This open access book explores how children draw god around the world. It looks at children’s drawings in a large variety of cultural and religious

conclusions these results emphasize that an inappropriate decision making process pattern in a family has a significant effect on deviant behavior in adolescents. the fathers’ parenting is more strongly linked to their sons’ delinquency. so, family power structure and parent-child relationship can be considered in therapeutic interventions (prevention and treatment) for adolescents’ delinquency...

The synthesis of a high-melting temperature semiconductor in a low-temperature fiber drawing process is demonstrated, substantially expanding the set of materials that can be incorporated into fibers. Reagents in the solid state are arranged in proximate domains within a fiber preform. The preform is fluidized at elevated temperatures and drawn into fiber, reducing the lateral dimensions and br...

The core cognitive ability to perceive and synthesize ‘shapes’ underlies all our basic interactions with the world, be it shaping one’s fingers to grasp a ball or shaping one’s body while imitating a dance. In this article, we describe our attempts to understand this multifaceted problem by creating a primitive shape perception/synthesis system for the baby humanoid iCub. We specifically deal w...

We give an overview of Tutte’s paper, “How to draw a graph”, that contains: (i) a proof that every simple 3-connected planar graph admits a straight-line embedding in the plane such that each face boundary is a convex polygon, (ii) an elegant algorithm for finding such an embedding, (iii) an algorithm for testing planarity, and (iv) a proof of Kuratowski’s theorem.

The Diamedica non-rebreathing valve has been developed for use in draw-over anaesthesia and can be positioned at the common gas outlet. Its performance was evaluated against the Laerdal, Ruben and Ambu valves under laboratory conditions. Valve resistance during inspiration and expiration was simulated over a range of constant flow conditions. During flows ranging from 5 to 45 l.min(-1) , the Di...
