A new study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, has solved a century-old conundrum of how plants internally signal stress. By understanding how plant communication ...

Similarly, in his Behavior Engineering Model Gilbert suggested that deficiencies in management are the ultimate cause of deficiencies in employees’ performance. That is, both Taylor and Gilbert ...

Nicknamed "Galloping Gertie" for its tendency to bend and undulate, the Tacoma Narrows Bridge had just opened to traffic on July 1, 1940. In a now infamous failure, in the face of moderate winds the ...

To compute stress, an engineer needs to describe ... and skepticism toward mathematics − the bedrock of many engineering models. Developing engineering judgment is difficult, and it usually ...
