Abstract:
Med udgangspunkt i det moderne højhus' fødsel i det 19. århundredes USA samt fænomenets internationale historie, belyser artiklen højhusets historie og udbredelse i Danmark. Fra velfærdsstatens funktionalistiske boligkolosser i midten af det tyvende århundrede, over 1970'erne og 80'ernes modreaktion og 'småt er godt'-mentalitet til de seneste årtiers individuelle og amerikansk inspirerede<br />prestige-projekter med vartegnsambitioner, sættes den danske udvikling ind i en europæisk kontekst og prioriteret bevidsthedshistorisk forklaringsramme. Siden midten af det tyvende århundrede har erhvervshøjhuse i bycenteret hørt til de mest karakteristiske træk ved storbyers udvikling verden over, men i Danmark er den slags højhuse endnu relativt sjældne. Også i danske byer peger udviklingen i de seneste år dog i retning af flere høje, markante byggerier i eller nær bymidten.<br /><br />Abstract:<br />In recent decades, the distinctive urban setup, with a nucleus dominated by clusters of office towers, has spread to most parts of the world. Economic growth and structural conditions are obviously of fundamental importance for this development, but as the present article shows, the limited construction of such centrally located high-rise buildings in Danish (and European) cities may also be put into a framework of history of consciousness. The first modern skyscrapers were erected in American cities in the late 19th Century, but it was not until the middle of the 20th Century that a related, but dissimilar development gained momentum in Europe and Denmark. In Copenhagen, as well as in other European cities, office towers fitted badly into the the maze of streets in the city centres, and they also conflicted with the laws that restricted building heights. Because of the post-war shortage of housing and the rapid economic growth of the 1950s and -60s, the first high-rise buildings in Denmark were built in the mid-1950s in the form of suburban residential towers. Since then, these pre-fabricated concrete towers have affected the Danish townscape for better and perhaps especially for worse; and this may be one of the reasons why high-rise buildings fell into disrepute in Denmark. At any rate, the first generation of high-rise buildings in this country was mostly suburban, and a child of European modernism and functionalism. Due to a fear of Americanization and the ruining of Copenhagen"s "unique" low skyline, only a few "American" highrise buildings were allowed to be built in Copenhagen"s inner city in this period. From the early 1970s until 1990, practically no high-rise buildings were constructed in Denmark. The building activity was affected by low economic growth; and in addition, the bad experience from the 1950s and -60s influenced the new catchword of the building industry: dense, low. Since the last decade of the 20th Century, however, high-rise buildings have once again become fashionable in Denmark. Not all types of high-rise buildings, though, but characteristic and unique "American" commercial high-rise buildings in or near city centres. This development may be seen not only in Copenhagen, but also in several of the larger provincial towns. Public opposition to these towers is still significant, but as a consequence of increased globalization and the race for attracting multinational companies and the favour of the professions, municipal councils in Denmark are bending over backwards to signal progressiveness and an attractive business environment - for instance by stimulating the<br />construction of office towers.<br />

Abstract:
This thesis treats the historical development of the marine industry worldwide and its relation to risk analysis during the 60 year period of 1950 to 2010. The relation between the two is found through analysis of what risks connect the two and drive the development of technology and legislation during different time periods. There is little to no previous research on this particular subject particularly using a risk perspective of complex systems. To do this it became necessary to write a summary of the development of the maritime industry in technological and legislative terms, in modern time, while at the same time revealing clear insights in how this development works. The summary is based on a wide variety of different sources, and therefore gives a reasonably accurate description of the development given the period and scope looked at. Generalizing the development is found to be that risks force legislative changes, and that technological development is sometimes responsible for causing the risks. That said, many technological developments also help reduce overall risk. The major conclusion drawn is that when a risk is acknowledged there is a conscious effort made to minimize or eliminate it, which in turn is a development, a system change of sorts that might have generated new risks. Overall the evolution of the maritime industry has led to a system that is resilient towards risks, yet that still responds to risks actively and often rather efficiently once they become apparent.

Full text
Abstract:
On peut identifier une longue pratique autobiographique en Afrique, si l’on remonte aux Confessions de St Augustin, et l’écriture de soi s'est de surcroît développée dans les langues africaines, aux époques précoloniales puis coloniales. C’est toutefois à l’initiative d’anthropologues et d’éducateurs africanistes que les premières autobiographies africaines (souvent rédigées par des instituteurs ou des élèves) ont été collectées, tandis que parallèlement émergeait une écriture autobiographique dans le roman africain francophone. Avec le combat anticolonial, apparaît une forme nouvelle : l’écriture de mémoires par de grands acteurs politiques africains, qui accentue la dimension réflexive des écritures africaines de soi. A l’ère postcoloniale, l’autobiographie tend à devenir de plus en plus intellectuelle, oscillant entre l’essai autobiographique et l’auto-analyse. A partir d’un corpus majoritairement francophone et anglophone, composé d’auteurs aussi divers que Wole Soyinka, Kwame Anthony Appiah, Joseph Emmanuel Nana Appiah, William E. B. Du Bois, Léopold-Sédar Senghor, Lamine Gueye, Amadou Hampâté Bâ, Valentin Yves Mudimbe, Achille Mbembe, Célestin Monga, Barack Obama, Paulin Hountondji ou Rasna Warah, notre thèse retrace les mutations des écritures africaines de soi, de l’ère coloniale à l’époque postcoloniale, en insistant au passage sur les formes de dialogue qui s’établissent entre ceux-ci et les penseurs africanistes français, pour lesquels l’autobiographie fut bien plus qu’un récit de vie. Dans ces perspectives d’histoire et de sociologie littéraire, nous empruntons à Jérôme Meizoz sa notion de posture pour étudier les positionnements esthétiques, politiques et littéraires des écrivains et penseurs africains dans les champs littéraires africains et occidentaux. Nous mettons également en relief diverses modalités de l’auto-réflexivité en confrontant les écritures africaines de soi avec certaines autobiographies intellectuelles de penseurs et écrivains afro-américains. Cette mise en regard permet une réflexion sur les "postures postcoloniales" de nos auteurs, et débouche sur une nouvelle problématique : la visée postraciale ou le dépassement des projets et des interprétations racialistes de l’histoire et de l’identité qui ont caractérisé nombreuses idéologies africaines comme le panafricanisme et la négritude. En nous appuyant pour finir sur l’idée de « postblackness » désormais en vogue aux États-Unis, nous tâchons de montrer que le postracial reste malgré tout davantage un horizon qu’une réalité des écritures africaines de soi, du milieu du XXe siècle au seuil du XXIe siècle<br>We can identify a long autobiographical practice in Africa, if we go back to the Confessions of St. Augustine, and selfwriting has moreover developed in African languages, in pre-colonial and colonial times. At the initiative of anthropologists and Africanists, the first African autobiographies (often written by teachers or students) were collected, while autobiographical writing simultaneously emerged in the French African novel. With the anti-colonial struggle, memoirs were written by leading African politicians, which emphasized the reflexive dimension of African selfwritings. In the postcolonial era, autobiography tends to become more intellectual, oscillating between autobiographical and self-analytic projects. Through a predominantly french-and english speaking corpus, consisting of authors as diverse as Wole Soyinka, Kwame Anthony Appiah, Joseph Emmanuel Nana Appiah, William E. B. Du Bois, Léopold-Sédar Senghor, Lamine Gueye, Amadou Hampâté Bâ, Valentin Yves Mudimbe, Achille Mbembe, Célestin Monga, Barack Obama, Paulin Hountondji or Rasna Warah, our dissertation traces back the mutations of African selfwriting, from the colonial times to the post-colonial era, emphasizing the dialogues established between African authors and French Africanist thinkers, for whom autobiography was much more than a life story. In these literary historical and sociological perspectives, we borrow from Jerome Meizoz his notion of “posture” to study the esthetical, political and literary positions, of various writers and thinkers in African and Western literary fields. We also highlight how self-reflexivity occurs by confronting African self writings to some intellectual autobiographies produced by African-American thinkers and writers. This comparison allows a reflection on the "postcolonial posture" of our authors, and leads to a new problem : the post-racial project that runs through the racialist interpretations of history and identity that characterized many African ideologies such as Pan-Africanism and negritude. Ultimately relying on the idea of "postblackness" now in vogue in the United States, we strive to show that the postracial remains nevertheless a horizon more than a reality of African writings itself, the mid-twentieth century to the twenty-first century

Abstract:
Lärarkåren är en yrkeskår vars status är omdiskuterad. Yrket är inte professionellt i samma utsträckning som t.ex. läkaryrket, utan är istället att betrakta som semiprofessionell. Yrket har under 1900-talet genomgått en professionaliseringsprocess och har under historien rört sig närmare eller längre ifrån att uppfylla kriterierna för att räknas som en profession. Denna studie utforskar denna professionaliseringsprocess genom att undersöka diskussioner av elevproblem i lärarförbundets medlemstidning under perioden 1950-2010 och det är diskussionernas diskursiva grund som analyseras och detta med fokus på vilka som uttalar sig, hur påståenden legitimeras och med vilken blick problemen betraktas. Uppsatsen diskuterar sedan vad denna diskursiva grund säger om lärarkårens professionaliseringsprocess och yrkets vetenskapliga teori och autonomi. Studiens viktigaste resultat är att perioden 1950-1990 är en tid då påståenden om elevproblem i allt högre grad görs av lärare, legitimeras genom den pedagogiska vetenskapen och betraktas med en relationell blick samt en tid då lärarkårens vetenskapliga teori och autonomi stärks, vilket visar att det sker en professionalisering av läraryrket under denna tid.  Studiens resultat visar även att perioden 1990-2010 är en period där förändringstendenserna inte är lika tydlig.

Abstract:
Las partituras gráficas y gráficos musicales constituyen un ámbito de la creación artística contemporánea situado entre categorías artísticas. Estas formas de escritura de la música proponen la visualización del sonido, dirigiéndose a los sentidos visual y auditivo y favoreciendo los aspectos sinestésicos del arte. La notación gráfica es un fenómeno relacionado con la creatividad que nace del diálogo y la interacción entre elementos visuales y sonoros. El presente trabajo de investigación pretende abordar el fenómeno de la notación gráfica desde las múltiples vertientes que intervienen en su desarrollo, incidiendo en los factores no sólo musicales sino también artísticos, culturales, filosóficos y políticos que dan lugar a su creación, así como en las principales aportaciones de este tipo de notación. Por otra parte, la mayoría de compositores consagrados a la notación gráfica han dedicado obras y series de partituras al círculo. Ya sea empleado como forma abstracta o como grafismo sobre el cual se disponen los signos convencionales de notación musical, el círculo presenta una especial relevancia en la notación gráfica, utilizándose para la representación visual de acontecimientos sonoros. A partir de esta constatación, la presente investigación se plantea como objetivo descubrir qué relación existe entre el grafismo circular y su traducción sonora en las principales partituras gráficas y gráficos musicales circulares realizados entre los años 1950 y 2010. Los resultados que se obtienen confirman que, pese a responder a conceptos musicales y artísticos muy diversos, existen elementos comunes en la interpretación musical de las partituras circulares realizadas durante el mencionado período de tiempo, conceptos que se repiten proyectados en lo gráfico y lo sonoro. En gran parte de las obras analizadas, la notación circular cumple un propósito estructural, enfatizando visualmente la forma cíclica de las piezas musicales, sus ostinatos y elementos repetitivos, así como la noción de tiempo indefinido. Asimismo, el círculo se convierte en símbolo de concepciones temporales no-lineales presentes en gran parte de la música de la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Dichas concepciones temporales se expresan metafóricamente a través de términos como “tiempo suspendido”, “tiempo interior”, “tiempo propio”, “tiempo de naturaleza cualitativa”, “tiempo atemporal”, “tiempo eterno”, “tiempo vertical”, etc. Las concepciones temporales no-lineales, expresadas simbólicamente por el círculo, favorecen la convergencia de tiempo y espacio. A través del grafismo circular se muestra el aspecto espacial y no sólo temporal de la música. Se comprueba también que, estando la notación gráfica estrechamente relacionada con el concepto de “obra abierta”, el círculo - forma paradójicamente limitada e infinita - ayuda a resolver la dialéctica que se crea en las obras abiertas entre aspectos determinados e indeterminados. El círculo actúa como mediador entre los elementos que el compositor define y aquellos que son dejados a elección del intérprete en cada una de las realizaciones. La notación circular posibilita - cuando el compositor no hace explícito - la elección por parte del intérprete del punto de comienzo de la lectura, así como del sentido de la misma, horario o antihorario. En muchos casos, éste puede decidir también la duración de la obra, que dependerá del número de giros realizados. En el caso de partituras escritas sobre discos o estructuras giratorias, la rotación de la partitura permite cambiar la posición y la lectura de los diferentes parámetros que aparecen en ella. Se concluye, además, que la notación circular presenta una mayor relación con las cualidades circulares del sonido y de la música, y puede ser entendida como una manifestación más de la “circularidad” de la música realizada durante el período temporal citado, puesta de manifiesto en aspectos tales como la estructura circular de un gran número de composiciones musicales, en la puesta en escena de las mismas, en la construcción de auditorios esféricos, etc. Finalmente, se constata que, en la notación circular, la estructura concéntrica es una de las empleadas con mayor frecuencia por los compositores para organizar el material gráfico y sonoro. En las partituras que emplean este patrón gráfico se establecen diferentes asociaciones entre los círculos concéntricos y su realización sonora. Forma parte de la bibliografía consultada más de un centenar de partituras gráficas y gráficos musicales circulares realizados entre los años 1950 y 2010. Una parte importante de la información sobre las obras estudiadas ha sido obtenida a través de la comunicación personal con los propios autores de las obras. Entre los múltiples documentos consultados para la realización de esta investigación destaca también la obra “Notations”, compendio de partituras musicales del siglo XX llevado a cabo por John Cage y Alison Knowles en 1969, así como “Notations 21”, antología de partituras gráficas llevada a cabo en el año 2009 por Theresa Sauer.<br>Graphic scores and musical graphics constitute a field of contemporary art located between artistic categories. These forms of musical notation make sound visible. They are directed to the visual and auditory senses and favor synaesthetic art aspects. Graphic notation is a phenomenon related to the creativity that comes from dialogue and interaction between visual and sound elements. This research approaches graphic notation from the multiple aspects which are involved in its development, focusing on factors not only musical but also artistic, cultural, philosophical and political that are important in its creation. It is focused as well on the main contributions of this type of notation. Furthermore, composers devoted to graphic notation have dedicated works and series of scores to the circle. Used as an abstract shape or with conventional signs arranged in a circular way, the circle presents special relevance in graphic notation and it is employed for the visual representation of sound events. From this realization, this research wants to find out which is the relationship that exists between the circular graphical shape and its sound translation in the main graphic scores and musical graphics made between the years 1950 and 2010. The results obtained confirm that, despite responding to diverse musical and artistic concepts, there are common elements in the musical interpretation of circular scores created during the mentioned period of time. On the one hand, in most of the works that have been analysed, circular notation serves a structural purpose, visually emphasising the cyclic form of musical pieces, its ostinatos and repetitive elements, as well as the notion of indefinite time. Circular notation often shows the musical structure of the work. On the other hand, the circle becomes symbol of non-linear temporal concepts present in much of the music of the second half of the 20th century. These temporary conceptions are metaphorically expressed through terms such as "suspended time", "inner time", "own time", "time of qualitative nature", "timeless time", "time everlasting", "vertical time", etc. Non-linear temporal conceptions, symbolically expressed by the circle, favor the convergence of time and space. Circular notation shows the spatial aspect of music. It also proves that, if graphic notation is closely related to the concept of "open work", the circle – paradoxically limited and infinite - helps to resolve the dialectic that is created in open works between determinate and indeterminate aspects of the work. The circle acts as a mediator between the elements that are defined by the composer and those who are left at the choice of the performer in each one of the realizations. Circular notation makes also possible - when the composer does not make it explicit - the choice of the starting point of reading, as well as the sense of it, clockwise or counterclockwise. In many cases, it allows also to decide the duration of the work, which will depend on the number of turns that are made. For scores written on disks or rotating structures, the rotation of the score lets the performer change the position and the reading of the different parameters that appear in it. Moreover, circular notation presents a greater relationship with the circular qualities of sound and music, and can be seen as a manifestation of the presence of “circularity” in music during the time period cited. These presence is shown in aspects such as the circular structure of a large number of musical compositions , in the construction of spherical auditoriums, etc. Finally, in circular notation, concentric structure is one of most frecuently used by composers to organize sound and graphic material. In the scores that employ this structure, it is possible to find different associations between the concentric circles and its sound realization. More than a hundred circular graphic scores and musical graphics made between 1950 and 2010 are part of the litterature consulted. An important part of the information about these pieces has been obtained through personal communication with the authors of these works. Among the multiple documents consulted for this research we can also mention the volume “Notations”, a compendium of sheet music of the 20th century conducted by John Cage and Alison Knowles in 1969, as well as “Notations 21”, an anthology of graphic scores carried out in 2009 by Theresa Sauer.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis aims to understand the frequent use of metaphors of madness, in particular paranoia and schizophrenia, in American culture and thought from the Cold War to the ‘war on terror’ across a variety of discourses, from historiography to critical theory, from literature to film. Unlike existing analyses that focus on paranoia to the exclusion of schizophrenia, this study for the first time considers the historical evolution of a popular psychopathology as part of a wider struggle over the understanding of political agency and subjectivity. Part one establishes dominant conceptions of paranoia and schizophrenia in reading two representative thinkers of post-war America. The first chapter examines the historiography of Richard Hofstadter and his diagnosis of a paranoid style as a deliberate pathologisation of dissent and the failure of liberal hegemony. Next, I consider Fredric Jameson’s theory of postmodernism as the culmination of a widespread tropology of madness in cultural criticism and contend that Jameson’s thought revolves around the perceived absence of a revolutionary class, and the paradoxical attempt to think radical politics after the loss of such collective agency. Part two analyses the development of popular metaphors of madness from the counterculture to the present day. First, I focus on science-fiction author Philip K. Dick as arguably the most important writer of psychosis of the 1960s and 1970s. A lifelong dialogue with psychiatry, Dick’s work allows unparalleled insight into cultural uses of psychopathology. Chapter four intervenes in debates around conspiracy theories by re-reading America’s culture of paranoia, from 1970s conspiracy films to Don DeLillo’s Libra and Underworld. My critique of conspiracy studies’ continued pathologisation of dissent leads to a rethinking of paranoia based on Lacan’s late writings on psychosis: not as paranoia outside reason, but the paranoia of reason. The final chapter turns to the recent work of Jameson and DeLillo to assess the afterlife of popular psychopathology after its integration into US culture and assesses the use of metaphors of madness in thinking the attacks of 9/11 and its consequences. While Jameson’s concern with schizophrenic postmodernism has been dialectically transformed into a consideration of collective subjectivity, I read DeLillo’s novels Cosmopolis, Falling Man, and Point Omega as testament to a final exhaustion of political alterity in his work and a consequent renewal of psychopathological characterisations of contemporary America.

Full text
Abstract:
The immense changes to have taken place in UK food retailing during the second half of the 20th century are detailed, explained and analysed, with constant reference to theories of retail change. The result is not just a history of UK food retail change post-1950, but a comprehensive evaluation and extension of retail change theory, with new driving forces and ideas elaborated, and a forecast of likely key developments to 2010. The thesis is based largely on the testimonies of key industry actors of the period, including past and present executives of leading food retail organisations, and followed an un-structured interview approach, allowing stories to be told without unnecessary constraint. The development of the industry is detailed and explained, drawing heavily on these testimonies, and this change is explained with reference to major factors with a direct hearing on the industry, such as government policy and socio-economic change. Because of the emphasis on witness accounts, the theories of retail change are analysed with a heavy focus on the people driving change, a refreshing change in a field where the historical nature of the subject tends to drive research towards secondary sources of data. The thesis contributes a better understanding of the forces driving the theories of retail change, and proposes an extension to the domain of application. The relevant elements of the theories of retail change are implemented to forecast likely developments in the UK food retail industry to 2010, which is complemented by an 'expert' Delphi forecast and a projection of current socio-economic trends.

La teoría de la interdependencia integra perspectivas multi-dimensionales, multi-causales y complejas a los métodos de estudio de las organizaciones de los partidos políticos. Propicia su estudio como unidades aisladas dentro de su ambiente. Pese a su crítica contra los métodos de investigación del sistema racional y del sistema natural, este proyecto de investigación es complementario de aquellos enfoques que asumen perspectivas de comprensión macro de las organizaciones de los partidos. Los métodos interdependientes permiten relacionar múltiples conceptos con fines de integración explicativa. Por ejemplo relacionan el “Análisis de las Tres Caras de los Partidos Políticos” (partido en el gobierno, partido en la oficina y partido entre actores sociales) y los Tipos Ideales de las organizaciones internas de los Partidos, TIPs (“Partido Burocrático de Masas”, “Partido Profesional Electoral” y “Partido Cartel”) para comprender la estabilidad y cambios de las Coaliciones Políticas Dominantes, CPD; la Institucionalización de las Estructuras Organizacionales Internas, IEO y los Tipos Ideales de Legitimación de las Zonas de Incertidumbre ZI como el conjunto de factores interdependientes que determinan los cambios de las estructuras de Partidos Políticos. Como resultado de la aplicación de estos conceptos al análisis histórico comparado de las dos organizaciones internas del partido liberal y conservador, Bogotá, 1950-2010, hoy se puede comprender mejor los sistemas de autoridad y las formas organizacionales en entornos locales como producto de un orden negociado en el que participan múltiples actores interesados.

Abstract:
Since the end of the Second World War, numerous British veterans of that conflict have made the decision to publish a memoir of their military experiences on the front-line. This thesis investigates the contribution of these sources to the historical record of warfare between 1939 and 1945. Contending that these documents reveal something unique and important about the ways in which former combatants participated in and interpreted battle, the thesis focuses on two core research questions. First, it explores what these narratives reveal about the experience and representation of combat, examining the interplay of the authors with the natural environments in which they operated, the machines with which they fought, the enemy they tried to kill, and the comrades with whom they served. Second, it inquires into the intention and function of these texts, assessing why and how they were created. In order to address these questions, this thesis draws on a wide pool of veteran memoirs, written by former front-line personnel from the RAF, Royal Navy and Army, and published since 1950. It also draws, where appropriate, on unpublished sources such as those to be found in the Archive of British Publishing and Printing at the University of Reading. Through these lines of inquiry, the thesis identifies the ways in which veterans lived, remembered, understood, and communicated their experiences of combat during the Second World War, and argues for the merit of the military memoir as a historical source.

Abstract:
The late twentieth century was one of the great periods of Mediterranean migration. Migrations out of North Africa and into and out of Israel have been discussed in the previous chapter. The history of migration out of Sicily and southern Italy began as far back as the late nineteenth century, and it was largely directed towards North and South America. In the 1950s and 60s it was redirected towards the towns of northern Italy. Southern Italian agriculture, already suffering from neglect and lack of investment, declined still further as villages were abandoned. Elsewhere, colonial connections were important; for example, British rule over Cyprus brought substantial Greek and Turkish communities to north London. Along with these migrants, their cuisines arrived: pizza became familiar in London in the 1970s, while Greek restaurants in Britain had a Cypriot flavour. Not surprisingly, the food of the south of Italy took a strong lead among Italian émigrés: the sublime creation of Genoese cooks, trenette al pesto, was little known outside Italy, or indeed Liguria, before the 1970s. But the first stirrings of north European fascination with Mediterranean food could be felt in 1950, when Elizabeth David’s Book of Mediterranean Food appeared. It drew on her often hair-raising travels around the Mediterranean, keeping just ahead of the enemy during the Second World War. Initially, the book evoked aspirations rather than achievements: Great Britain was still subject to post-war food rationing, and even olive oil was hard to find. With increasing prosperity in northern Europe, the market for unfamiliar, Mediterranean produce expanded and finally, in 1965, Mrs David found the confidence to open her own food shop. By 1970 it was not too difficult to find aubergines and avocados in the groceries of Britain, Germany or Holland; and by 2000 the idea that a Mediterranean diet rich in fish, olive oil and vegetables is far healthier than traditional north European diets often based on pork and lard took hold. Interest in regional Mediterranean cuisines expanded all over Europe and North America – not just Italian food but Roman food, not just Roman food but the food of the Roman Jews, and so on.

Abstract:
This study was performed to investigate the effect of the refractory organic matter (ROM) in the marine sediment on the lengthening of the large scale generation of the hypoxic water in Ise Bay. A field survey for collecting core samples of the sediment was conducted in 2015. The analysis with the data of sedimentation rate revealed many important features. A considerable amount of ROM deposited during the period of excess eutrophication in the past was found in the sediment. The total quantity of the degradable ROM (d-ROM) per unit seafloor area was from 71 to 231 mgC/cm2. The mean characteristic time of degradation of d-ROM was about 47 years. A pelagic ecosystem - marine sediment coupled model was employed and the long-term simulation from 1950 was carried out. The simulation results showed the total quantity of d-ROM reaches its maximum at the year around 2000 and there is about a 20 year delay from the peak time of the eutrophication. This feature caused the prolongation of the higher oxygen consumption as well as the higher nutrient release from the sediment in recent years. The increase of the hypoxic water area and the volume in 2010 due to the excess ROM was about 11% and 18%, respectively. These findings show the substantial effect of ROM in the marine sediment on the persistency of water pollution.

Abstract:
Abstract There is very little doubt that there has been a noticeable advance in heavy-duty industrial gas turbine technology for utility scale electric power generation in the last decade. In keeping with the first six decades of the technology (roughly 1950 through 2010), the main drivers in increasing thermal efficiency and megawatt ratings have been increasing turbine inlet temperature and airflow. In accordance with the basic thermodynamic principles governing the underlying Brayton cycle, compressor pressure ratio kept pace with them. It is hard to quibble about the 40+ percent in rated thermal efficiency in simple cycle. If projected turbine inlet temperatures and cycle pressure ratios can be sustained in the field, current state-of-the-art in turbine hot gas path metallurgy, coatings and advanced film cooling techniques indeed support published ratings. Unfortunately, published combined cycle ratings are an altogether different matter. It is one thing to set the product line rating performance at an aggressive level with well-understood albeit optimistic assumptions such as very low water-cooled steam turbine condenser pressure with open-loop cooling. It is yet another thing to blatantly disregard fundamental laws of thermodynamics with outlandish performance ratings, which are unlikely to materialize even in the next decade or two cost-effectively (unless an unforeseen transformative step-change in technology materializes). In this paper, using fundamental thermodynamic arguments and detailed heat and mass balance simulations, it will be shown that some, if not all, OEM ratings are losing touch with reality.

Abstract:
La presente comunicación propone un acercamiento al filme Touki Bouki (1973) del director senegalés Djibril Diop Mambety, utilizando las siguientes figuras sensibles de la filosofía de Jacques Rancière como prisma epistémico: la fiction documentaire (Rancière, 2001); le régimen esthétique de l’art (Ibíd., 2011); la police, la politique et le politique (Ibíd., 2003). Así, esta investigación se propone explorar las temporalidades de una ficción documental (Rancière, 2001), que resalta una ambivalencia contrariada entre; por un lado, imágenes representacionales de un contexto post-Independencia o postcolonial (Césaire, 1950) en la ciudad de Dakar (Senegal); y por otro, la proclamación de una traslación de los espacios de la diáspora (Lao-Montes, 2007) hacia una «diaspora estética» (Peffer, 2013); a través de una puesta en escena que reensambla los recursos tácitos propios de las Nouvelle Vague con un dispositivo político y social de visibilidad (Rancière, 2001) que se sabe capaz de suspender la lógica historiográfica de la subalternidad colonial (Spivak, 1985). Asimismo, pensar el filme como una propuesta de desplazamiento hacia los márgenes «pasivos» del activismo político (Rancière, 2010). Un desplazamiento hacia prácticas no-discursivas, sino estéticas. Ya no son las imágenes documentales que pretenden dotar de «mayor realidad» (Sontag, 2003) a una situación determinada, propias de la militancia del Tercer Cine (Getino &amp;amp; Solanas, 1969); sino, por el contrario, la correspondencia entre formas de identificación estéticas capaces de desactivar los dispositivos policiales (Rancière, 2003) y coloniales de las retóricas amo-esclavo (Han, 2005) / opresor-oprimido (Freire, 1968). Aquí, una consecución visual que oscila entre la acción política determinante y verosímil; y la vida sin razón, propia del arte estético (Rancière, 2001), que identifica formas emancipatorias basadas en la libertad del “no saber” (Mambety, 1999).
