TL;DR: The authors provide a brief history of this development, indicate some of the distinguishing features of different lines of narrative inquiry, and describe a practical line of work which explicitly addresses school-based research.
Abstract: Narrative inquiry is a rapidly developing social sciences and humanities research methodology. In this paper we provide a brief history of this development, indicate some of the distinguishing features of different lines of narrative inquiry, and describe a practical line of work which explicitly addresses school-based research.

TL;DR: The term ultra-wideline NMR (UWNMR) spectroscopy is suggested to describe this set of methodologies for efficient acquisition of broad NMR powder patterns for a variety of spin-1/2 and quadrupolar (spin > 1/2) nuclides.
Abstract: Although solid-state NMR (SSNMR) provides rich information about molecular structure and dynamics, the small spin population differences between pairs of spin states that give rise to NMR transitions make it an inherently insensitive spectroscopic technique in terms of signal acquisition. Scientists have continuously addressed this issue via improvements in NMR hardware and probes, increases in the strength of the magnetic field, and the development of innovative pulse sequences and acquisition methodologies. As a result, researchers can now study NMR-active nuclides previously thought to be unobservable or too unreceptive for routine examination via SSNMR. Several factors can make it extremely challenging to detect signal or acquire spectra using SSNMR: (i) low gyromagnetic ratios (i.e., low Larmor frequencies), (ii) low natural abundances or dilution of the nuclide of interest (e.g., metal nuclides in proteins or in organometallic catalysts supported on silica), (iii) inconvenient relaxation characteris...

TL;DR: In this article, a model of the relationships among older workers' propensity to engage in development activities (development orientation), their perceptions of the development opportunities associated with their job (job development climate), their commitment to their organization, and their intention to remain with their organization was tested.
Abstract: Purpose – This study aims to test a model of the relationships among older workers' propensity to engage in development activities (development orientation), their perceptions of the development opportunities associated with their job (job development climate), their commitment to their organization, and their intention to remain with their organization.Design/methodology/approach – Separate questionnaires were completed by 395 individuals aged 50 to 70, who were in their career job and 195 individuals aged 50 to 70 who were employed in a bridge job. Both questionnaires included measures of development orientation, job development climate, affective commitment and intention to remain as well as individual characteristics and organizational characteristics.Findings – The findings supported the proposed model in that development orientation was positively related to job development climate which, in turn, was positively related to affective commitment and affective commitment was positively related to inten...

TL;DR: In this article, a model based on the hypothesis that delamination cracks are formed by the coalescence of voids at a critical depth below the worn surfaces has been proposed, where the critical depth for maximum rate of damage accumulation is determined by a competition beetween the plastic strain which enhances void growth and the hydrostatic pressure which suppresses it.
Abstract: Plastic deformation and damage accumulation below the contact surfaces play an important role in sliding wear of ductile materials. In this study, metallographic techniques have been developed and used to determine the magnitude of the shear strains and the microhardness gradients in near surface regions in an aluminum-7% silicon alloy. Under dry sliding wear conditions, both the magnitude of plastic strains and the depth of heavily deformed zones increased with sliding distance and applied load. The flow stress and the plastic strains in the deformed zones are shown to obey a work hardening law which can be expressed in the form of a Voce type constitutive equation. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies on the longitudinal sections below the worn surfaces indicated that thin flake-shaped debris particles were generated by a process of subsurface delamination occurred via cracks which originated from silicon particles within the deformed zones (but not at the contact surface) and propagated parallel to the surface. A model based on the hypothesis that delamination cracks are formed by the coalescence of voids at a critical depth below the worn surfaces has been proposed. It is shown that the critical depth for maximum rate of damage accumulation is determined by a competition beetween the plastic strain which enhances void growth and the hydrostatic pressure which suppresses it.
