Team Functioning

This article proposes a three-dimensional model for conceptualizing problems in the functioning of interdisciplinary teams. The three dimensions are (a) the team as a developing and changing entity, (b) the team as a set of subsystems, and (c) the team as a functioning unit. Each dimension is described and examples of team dysfunctions within each dimension are provided. Implications of the model for researchers and practitioners seeking to improve the quality of interdisciplinary team functioning are discussed.

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.

Significant Support

Ullmann’s (1985) three-dimensional model of social responsibility disclosure is tested to determine whether it can be operationalized to help explain the quantity and quality of environmental disclosures in Australian annual reports. The stakeholder power dimension of Ullmann’s framework is significant in explaining environmental disclosures while content of the mission statement and existence or otherwise of environmental or social responsibility committees also find strong statistically significant support in the results. Ullmanns’ stakeholder theory has previously been applied to explain social disclosures in general (Roberts, 1992) and is an important theory because it introduces a measure of strategy. The current paper demonstrates how this theory can be applied to a specific social disclosure using variables that are idiosyncratically applicable to the types of disclosures.

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.

Reaction Injection Molding

A large number of rubber products are formed into their final shape by vulcanization. In particular, curing process of rubber is the final step in manufacturing many rubber products and determines both the quality of the resulting product as well as production costs. This paper is devoted to the simulation of rubber curing process in a three-dimensional model. The effects of final temperature of mold are investigated on curing process and quality of final product. The results were compared with the experimentally measured data, which confirmed the accuracy and applicability of the method.

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.

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.

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.
