    The current study investigated self-esteem as a moderator of the relationships between both agentic and communal narcissism and romantic attraction. The attraction to the prospective targets, and self-esteem’s influence on the relationships, differed in direction, strength, and significance

    Formulaçao de um elemento finito de cabo incorporando o efeito do atrito (Elemento de cabos escorregando)

    O trabalho apresenta a formulacáo geometricamente exata e a implementaçao computacional de um elemento finito de cabo que permite o escorregamento em presenca de atrito. O novo elemento fornece procedimentos naturais para simular o processo de montagem e a resposta aos carregamentos de estruturas de cabos em geral, além de ter campos promissores de aplicaçáo no modelamento de estruturas de concreto protendido e no estudo de oscilaçoes auto-excitáveis. Resultados de exemplos elementares sáo discutidos.Peer Reviewe

    Leaning Right or Left: The Role of Communal Narcissism in Political Orientation and Activism

    Get PDF
    This study explored the roles of communal narcissism and agentic narcissism in self-identified political orientation and activism. Results indicated that those scoring high in communal (but not agentic) narcissism were more likely to identify as political conservative and were not more likely to engage in political activism. Implications are discussed

    Implementation of a simple wrinkling model into argyris’ membrane finite element

    Get PDF
    This paper presents the implementation of a simple wrinkling/slackening model into the classical Argyris membrane element, comparing the solution performance by Newton’s iterations, using either the tangent stiffness matrix (numerically evaluated through a finite-difference approximation), or a secant stiffness matrix (obtained through the modification of the elasticity matrix, according to a projection technique which decompose deformations into elastic and wrinkle components)
