A THREE DIMENSIONAL MODEL OF IDENTITY OF RELIGIOUSLY AFFILIATED SCHOOLS

The author gives an outline for a dynamic model of identity of religiously affiliated schools. The model is composed of three dimensions: the different actors in the school, the educational aims, content and processes and the socio-cultural context that influences the first two dimensions. The dynamic in this model is caused by the interaction of the variables in the three dimensions. Against the background of this model, the contributions of this issue on identity are outlined.

Dimensional Theory

Some previous researchers have found that affect can be described in terms of two dimensions (pleasure and arousal), while others have noted three dimensions are needed (pleasure, arousal, and dominance). The competing claims were tested by creating stimuli with factors previously demonstrated to elicit responses of arousal or dominance, asking respondents to rate the stimuli, and contrasting correlations between ratings and the stimulus factors. Under the two-dimensional theory, the planned contrasts should be zero, while under the three-dimensional theory, the planned contrasts should be nonzero. Results supported the three-dimensional model.

AbstractA three-dimensional model of the temperature and velocity distribution within any arbitrary-shaped ice mass is described. There is a mutual interaction in the model between the flow of the ice and its thermodynamics, since the flow law used in the model is temperature-dependent.Ice growth in three dimensions is governed by mass accumulation through precipitation, by mass depletion through loss of ice over the ocean, and by continuity requirements. Phase changes at the base of the ice are accounted for. The model has been applied in art exploratory manner to the Greenland ice sheet. Changes in the ice shape and temperature are presented and discussed. The basic shortcoming of the model as here presented appears primarily due to the coarse finite-difference mesh used, and to an unsophisticated approach to modelling the boundary ice.

Three Dimensional Model

This paper re-analyzes the falling body problem in three dimensions, taking into account the effect of the Earth’s rotation (ER). Accordingly, the analytic solution of the three-dimensional model is obtained. Since the ER is quite slow, the three coupled differential equations of motion are usually approximated by neglecting all high order terms. Furthermore, the theoretical aspects describing the nature of the falling point in the rotating frame and the original inertial frame are proved. The theoretical and numerical results are illustrated and discussed.

Visualization of analyzing multidimensional data is often required in order to improve perception and visibility. The purpose of this research is a multidimensional array of data representation. It is proposed to use a three-dimensional model as a tool. The methods used to represent an array of data with more than three dimensions are presented. The principle of constructing a multidimensional array cell is considered. An example of the constructed hypercube cell is given. The formulas for calculating the number of faces of the figure, the number of triangles that can be built through points, the number of internal triangles are obtained. The approach of visualization of aggregates is described. The use of color gradation to improve the convenience of perception of the cell in the analysis of the cube cells. It is concluded that the proposed model allows us to perceive each cell as an independent data element in the construction of charts for the analyzed indicators.

Encapsulation Process

We develop a three-dimensional model for capillary origami systems in which a rectangular plate has finite thickness, is allowed to stretch and undergoes small deflections. This latter constraint limits our description of the encapsulation process to its initial folding phase. We first simplify the resulting system of equations to two dimensions by assuming that the plate has infinite aspect ratio, which allows us to compare our approach to known two-dimensional capillary origami models for inextensible plates. Moreover, as this two-dimensional model is exactly solvable, we give an expression for its solution in terms of its parameters. We then turn to the full three-dimensional model in the limit of small drop volume and provide numerical simulations showing how the plate and the drop deform due to the effect of capillary forces.

Planning Problems

This paper develops conceptual tools for the analysis of planning behaviour. These are, firstly, a model of planning systems as learning systems, and then three dimensions of planning behaviour, each described by defining a pair of dichotomous concepts at their far ends: ‘blueprint’ versus ‘process’ modes of planning; ‘rational-deductive’ decision-making versus ‘disjointed incrementalism’; ‘normative’ versus ‘functional’ planning. Each of these concepts is discussed in detail, and some indicators for the analysis of planning behaviour are suggested. Finally, a more complex model is constructed which combines the three dimensions. Elements of this model are firstly the level at which planning is conducted within a hierarchy of planning systems, and secondly, the ‘planning sub-structurel, that is the technology-image reflecting the nature of planning problems and available planning technologies. From this model one can derive a number of researchable hypotheses about planning behaviour.

CHAOS IN A THREE-DIMENSIONAL VOLTERRA–GAUSE MODEL OF PREDATOR–PREY TYPE

Consistent Model

The aim of this paper is to present results concerning a three-dimensional model including a prey, a predator and top-predator, which we have named the Volterra–Gause model because it combines the original model of V. Volterra incorporating a logisitic limitation of the P. F. Verhulst type on growth of the prey and a limitation of the G. F. Gause type on the intensity of predation of the predator on the prey and of the top-predator on the predator. This study highlights that this model has several Hopf bifurcations and a period-doubling cascade generating a snail shell-shaped chaotic attractor.With the aim of facilitating the choice of the simplest and most consistent model a comparison is established between this model and the so-called Rosenzweig–MacArthur and Hastings–Powell models. Many resemblances and differences are highlighted and could be used by the modellers.The exact values of the parameters of the Hopf bifurcation are provided for each model as well as the values of the parameters making it possible to carry out the transition from a typical phase portrait characterizing one model to another (Rosenzweig–MacArthur to Hastings–Powell and vice versa).The equations of the Volterra–Gause model cannot be derived from those of the other models, but this study shows similarities between the three models. In cases in which the top-predator has no effect on the predator and consequently on the prey, the models can be reduced to two dimensions. Under certain conditions, these models present slow–fast dynamics and their attractors are lying on a slow manifold surface, the equation of which is given.

Attract And Kill

Meloidogyne incognita causes large-scale losses of agricultural crops worldwide. The natural metabolite furfural acetone has been reported to attract and kill M. incognita, but whether the attractant and nematicidal activities of furfural acetone on M. incognita function simultaneously in the same system, especially in three dimensions or in soil, is still unknown. Here, we used 23% pluronic F-127 gel and a soil simulation device to demonstrate that furfural acetone has a significant attract-and-kill effect on M. incognita in both three-dimensional model systems. At 24 h, the chemotaxis index and corrected mortality of nematodes exposed to 60 mg/mL furfural acetone in 23% pluronic F-127 gel were as high as 0.82 and 74.44%, respectively. Soil simulation experiments in moist sand showed that at 48 h, the chemotaxis index and corrected mortality of the nematode towards furfural acetone reached 0.63 and 82.12%, respectively, and the effect persisted in the presence of tomato plants. In choice experiments, nematodes selected furfural acetone over plant roots and were killed subsequently. In pot studies, furfural acetone had a control rate of 82.80% against M. incognita. Collectively, these results provide compelling evidence for further investigation of furfural acetone as a novel nematode control agent.
