Sam Shepard is one of the foremost living American Playwrights. He has always been concerned with the problem of identity, specifically the fragmented identity of man living in the postmodern era. Such characterization is evident in his plays: True West, Fool for Love, and A Lie of the Mind. Thus, the present article is to demonstrate the fragmented identity of Lee and Austin, Eddie and May, an...

This paper argues that the contribution of trade preferences to economic development needs to be reappraised in light of the growth of globalised trade in manufactures. Trade preferences may be able to act as a catalyst for manufacturing exports, leading to rapid growth in exports and employment. To do so, preferences need to be designed to be consistent with international trade in fragmented ‘...

The standard model for the dynamics of a fragmented density-dependent population is built from several local logistic models coupled by migrations. First introduced in the 1970s and used in innumerable articles, this standard model applied to a two-patch situation has never been completely analysed. Here, we complete this analysis and we delineate the conditions under which fragmentation associ...

In 2 crisp introductory chapters, editor H. Tristram Engelhardt Jr assembles evidence to support this claim. Culture wars have fragmented bioethics into rival camps. Competing groups, each adhering to a different worldview, endlessly dispute the major issues of human life: sexuality, reproduction, allocation of resources, the significance of suffering and dying. It is impossible to resolve cont...

Case studies are an essential feature of process modelling research. This work introduces a possible structure to assist in assembling and reporting the fragmented ndings of such experiences

In this paper, we introduce a computational model for the simulation of hypervelocity impact (HVI) phenomena which is based on the Discrete Element Method (DEM). Our paper constitutes the first application of DEM to the modeling and simulating of impact events for velocities beyond 5 kms-1. We present here the results of a systematic numerical study on HVI of solids. For modeling the solids, we...
