A Theoretical Model for Captive Columns in Bending
<p>A theoretical model for the determination of the beam stiffness of a captive column loaded as a simple-supported beam with a concentrated midspan load is described. A captive column is a high strength, light-weight composite structural member. Due to the composite nature of a captive column, the …

Spirituality at work: The development of a theoretical model
… psychology, and subsequently developing a theoretical model that investigates three questions: a) what antecedents lead individuals and organisations to seek spirituality at work?, b) what are the perceived spiritual preferences (needs) of individuals and how are those preferences fulfilled …

A Theoretical Model for Calculation of Molecular Stopping Power
<p>A modified local plasma model based on the work of Linhard-Winther, Bethe, Brown, and Walske is established. The Gordon-Kim's molecular charged density model is employed to obtain a formula to evaluate the stopping power of many useful molecular systems. The stopping power of H<sub>2</sub> and …

Enabling Theoretical Model Based Techniques for Simulating Large Scale Networks
We develop a fluid model of describing the data transmission activities in IEEE 802.11-operated WLANs, and used it to explore whether or not fluid model-based simulation is effective in simulating WLANs. Fluid model based simulation is not well-suited for studying the network behavior under light …

An investigation of a theoretical model of willingness to donate blood
… literature review and focus groups, a conceptual model of "willingness to donate blood" was developed. The model included personal values, knowledge about blood donation, perceived risks associated with donating blood, and attitudes towards blood donation, as antecedents to willingness to donate.
