Abstract:
Rebound effects can be caused for a blast door under explosion loadings of conventional weapons. Such effects reaching a certain extent can lead to severe reversed stresses and even destroy the hinge and lock system before the door leaf. In this study, an analytical model for the elastic rebound of a blast door under explosion loadings was proposed and analyzed. Based on the calculations, the effects of aspect ratio and load duration on the rebound behavior were analyzed. Furthermore, for extension of the analysis from the elastic to plastic range, comparison of the solutions with the analytical ones was made. The results showed that the positive and negative dynamic shear force peaks of the blast door deceased gradually with the aspect ratio, whereas the rebound strength was inversely proportional to the load duration. For blast doors entering into the plastic stage, the rebound behavior was similar to the elastic stage, implying that the design of a blast door can be based on its characteristics in elastic stage.

Abstract:
For a blast-resistant structural system with concrete slab as the primary structural member, edge rotation based on flexural failure is generally used as an index to evaluate its structural performance. However, it has been predicted that short-span single-leaf blast doors are vulnerable to shear failure. In this study, limitations on the general application of the edge rotation as a performance evaluation index were reviewed using a finite element (FE) method. The results demonstrated that shear failure was dominant in the impulsive and dynamic response regions, while shear failure or flexural-shear combined failure was dominant in the quasi-static region. In the case of short-span single-leaf blast door, the concrete slab is vulnerable to shear failure, and therefore, the door should be designed considering pressure-impulse curves based on shear failure. For further study, several explosion tests and FE analyses will be required to verify the structural responses and failure level changes according to various specifications of the blast door, and to obtain a general evaluation index for its structural performance.

Abstract:
The higher the acoustical quality of the door leaf the greater the influence of the bottom gap on the resultant sound insulation of the door. If the design of the door bottom joint and the seal is not correct, any construction of the door leaf in order to increase sound insulation can be ineffective. The greatest influence on sound transmission of the door has the gap with the greatest width a door bottom joint. Modern ways of the sealing of the doorsill gap are able to provide required sound insulation of the door.

Abstract:
The main doors of medieval buildings or building complexes such as cathedrals or palaces are substantial structures, often weighing as much as one tonne per leaf. A survey of medieval English doors shows several distinct structural types whose different structural actions will be considered. All must develop some form of in plane action through the interaction of their components to transmit their weight back to their supports. However their complexity often allows several different modes of action, each of which will be differently affected by moisture movement within the timber, so that more than one mode of action will often need to be considered. The recent need to repair the early sixteenth century main doors of Trinity College, Cambridge involved the detailed analysis of one of these types whose structure comprised a dense grid of relatively slender muntins and ledges set within a much more substantial frame, carrying decorated boarding and mouldings on the outside face. The intention was that by understanding this structure we would be able to restore the original structural action of the door. In this case earlier interventions and permissions, and the extent of deterioration at the lower hinges, made this impossible. However, the exercise suggests an approach that might be valuable in the restoration of other doors of this type.

Abstract:
One of the most important problems occurring while designing public transport vehicles consists in providing an effective control of the door opening systems. The methods of carrying out the investigations presented in the paper include structural and kinematic analysis of the door opening mechanisms and simulation of their operation in applied software. The paper analyses the design and operational peculiarities of the turning-and-shunting mechanism of door opening of electric public transport. The corresponding design of the mechanism is proposed. It is suggested to be driven by pneumatic drive. The simplified diagram of the mechanism is constructed. Structural and kinematic analysis of the mechanism is performed, and the analytical dependencies for describing the motion of its links during the door opening/closing are derived. The main kinematic parameters of the studied mechanism are investigated on the basis of the derived analytical dependencies in MathCAD software, as well as by means of simulating the motion of the solid-state model of the mechanism designed in SolidWorks software. The conclusions about the agreement of the results of theoretical investigations performed on the basis of numerical solving the obtained motion equations and of the virtual experiment (motion simulation in SolidWorks software) are drawn. The analysis of energy efficiency of the investigated turning-and-shunting door opening mechanism of electric public transport is carried out. Prescribing the resistance force acting on the door leaf and calculating the corresponding door motion speed during its closing, the dependency of the nominal power supply of the mechanism drive as a function of corresponding generalized coordinates was deduced. Analyzing the obtained results, the authors have established that the necessary nominal power of the turning-and-shunting mechanism drive is almost twice larger than the necessary nominal power of the widely used leaning-and-shunting mechanism. Further investigations on the subject of the paper can be performed in the direction of developing different control systems providing safe and reliable operation of the considered door opening mechanism driven be electric and pneumatic actuators.

This master thesis deals with creation computional model of specific door leaf which was researched and now is provided by company named IFE-CR, a.s. Finite element method analysis is performed within the standards for load conditions during the operation. Stress-strain response should be the main factor to comparing results with experiment on real door. Based on acquired knowledge from the original model we can evaluate credibility of mechanical behavior of newly designed model which has lower profil tapered from the original 42 mm to 25,4 mm. From the results of FEM analysis of the modified profile is evaluated applicability to the real operational state. At the end is quantified material and financial savings achieved by reducing the height of profile.

Abstract:
This bachelor thesis was written in cooperation with IAC Group AB in Låssby/Gothenburg. The report explains the background to this project and why it was started. It also describes some theory which is needed to understand the project that has been made and which methodologies that have been used during this study. In this project the current state of the door panel department layout was analyzed and studied. Very early on it became clear that one of the biggest wastes for this department is related to operators walking. To make an improvement the focus was on reducing the unnecessary walking distances that the operators have to make and also not exceed the given budget. Six different layout alternatives were analyzed in regards to these factors and compared with each other as well as with the current state. The comparisons resulted in an own layout suggestion which is a combination of some of the six layouts analyzed but also own inputs. This layout is recommended for the company to implement since it reduces the unnecessary walking distances the most of all alternatives and the investment for it is within the given budget.

Christofides, R. M. "Shakespeare and equivocation : language and the doom in Hamlet, Othello, Macbeth, and King Lear." Thesis, Cardiff University, 2008. http://orca.cf.ac.uk/55788/.

Full text
Abstract:
Equivocation is a condition of language that runs riot in Hamlet, Othello, Macbeth, and King Lear. Whether as ambiguity or dissimulation, equivocation propels the plots of these plays to their tragic finales. The Doom as depicted in pre-Reformation churches is invoked in the plays as a force that could end both equivocation and tragedy. However, Shakespeare withholds this divine intervention, allowing the tragedy to play out. Chapter One outlines the thesis, explains the methodological approach, and locates the thesis in relation to the major fields of Shakespeare studies. Chapter Two focuses on the equivocal position of father-and-not-father occupied by Claudius and the Ghost in Hamlet, and the memento mori imagery in the play that reminds the audience of the inevitability of death and Judgement. Chapter Three on Othello examines Iago's equivocal mode of address, a blend of equivocations and lies that aims to move Othello from a valued insider to a detested outsider in Venice. Chapter Four argues that linguistic and temporal equivocations are the condition of Macbeth, where the trace of the future invades the present and the trace of vice invades virtue. In both Othello and Macbeth, the protagonists, in their darkest moments, summon images of apocalyptic damnation. Chapter Five proposes that the language of King Lear deconstructs the opposition between Christianity and paganism, and interprets Cordelia as both Lear's poison and remedy. Furthermore, it analyses the moment when Lear enters the stage carrying Cordelia's dead body as an equivocal invocation of the Doom. The methodological approach to this thesis draws on Derrida's conception of language as differential and without access to any divine guarantees that could anchor meaning. The tragedies, then, can be understood in relation to language: they are denied the divine force that could fix, resolve, and stabilize them.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the development of one-hour fire rating of wood-based fire doors using the incombustible galvanization steel plate, magnesium oxide board and four wood-based materials (plywood, medium density fiberboard, particleboard and flaxboard) as raw materials to composite, and to discuss the effect of door construction and the variety of door frame and saw lumbers on door’s fire endurance performance. According to the properties for various type materials, 80 doors with 40 different structural combination and 2 variation of saw lumbers on the fire endurance performance for one-hour rating fire doors based on the CNS 11227 test standard which is heating with the small test furnace (size: 45cm×45cm) for Lab to estimate the best combination of wood-based materials fire doors. The test results shows that the door frame saw lumbers with solid wood and laminated veneer lumber(LVL) series can achieve each fire endurance standard after burning and impact test. Total with 29 fire doors can pass one-hour fire rating (class A). Among them, there are 14 and 15 doors of door frame saw lumbers with solid wood and LVL series, respectively. The best construction of specimens was A-4 series in order of [ magnesium oxide board/galvanization steel plate/(inter-layered materials)—/magnesium oxide board/wood-based materials/magnesium oxide board/(core materials)—/galvanization steel plate/magnesium oxide board] from outer layer to inter layer, while the worst were No. A-1.1 in A series, in order of [magnesium oxide board/(inter-layered materials)－/wood-based materials/galvanization steel plate/wood-based materials/(core materials)－magnesium oxide board] and B series [galvanization steel plate(inter-layered materials)—magnesium oxide board/wood-based materials/magnesium oxide board/(core materials)—/galvanization steel plate]. Third, the correlation between the thermal conductivity and retention rate of core materials, charring rate and the door leaf back temperature. It shows that each of them all correlates with the thermal conductivity very closely. The R2 values are all over 0.8. Next, through Duncan's new multiple range analysis on 1.thermal conductivity, 2.mass lose percentage, 3.saw lumber thickness lose percentage, 4.saw lumber charring rate, 5. retention rate of core materials, 6.core material charring rate, 7.door leaf back temperature with the four wood based materials, The tendencies of 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 are B series > A series ≒ C series(p<0.05), only the tendency of 5 shows A series ≒ C series > B series(p<0.05). As comparing A, B, C series construction with Duncan's new multiple range analysis, the trends of 1, 2, 7 are B > A ≒ C; 3, 4, 6 are B > C > A(p<0.05). Only trend of uncarbonized retention rate is A ≒ C > B(p<0.05). To the saw lumbers which are made by solid wood and LVL, the saw lumber thickness loss of 7 specimens made by solid wood are higher than made by LVL, however, there are 19 specimens made by LVL higher than solid wood specimens. Thus, it is conclude that high-density wood gets better fire endurance performance.

In this thesis, we synthesized lead-free piezo-ceramics BNT-6BT by a conventional oxide mixing fabrication process. Then we used BNT-6BT as a matrix doping acceptor and donor to replace B-site, the position of Titanium, to modify the microstructure and electrical properties. The elements we selected are Aluminum which is an acceptor dopant and Tantalum and Niobium which are donor dopants. In XRD investigation, all of the specimens show perovskite structure peaks mixing with R phase and T phase which reveal that they are still in the MPB region. The peaks are almost no shift in every specimen in which means there are no remarkable phase change. Although the phase is almost no change, B-site dopants have changed electrical properties remarkably. Aluminum doped BNB6T would decrease the resistivity and increase the Pr and Ec. The S-E curve showed a typical butterfly shape. Doped with Tantalum and Niobium would show similar effects on BNB6T. There is no remarkable change in resistivity in donor doping. The P-E curve would pinch seriously when doping with Tantalum and Niobium. The S-E curve of Tantalum and Niobium doping would show similar V shape. When we doped 1mol% Niobium, there is the maximum strain of 0.3% which is 0.08% higher than BNB6T. In TEM investigation, we find that the vacancies which are generated from acceptor or donor replacement would influence domain structure largely. Oxygen vacancies generated from Aluminum doped could let the nano domain transform into long range domain. On the other hand, Tantalum and Niobium dopants would show the same domain feature as BNB6T which is nano domain everywhere. In addition, we discover the diffraction pattern of nano domain would show special streaking spots at zone 310 revealing there are P4bm and R3c symmetries mixing in the matrix which generated the nano domain. This kind of mixing symmetries may be the reason of the giant strain in BNT-Based lead-free materials.

Abstract:
«In such confusion of affairs, likely to lead to new disturbances, began the year one thousand four hundred and ninety-four […], a most unhappy year for Italy and in truth the beginning of the years of misfortune, because it opened the door to innumerable, horrible calamities.». This is the opening of the sixth chapter in the first book of the famous History of Italy by Francesco Guicciardini which, for the events of that unhappy year and those that immediately followed, draws extensively on the incomparably less well-known and popular De bello italico by Bernardo Rucellai, as demonstrated by his autograph summary of the Latin work and certain coincidences. In many ways a forerunner of the later great historical works, traversed by a line of thought and by reflections of undeniable modernity, the story of the descent into Italy of the 'monster' Charles VIII, seen through the eyes of a Florentine oligarch nostalgic for the regime of Lorenzo and hostile towards Piero de' Medici and his insane politics, deserves to be rediscovered. Based on the only existing manuscript, Rucellai's work is presented here for the first time in a modern edition, representing the very first Italian translation.

Abstract:
AbstractExtreme weather events, especially heat waves, have become more frequent with global warming. High temperature significantly affects world food security by decreasing crop yield. Rice is intensively planted in tropical and subtropical areas in Asia, where high temperature has become a major factor affecting rice production. Rice is sensitive to high temperature, especially at booting and flowering stages. Rice varieties tolerant of high temperature are rare, and only a few heat-tolerant rice varieties have been identified. High temperature at booting and flowering stages causes sterile pollen, decreased pollen shedding, and poor pollen germination, which finally lead to a yield decrease. Heat-tolerant QTLs have been identified in different studies, but new breeding lines with considerable heat tolerance have not been bred using identified heat-tolerance donors and QTLs. Research on heat-tolerant donor identification, QTL mapping, gene cloning, and large-scale phenotyping technology is important for developing heat-tolerant rice varieties.

Abstract:
This chapter addresses inconsistencies and disagreements within the Bible, the sorts of things that sometimes lead people to dismiss the Good Book out of hand. In general, there are at least four kinds of disagreement. The first is a function of the Bible’s disparate literary sources. The second is that the Bible reflects an evolving theology or worldview. The third shows how a particular issue considered in different contexts might generate conflicting claims. Finally, in some cases, the fourth reveals late biblical texts wrestling with received texts that were simply wrong but by then immutable. Yet another kind of disagreement may not be one at all, but is more a function of modern readers' interpretations than contradictions within the texts themselves. In the process of discussing both broad differences and specific inconsistences, this chapter also tempers readers' haste to toss out the Bible altogether. By bringing background information to bear, one can, if not make sense of these oddities, then accept them for what they are.

The technique has been progressively refined over time to provide concealed scars and to reduce donor site morbidity. The use of endoscopic assistance, robotic flap harvest, muscle-sparing flap design, and perforator flaps based on the thoracodorsal vascular access (the thoracodorsal artery perforator flap or TAP-flap), continue to increase the utility of this donor site for breast reconstruction.

Abstract:
Lung transplantation is well established as a viable therapy for end-stage lung disease. Appropriate patient and donor selection, meticulous attention to technique, and continued improvement in the postoperative care of these patients will lead to optimal outcomes. Donor shortage and chronic allograft rejection continue to be the biggest hurdles preventing lung transplantation from reaching its full potential. Indications, recipient selection, donor procurement, surgical techniques, and postoperative outcomes are reviewed. The major identified causes of death in the first 30 days postoperatively are graft failure and non-cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections. After the first year, bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome and non-CMV infections were the predominant causes of death. Death caused by malignancies rises consistently until the 10-year mark, accounting for 12% of all deaths between 5 and 10 years after transplant.

Abstract:
Tolerance analysis for assembly of a three co-linear hinges door system is studied in this paper. An analysis model is developed, in which the typical alignment errors between the pins and cylinders are included. The successful assembly conditions are presented. Simulations are carried out based on the models and the Monte Carlo method that predict successful assembly. Analysis results show that the positioning error, the distance between the axis of the pin and surface of the leaf, the thickness of the leaf and the depth of the mortise are the top 3 sensitive input variables in the system.

Abstract:
Front Small Overlap (FSO), a new test mode introduced by IIHS is used for differentiating North American market vehicles on their safety ratings with the Top Safety Pick (TSP) status. Current paper describes a production ready version of a non-traditional (door insert) concept. Small overlap test mode demands occupant cage integrity which can be achieved from structural countermeasures in the Side Sill, A-pillar or Front body hinge pillar. These structural measures add mass and need lead time for development (not feasible for existing vehicles). Current study describes door insert design that can be incorporated into the doors for providing improved strength for small overlap loading conditions. Paper investigates composites / structural plastic design onto existing impact door beams (Within the available packaging space). The door insert, along with improved CAB deployment capability, would provide improvement on existing vehicle safety ratings.

Abstract:
In this paper, we introduce a case study of modeling, analysis, and continuous improvement of a door production line at an automotive body shop using production systems engineering methods. Analytical models have been developed, and recursive procedures have been derived to evaluate line production rate. An arrow-based bottleneck analysis method is introduced to identify the bottlenecks, whose improvement can lead to the largest improvement in system performance. Such methods provide a quantitative tool for plant engineers and managers to operate and improve door production line to achieve high productivity, and are also applicable to other large volume manufacturing systems.

Abstract:
Abstract The V26 containment vessel was procured by the Project Manager, Non-Stockpile Chemical Materiel (PMNSCM) for use on the Phase-2 Explosive Destruction Systems. The vessel was fabricated under Code Case 2564 of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, which provides rules for the design of impulsively loaded vessels. The explosive rating for the vessel, based on the Code Case, is nine (9) pounds TNT-equivalent for up to 637 detonations, limited only by fatigue crack growth calculations initiated from a minimum detectable crack depth. The vessel consists of a cylindrical cup, a flat cover or door, and clamps to secure the door. The vessel is sealed with a metal gasket. The body is a deep cylindrical cup machined from a 316 stainless steel forging. The door is also machined from a 316 stainless steel forging. The closure clamps are secured with four 17-4 PH steel threaded rods with 4140 alloy steel threadednuts on one end and hydraulic nuts on the other. A flange with four high-voltage electrical feedthroughs is bolted to the door and sealed with a small metal gasket. These feedthroughs conduct the firing signals for the high-voltage Exploding Bridge-wire detonators. Small blast plates on the inside of the door protect fluidic components and electrical feedthroughs. A large blast plate provides additional protection. Both vessel door and feedthrough flange employ O-ring seals outside the metal seals in order to provide a mechanism for helium leak checks of the volume just outside the metal seal surface before and after detonation. In previous papers (References 2 and 3), the authors describe results from testing of the vessel body and ends under qualification loads, determining the effective TNT equivalency of Composition C4 (EDS Containment Vessel TNT Equivalence Testing) and analyzing the effects of distributed explosive charges versus unitary charges (EDS Containment Vessel Explosive Test and Analysis). In addition to measurements made on the vessel body and ends as reported previously, bulk motion and deformation of the door and clamping system was made. Strain gauges were positioned at various locations on the inner and outer surface of the clamping system and on the vessel door surface. Digital Image Correlation was employed during both hydrostatic testing and dynamic testing under full-load explosive detonation to determine bulk and bending motion of the door relative to the vessel body and clamping system. Some limited hydrocode and finite element code analysis was performed on the clamping system for comparison. The purpose of this analysis was to determine the likelihood of a change in the static sealing efficacy of the metal clamping system and to evaluate the possibility of dynamic burping of vessel contents during detonation. Those results will be reported in this paper.

Abstract:
Due to the growing shortage of donor livers, more patients are waiting for liver transplantation. Efforts to expand the donor pool include the use of living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) and split liver transplantation. LDLT involves a healthy person undergoing a partial hepatectomy to donate a part of his liver to a patient with severe liver failure. Afterwards, the regenerative capacity of the organ allows the livers of both donor and recipient to regrow to normal liver masses. The procedure is not without risk as serious complications may occur (such as cholestasis, ascites, gastrointestinal bleeding and renal impairment). An inadequate liver mass compared to the body mass may result in the small-for-size syndrome (SFSS). In both donor and recipient, LDLT may lead to portal hypertension associated with the elevated intrahepatic resistance of a smaller liver, and an increased portal venous (PV) inflow per gram of liver tissue compared to the total liver before resection. Excessive hyperperfusion and shear stress may damage the sinusoidal endothelial cells and lead to graft dysfunction.

Abstract:
Ford Otosan’s Yeniköy plant, which assembles the Transit Courier and Tourneo Courier, has developed a innovative air leakage test method. Air leakage is not a directly measurable metric by customer, but it can be observed in some different ways such as wind noise, road noise, water ingress, dust intrusion, door closing efforts, and better cooling/heating performance. In order to detect leak point by conventional method is dramatically time consuming, needed to remove trim parts and issues under 11/s could not be detectable. Innovative air leakage test method has been designed by using air heater unit, air leak test device and thermal camera. By the assistance of thermal imaging method air leak rate has been improved.

Abstract:
The learning crisis in many developing countries has led to searches for innovative teaching models. Adoption of innovation, however, disrupts routine and breaks institutional inertia, requiring government employees to change their way of working. Introducing and embedding innovative methods for improving learning outcomes within state institutions is thus a major challenge. For NGO-led innovation to have largescale impact, we need to understand: (1) what factors facilitate its adoption by senior bureaucracy and political elites; and (2) how to incentivise district-level field staff and school principals and teachers, who have to change their ways of working, to implement the innovation? This paper presents an ethnographic study of Pratham, one of the most influential NGOs in the domain of education in India today, which has attracted growing attention for introducing an innovative teaching methodology— Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) – with evidence of improved learning outcomes among primary-school students and adoption by a number of states in India. The case study suggests that while a combination of factors, including evidence of success, ease of method, the presence of a committed bureaucrat, and political opportunity are key to state adoption of an innovation, exposure to ground realities, hand holding and confidence building, informal interactions, provision of new teaching resources, and using existing lines of communication are core to ensuring the co-operation of those responsible for actual implementation. The Pratham case, however, also confirms existing concerns that even when NGO-led innovations are successfully implemented at a large scale, their replication across the state and their sustainability remain a challenge. Embedding good practice takes time; the political commitment leading to adoption of an innovation is often, however, tied to an immediate political opportunity being exploited by the political elites. Thus, when political opportunity rather than a genuine political will creates space for adoption of an innovation, state support for that innovation fades away before the new ways of working can replace the old habits. In contexts where states lack political will to improve learning outcomes, NGOs can only hope to make systematic change in state systems if, as in the case of Pratham, they operate as semi-social movements with large cadres of volunteers. The network of volunteers enables them to slow down and pick up again in response to changing political contexts, instead of quitting when state actors withdraw. Involving the community itself does not automatically lead to greater political accountability. Time-bound donor-funded NGO projects aiming to introduce innovation, however large in scale, simply cannot succeed in bringing about systematic change, because embedding change in state institutions lacking political will requires years of sustained engagement.
