Basic Concepts

Geotechnical performance of 'soil-structure' systems is strongly dependent on the properties of the soil and prediction of the performance of these systems in real conditions requires accurate modeling of soil parameters. With the help of high-speed computers, now it is possible to create advanced constitutive models, but large uncertainties and variations in soil properties could reduce the advantages gained by using such models. In this paper sources and types of uncertainty in geotechnical engineering practice are first presented, followed by a review of the basic concepts and terminology of geostatistics. Finally, procedures for quantification of uncertainty and for geostatistical estimation and simulation of spatially variable soil properties are presented.

Linguistic Intervention

Test-teach questioning is a strategy that can be used to help children develop basic concepts. It fosters the use of multisensory exploration and discovery in learning which leads to the development of cognitive-linguistic skills. This article outlines some of the theoretical bases for this approach and indicates possibilities for their applications in child-clinician transactions.

And Function

The search for best practices in hearing aid fittings and aural rehabilitation has generally used the audiogram and function stemming from peripheral sensitivity. In recent years, however, we have learned that individuals respond differently to various hearing aid and aural rehabilitation techniques based on cognitive abilities. In this paper, we review basic concepts of working memory and the literature driving our knowledge in newer concepts of hearing aid fitting and aural rehabilitation.
