This study examines the beliefs held by a group of adult Spanish-English bilinguals from El Paso, Texas regarding the vitality of Spanish in their community and the ways in which their own experience of being bilingual on the US-Mexico border has influenced their perceptions of the benefits and costs of fostering Spanish development in their children. Results show that parents’ positive attitudes toward Spanish did not translate into the investment of time and resources to foster Spanish development in their children nor, ultimately, into the use of Spanish by their children. Households where the mother perceived herself as having an active role in her children’s linguistic development and where she perceived both Spanish and a bilingual/biethnic identity as desirable for her children’s future were also households where children were expected to speak Spanish at home and where more opportunities for linguistic development were present. The author argues that these beliefs must be understood as a consequence of the underlying tensions present in the community, where intense linguistic and interethnic contact takes place every day.

Abstract This study extends the literature on the relationship between ethnic neighbourhood composition and cohesion, trust, and prejudice, by considering the influence of both positive and negative interethnic contact. We employ multilevel structural equation modelling, with individuals nested in neighbourhoods, using a unique dataset collected in England in 2017 amongst 1,520 White British and 1,474 Asian British respondents. Our results show that negative interethnic contact, unlike positive interethnic contact, is not related to ethnic neighbourhood composition. Specifically, White British people who live in neighbourhoods with relatively many Asian British people have, as expected, more positive but, encouragingly, not more negative interethnic contact. For Asian people, living in neighbourhoods with relatively many White people is unrelated to both their positive and negative interethnic contact. Furthermore, White and Asian people who have more positive interethnic contact score higher on perceived cohesion, general trust, and outgroup trust and lower on prejudice. The opposite holds true for White and Asian people who have more negative interethnic contact.

The Finite Element Model

Through the condition analysis of the drill rod during the mining horizontal drilling for gas drainage, the finite element model of the drill rod lateral vibration is established. The drill rod lateral vibration is related to the diameter and length of the drill rod. With the increase of the diameter of the drill rod, the natural frequency of the lateral vibration of the drill rod increases constantly. The increasing amplitude of the natural frequency at the larger diameter of the drill rod is larger than that at the smaller diameter. When the drill rod is longer, the natural frequency of the lateral vibration of the drill rod is lower. From the modal images of the drill rod, the lateral vibration of the drill rod is similar to the sine curve. During the horizontal drilling in coal seam, the drill rod contact and impact with the hole wall which will bring about the fatigue fault of the drill rod and the collapse of the hole wall.

Diffuse Support

In 1981 a higher proportion of the multinational population of Yugoslavia chose to declare “Yugoslav” in place of an ethnic identity in response to the census question on nationality than ever before. We present arguments to support the interpretation of Yugoslav identity as evidence of shared political identity, and carry out an analysis of aggregate data on the level of social and material development, political socialization, and interethnic contact in the country's nearly five hundred counties to discover the sources of that identity. We find that with certain important regional variations, Yugoslav identity seems to be the product of interethnic contact and higher education rather than the level of material well-being. These findings support an interpretation of Yugoslav identity as evidence of diffuse support for the existence of a shared political community and suggest both the sources and vulnerabilities of Yugoslav stability.

The Impact

Gears are widely used in engineering machinery. Mechanical analysis of the gears matters more much than motion analysis when they are used in heavy machinery or equipment. Dynamic simulation of the meshed gears is based on the theory of contact and impact concerning with the definition of the impact parameters and the model in ADAMS, so the dynamic simulation process is often complicated. In this paper, an effective dynamic simulation method of meshed gears was proposed by analyzing the physical significance of the impact parameters and the calculation method of the impact, and the force curve of the meshed gears was simulated. This result can provide basis for the design and manufacture of the gear.
