The Applicability of Video Self-Modeling for Adults With Developmental and Intellectual Disabilities
… food spillage on the person and appropriate napkin use. Data were graphed and analyzed on the basis of level, trend, and variability. Results indicated that the intervention was successful with Participant 2 on the appropriate napkin use variable, but not on food spillage on the person. …

Shear fatigue of adhesively bonded frictional interfaces in high-strength steel
… The experimental method is based on the modified napkin ring specimen, which involves a bonded annular contact interface subjected to a well-defined and uniform stress state of constant normal stress and alternating shear stress. Experiments are used to identify the fatigue failure processes in …

Comparing In Situ and Bulk Constitutive Properties of a Structural Adhesive
… performance. In situ testing was performed on a napkin-ring specimen loaded in both tension and torsion. Stress-strain relationships in both shear and normal were developed and bulk and in situ adhesive performance was compared. Observations from testing were: 1. Bulk shear and in situ shear …

Image-Enabled Discourse: Investigating the Creation of Visual Information as Communicative Practice
… the creation of ad hoc visualizations (i.e., "napkin drawings"). A model of image-enabled discourse is introduced, which positions image making as a specialized form of communicative practice. Multimodal analysis of video-recorded conversations focused on identifying image-enabled communicative …

The selection of adhesives and composite matrix resins for aircraft repairs
… and more cheaply than the thick adherend or napkin ring tests usually advocated. From the results obtained it was possible to suggest specifications for both composite matrix resins and adhesives for making bonded metal or composite joints. These should lead to the development of better …

How visual representations affect undergraduate students’ use and understanding of engineering concepts during problem solving
… Whether sketching an idea on the back of a napkin, drawing schematics on a whiteboard, or using computational tools to understand unobservable phenomena, engineers need to be able to solve problems and communicate their knowledge with a variety of visual representations. Research into how …
