Abstract

Nebraska libraries are involved in a variety of automation and connectivity initiatives. Libraries of all sizes and types are using information technology for internal operations as well as for connectivity with other libraries and external sources. Individual libraries and groups of libraries have had success in obtaining both public and private funding to support their technology projects. Despite these successes, ongoing support is lacking to sustain and enhance library technology. The following examples highlight several projects, but do not pretend to cover all of the many individual and cooperative initiatives underway or planned.

Abstract

Describes the origin, development and evolution of Nebrask@ Online, a computer‐based electronic information and communication service, created by the Nebraska Library Commission. The 1991 Nebraska Information Partnerships Conference led to new alliances involving the Library Commission and the creation of this online service. Describes experiences in operating an online service and options considered for network development. A public/private partnership emerged as the model for network management services for access to Nebraska state government information.

Abstract

Purpose

The objective of the Contemporary Marketing Practices (CMP) research program is to develop an understanding of how firms relate to their markets in a manner that integrates both traditional and more modern views of marketing, and incorporates an understanding of both the antecedents and consequences of different practices. This paper aims to review its first decade.

Design/methodology/approach

The paper adopts a theoretical approach. It reviews the history of CMP research and its outcomes. The assessment concludes with a discussion of the program's contribution to marketing knowledge and some issues and challenges for future research.

Findings

Now a decade old, the CMP research program has undertaken research in over 15 countries. The study finds that it has made a unique contribution to marketing knowledge by bridging the gap between theory and practice.

Originality/value

By adopting a multi‐paradigm philosophy and a multi‐method approach, a broad perspective has been achieved that integrates the traditional managerial view of marketing with relational and process arguments.

Abstract

“Spirit of the West” is a phrase recently coined to announce the revival of an airline serving the western portion of the United States. It is also an expression that exemplifies the determination, neighborliness, and collaborative energies among Montana's libraries as they become connected to the twenty‐first century. The focus of this article will be on outlining the scope of activities in which Montana libraries have involved themselves as they connect to the Information Super‐highway, the hurdles they have overcome, and the directions they are planning to head in the future.

Abstract

Gives a bibliographical review of the finite element methods (FEMs) applied for the linear and nonlinear, static and dynamic analyses of basic structural elements from the theoretical as well as practical points of view. The range of applications of FEMs in this area is wide and cannot be presented in a single paper; therefore aims to give the reader an encyclopaedic view on the subject. The bibliography at the end of the paper contains 2,025 references to papers, conference proceedings and theses/dissertations dealing with the analysis of beams, columns, rods, bars, cables, discs, blades, shafts, membranes, plates and shells that were published in 1992‐1995.

Abstract

A series of composite solders in 63/37 Sn/Pb was prepared: Cu6 Sn5 (10, 20, 30 wt%); Cu3 Sn (10, 20, 30 wt%); Cu (7.6 wt%); Ag (4 wt%); and Ni (4 wt%). These composite solders were prepared by two procedures: (A) admixture with solder paste; and (B) admixture with molten solder. The original particulates and the final composite solders were analysed and characterised by SEM (scanning electron microscopy) EDX (energy dispersive X‐ray), and ESCA (electron spectroscopy for chemicals analysis); or XPS (X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy). A variety of morphological characterisations, intermetallics and porosities were noted. Good wetting was noted in all cases, and porosity was greater for method (A). The particulates all exhibited excellent binding to the solder matrix.

Abstract

Deals with the flow reversal in a buoyancy‐opposed rotating duct that causes heat transfer deterioration. An active technique of trailing‐wall transpiration is adopted to check whether it can avoid the flow separation and subsequently improves the heat transfer deterioration. Finite‐difference method is employed to solve the three‐dimensional Navier‐Stokes equations and the energy equation. Periodic conditions are used between the entrance and exit of a typical two‐pass duct for the closure of the elliptic problem. The predicted results reveal that fluid withdrawal through the trailing wall can avoid the flow separation from the leading wall of the radial‐outward duct (ROD) and thus eliminate local hot spots. In addition, the trailing‐wall suction not only increases the peripherally averaged heat transfer but also reduces the friction loss in the ROD. In the radial‐inward duct (RID), both the peripherally averaged heat transfer and peripherally averaged friction factor are augmented by trailing‐wall injection and are degraded by the trailing‐wall suction.

Abstract

TO deliver a lecture in commemoration of the Wright Brothers before the Institute of Aeronautical Sciences is a great honour of which I am deeply aware: this honour one feels is due not solely to the technical situation but to somemore subtle link between the Institute and the Royal Aeronautical Society and our two countries.
