In this contribution the theory of configurational forces is applied to a viscoplastic material model with plastic slip in the basal and prismatic slip systems of an hcp crystal structure.
Third, our study makes a distinct contribution to the theory of territoriality in organizations.

Although Chafe (1970) acknowledges Halliday's contribution to the theory of information structure, in his definition of New as "information he [the speaker] is introducing into the hearer's mind for the first time" (p.210), the emphasis on the first time clearly places this view of information within a theory of reference – a view which is maintained in more recent developments (e.g. Chafe 1995).
In view of the forthcoming Lunar mission SELENE (Japan) with geodetic experiments on board and with an optical telescope on the lunar north pole, a contribution of the theory of lunar rotation in order to study of inner dynamics is considered.
