Abstract:
The immediate post-colonial period offered opportunities as well as formidable challenges for former colonies of European powers. While colonial mentalities still pervaded in many European capitals and paternalism remained pervasive throughout the political diplomacy of the period, other perspectives were emerging. Through innovative policy engagements that occurred in the late 1950s and into the 1960s, a new sense of transnational purpose could be seen which presented former colonies with partnership options that were seemingly and practically outside the context of the historic geo-economic imposition. Whereas some European powers continued to exert overly dismissive attitudes to African engagement and society, other approaches experimented with developmental policies that were lauded by both sides at the time. This article will look at the practice and policies of associationism - the outworking of the Yaounde and Lome agreements - and will look at the formative international cooperation policies of the European Community (EC), as it evolved through the period when former European colonies were attaining independence. Finally, it will survey the reasons for the demise of associationism and speculate on the onset of what some have described as "neo-colonalism" (Langan, 2018: 1-32; Nkrumah, 1965).

Abstract:
Negotiations for Economic Partnership Agreements (EPAs) between European Union (EU) and the African Caribbean and Pacific countries (ACP) have been on the spotlight since 2002. The negotiations seek to replace the Lome Conventions which provided for a one way non-reciprocal trading regime between the EU and the ACP countries. The paper examines the position of Namibia in relation to EPAs and the lessons that Africa can derive from Namibia’s stance. Namibia which is negotiating under the Southern African Development Community (SADC) has declined to sign the Interim Partnership Agreements, besides initialing them in 2007, arguing that EPAs are not consistent with the objective of advancing African economies into competitive outfits in the global economy. Some of the sticking issues that need to be addressed concern EU’s demand for trade liberalization and a near elimination of import duty on all EU products to ACP zone. The paper argues that the major lessons for Africa are that EPA negotiations are much a political activity in as much as they involve the advancement of collective national interest by the EU. The paper therefore implores African countries to safeguard both political and economic interest in the process in the same manner as their EU counterparts are doing. Again, the paper exhorts Africa to negotiate from a position of strength and refuse to give in to unfair trade terms given the evident competition that is looming between the West and the East to partner Africa in development matters.

Abstract:
Economic and financial relations between the European Union and « new » South Africa were characterized by a rapid process 0} normalization following the general elections of27 April 1994. Much more problematic has been the process of negotiating a long term relationship which should result in the implementation of a Eu-South Africa free trade area over a ten year transition period, and a qualified membership of South Africa in the Lome Convention. The analysis 0} current negotiations reveals how the parties' mutual concern for the World Trade Organisation principles is constantly tempered by their equally strong commitment to Systems of regional preferences. At a time when the future of the Lome Convention has become a matter of official discussion by the EU and the ACP states, the revival of regional integration programmes in Southern Africa confers to the negotiations between the EU and South Africa a special value. Indeed, they prefigure as a test on the capacity to integrate the realities of new trade regionalism in euro-African relations.

Abstract:
Several window functions are currently applied to improve the performance of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) harmonic detection method. These window functions exhibit poor accuracy in measuring the harmonic contents of a signal with high-order and weak-amplitude components when the power frequency fluctuates within a small range. In this paper, a minimum side-lobe optimization window function that is aimed at overcoming the abovementioned issue is proposed. Moreover, an improved DFT harmonic detection algorithm based on the six-term minimum side-lobe optimization window and four-spectrum-line interpolation method is proposed. In this context, the minimum side-lobe optimization window is obtained by optimizing the conventional cosine window function according to the optimization rules, and the characteristics of the new proposed window are provided to analyze its performance. Then, the proposed optimization window function is employed to improve the DFT harmonic detection algorithm based on the six-term minimum side-lobe optimization window and four-spectrum-line interpolation method. The proposed technique is used to detect harmonics of an electricity gird in which the six-term minimum side-lobe optimization window is utilized to eliminate the influence of spectrum leakage caused by nonsynchronous sampling of signal processing. The four-spectrum-line interpolation method is employed to eliminate or mitigate the fence effect caused by the inherent measurement error of the DFT method. Simulation experiments in two complex conditions and an experiment test are carried out to validate the improved performance of the proposed window. Results reveal that the six-term minimum side-lode optimization window has the smallest peak side lobe when compared with existing windows, which can effectively reduce the interaction influence of spectrum leakage, improve the measurement accuracy of the DFT harmonic detection method, and meet the standard requirement of harmonic measurement in complex situations.

Abstract:
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver malignancy. Approximately 8% of patients with HCC are not suitable candidates for curative options. Caudate lobe HCC presents technical challenges for interventional radiologists. Caudate lobe HCC has higher local recurrence and poorer survival rate than other segments. Transarterial treatments of caudate HCC are difficult due to extreme variation of arterial supply. We present a case of a caudate lobe HCC with supply from the proper hepatic artery, which underwent successful conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (cTACE) by utilizing a Fogarty catheter to direct the embolic material. The patient presented 5 days following the procedure with duodenitis and pancreatitis, which were managed conservatively. Follow-up imaging at 1 month showed significant improvement of the ischemic duodenitis/pancreatitis with successful cTACE.

Abstract:
Presentees comme un exemple de politique d'aide au developpement, les conventions acp -cee de lome ont vu le jour a lome, capitale du togo, en fevrier 1975, a l'issue de negociations entre la cee et une quarantaine de pays d'afrique, des caraibes et du pacifique : les acp. Des lors, le nombre de pays concernes par les dites conventions a ete en constante evolution. Conclues par periodes de cinq ans, leur raison d'etre est de promouvoir et d'accelerer le developpement economique, industriel, culturel et social des etats acp, et d'approfondir et de diversifier leurs relations dans un esprit de solidarite et d'interet mutuel. Chaque etat acp doit disposer du droit de determiner de facon souveraine les principes, les strategies et les modeles de developpement de leurs economies et de leurs societes. Cette etude montre si l'oeuvre engagee mutuellement entre anciens pays colonisateurs et pays colonises, a travers ces accords de lome, a apporte des effets developpants. Nos investigations ont alors ete menees a partir d'analyses fondees sur le fonctionnement des principaux instruments elabores pour la mise en application des dites conventions, le systeme de stabilisation des recettes d'exportation, stabex, et le libre acces des produits acp sur le marche communautaire, entre autres.

Devant les insucces des echanges agricoles acp-cee, on s'interroge sur la responsabilite de chacun des deux partenaires dans cette situation : la comunaute europeenne offre un tarif douanier preferentiel qui reste symbolique, consequence de la preservation exageree des interets de ses propres agriculteurs. De plus, la communaute reduit la portee de son offre en etendant les memes avantages aux pays tiers concurrents des acp.

Abstract:
La cooperation acp-ue a plus de vingt ans d'existence. Les etats d'afrique entretiennent des relations economiques privilegiees avec les etats membres de l'ue depuis l'epoque coloniale. Malgre la mise en place des preferences commerciales et des aides speciales dans le cadre des accords de yaounde et des conventions de lome, la situation socio-economique de cette region d'afrique ne s'est pas amelioree. Les partenaires de lome reconnaissent que la noblesse qui fonde les aides accordees aux acp est en decalage avec l'usage des avantages conventionnels. La dependance des etats acp vis-a-vis de l'union europeenne devient de plus en plus notoire du fait de l'augmentation quantitative et qualitative des aides europeennes. Les etats d'afrique centrale n'arrivent plus a concevoir leurs politiques et structures economiques sans se referer aux aides en provenance des institutions de bruxelles. Sur le plan commercial en particulier, les etats d'afrique centrale sont menaces de perdre les preferences commerciales de lome avec l'avenement du gatt/omc. Sur le plan d'aide au developpement en general, les recentes mutations socio-politiques internationales incitent a modifier profondement les relations acp-ue. Ces etats risquent de se retrouver davantage en marge du circuit economique et commercial international. Quel type de rapports economiques ces etats peuvent-ils entreprendre avec leurs partenaires europeens dans ce contexte de reorganisation mondiale des echanges? le but de cette these est d'etablir le constat et la portee du systeme de lome par rapport au developpement de l'afrique centrale
The acp-eu cooperation has been in existence for more than twenty years. The african states have held privileged economic relations with the member states of the ue since the days of the empire. Inspite of commercial advantages and special aid in the form of the yaounde agreement and the lome convention, the socio-economic climate has not improved in this region of africa. The partners of lome acknowledge that the good-win with which aid was accorded to the acp is out of ligne with conventional advantages. The dependence of the acp states with regard to the european union is becoming more and more important regarding the quantity and quality of european aid. The central african states are not longer able to put their political and economic policies into practice without turning to brussel institutions for help. Especially on a commerciallevel, the central african states are threatered with losing the lome advantages in the light of the gatt/omcadvent. Concerning aid for development in general, recent international socio-political changes have begun to profoundly modify acp-ue relations. These states run the risk of finding themselves on fringe of international economy and trade. What kind of economic relation can these states undertake with their european partners in view of a worldwide trade reorganisation? the objective of this thesis is to establish the acknowledgement and the carrying out of the lome system with relation to central african development

Abstract:
Des liens ont ete noues entre les anciennes colonies d'afrique, des caraibes, du pacifique et l'occident. Ils ont ete concus sur la base des relations nord-sud. Ceux-ci ont subsiste apres l'independance sous diverses formes de partenariats parmi lesquels il y a notamment les conventions de lome. A travers quatre differentes versions de cette cooperation, la cge devenue ue a cherche les solutions pour instituer en leur sein des echanges commerciaux bases sur des preferences specifiques en faveur des etats acp et des avantages reciproques. L'instauration d'un nouveau regime commercial pour accelerer l'integration des pays acp dans l'economie mondiale, devrait retenir l'attention de tous. Mais malgre l'effort d'amelioration soutenu, fourni au cours des quatre versions passees, la convention n'a toujours pas produit les effets escomptes. Ni la premiere convention du 28 fevrier 1975, avec l'institution du mecanisme du stabex, ni la deuxieme du 21 octobre 1979 et l'innovation du sysmin, ni la troisieme du 8 decembre 1984, pas plus que la quatrieme du 15 decembre 1989 n'ont fourni une entiere satisfaction aux pma des etats acp dont les points de vue n'ont jamais ete pris en compte au cours des differentes negociations. Encore sous les sequelles de la colonisation et des mefaits de l'esclavage, cribles de dettes, ils se sentent comme reduits a l'impuissance. Il devient urgent de se convaincre qu'une cooperation veritable ne sera possible et acquise a la resolution des problemes qui aneantissent le monde acp que si les acp participent effectivement aux discussions, et si des gens ne decident pas a leur place ! pour aller dans cette voie, un plan marshall a l'occidental en faveur de ceux-ci est indispensable. Sous forme de reparation des prejudices subis, les anciens esclaves, les neocolonises trouveront l'equilibre financier necessaire dans la jungle economique moderne.

Abstract:
La convention de lome organise l'aide au developpement ainsi que la cooperation financiere et commerciale, entre l'ue et les etats acp en vue du developpement economique, culturel et social de ces derniers. Au-dela de ces aspects, la cooperation se preoccupe des risques environnementaux. Lome iv concretise cette preoccupation operee sous lome iii, en l'inserant systematiquement dans la cooperation. Il importe de reflechir sur la politique environnementale de lome iv : sa force juridique et son adaptation aux problemes des acp. Comment ces derniers peuvent-ils proteger l'environnement, tout en assumant leur developpement ? telle est la problematique qui sous-tend notre recherche. La convention tente donc de definir une methode et surtout de se donner les moyens d'assurer l'effectivite de l'application de cette politique, suivant une approche horizontale qui touche tous les domaines de la cooperation. Lome iv se dote alors d'instruments. Outre le fed et la bei, instruments financiers, la convention mentionne des instruments economiques comme moyen de protection de l'environnement, concoit une procedure d'evaluation de l'environnement des projets et fixe des criteres retenus pour lesetudes d'impact. Toutefois la portee juridique de ces instruments reste limitee. De plus la convention ne prevoit pas de normes juridiques d'application de sa politique et encore moins de mesures de controle. Nonobstant les limites de sa politique de l'environnement, lome iv contribue bien a la protection de l'environnement dans les etats acp et tente de definir un droit de l'environnement qui renforce le droit international de l'environnement. Son role dans la construction de l'ordre international environnemental n'est pas des moindres.

Abstract:
The negotiations for the Mid-Term Review of the Fourth Lome Convention marked the introduction of multiple conditionality - economic adjustment and good governance - into the Lome relationship. It placed additional demands on the two parties, giving rise to the essential concern of this thesis: do the two sides possess the requisite institutional capacity to meet those demands. The introduction was not a sudden development. The origins of multiple conditionality lay in the Pisani Memorandum and its proposal of policy dialogue. The path from the proposal to multiple conditionality was assisted by developments within the Lome relationship, including the unintended effects of ACP initiatives. This thesis is thus, in one sense, the history of the Memorandum's legacy of inverted conditionality through policy dialogue. It is also an analysis of the capacities generated by the Convention and their applicability to multiple conditionality. My analysis of bargaining, operational and instrumental capacities demonstrates a weak ACP capacity and an asymmetrically greater EU capacity. My initial conclusion is that the EU is much more capable of meeting the demands of multiple conditionality. However, it too faces limits on its capacity, especially in dealing with the sociopolitical aspects of governance. This recognition highlights an ignored factor: there is a second legacy of the Pisani Memorandum. In addition to the instrument of policy dialogue, the Memorandum identified institutional capacity as the means to help overcome the problems of development. The new tale of two legacies illustrates an EU emphasis on policy control at the expense of capacity building. It has failed to perceive the importance of the link, in the Pisani Memorandum, between the instrument and the means. It forces me to amend my initial conclusion: neither side is adequately prepared for the demands of multiple conditionality.

Abstract:
Dans un effort de restaurer un ensemble d'equilibre macro-economique et de remettre leurs economies sur la bonne voie les pays africains au sud du sahara ont mis en place, sous le controle et la surveillance des institutions de bretton woods les programmes d'ajustement structurel. Mais les methodes de ces programmes, parfois tres difficiles et douloureux sur les plans economiques, humains et sociaux ont suscite beaucoup des reactions dans l'opinion publique internationale. L'union europeenne, en reagissant a cette situation, s'est officiellement engagee a ce sujet avec la mise en place de la quatrieme convention de lome. Ceci apres des longues discussions et debats, l'appui a l'ajustement structurel est enfin considere comme l'une des politiques de developpement communautaire. Depuis lors, les interventions de l'union europeenne en ce domaine en afrique subsaharienne, comme dans d' autres regions acp soulevent aussi des interrogations sur l'adaptabilite de cette politique de l'ajustement structurel aux objectifs traditionnels de la convention de lome. Paradoxalement, malgre cette intervention europeenne dans les processus d'ajustement structurel des pays africains les economies deces pays restent toujours en deterioration constante par rapport aux autres regions du monde voila, pourquoi, nous avons choisi ce sujet, afin d'etudier un certain nombre de questions souleve par cette intervention ; les problematiques tant au niveau des rapports deja existant entre l'union europeenne et les pays africains, qu'au niveau des rapports entre l'union europeenne et les autres bailleurs de fonds internationaux; de plus, vu le fait que les objectifs de la convention de lome soient plus ou moins opposes aux logiques du processus d'ajustement structurel, on a examine les manieres dont la politique de lome s adapte-telle aux changements survenant au sien du regime d'aide internationale depuis les annees quatre-vingt et les consequences de cette greffe de l'ajustement structurel surla politique de lome. Cette these comporte dans un premiere temps, un chapitre preliminaire qui evalue les programmes de stabilisation et d'ajustement structurel en afrique subsaharienne tels qu'ils ont ete imposes par les institutions financieres internationales.

Abstract:
The extraordinary partnership that Beatrice and Sydney Webb embarked on when they married in 1892 spanned almost fifty years and left a lasting mark on British sociology, social welfare policy, and public administration. Groomed to make a Society marriage, Beatrice Potter (1858-1943) grew up believing that love and career were incompatible goals for a woman. Her disastrous relationship with the prominent, domineering politician Joseph Chamberlain reinforced that conviction. After it became clear that they would not marry, Beatrice made a name for herself as a social investigator, studying London’s poor in the late 1880s. But she could not shake off her obsessive love for Chamberlain. When Sidney Webb (1859-1947), a Fabian Socialist and a clerk in the Colonial Office, fell in love with Beatrice in 1890, he assured her that she could enjoy love and work. After a year of agonizing doubt, she agreed to marry him because she believed he would be the ideal partner for her work. But she was not passionately in love with him, as she had been with Chamberlain. She did not find Sydney physically attractive and was embarrassed by his lower class origins. It took Beatrice ten years to be fully happy with Sidney and a marriage that was focused almost entirely on work. Instead of having children, they wrote books together. They investigated social and economic issues, campaigned for sweeping changes in education and social policy, sat on government commissions, and were instrumental in founding the London School of Economics. When they married, Sidney vowed they would show the world what a marriage of true equals looked like. Beatrice agreed, but always recoiled from any suggestion that she was the dominant partner in the relationship. Their collaboration, in sharp contrast to the Youngs’ partnership, was fundamentally egalitarian: it acknowledged Beatrice’s contributions as much as Sidney’s and allowed each to play a variety of public roles. Beatrice headed a public campaign to rewrite Britain’s Poor Law legislation, and sat on several government commissions during World War I. Sidney was elected to Parliament and held two Cabinet posts. They are buried together in Westminster Abbey, the only non-royal couple to be so honored. But their seemingly idyllic union was marred for many years by Beatrice’s yearning for a more romantically compelling partner than Sydney and her sublimated passion for the dominating Chamberlain.

Abstract:
Elsie Clews Parsons (1874-1941) and her husband Herbert Parsons (1869-1925) present a very different pattern of conflict and accommodation in a marriage shaped by the wife’s determination to work. Both Elsie and Herbert came from wealthy and prominent New York families. When they married in 1900, after a six-year courtship, Elsie was an atheist, a feminist, and a social rebel who openly challenged female stereotypes and traditional roles. A Ph.D. in sociology, she was teaching at Barnard College and insisted on keeping her job. Herbert, a deeply religious and rather staid man, was a successful lawyer and politician. Although Elsie and Herbert seemed mismatched, I argue, in contrast to other of Elsie’s biographers, that their marriage was a love match. Their troubles began after Herbert was elected to Congress in 1904. Elsie gave up her teaching job, moved to Washington with their two children, and had four more children (two died shortly after birth). When the controversial views she espoused in her first book set off a public furor that offended and embarrassed Herbert, she stopped publishing under her own name. A few years later, she was wracked with jealousy when she thought he had fallen in love with another woman. Elsie and Herbert did not divorce, but they led increasingly separate lives after they returned to New York in 1911. Elsie organized her personal and domestic life around two new careers. After establishing a foothold in the feminist, bohemian intellectual world in Greenwich Village, she became a sought-after, influential social critic, writing for The Masses and The New Republic. Then she connected with Franz Boas’s professional circle and became a highly respected anthropologist, studying indigenous peoples in the American Southwest, the Caribbean, and South America. Elsie had two lengthy love affairs, with the architect Grant LaFarge, and the novelist Robert Herrick. She deliberately chose lovers who – unlike Herbert – were adventurous, interested in her work, and eager to travel with her. In the late teens and twenties, her relationship with Herbert gradually improved, in part because he took on more responsibility for their four surviving children. His unexpected death in 1925, while she was involved with Herrick, was a blow for Elsie. Deeply in love with Elsie, Herrick wrote about her in several novels and short stories in the 1920s. Initially supportive of her work, he became increasingly jealous of her success and deeply angry at being reduced to what he thought was a subordinate role in her life. His last book about her, published in 1932, several years after their affair ended, cruelly disparaged her and her work. Elsie was repeatedly disappointed by the men in her life, but she never stopped trying to implement her feminist vision of a more equitable and intimate relationship grounded in work rather than domestic life.

Abstract:
Alice Freeman Palmer (1855-1902), one of the most influential forces in women’s education in late 19th-century America, became President of Wellesley College at the age of 27 in 1882. A beloved, charismatic leader, she raised the school’s academic standards and solidified its finances. She fell deeply in love with George Herbert Palmer (1842-1933), a professor of Moral Philosophy at Harvard University, but was reluctant to marry him because he insisted she would have to give up the Wellesley presidency. She finally agreed, and they married in 1887. Her public life did not end, however. After she spent several years as a paid lecturer, speaking all over the country on women’s education, she and George were both offered jobs at the newly founded University of Chicago in 1892. George refused to leave Harvard, but Alice continued to negotiate for herself. Overcoming George’s objections, Alice became the first dean of women at the University of Chicago in 1892. She went to Chicago for weeks at a time, leaving him in charge of their Cambridge household and the renovations of their new home, financed in part with her earnings. Alice loved her work, and George applauded her achievements. But he repeatedly pressured her to return home earlier than planned to ease his loneliness or deal with troublesome servants. After three years, she resigned from the deanship and stayed in Cambridge, where she devoted herself to George and a demanding mix of volunteer activities. After Alice’s untimely death in 1902, George published a best-selling account of her life. His Life of Alice Freeman Palmer (1908) enshrined her in the public imagination as a domestic angel who happily gave up her career to marry the man she loved and fulfill her womanly destiny. As a result, she became a symbol of what a college-educated woman could accomplish before marriage, rather than an inspiration for women who wanted to combine marriage and career. The Palmers’ correspondence and the poems Alice wrote in secret tell a more complex, and more troubling, story of her work and marriage. They reveal how she struggled to maintain her independence and resist his efforts to protect and control her.

Abstract:
Among these five couples, Lucy Sprague Mitchell (1878-1967) and Wesley Clair Mitchell (1874-1948) most successfully combined professional accomplishments with a fulfilling marriage and a rich family life. When they married in 1912, they left their jobs at the University of California at Berkeley, and moved to New York City, which offered more professional opportunities for Lucy. A brilliant teacher and gifted administrator, Lucy became a pioneering force in the progressive education movement. She founded and led the organization that became the celebrated Bank Street College of Education. Wesley, one of the foremost economists of his generation, helped to develop the science of national statistics and launched and directed the National Bureau of Economic Research. They had four children, two of whom were adopted. Finding the right balance of marriage, work, and family involved much trial and error and frequent recalibration on both Lucy’s and Wesley’s part. Lucy did most of the childcare (with the help of many servants), but Wesley did more than most men of his era, and decided not to take one particular job because he felt it would take too great a toll on his family. Eager to show that wives and mothers can have careers when their husbands support their efforts and help to raise their children, Lucy published Two Lives, The Story of Wesley Clair Mitchell and Myself, in 1953, five years after Wesley’s death. Her message – as relevant today as it was in the 1950s – was that both wives and husbands need to adopt new behaviors to make such marriages work. Determined to have careers, both Lucy and Beatrice rejected prevalent stereotypes of masculinity and romantic love and made calculated, “rational” choices about whom to marry. Like Beatrice, Lucy came from a privileged background, married a man outside her social class, and used her inherited wealth to support their lifestyle. Like Beatrice, it took her years to appreciate that the man she initially found too weak and passive was a tower of quiet strength and a model husband for an ambitious woman. Like Sidney, Wesley supported his wife’s career with ongoing, ungrudging, unambiguous enthusiasm. As a result, neither Lucy nor Beatrice suffered the marital pressure – or the guilt – that made it so difficult for Alice and Grace to maintain their independent careers. Nor did they experience the intellectual and emotional isolation that undermined Elsie’s marriage. In the end, both Beatrice and Lucy felt richly rewarded for the unconventional choices they made.

Abstract:
Pursuing careers of their own made it difficult for these privileged wives to be the self-effacing, self-sacrificing domestic angels, helpmate wives, and companionate spouses that middle and upper-class white women of their day were expected to be. Instead, they upended gender stereotypes and romantic ideals, and found new ways to build emotional connection with their husbands. Chipping away at the foundations of male privilege and patriarchal power that defined most marriages of their time, they also challenged the emerging model of a professional career that reflected men’s lives and experiences rather than women’s. Because they wanted to work, these women looked for different qualities in a husband and a marriage than the typical middle-class woman of their era did. The search for a supportive husband led the women to think differently about masculinity and romantic love. Several “married down” by choosing men who were outside their social and economic class. This lowered the woman’s status in the eyes of her family and the world, but it strengthened her position in the marriage. Stricter standards of childrearing and professionalism increased the difficulties women of this era encountered in their efforts to combine marriage, motherhood, and career, but their husbands were potentially the greatest threat to their success. Some of the men were ostensibly encouraging but nevertheless put barriers in the women’s way and sometimes belittled their accomplishments. Others gave their wives long-term, ungrudging, unambiguous support. Supportive husbands took on many of the roles helpmate wives typically provided for husbands, shifting both the emotional dynamic and power center of traditional marriage. The husbands did more childcare and household management than most men of their era, but there was no expectation that there should be an equitable division of labor in the home. Like today’s “supermoms,” these wives worked two shifts – the household and the workplace – and carried out seemingly domestic tasks in order to show that they were “womanly” women. For the most part the wives embraced their multi-tasking lives with enthusiasm, and reveled in the opportunity to combine marriage and career rather than being relegated to one sphere or the other. Only late in their marriages did they acknowledge how resentful they sometimes felt about the extra burdens they carried compared with their husbands. Each of the five marriages is discussed in a separate chapter, in a progression that moves from the marriages that had the most trouble accommodating the wife’s career to those that were the most successful in doing so. Together, the five marriages offer variations on a common theme and illustrate an emblematic spectrum of challenges and responses. They illuminate the difficult choices dual couples still wrestle with today. Two of the couples – the Palmers and the Youngs – were reluctant rebels who struggled to uphold traditional values and marital stereotypes while accommodating the wife’s career. The deeply divided Parsons became a contentious couple whose work in unrelated fields pushed them apart instead of drawing them together. Elsie’s affair with the novelist Robert Herrick became equally contentious over the priority she gave her work. Two other couples – the Webbs and the Mitchells – were proud pioneers who expected men and women to adopt new roles in the workplace as well as in the home.

Abstract:
The Anoa field is a mature field producing mainly from Lower Gabus Sand formation as the oil producer since 1990. In 2000, the field was converted into gas producers, supplying gas to GSA1 scheme. The field comprises of two major fault-separated lobes, referred to as East Lobe and West Lobe, with the smaller Central Lobe in between. Two platforms were built to drain the hydrocarbons: Anoa platform and West Lobe platform. A-22ST3 is a horizontal oil producer from B2 sand formation of Central Lobe Area with a total rate of 59 BOPD with 1079 BWPD (95%WC). The B2 sand has been watered out and oil rates are expected to continue declining. Meanwhile, the A-22 ST3 has un-perforated behind pipe in the Lower Gabus A and B1 sand within potentially un-drained Central Lobe faults block. There was no well producing from this A/B1 Central Lobe. It’s expected that these sands are isolated and have not been drained by existing producers. However, the A sand is located above the production packer and requires work-over to access the opportunity while B1 sand can be perforated thru-tubing using e-line tractor or CTU. Challanges in data acquisition/ survillance at Anoa field particularly in A-22ST3 was mainly programmed in busy and packed of well services activity for cost optimization, then the most well intervention method need to be chosen. The surveillance plan was proposed to obtain reservoir pressure properties from A and B1 sand, well deliverability, and production allocation post workover operation. Considering cost optimization, rigless operation was the safest and the most efficient menthod with e-line operation combined with Well Tractor with Logging while tractoring mode. Not only save more than 8 hours operation than coiled tubing conveyance or a heavier intervention method, eline and well tractor invtervention enabled less people involvement in operation thus minimize safety risk and person on board accommodation management.

Abstract A method for the design of new rotor profiles for high-sealing lobe pump is presented in this paper. The objective of this paper is to improve the sealing of lobe pumps by designing chamber profile conforming rotors. The deviation function method is adopted and the resultant rotor profiles are trapping-free and have C1 continuity. A design procedure for rotor generation is also developed. A sealing index is defined to evaluate the sealing property of lobe pumps. Our results show that it is possible to design many new rotor profiles that have better sealing property than conventional involute rotors.

Abstract:
A deep marine reservoir is unique since it has complex lithology that affects the reservoir quality. The turbidite deposit, which is one of deep marine reservoir, is a fascinating research subject. It is commonly found in the subsurface as petroleum reservoirs. As a reservoir, it is essential to understand the character of the turbidite deposits qualitatively and quantitatively. The Miocene Semilir Formation is a magnificent model of an epiclastic deep marine sequence outcropped in the southern mountain area of Yogyakarta. This study aims to build the analogy model and characterize the epiclastic turbidite deposits as reservoir rock based on petrology and petrography data. Generally, the Early Miocene Semilir Formation in the study area is characterized by sandstone, tuff, shale, and breccia which are recognized as classical turbidite facies in the form of Ta, Tb, Tc, Td (Bouma, 1962) and coarse-grained turbidite facies in the form of R1, R2, R3, S1, S2 (Lowe, 1982). Based on porosity calculation, R1 and Ta facies have good porosity hence it may have high potential as hydrocarbon reservoirs. Directional fallout sedimentation mechanism and low tuff percentage are the main controlling factors in deep marine reservoir properties.

Abstract:
Annular-pupil optical systems are known to have high lateral resolution and a long depth of focus. However, owing to their large side lobes in the point spread function (PSF), the system has never been practically used. We propose a new method to suppress the side lobes of the PSF in annular-pupil transmission optical systems when the object absorption is weak. For 1-D suppression, a point source and a 1-D apodized annular-pupil are combined. For 2-D suppression, the source and another 1-D apodized annular-pupil are rotated synchronously, and PSFs are synthesized. The PSFs of a conventional circular-, a conventional annular-, and the proposed annular-pupil system are calculated and compared. Practical use of the proposed method is discussed.

Abstract:
Venus’ ideology has gone through various stages, including the primitive reproduction worship in the Paleolithic Age, the classical goddess of love and beauty in ancient Greece and Rome, the humanism of decline and revival in the Middle Ages and the early Renaissance, the secular humanity of vigorous development in the late Renaissance and the deconstructive cultural symbols after the twentieth century. The “Venus” is currently the convention of public aesthetics, the reconstruction of love and beauty, and the desire to impress people forever. It breaks the boundaries between classical art and public life, and stimulates the autonomy of cultural inheritance and innovation. This paper will specifically analyze the development of Venus’ ideology, and analyze the connotation and practical path of the autonomy of cultural inheritance and innovation through this example.

Abstract:
Recently, traffic accidents due to drowsy driving, operation mistake in the power plant by drowsiness and decrease arousal in employment during work have been attracted as problems. To avoid such an accident, arousal level could be quantitatively evaluated in real time. We suggested that the one of the parameters of Duffing oscillator parameters is related to the conventional arousal level using the EEG frequency component. However, in this examination, effects on the EEG from visual and active behavior were considered, but those from hearing also need to be investigated. In this paper, we performed the experiment in the musical environment using rock and classic music to investigate the model parameters for effect of the auditory stimulation, and acquired EEG data in Visual cortex and Frontal lobe. The acquired EEG data was used to identify the model parameters, which were identified solving the inverse problem by Least Square method. Results of investigating correlation between conventional arousal revel and model parameter shows a significant correlation in case of the auditory environmental situation. Moreover, Visual cortex is better than Frontal lobe as a measurement point in this evaluation method.

Full text
Abstract:
Various rider models have been proposed that provide control inputs for the simulation of motorcycle dynamics. However, those models are mostly used to simulate production motorcycles, so they assume that all motions are in the linear region such as those in a constant radius turn. As such, their performance is insufficient for simulating racing motorcycles that experience quick acceleration and braking. Therefore, this study proposes a new rider model for racing simulation that incorporates Nonlinear Model Predictive Control. In developing this model, it was built on the premise that it can cope with running conditions that lose contact with the front wheels or rear wheels so-called "endo" and "wheelie", which often occur during running with large acceleration or deceleration assuming a race. For the control inputs to the vehicle, we incorporated the lateral shift of the rider's center of gravity in addition to the normally used inputs such as the steering angle, throttle position, and braking force. We compared the performance of the new model with that of the conventional model under constant radius cornering and straight braking, as well as complex braking and acceleration in a single (hairpin) corner that represented a racing run. The results showed that the new rider model outperformed the conventional model, especially in the wider range of running speed usable for a simulation. In addition, we compared the simulation results for complex braking and acceleration in a single hairpin corner produced by the new model with data from an actual race and verified that the new model was able to accurately simulate the run of actual MotoGP riders.

Full text
Abstract:
The Caribbean and the European Union (EU) have been enjoined in a formal bi-regional relationship since the signing of the Lomé Convention in 1975, and are firm proponents of multilateralism, strong advocates of regional integration, democracy and rule of law, and reflect vibrant multi-ethnic and multilingual polities. The bi-regional relationship has evolved considerably over the intervening 45 years, and is reflected in formal agreements between the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) States and the EU, and in the sphere of economic cooperation, has been strengthened with the signing of the Cariforum-EU Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) in 2008. The EU also remains a significant source of development cooperation for the Caribbean, complemented by a sui generis project management regime that includes multi-annual programming. Beyond this, the bi-regional ties have expanded into new areas of joint multilateral endeavour such as the WTO Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA) and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. Despite the long and formal engagement, the Cariforum-EU partnership has not engendered either deep understanding of, or universal support in, each other’s conduct of multilateral negotiations. To the contrary, the partnership displays regular flashes of unease and arguably low-level tension. This paper seeks to assess the Caribbean-EU partnership in terms of its contribution of bi-regional trade and economic cooperation to Caribbean development, and possibilities for a renewed partnership considering new impulses shaping the Cariforum-EU relationship, including the post-Cotonou Agreement, Brexit, EU-LAC Political Dialogue and COVID-19 responses. A Cariforum-EU development agenda to fuel post-pandemic Caribbean recovery is mooted with the additional value of harnessing the promise of the revised partnership.

Harris, L. B., P. Adiban, and E. Gloaguen. The role of enigmatic deep crustal and upper mantle structures on Au and magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE-Cr mineralization in the Superior Province. Natural Resources Canada/CMSS/Information Management, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.4095/328984.

Full text
Abstract:
Aeromagnetic and ground gravity data for the Canadian Superior Province, filtered to extract long wavelength components and converted to pseudo-gravity, highlight deep, N-S trending regional-scale, rectilinear faults and margins to discrete, competent mafic or felsic granulite blocks (i.e. at high angles to most regional mapped structures and sub-province boundaries) with little to no surface expression that are spatially associated with lode ('orogenic') Au and Ni-Cu-PGE-Cr occurrences. Statistical and machine learning analysis of the Red Lake-Stormy Lake region in the W Superior Province confirms visual inspection for a greater correlation between Au deposits and these deep N-S structures than with mapped surface to upper crustal, generally E-W trending, faults and shear zones. Porphyry Au, Ni, Mo and U-Th showings are also located above these deep transverse faults. Several well defined concentric circular to elliptical structures identified in the Oxford Stull and Island Lake domains along the S boundary of the N Superior proto-craton, intersected by N- to NNW striking extensional fractures and/or faults that transect the W Superior Province, again with little to no direct surface or upper crustal expression, are spatially associated with magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE-Cr and related mineralization and Au occurrences. The McFaulds Lake greenstone belt, aka. 'Ring of Fire', constitutes only a small, crescent-shaped belt within one of these concentric features above which 2736-2733 Ma mafic-ultramafic intrusions bodies were intruded. The Big Trout Lake igneous complex that hosts Cr-Pt-Pd-Rh mineralization west of the Ring of Fire lies within a smaller concentrically ringed feature at depth and, near the Ontario-Manitoba border, the Lingman Lake Au deposit, numerous Au occurrences and minor Ni showings, are similarly located on concentric structures. Preliminary magnetotelluric (MT) interpretations suggest that these concentric structures appear to also have an expression in the subcontinental lithospheric mantle (SCLM) and that lithospheric mantle resistivity features trend N-S as well as E-W. With diameters between ca. 90 km to 185 km, elliptical structures are similar in size and internal geometry to coronae on Venus which geomorphological, radar, and gravity interpretations suggest formed above mantle upwellings. Emplacement of mafic-ultramafic bodies hosting Ni-Cr-PGE mineralization along these ringlike structures at their intersection with coeval deep transverse, ca. N-S faults (viz. phi structures), along with their location along the margin to the N Superior proto-craton, are consistent with secondary mantle upwellings portrayed in numerical models of a mantle plume beneath a craton with a deep lithospheric keel within a regional N-S compressional regime. Early, regional ca. N-S faults in the W Superior were reactivated as dilatational antithetic (secondary Riedel/R') sinistral shears during dextral transpression and as extensional fractures and/or normal faults during N-S shortening. The Kapuskasing structural zone or uplift likely represents Proterozoic reactivation of a similar deep transverse structure. Preservation of discrete faults in the deep crust beneath zones of distributed Neoarchean dextral transcurrent to transpressional shear zones in the present-day upper crust suggests a 'millefeuille' lithospheric strength profile, with competent SCLM, mid- to deep, and upper crustal layers. Mechanically strong deep crustal felsic and mafic granulite layers are attributed to dehydration and melt extraction. Intra-crustal decoupling along a ductile décollement in the W Superior led to the preservation of early-formed deep structures that acted as conduits for magma transport into the overlying crust and focussed hydrothermal fluid flow during regional deformation. Increase in the thickness of semi-brittle layers in the lower crust during regional metamorphism would result in an increase in fracturing and faulting in the lower crust, facilitating hydrothermal and carbonic fluid flow in pathways linking SCLM to the upper crust, a factor explaining the late timing for most orogenic Au. Results provide an important new dataset for regional prospectively mapping, especially with machine learning, and exploration targeting for Au and Ni-Cr-Cu-PGE mineralization. Results also furnish evidence for parautochthonous development of the S Superior Province during plume-related rifting and cannot be explained by conventional subduction and arc-accretion models.
