Creating a Comparative Map of Relative Power for DC ARC Flash Methodologies
… electrical industry for many years, it is only relatively recently that standards by the IEEE have been established on calculating the amount of energy behind an arc flash event. However, these standards only apply to AC systems, where extensive testing and research have been performed. Although …

Constructing a Theory of Power-Relevant Dyadic Helping and Aggressing: A mixed-methods study
… the agent and the recipient of the behavior. Relative power may be a critical aspect of dyadic relationships as evidenced by the research on bullying and related outcomes. However, a review of the helping and aggression literatures shows that relative power between agents and recipients of …

Exploring Factors in the Relationship Balance Assessment
… studies have highlighted the role of gendered power in relationships, many assumptions have not been quantitatively tested due to a lack of measures for power. This study uses exploratory factor analysis to construct a dyadic assessment of relative power and equality in relationships. This …

QEEG and MMPI-2 patterns of adults reporting childhood sexual abuse: Determining differences and predictor models.
… models were derived from MMPI-2 scales, alpha relative power at each of the 19 sites in the International 10/20 electrode placement system, as well as alpha/delta, alpha/theta, and alpha/beta ratios at each of the 19 sites. A total of 46 participants were included in this study, 24 from …

Computational complexity of random-access models
The relative power of several computational models is considered. These models are the Turing machine and its multidimensional variant, the random access machine (RAM), the tree machine, and the pointer machine. The basic computational properties of the pointer machine are examined in more detail. …

No contest: theorizing power through aspects of health and social care policy in the wake of the demise of the internal market in NHS Wales
… and Haugaard and Clegg (2009) have argued that power is the most central concept in the analysis of organization and organizing. The desirability of further developing the theorization of power in health and social care policy in the United Kingdom has been identified in a number of recent …

Nuclear Weapons and Proxy Conflict
… between nuclear states, the desire for relative power within the international system forces states to compete indirectly through proxies or surrogates. Such behavior was prevalent during the Cold War and can be seen currently in the emerging security environment. Given such evidence, …

Phenotypic And Electrophysiologic Characterization of a Mouse Model of Fragile X Syndrome
… at the LFP was strongly reduced in Fmr1 KO mice. Relative power in the delta range frequency band of LFP activity was significantly reduced in the neocortex of Fmr1 KO mice. Furthermore, relative power in the beta frequency band was significantly higher in Fmr1 KO compared to WT mice. Our …

Face Management and the Role of Interpersonal Politeness Variables in Euphemism Production and Comprehension
… adopted the speaker's role. The addressee's relative power (age and/or job status) and social distance were manipulated as independent variables across separate experiments. Participants selected either a euphemistic or neutral phrase to complete the speaker's final utterance. In Experiment …

Relationships between sprint performance, power output and fatigue
… was set at 0.12kg/kg of bodyweight. Peak power (PP), average power (AP), time to peak power (TTPP), power fatigue rate (PFR), and power fatigue index (PFI) were computed using a microcomputer system. In addition, PP,AP, and PFR were adjusted for total bodyweight (PP/kg, AP/kg, PFR/kg). On …

The effects of grammatical structure and feelings of power on risk behavior prevention
… interaction can indicate and alter the relative power levels of each dyad member. The current research examined the effect of grammatical category (question vs. assertion) on the outcomes of an interaction in which one member is designated to help the other change a risky behavior. In …
