Linguistic Therapy of Evaluation and the Assimilation Model

2014

This theoretical article examines possible points of convergence between the assimilation model and linguistic therapy of evaluation (LTE), insofar as the former describes the process of change and the latter, as a form of cognitive therapy, considers the therapeutic conditions that facilitate it. In particular, the argument focuses first on why a voice becomes problematic from a LTE conceptualization. Second, the article explains how the therapeutic aims of LTE could contribute to a linguistic perspective on the assimilation model, focusing on how a dialogue between voices in the self could occur. Finally, the article will include a theoretical review of the assimilation stage of insight, …

Extensional flow of HDPE/LDPE blends

1982

Elongational viscosity data, obtained through the converging flow analysis by Cogswell, are presented for two types of HDPE/LDPE blends at various compositions and different temperatures. The results relative to the homopolymer parents compare favourably with literature data obtained also with different and more sophisticated techniques. Those relative to blends show peculiar features for the two cases: when the newtonian viscosity of the LDPE is higher all the blends show a behaviour typical of the LDPE with a maximum in η el /η0 enhanced at small percentage of HDPE; when the newtonian viscosity of the LDPE is similar to that of the HDPE there is only a gradual change in the properties.

The cognitive therapy of evaluation: Therapeutic techniques-[2]

1991

Abstract The main aim of this paper is to introduce the techniques used in cognitive therapy of evaluation. The Cognitive therapy of evaluation is being developed from the theoretical background of general semantics theory and it is a therapy based on language as an instrument of cognitive processes, and on the role it plays, through word-facts identification, in the development and treatment of emotional problems. The main techniques developed (abstraction orders and the extensional devices) and other therapeutic issues are introduced and explained.

Influence of long chain branching on the elongational behaviour of different polyethylenes and their blends

1986

Elongational data on a series of polyethylenes with different structure and on their blends are presented in order to correlate the extensional behaviour with the long chain branching degree.

Contrôle géodynamique de la sédimentation argileuse du Callovien-Oxfordien moyen dans l'Est du bassin de Paris: influence eustatique et volcanique

1999

The Middle Callovian to Middle Oxfordian clay deposits drilled in the eastern Paris Basin (borehole HTM 102, ANDRA) show a strong mineralogical change occurring in the lowermost Oxfordian (Scarburgense subzone, Mariae zone). Such a change probably results from the initial development of connections between the young Atlantic Ocean and the Paris Basin. A bentonitic layer identified close to the boundary between Lower and Middle Oxfordian and also recognized in the subalpine Basin (South-East of France) at the same age, reflects a volcanic activity probably resulting from an extensional regime located in the North Sea.

Limiting concepts in extensional flow

1975

A characteristic feature of extensional flows is their potential capability of determining a stable, oriented structure in liquid materials containing elongated particles. With reference to flexible linear macromolecules, either in solution or as polymer melts, the limiting conditions under which such an oriented structure is actually possible are critically reviewed. It is seen that orientation can be obtained either when entanglements are present, i.e. when the polymer molecules form some sort of network, or, if the molecules behave entirely individually, only under very special circumstances. Further, if the objective is the “freezing” of the oriented structure in a partly crystalline, h…

A comprehensive experimental study of the rheological behaviour of HDPE.

1986

Extensional properties of four high density polyethylenes with different molecular weights and molecular weight distributions are presented. The samples have already been well characterized in shear and non-isothermal extensional flow. The data were collected at 180 °C for elongational rates between 3 · 10−1 and 10−4s−1. Some qualitative and quantitative generalizations of the results are given.

On Extensional Fuzzy Sets Generated by Factoraggregation

2014

We develop the concept of a general factoraggregation operator introduced by the authors on the basis of an equivalence relation and applied in two recent papers for analysis of bilevel linear programming solving parameters. In the paper this concept is generalized by using a fuzzy equivalence relation instead of the crisp one. We show how the generalized factoraggregation can be used for construction of extensional fuzzy sets and consider approximations of arbitrary fuzzy sets by extensional ones.

The effects of post-orogenic extension on different scales: an example from the Apennine-Maghrebide fold-and-thrust belt, SW Sicily

2003

Many structures produced under one single deformation regime, namely extensional, contractional or strike-slip, exhibit remarkable geometrical analogies when analysed at different scales. By contrast, field examples that illustrate the scale effects on structures resulting from superimposed deformations, which were produced under different tectonic regimes, are rare. Yet the change from contraction to extension is known to occur often in the most thickened portions of the continental crust. The Apennine–Maghrebide fold-and-thrust belt of Sicily shows many examples of post-orogenic extensional deformations. Composite structures, resulting from late normal faults that offset folds and thrusts…
