The papers in this volume, drawing on the results of a groundbreaking survey conducted by the National Bureau of Economic Research, analyze the history, causes, and features of this crisis. The findings they report and conclusions they reach revise accepted explanations of black youth unemployment. The contributors identify primary determinants on both the demand and supply sides of the market and provide new information on important aspects of the problem, such as drug use, crime, economic incentives, and attitudes among the unemployed. Their studies reveal that, contrary to popular assumptions, no single factor is the predominant cause of black youth employment problems. They show, among other significant factors, that where female employment is high, black youth employment is low; that even in areas where there are many jobs, black youths get relatively few of them; that the perceived risks and rewards of crime affect decisions to work or to engage in illegal activity; and that churchgoing and aspirations affect the success of black youths in finding employment. Altogether, these papers illuminate a broad range of economic and social factors which must be understood by policymakers before the black youth employment crisis can be successfully addressed.National Bureau of Economic Research project report.African American youthEmploymentCongressesUnemploymentUnited StatesCongressesAfrican American youthEmploymentUnemployment331.3/46396073Freeman Richard B(Richard Barry),1943-118990Holzer Harry J.1957-144334MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910963500103321The Black youth employment crisis4352306UNINA05682nam 22007573u 450 991100670430332120230124193046.01-5231-2514-40-486-79940-9(CKB)3710000000335017(EBL)1919948(SSID)ssj0001371143(PQKBManifestationID)12433935(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001371143(PQKBWorkID)11298093(PQKB)11366212(MiAaPQ)EBC1919948(Au-PeEL)EBL1919948(CaONFJC)MIL653782(OCoLC)908988729(EXLCZ)99371000000033501720150119d2014|||| u|| |engur|n|---|||||txtccrStatics of Deformable Solids1st ed.Newburyport Dover Publications20141 online resource (676 p.)Dover Books on EngineeringDescription based upon print version of record.0-486-78993-4 Cover; Title Page; Copyright Page; Contents; Preface; Chapter 1 Foundations of Solid Mechanics; 1.1 Introduction; 1.2 Ways of thinking; 1.3 Methodology in solid mechanics; Chapter 2 Principles of Mechanics; 2.1 Introduction; 2.2 The concept of force; 2.3 Law of the parallelogram of forces-resultant of concurrent forces; 2.4 Law of transmissibility of forces; 2.5 Law of motion; 2.6 Law of action and reaction; 2.7 Equilibrium of a particle; 2.8 Summary of the principles of mechanics; Chapter 3 Statics; 3.1 Introduction; 3.2 Properties of force and moments; 3.3 Equilibrium of a particle3.4 Equilibrium of a system of particles3.5 Examples of the use of the free-body diagram; 3.6 Systems of parallel forces-center of gravity; 3.7 Plane and space trusses; 3.8 Internal forces and moments in slender beams; 3.9 Relations between load, shear, and bending moment; 3.10 General beam theory; 3.11 Torsion of a rod; 3.12 Summary; Chapter 4 Simple Statically Indeterminate Systems; 4.1 Introduction; 4.2 Principles of analysis of statically indeterminate systems; 4.3 Example: airplane landing gear; 4.4 Examples of plane trusses; 4.5 Example of thermal stresses in bolt-and-bushing assembly4.6 Example of assembly stresses in bolt-and-nut assembly4.7 Example of statically indeterminate beam; 4.8 Summary; Chapter 5 Analysis of Strain; 5.1 Introduction; 5.2 The fundamental metric tensors; 5.3 The strain tensor; 5.4 The geometrical meaning of the strain tensor; 5.5 Small strain; 5.6 The strain transformation laws; 5.7 Principal strains and principal directions; 5.8 The strain-displacement relations; 5.9 Linear strain; 5.10 The change in volume; 5.11 Two simple examples of strain; 5.12 The deviator and spherical strain tensors; 5.13 Compatibility relations for linear strain5.14 SummaryChapter 6 Analysis of Stress; 6.1 Introduction; 6.2 The concept of stress at a point; 6.3 The stress tensor; 6.4 The transformation of stress; 6.5 The symmetry of the stress tensor: moment equilibrium; 6.6 The differential equations of equilibrium; 6.7 The equations of equilibrium on the surface of a body; 6.8 Principal stresses and principal directions; 6.9 The extreme shear stresses; 6.10 The deviator and spherical stress tensors; 6.11 Summary; Chapter 7 Elasticity; 7.1 Introduction; 7.2 The generalized Hooke's Law-anisotropy; 7.3 Monoclinic material: thirteen constants7.4 Orthotropic material: nine constants7.5 Tetragonal material: six constants; 7.6 Cubic material: three constants; 7.7 Isotropic material: two constants; 7.8 Thermoelastic stress-strain relation; 7.9 Elastic constants for some materials of engineering interest; 7.10 Strain energy; 7.11 Summary: isotropic stress-strain law and energy relations; 7.12 Summary: the equations of linear elasticity; 7.13 Simple examples of solutions for equations of elasticity; 7.14 Engineering beam theory; 7.15 Summary: engineering beam theory; Chapter 8 Plastic Behavior of Solids; 8.1 Introduction8.2 Stress-strain relations under uniaxial loading conditionsWell-written, thoughtfully prepared, and profusely illustrated, this text is the work of a trio of prominent experts. The treatment builds on the mechanics background obtained from an engineering curriculum's first course in physics, providing the foundations for a study of such advanced topics in solid mechanics as the theory of elasticity, structural analysis, plasticity, and shell theory.Divided into two parts, the book begins with an exposition of the fundamentals of solid mechanics and the principles of mechanics, statics, and simple statically indeterminate systems.
