Abstract: The advantage of 3D discontinuous deformation analysis (3D DDA) is the rigorous contact conditions on the interaction of 3D blocks. These conditions are enforced by the penalty function convention; however, inappropriate penalty parameters easily generate… read more here.

Abstract: Effectively maintained inequality (EMI) was proposed as a general theory of inequality. While the theory flows from a decades-long tradition of studying social background effects on educational attainment, it also has resonances with theories in… read more here.
