers to record their working hours in a specified electronic device instead of a pen and paper method. This thesis utilizes the change in average truck driver working hours, cost of ELD equipment and …

An Eulerian-Lagrangian finite element method for modeling crack growth in creeping materials
… The mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian description (ELD) kinematic model is shown to have several desirable properties for modeling inelastic crack growth. Accordingly, a variational statement based on the ELD for history-dependent materials is developed and a new moving-grid finite element method …

Improving the Reading Level of Middle School English Learners in English Language Development Classes.
… 73% of ELLs attend English Language Development (ELD) classes kindergarten through grade six, and 27% are in these classes from grades seven through twelve, due to a different language being spoken at home (CalEdFacts, 2016). The objective of ELD classes is for students to become proficient in …
