Abstract:
Attachment behaviors of 105 toddlers were observed as the children separated from significant caregiver(s) at child care. Analysis indicated that children attached to a transitional object and using the object when separating engaged in ritualistic touching behaviors directed at a variety of targets. Results lend some support to the notion of transitional objects facilitating separation and reducing anxiety in mildly stressful situations.

Abstract:
Using numerical experiment the gas flow in the gravity field through a plane porous object with heat sources inside and partial closure of the object's outlet has been investigated and compared with axisymmetric case. The influence of partial closure of the object's outlet on the cooling process of the plane porous objects with a non-uniform distribution of heat sources has been analyzed by means of computational experiment. It has been revealed that effect of the top cover on a cooling process of the plane porous objects is qualitatively the same as in the axisymmetric objects, but quantitati

Abstract:
In a monotonous travelling environment, the single-vehicle run-off-roadside accidents occur easily. The injuries and fatalities caused by those accidents are significant components of the annual road casualties. The causation is the complex interaction of the visual effects on the roadside objects’ conspicuity. So the conspicuity enhancement needs to be considered in the roadside objects design to provide a temporary restoration of alertness and vigilance to drivers. Factors contributing to the conspicuity of the roadside objects were analyzed in this paper. A driving simulator study was condu

Abstract:
Using an object decision task, event-related potentials (ERPs), and minimum norm current source estimates, we investigated early spatiotemporal aspects of cortical activation elicited by line drawings that were manipulated on two dimensions: authenticity and typicality. Authentic objects were those that match real-world experience, whereas nonauthentic objects were “doctored” by deletion or addition of features (e.g., a camel with its hump removed, a hammer with two handles). The main manipulation of interest for both authentic and nonauthentic objects was the degree of typicality in the objec

Abstract:
If, over time, the capacity and ability to make objects is replaced with importing products from other nations; then, when international borders are restricted or even closed, the provision of goods becomes a significant challenge. Observation of the response by Australian manufacturers as they pivoted their activities to address shortages of key objects needed during the COVID-19 pandemic highlights the value of this sector in the making of objects that are both complex and not so complex. Complex objects have long been revered due to their high value, and non-complex objects are generally less valued. However, non-complex objects have an equally important role to play, as was highlighted when borders and supply chains were disrupted due to the pandemic. This chapter will shed light on how the making of objects both complex and not complex should together be supported to maintain and grow the ability and capacity for a nation to provide for its object-based needs, particularly during difficult times.

Abstract:
This chapter examines international courts’ premises as objects of international law through the case of the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights. When creating an international court, states become legally obligated to supply its physical premises—a functional and symbolic resource that underpins the court’s legal authority and influence. Drawing on archival evidence, this chapter analyses the African Court’s significant challenges in securing this important resource from political actors within the African Union and Tanzania, the court’s host state. It shows that, with international law and courts, there can be a considerable gap between states’ commitment and compliance, and between legal ambition and political reality. This gap, however, can mobilize court officials to assert their needs for resources and, more generally, the significance of their mandate. Examining international courts’ premises, therefore, can elucidate the tensions between law and politics embedded in international justice specifically and international law more broadly.

In this work, we use multi-link mechanisms with sufficient actuators to be controlled as object and a series of simple 1-DoF passive manipulators to perform such a process. Control of the object, dynamic and motion planning of the system, and stability in presence of impact are significant issues in this study.

Abstract:
Functionally Gradient Materials (FGM) smoothly transition from one material to another within a single object, allowing engineers to customize the physical response of different regions of the object by modifying the material composition at each region. New FGM research makes design, manufacturing, and use of FGM objects a promising alternative to homogeneous objects or composites with one direction of gradation. Heterogeneous anisotropic artifacts can be manufactured with specific 3D printing processes and potentially bring significant increases in functionalities. However, many challenges ex

A community-based learning object repository supports the sharing and collaboration of learning object development within discipline or topic area communities. The repository is built using an object-oriented method and implemented using JADE, an object-oriented technology platform. The repository is a software system aimed at improving the creation, collection, quality assurance, and ultimately the accessibility of learning objects. The initiatives regarding learning objects and the double blind review process for research publications are the two key influences on the learning object reposit

Abstract:
This paper describes an algorithm for automated design of multi-stage molds for manufacturing multi-material objects using multi-shot injection molding process. The algorithm described in this paper is a significant improvement over our previous algorithm [15] that worked on multi-material objects with simple planar interfaces. In the multi-stage molding process, the desired multi-material object is produced by carrying out multiple molding operations in a sequence, adding one material in the target object in each mold-stage. Each mold-stage can add only one type of material. Therefore, we nee

Abstract:
This paper presents a principled way for dealing with occlusions in visual tracking which is a long-standing issue in computer vision but largely remains unsolved. As the major innovation, we develop a learning-based jump-diffusion process to jointly track object locations and estimate their visibility statuses over time. Our method employs in particular a set of jump dynamics to change object's visibility statuses and a set of diffusion dynamics to track objects in videos. Different from the traditional jump-diffusion process that stochastically generates dynamics, we utilize deep policy func

Nowadays, the amount of information grows in an exponential way, mainly because of technological advances in media. This scenario claims for the development of different skills in order to increase learning abilities, making them personal and customizable. Such factor is significant in a changing society, which implies in a range of mechanisms which would allow to identify, in a non-intrusive way, which learning style some specific student would prefer to perform in order to build knowledge from some learning object under a learning context.

We used eye tracking to measure visual attention to tobacco products and pro- and anti-tobacco advertisements (pro-ads and anti-ads) during a shopping task in a three-dimensional virtual convenience store. We used eye-tracking hardware to track the percentage of fixations (number of times the eye was essentially stationary; F) and dwell time (time spent looking at an object; DT) for several categories of objects and ads for 30 adult current cigarette smokers. We used Wald F-tests to compare fixations and dwell time across categories, adjusting comparisons of ads by the number of each type of a

Abstract:
This article describes the "Dimming effect" that is produced by the Doppler effect applied to a quantity of individual photons arriving to a receiver from a moving source of light. The corpuscular-wave dualism of light suggests that the well-known Doppler effect, which is currently applied only to the wave component of light, should also be considered for the corpuscular component of light. Application of the Doppler effect on a quantity of photons leads to the "Dimming Effect" - as the faster light source is moving away from observer - the dimmer its brightness appears.
