Abstract:
Contemporary public personnel management differs from the past because it is characterized by two emergent alternatives to traditional civil service systems for delivering public services: alternative mechanisms and flexible employment relationships. These alternatives are not new, but they are more commonplace than before. And when new public programs are designed, these alternatives have largely supplanted traditional public program delivery by “permanent” civil service employees hired through appropriated funds. Under these circumstances, it is reasonable to ask how competent are public per

Abstract The traditional approach to corrosion modeling is relatively straightforward. Corrosion is expressed as a rate of penetration per year and failure is defined when a critical loss of section is predicted to have occurred. Such an approach is well suited to applications involving ships and pipelines where a small local leak can lead to more widespread problems. However, if this approach is applied to civil structures then it generally proves to be overly conservative. Civil structures are usually not affected by global failure due to a local event.

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;Today’s bridge construction projects face new challenges. Public, regulators and authorities demand new structures which are cost effective during their planning, execution, lifetime and dismantling. This translates into a higher relevance to the life cycle costs, and the so-called external costs associated with the execution and maintenance of the structure. A recent independent study has shown that choosing steel sheet pile abutments over the traditional concrete ones leads to a reduction of up to 15% the economic impact during the service life of the structure.

Abstract:
The Gülen movement, or hizmet, is often misunderstood, and this is in large measure because it is unlike anything else in the Muslim world, though the Muhammadiyah and Nahdlatul Ulama mass-based organisations of Indonesia do bear some resemblance. However, there is no good reason to limit comparisons to the Muslim world. As a social movement motivated by religious values and the ideals of selfless service, engaged in philan- thropic endeavour and active in the civil sphere, the Gülen hizmet deserves comparison with other such movements around the globe.

Abstract:
Abstract Environmental Control Systems (ECS) on civil transport aircraft constitute large portions of the secondary power demand. In this paper, an alternative compression system to the conventional two-port bleed design is presented, which can substantially lower the level of secondary power required for meeting the ECS demand. The concept presented is a novel engine-mounted cabin compression system (EMC2S). The potential benefits of the novel EMC2S over conventional systems are quantified and a multi-disciplinary approach, involving combined engine and aircraft performance analysis, is used

Abstract:
Abstract As energy transition to alternative fuels for civil aviation is likely to be gradual, hydrogen’s first entry to service may be implemented on existing gas turbine engines. In this paper a novel liquid hydrogen conditioning system for retrofitting on kerosene designed geared turbofans is assessed in terms of performance and engine rematching. The aim of the analysis is to identify emerging requirements for the design of the fuel and thermal management system within the constraints of a certified engine design. The conditioning system proposed, an LH2 preheater, enables the control of t

Abstract:
One of the major obstacles that are limiting the development of deployable integrated sensing and actuation solutions is the scarcity of power. Converted energy from ambient loading in civil and mechanical structures is typically used as an alternative solution. Although, piezoelectric vibration harvesters have been widely used, these elements exhibit a narrow natural frequency response range, thus considerably limiting the levels of harvestable power. Most of the previously used methods focus only on modifying the transducer’s properties and configurations. These techniques do little to modif

Abstract:
Introducing financial incentives to increase productivity in the public sector tends to be politically and bureaucratically cumbersome, particularly in developing countries. Behavioral interventions could be a low-cost alternative, both politically and financially, although evidence of their effectiveness remains scarce. We evaluate the effect of redesigning the notice requiring civil servants in Buenos Aires to comply with citizens requests under Argentina's freedom of information act. The new notice, sent to the treatment group, attempts to exploit salience, deterrence, clarity, and social n

Abstract:
Dominant narratives promoting economic growth at the expense of state institutions and basic social services have long underpinned a neoliberal model of spiralling debt and austerity in the MENA region. This exacerbates political capture and inequality and takes shape in an environment of media concentration and shrinking civic space. It is important for change movements to understand dominant narratives in order to challenge and shift them. With the right tools, civil society organizations, activists, influencers and alternative media can start changing the myths and beliefs which frame the s

This is the fourth time the Office of Evaluation and Oversight (OVE) has provided an independent review of the Bank's program with Costa Rica. The first Country Program Evaluation (CPE) in 2003 covered the period 1990-2001, during which an open trade model was consolidated, leading to substantial foreign direct investment. The second CPE covered the period 2002-2006, in which the country was heavily exposed to external shocks. The third and most recent evaluation, coveri

There is increasing impetus for stronger cooperation between the US, EU and UK on digital technology governance. Drivers of this trend include the economic incentives arising from opportunities for digital trade; the ambition for digital technology governance to be underpinned by shared values, including support for a democratic, open and global internet; and the need to respond to geopolitical competition, especially from China. Two specific areas of governance in which there is concrete potential to collaborate, and in which policymakers have indicated significant ambitions to do so, are dig
