The purpose of this study is to investigate the static and dynamic risk factors for re-arrest among detained youth by examining gender, race/ethnicity, age, special education and mental health variables (i.e., anger/irritability, depression/anxiety, somatic complaints, suicide ideation, thought disturbances, and traumatic experiences). The demographic profiles of detained youth with one admit w...

Recent developments in the area of smart structures indicate that variable geometry / stiffness truss network is of fundamental importance in designing smart transformable structures and systems for space applications. This paper presents the conceptual design and dynamic modeling of a cooperative re-configurabel dual-arm robotic structure called Dual-Arm Cam-Lock Manipulator. The Manipulator i...

A dynamic domain decomposition strategy is proposed for the effective parallel implementation of combined finite/discrete element approaches. Attention is focused on the parallelised interaction detection between discrete objects. Issues including graph representation, initial partitioning and dynamic re-partitioning are discussed and a load imbalance detection and re-balancing scheme is also s...

Many analytical or computational applications, especially legacy systems, create documents and display screens in response to user queries “dynamically” or in “real time”. These “virtual documents” do not exist in advance, and thus hypermedia features must be generated “just in time” automatically and dynamically. Conversely, the hypermedia features may have to cause target documents to be gene...
