...central hole. Because of symmetry we need only model a quarter of the plate. The full plate is 1.0 m × 0.4 m with a thickness of 0.01 m. The central hole has a diameter of 0.2 m. The plate is made of steel with a Young’s modulus of 2.07×10 11 N/m 2 and a Poisson’s ratio of 0.29. The horizontal tensile loading is in the form of pressure of 1.0 Pa (N/m 2 ), along the...

...and CoPs. This re-engagement with the PFMS framework also illustrates iteration as a central principle of STiP. Systemic practice is characterised by iteration – a form of repetition. Iteration involves taking the output of a process and using it as an input for the same process. Applied to learning about practice, this means that you repeat a process of learning on top of the result of prior learning processes, and this ......

...central character who’s directly impacted by climate change, you can look at it and you can just take the subject in a different way. I had an idea for climate change in the Arctic, for example, where if you look at it slightly simplistically, as things gets warmer it actually gets better for polar bears. If you want to create a good habitat for bears to hunt seals...
