Foundries casting in lost moulds, often buy wooden, metal or plastic patterns (for their mould design) and operate an in-house pattern maintenance and repair shop.
We assert that the current 'capture/recapture' pattern maintenance model is suboptimal for adapting patterns to language evolution and propose a new 'capture/modify/recapture' maintenance cycle as a more effective approach.
The results of an international survey, with responses of 317 high-tech companies, suggest that not these three EKI-stages, but four organizational effectiveness functions (goal attainment, pattern maintenance, adaptation, and integration) account for most variation in responses.
No significant effect was observed regarding 'visuospatial pattern maintenance'.
A normal imprinting pattern, maintenance of imprint (MOI), was most frequent in NDN (93.5%, 29/31).
Third, the model [ 17] reproduces the experiments on auxin pattern maintenance in the root tip after root cut from the shoot, however the present model does not.
For the analyses in schizophrenic patients (8 vs. 8), the power was 0.98 for the articulatory rehearsal task, 0.89 for the non-articulatory phonological maintenance task, 0.99 for visuospatial "rehearsal" and 0.94 for visuospatial pattern maintenance.
In the 'visuospatial pattern maintenance task', subjects had to remember the spatial pattern built by the four sample positions while performing a visuospatial suppression task by following the moving star with their eyes.
As for diagnosis, there was a significant effect for both visuospatial WM tasks (visuospatial rehearsal: F (3, 92) = 5.3, p = 0.002; visuospatial pattern maintenance: F (3, 92) = 6.08, p = 0.001).
There was only a statistical trend for the visuospatial pattern maintenance task, with schizoaffective patients without familial loading performing worse than healthy controls (F = 8.1; df = 1, 6; P = 0.059).
