Textbook in machine elements at two universities. *** Published in two languages and several variants. *** Provides students of mechanical engineering, naval architecture and electrical engineering required literature, as well as a suitable problem-solving basis for experts in engineering practice. *** This book is divided into seven chapters which deal with ( 1-st) rigid couplings, (2-nd) compensating couplings, (3-rd) flexible couplings, (4-th) friction clutches, (5-th) electromagnetic friction clutches, (6-th) hydrodynamic couplings and (7-th) special types of couplings. *** A practical application is supported by detailed descriptions of designs variants, principles of operation and calculation methods, as well as through 227 figures, 74 tables and calculation examples of flexible couplings and friction clutches. *** This textbook is the result of continual improvements on the lecture notes Couplings and clutches, starting from 2001. The book has been reviewed by prominent experts from several universities, and upon their recommendations the Croatian edition of this book was adopted as a textbook of the University of Rijeka in 2005 and then translated into English. Both variants are adopted as university textbooks of the Juraj Dobrila University of Pula in 2020/2021.*** Finally, it must be emphasized that the purpose of this textbook, although amply illustrated and comprehensive, is not one of replacing lectures, but of helping students acquire knowledge that will serve them in building their future careers. *** More at "https://university-books.eu/obsieger/couplings".

Prior studies have proven the existence of the "hearing aid effect" when photographs of Caucasian males and females wearing a body aid, a post-auricular aid (behind-the-ear), or no hearing aid were judged by lay persons and professionals. This study was performed to determine if African American and Caucasian males, judged by female members of their own race, were likely to be judged in a similar manner on the basis of appearance, personality, assertiveness, and achievement. Sixty female undergraduate education majors (30 African American; 30 Caucasian) used a semantic differential scale to rate slides of preteen African American and Caucasian males, with and without hearing aids. The results of this study showed that female African American and Caucasian judges rated males of their respective races differently. The hearing aid effect was predominant among the Caucasian judges across the dimensions of appearance, personality, assertiveness, and achievement. In contrast, the African American judges only exhibited a hearing aid effect on the appearance dimension.
