Extreme temperatures and violence
In his book Civilization and Climate, Ellsworth Huntington (1876–1947) noted1 that “Almost any American or European who has travelled or resided within the tropics will confess that he has occasionally flown into a passion, and perhaps used physical violence, under circumstances which at home would merely have made him vexed.” This begs the question — why is there no violent conflict when sever...
متن کاملCold stress and the cold pressor test.
Temperature and other environmental stressors are known to affect blood pressure and heart rate. In this activity, students perform the cold pressor test, demonstrating increased blood pressure during a 1- to 2-min immersion of one hand in ice water. The cold pressor test is used clinically to evaluate autonomic and left ventricular function. This activity is easily adapted to an inquiry format...
متن کاملCold Temperatures . Will They Limit Range Expansion ?
The hemlock woolly adelgid (HWA), Adelges tsugae Annand, primarily infests trees along the eastern seaboard in USDA plant hardiness zones where the minimum low temperature does not exceed –28.8°C. Laboratory studies were done to determine the low lethal temperature of HWA collected in January, February, and March from locations within different USDA plant hardiness zones. The Mt. Tom, Massachus...
متن کاملEconomic Stress and Domestic Violence
VAWnet is a project of the National Resource Center on Domestic Violence. “Although analyses of current financial statistics in relation to reported domestic violence (DV) incidents have yet to be completed, a sizable body of research that examines various economic indicators provides a framework for understanding how economic stress may contribute to DV. At the same time, available research in...
متن کاملStress Analysis and Energy Estimation in Cold-Roll Forming Process
In this article, stress analysis and energy estimation during cold-roll forming of symmetrical channel sections have been discussed. Geometry of sheet strip is pre-estimated by a shape function. Then longitudinal, transversal and shear strains have been calculated. Using both the Levy-Mises and the Prandtl Reuss equations, and also considering the Bauschinger effect, stress distributions have b...
