Impulse-control or impulse and control? Is impulse-control one, two, or more constructs? Development of domain specific impulse-control (DSIC) measure
Impulse control is a well-established predictor of important life outcomes, including health, academic performance, and workplace success. However, traditional measures often conflate distinct psychological processes by failing to distinguish between the urge to act (impulse) and the ability to …

Net Impulse and Net Impulse Characteristics in Vertical Jumping
… was to explore the potential use of net impulse and its characteristics in vertical jumping to monitor athletes' performance status and responses/adaptations to interventions. Five variables were proposed as net impulse characteristics: net impulse height and width, rate of force …

Impulse ageing of polymeric materials
Impulse over-voltage is a common phenomenon in electric power systems. A switching impulse is created by a switching surge or local fault while a lightning impulse is due to direct lightning strike to high voltage plant such as an overhead line. Both impulse events create travelling waves in the …

Technique and impulse: A practical approach
Acting technique and impulse must be blended to give a complete performance. In this thesis, I will explore the relationship between acting technique and impulse in vocal work, stage combat, script exploration, and truth. Ultimately, I hope to prove the necessity of both in all of the above areas. …

Native work : an impulse of tenderness
… echoes that commitment by staying close to an impulse of tenderness discernible in Duggan-Cronin’s life-long project, and pays homage not only to Duggan-Cronin, but also to the expressive life of those who appeared in his work.

(Re) Visiting Female Entrepreneurs: An Emancipatory Impulse
This thesis aims to emancipate female entrepreneurs from the metanarrative of economic growth which has created a false dichotomy of successful male entrepreneur versus an unsuccessful female entrepreneur. This aim is pursued through a multidisciplinary and critical inquiry that destabilises this …

Impulse electrical breakdown of high-purity water
… defined and documented to consist of electrical impulses with approximately microsecond rise time and fall time greater than 65 microseconds, on approximately 81-square-centimeter-area planar electrodes with a dielectric gap of approximately one centimeter. The results of over 25,000 shots by a …

Synchronization in Impulse Based Ultra Wideband Systems
In Impulse Radio based Ultra Wide Band (UWB) systems, where sub-nano second pulses are used, synchronization is very challenging because of their short pulse duration and very low duty cycle. Coherent detection of ultra wide-band signals requires complex channel estimation algorithms. In impulse …

Added Mass and Vortical Impulse: Theory and Experiment
… (GAMC) force decomposition is derived from impulse theory using a Helmholtz decomposition of the velocity field, and is valid for rigid bodies of any shape in unbounded incompressible fluid domains. Two supporting theoretical contributions were made in the course of the derivation, and these …

Impulse loading of near-field shallow-buried explosions
Prediction of the total impulse for a mine-protected vehicle must be empirically determined for South African Paardefontein soil pit soil at the start-up phase of a new vehicle project, particularly when experimental data are not yet available for the calibration of computational efforts. The total …
