Corporate Governance in the #MeToo Era: A Compact, In‐Class Case*

Norman T. Sheehan, Lynne Charbonneau

Accounting Perspectives > 21 > 3 > 507 - 509

With the rise of the #MeToo movement, workplace harassment has become an important board issue. Despite this, little has been written on the role that boards, and governance in general, should play in reducing the potential for employee harassment in the workplace. This compact, in‐class teaching case, which is based on an actual employee lawsuit in Canada, fills this gap by reviewing the role of...

Setting and vetting strategy: Bridging the chasm between CEOs and boards

Norman T. Sheehan, Richard C. Powers

Business Horizons > 2018 > 61 > 5 > 679-688

One of directors’ key fiduciary duties is to set the firm’s direction and then vet the strategy proposed by the CEO. Despite this, McKinsey reports that the majority of directors feel they do not understand their firm’s strategy, and even if they do understand it, they do not feel they have the desired impact on their firm’s strategy. This article argues that this shortfall stems from a failure to...

Advancing quantitative techniques to improve understanding of the skeletal structure-function relationship

Frances T. Sheehan, Elizabeth L. Brainerd, Karen L. Troy, Sandra J. Shefelbine, more

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation > 2018 > 15 > 1 > 1-7

Although all functional movement arises from the interplay between the neurological, skeletal, and muscular systems, it is the skeletal system that forms the basic framework for functional movement. Central to understanding human neuromuscular development, along with the genesis of musculoskeletal pathologies, is quantifying how the human skeletal system adapts and mal-adapts to its mechanical environment...

Normalized patellofemoral joint reaction force is greater in individuals with patellofemoral pain

Lucas T. Thomeer, Frances T. Sheehan, Jennifer N. Jackson

Journal of Biomechanics > 2017 > 60 > C > 238-242

Patellofemoral pain is a disabling, highly prevalent pathology. Altered patellofemoral contact forces are theorized to contribute to this pain. Musculoskeletal modeling has been employed to better understand the etiology of patellofemoral pain. Currently, there are no data on the effective quadriceps moment arm for individuals with patellofemoral pain, forcing researchers to apply normative values...

Structural Behaviour of Beam to Concrete-filled Elliptical Steel Tubular Column Connections

J. Yang, T. Sheehan, X. Dai, D. Lam

Structures > 2017 > 9 > C > 41-52

Elliptical hollow sections (EHSs) have been utilized in construction recently because of their visual appearance as well as the potential structural efficiency owing to the presence of the two principle axes. However, little information currently exists for the design of beam to elliptical column connections, which is an essential part of a building structure. Thus, to ensure the safe and economic...

Experimental investigation on continuous reinforced SCC deep beams and Comparisons with Code provisions and models

M.A.T. Khatab, A.F. Ashour, T. Sheehan, D. Lam

Engineering Structures > 2017 > 131 > C > 264-274

The test results on eight two-span deep beams made of self-compacting concrete (SCC) are presented and discussed in this paper. The main parameters investigated were the shear span-to-depth ratio, and the amount and configuration of steel reinforcement. All beams failed due to a major diagonal crack formed between the applied mid-span load and the intermediate support separating the beam into two...

Norman T. Sheehan

Accounting Perspectives > 15 > 3 > 201 - 212

A well‐functioning management control system is essential to ensure the organization's strategy is executed as planned. While accounting students are provided many opportunities to master the design of management control systems, students are provided fewer opportunities to practice applying management control systems. This interactive role play allows students to experience the challenges managers...

Climate change effects on southern California deserts

D. Bachelet, K. Ferschweiler, T. Sheehan, J. Strittholt

Journal of Arid Environments > 2016 > 127 > C > 17-29

Climate change has already affected southern California where regional increases in temperature and vegetation shifts have been observed. While all the CMIP5 temperature projections agree on a substantial level of warming throughout the year, there is fair bit of divergence in the magnitude and seasonality of projected changes in rainfall. While desert plants and animals are generally adapted to extreme...

The effective quadriceps and patellar tendon moment arms relative to the tibiofemoral finite helical axis

Hyun Soo Im, Oren Goltzer, Frances T. Sheehan

Journal of Biomechanics > 2015 > 48 > 14 > 3737-3742

The moment arm is a crucial parameter for understanding musculoskeletal dynamics as it defines how linear muscle force is transformed into a moment. Yet, for the quadriceps tendon this parameter cannot be directly calculated, as the patella creates a dynamic fulcrum. Thus, the effective quadriceps moment arm (EQma) was developed to define the quadriceps force to tibial moment relationship. In vivo...
