Full textAbstract:
The Saguenay fjord contains ten port agglomerations, among which that of Port-Alfred-Bagotville is the most important. The port of Port-Alfred started to expand in earnest in 1929, when the Aluminum Company of Canada Limited decided to improve and enlarge its facilities to meet the needs of its new Arvida plant. Today some 2,500 ships call at Port-Alfred yearly and over 3,500,000 tons of cargo are handled annually over its wharves. Imports of industrial commodities, notably aluminum ore from Guiana, make up the greater part of its traffic. The hinterland includes some ten important industrial establishments, distributed among the main centres of the Saguenay - Lake St. John area. Among these, ALCAN is the most important. Port-Alfred plays an important role in this industrial complex. In spite of certain handicaps, traffic pertaining to the aluminum and newsprint industries assures the harbour of con-tinuing prosperity in the years to come. One may even hope that further develop-ments in the hinterland will contribute to future growth of port activity. Located half a mile northeast of Port-Alfred, Bagotville seems more like an appendix of its powerful neighbour than an autonomous port. Its facilities and traffic are quite limited. The main port traffic up until 1965, but now discontinued, consisted of the calls of the Canada Steamship Lines' passenger vessels during the summer season.

Full textAbstract:
The Saguenay - Lake Saint-Jean region was only settled during the past one hundred years but now contains a population of approximately 260,000 (1961). This rapid growth of population is explained in great measure by an exceptionally high rate of natural increase. Much urbanisation bas recently occurred, particularly in the upper Saguenay area where the conurbation consisting of Chicoutimi, Jonquiere, Kénogami, Arvida, Bagotville and Port-Alfred now bas a population of over 110,000. The regional economy is based to a certain extent upon agriculture, with a specialisation in dairy farming. However, the principal emphasis is upon the aluminium and paper industries, which are supported by the great local hydro-electric power resources. The local economy is, however, dangerously subject to fluctuations of the international market.

Les villes de Chicoutimi, Jonquière-Kénogami, Arvida et Port-Alfred-Bagotville sont de plus en plus envisagées en tant qu'ensemble urbain et constituent ce qu'on appelle, depuis une douzaine d'années, la Conurbation du Saguenay. Sans être totalement contiguës, elles sont, en effet, suffisamment rapprochées pour entretenir entre elles des relations de complémentarité et chacune n'en demeure pas moins bien individualisée. Dans le présent article, cette individualité est démontrée par l'examen de leurs structures spatiales respectives, dont l'arrangement présente peu de points communs avec celles des quartiers d'une même ville ou des dépendances d'une « ville-centrale ». Quant à leur complémentarité, elle est exprimée au moyen d'un « taux de dépendance » dont le calcul s'effectue en s'inspirant du concept du « Minimum requirement », de Ullman et Dacey.

Purpose This scholarly work aims to investigate the business career of Alfred J. Kohlberg, an American importer of hand-embroidered handkerchiefs in 1922-1957. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses archival resources from the National Archives, the Herbert Hoover Presidential Library, the Hoover Institution Archives, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Custom Courts records, Japanese Government records and other government documents. Findings Scholars have focused on how Kohlberg’s political activities paved the way for McCarthyism. The sources of his vast wealth have not received attention. Kohlberg parlayed a 1922 trip to Asia into a highly lucrative importing business specializing in Chinese napery. By 1930, he mostly imported hand-embroidered handkerchiefs for sale in upscale American department stores. He employed as many 12,000 people in his Shantou godown and contracted for the employment of at least 100,000 embroiderers and perhaps many hundreds of thousands more. Despite American Government policy and the wishes of other importers, Japanese occupation authority documents show that Kohlberg negotiated a bribe to keep the port open. This paper concludes that Kohlberg’s business reflected traditional Chinese business organization. While he stressed his patriotic activities during the Second World War, Kohlberg promoted his business interest over the national interest. Finally, the Chaoshan Region prospered by providing the modern world with traditional hand-produced goods. Research limitations/implications This work explains how the Chaoshan Region functioned in the global economy. It calls for a deeper examination of this entire industry in China and around the world. Originality/value This work uses documents from multiple archives, including Japan and the USA. It also includes declassified documents from the Federal Bureau Investigation. This work constitutes a template for international business history.

Abstract Roberts, M. J., Downey, N. J., and Sauer, W. H. 2012. The relative importance of shallow and deep shelf spawning habitats for the South African chokka squid (Loligo reynaudii). – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 69: 563–571. It is well known that the spawning grounds of chokka squid Loligo reynaudii lie along the shallow inshore regions of South Africa's south coast. However, egg masses have been found in deeper water on the Agulhas Bank, and hydroacoustic targets deemed to be large aggregations of spawning squid have been identified. The aim of this study was to investigate the extent, depth range, and importance of deep spawning. Trawl data collected during demersal research surveys between Port Nolloth on the west and Port Alfred on the south coast were examined for egg capsules. No spawning was found on the west coast. Data showed that chokka squid preferred the eastern Agulhas Bank for spawning. Spawning occurred not only inshore but also on the mid-shelf extending to depths of 270 m near the shelf edge. Squid egg biomass markedly decreased beyond 70 m, suggesting delineation between the inshore and offshore spawning grounds. Total egg biomass calculations for depths shallower and deeper than 70 m indicated the coastal area to be strongly favoured, i.e. 82 vs. 18%. These results contest the commonly accepted notion that L. reynaudii is an inshore spawner and redefine the spawning grounds to extend across the shelf.

Russian Army Headquarters and Maritime Fleet planned to build a sea and land fortress, and Major General Ivan Alfred McDonald developed a project on August 30, 1892. Near Naval Port and the Lake Tosmare Apparent Heir’s Grove and residential buildings with streets were built. Residential buildings were built in “New World” – land between Romny Railway and Grobin Highway. In Liepaja 1922 administrative border plan development was started to include the Lake Liepaja’s northern part into the urban territory. Low-rise residential buildings of Aspazija’s (former Apparent Heir’s) Grove were supplemented. Research issue – building structure and development of residential buildings of Libava Maritime fortress territory has been studied insufficiently. Novelty characteristics – low-rise residential buildings’ construction and street network of Apparent Heir’s Grove has been analysed. Research goal – analyse “New World” and low-rise residential building and planning of the Lake Tosmare surroundings till World War II. Principal research methods – planning and construction observation in nature, archive and cartographic material analysis. Brief description of research outcomes: fortress built on the Baltic Seacoast affected further development of the territory. Nowadays development of qualitative architectonic space without historical development analysis is impossible.

Thesis (Masters Diploma (Town and Regional Planning- Environmental Management))--Cape Technikon, Cape Town,1990This report proposes a strategy for the development Port Alfred situated on the south east coast of the Province, South Africa. of cape The proposed development strategy takes cognisance of the importance of integrating development harmoniously with the environment. The study is not related to any particular development proposal but is rather a guide to future development and the identification of potential environmental hazards. Moreover, it could serve as a set of guidelines for land use planning and management at the urban scale anywhere in South Africa. The evaluation methods used are adapted from widely acceptable analysis techniques and include a combination of both the matrix and the overlay or "sieve" method which graphically analyses physical attributes. The study eminates from the Port Alfred Municipality's concern that demand for development could destroy the town's environmental quality and historical character which are seen as major tourist attractions. The report is divided into two sections, the first being to acquaint the reader with the area, it's constraints and potential. section 1 critically evaluates the existing physical, socio-economic and cultural environments of the town. The second part of the report (Section 2), combines the analysis of the physical and socio-economic environments into an Urban structure Plan and management proposals which provide a basis for the spatial management and control of future land use development proposals. The management proposals are based on the Integrated Environmental Management procedure advocated by the council for the Environment which is adapted to suit local conditions and includes the use of a three stage "proposal call" system which is seen to ensure an equitable balance between the demand for development, public participation and conservation of the town's biotic and abiotic environments. The "proposal call" system has been successfully employed in the United states of America for some years and was adopted by the cape Town city council in 1985 for disposing of council-owned land in a manner most acceptable to itself and the community. By combining both the principle of Integrated Environmental Management and the "proposal call" system Port Alfred should be assured of a future planning strategy which will both enhance development and promote environmental conservation thereby assuring the maintenance of environmental quality.

Full textAbstract:
Since the study on the Port Alfred/Kenton-on-Sea/Boknes linefishery by Hecht and Tilney (1989) there have been substantive changes to the linefish management environment in South Africa. Using the Port Alfred linefishery as a model, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the linefish management regulations that were implemented by Marine and Coastal Management (MCM) since 1992, and to assess the behaviour and 'status' of the fishery in response to these changes. Changes to both the licensing structure and catch regulations have had a significant effect on the functioning of many aspects of the Port Alfred linefishery (fishing effort, catch composition, cpue) as well as on the structure of the fishery and its socio-economic profile. Overall commercial cpue decreased from 1985 to 1998. Since 1998 there has been a significant increase in cpue (from 2.3 Kg.fisher⁻¹ hour⁻¹ to a peak of 4.8 Kg.fisher⁻¹.hour⁻¹ in 2005. This was attributed to good catches of geelbek, particularly in 2005, 2007 and 2008 (during these years geelbek contributed an average of 35% to the total landings in comparison to a mean contribution of II % between 1985 and 2004). However, size spectra analysis suggests that the increase in overall cpue since 1998 misrepresents the actual status of the fishery. If geelbek is excluded from the analysis on the grounds that it is the only species in the fishery that is highly migratory, susceptible to recruitment fluctuations and it does not contribute to the catches on a year round basis, then the results suggest that the fishery is still in a declining phase despite the 80% reduction in commercial effort and numerous stricter catch regulations (e.g. size/bag limits). Furthermore, the cpue of silver kob, which has been the "mainstay" species of the fishery, has consistently declined over the last 23 year period (from 1.69 Kg.fisher⁻1 .hour1 in 1986 to 0.86 Kg.fisher⁻1.hour⁻1in 2007). The substantial reduction in commercial effort in the fishery from 33 vessels in 2001 to 13 in 2002 resulted in a shift from commercial to recreational fishing. The number of active commercial vessels in Port Alfred alone decreased from 29 in 1989 (Hecht 1993) to four in 2008. During the same timeframe, the number of regularly active recreational vessels had almost doubled (16 in 1989 to 26 in 2008). Despite the greater number of recreational boats in the fishery they only landed approximately half the average yearly tonnage of the commercial vessels (21,5 and 44,7 tonnes,annum-I , respectively) between 2006 and 2008, This was ascribed to the differences in catch regulations for the two sectors, Furthermore, it was speculated that increasing operating costs and narrowing profit margins have contributed to lower levels of compliance in both the commercial and recreational sectors since 2006, For example, 16% of silver kob landed during 2006-08 were under the minimum size, Despite the changes made to the regulations since 1998 and the 60,6% reduction In legislated commercial effort in the fishery between 2001 and 2002 it was concluded that the fishery has continued to decline, Except for the good recruitment of geelbek (which may be due to regulatory changes made in 1992) the changes in the management environment have had no measurable positive effect on this fishery, It is recommended that commercial effort should not be allowed to increase beyond the current number of active boats, that there should be an area restriction on all commerciallinefish vessels, that the current recreational bag limit for silver kob should be re-assessed, there should also be a concerted and nationally funded effort to educate recreational anglers about the merits of catch and release, and the frequency of catch inspections of both sectors should be increased,KMBT_363

Full textAbstract:
Ichthyoplankton dynamics in the permanently open Kowie Estuary, in the warm temperate region of South Africa was investigated. The composition, abundance, distribution and seasonality of larval fishes were studied over a two year period between 2004 and 2006. Additionally, tidal exchange of ichthyoplankton and the use of frontal zones in the mouth region of the estuary were also explored between 2008 and 2009. Temporal and spatial trends in occurrence of larval fishes within the estuary and associated marina were obtained from data collected seasonally using boat-based plankton netting at 14 sampling stations along the length of the estuary. A total of 11 128 larval fishes were collected, representing 23 families and 38 taxa. Clupeidae and Gobiidae were the dominant fish families, contributing 47.0 % and 24.7 % respectively to the total catch. Estuarine resident species dominated the overall catch (91 %). A notable absence of older stage larvae and early juveniles characterised the artificial channels of the marina and estuary mouth region. This was attributed to the absence of a shallow, marginal water habitat typical of successful estuarine nursery areas. Tidal exchange of larval fishes was investigated in the Kowie Estuary using a new technique. A set of drifting light traps were set repetitively on the ebb and flood tide every second night for two consecutive 14 day periods during the peak estuarine recruitment period. A total of 553 larval fishes were caught during the study, representing nine families and 26 species. Blenniidae and Clupeidae dominated the catches. Family and species occurrence changed with tide state. Species richness (d) and diversity (H’) varied with tide and was highest on flood tides. Estuary-dependent species, such as Omobranchus woodii were more dominant on flood tides, whilst larvae of marine-spawned species, such as Sardinops sagax, were dominant on the ebb tide. Light trap catches yielded a different composition in terms of development stage / size and species, when compared to towed net studies. Towed plankton nets were again used to study the shear fronts that characterise the mouth region of the canalised Kowie Estuary. It was hypothesised that the convergence zone of the front provides feeding opportunities for ichthyoplankton. Ichthyoplankton, zooplankton and phytoplankton was collected from within and immediately outside of the convergence zone during frontal conditions. Species specific distribution trends emerged from this study. Postflexion larvae and early juvenile stages of the estuary dependent Mugilidae were only present in the foam line of the convergence zones. Some known predators of ichthyoplankton were also present in slightly higher numbers in the convergence zone (isopods) while other predators such as mysid shrimps, chaetognaths and cnidarians were more abundant out of the convergence zone. It appears that these zones may provide access to temporary food patches in the lower estuary but will be accompanied by a trade-off with increased isopod predators. The Kowie Estuary is a heavily impacted system and lack of adequate freshwater supply; artificial channelling and pollution ultimately have a negative impact of the success of this system as a nursery area. Rehabilitation of marginal areas in the lower estuary and marina is suggested as remedial action to re-establish the integrity of the nursery function this system could offer.

Full textAbstract:
The problem that was chosen to be investigated, was that, within the white middle class South African white-collar worker there appears to be a tendency to live for the "pie in the sky" - which for most seems to be retirement to the idyllic cottage by the sea. Within the South African scenario, there seems to be a definite lack of career planning or at least planning for retirement, other than the financial emphasis. Upon reaching the "ultimate" retirement, retirees take their pension money and move to the coast, expecting pure bliss. The result of their lack of forethought is that they settle in a totally different climate, away from the support of family and friends, possibly finding their income inadequate, with the result that many fall seriously ill, and then discover a lack of geriatric care or a hospital at the time in their lives when they need it the most. The aim of the research was to investigate these issues using a specific location - Port Alfred, researching the fact that Port Alfred continues to be a retirement haven, despite appearing to lack the necessary facilities required by the elderly. The method of the research was to initially administer a pilot questionnaire to a few elderly residents at random, which was then followed up by the formal personally administered questionnaire to a sample. The sample of retired elderly residents in Port Alfred was chosen at random primarily from the various old age homes in Port Alfred. This questionnaire was administered in 1983 but due to financial and personal reasons, the results were not written up. In 1990, the research was continued with a further questionnaire being administered in 1991. The research direction was altered slightly to identify not only what resources were felt to be lacking, but also to identify how well the retired persons of Port Alfred had managed their transition to retirement. The results showed some similarity between the 1983 and the 1991 research. On the surface the retirees appeared well-adjusted and content, but when it was delved deeper, they appeared to have opted out of making any great effort to change their situation, but rather had taken the view that they had earned their rest, would make the best of what they had, and leave it to someone else to champion their cause. This meant that they relied heavily upon those in their community to meet their obvious needs. The promised hospital that they had arduously raised funds for had not materialised, and that seemed to have been the last effort that they had been prepared to make, they were now at rest. The conclusion was that, although the retirees had made the best of their situation, this definitely did not mean that their resources were adequate. Various charities and social services were at work in the community to redress the imbalance, but it was felt that these would in turn benefit by the addition of a social worker. This social worker would coordinate these services and take responsibility for the community at large, particularly addressing the need to unify the services with those to the large non-White community, in the (on-going) development of the New South Africa

Full textAbstract:
The presence of a semi-permanent upwelling cell, with a surface expression more than 40 % of the time has previously been described inshore of the Agulhas Current in the vicinity of Port Alfred, South Africa. This study employs a combination of in-situ mooring data, hydrographic cruises and satellite remote sensing in order to investigate the nature and variability of this upwelling cell, as well as to investigate possible driving mechanisms. The study takes place over a period of 11 months. Special focus is given to the subsurface variability due to its possible implications for the greater Agulhas Bank environment. Upwelled water was found to be present on the shelf 85% of the time, highlighting the importance of subsurface variability in this area. The main timescales of variability were observed at 50-70 days, 8-12 days and 4-6 days. Upwelling was found to be maintained by continuous processes, driven by the interaction of the Agulhas Current with the changing bathymetry at Port Alfred. This upwelling is modulated by the effects of mesoscale features on the inshore edge of the current. While not a primary driver of upwelling, wind events were observed to have an effect on inshore bottom temperatures as well as the surface expression of the upwelling cell. A high degree of variability in was observed, with bottom temperatures at three mooring site fluctuating through a range of approximately 10° C. Future directions include further theoretical and idealised modeling studies to separate out the exact mechanisms of topographically driven, site-specific upwelling. The range of mesoscale interactions of the Agulhas Current with the shelf circulation also require further observational study.

Full textAbstract:
Estuaries serve as nursery areas for a large number of estuary-associated fish species. Some of these taxa also use river catchments as nursery areas. During the upstream migration of this latter group, the juveniles are prone to predation by native and alien predatory fish inhabiting the system. The rate of invasion of ecosystems by alien organisms can be directly linked to anthropogenic influences, including both intentional and unintentional introductions by alien organisms into new regions. The largemouth bass, Micropterus salmoides, is a facultative piscivorous fish that has been successfully introduced worldwide for the main purpose of sport fishing. Where introduced, it has been found to negatively impact native fish and invertebrate species through predation, competitive exclusion and displacement of indigenous fish species. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the predatory impact of largemouth bass on the estuary-associated Cape moony Monodactylus falciformis, Cape stumpnose Rhabdosargus holubi and freshwater mullet Myxus capensis in the lower Kowie River of the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa. A combination of approaches was employed during this study. Stomach contents, stable isotopes and fatty acid analyses were employed for the reconstruction of the diet of largemouth bass. Acoustic telemetry was used to elucidate largemouth bass movements, particularly their ability to enter the upper reaches of the Kowie Estuary. Stomach contents and stable isotopes analyses showed that M. salmoides exhibit an ontogenic shift in diet, with small and medium sized individuals consuming the higher proportion of fish prey, while large sized individuals mostly consumed invertebrates such as crabs (Potamonautes sidneyi) and Odonata larvae, while consuming only a small proportion of estuary-associated fish. Fatty acid analysis only showed a direct connection between the fatty acid profiles of largemouth bass and those of M. capensis and M. falciformis. The acoustic telemetry results indicated that some M. salmoides individuals periodically move into the upper reaches of the estuary following river flood events. The results obtained from all these approaches highlight the risk posed by largemouth bass introductions on indigenous fish species, particularly those that enter the areas occupied by these top predators.

Full textAbstract:
This study sought to explore and explain the impact of labour laws on small firms, focusing on employer perceptions of the Labour Relations Act of 1995 and the Basic Conditions of Employment Act of 1997 in three towns of the Eastern Cape. It is important to focus on this impact of labour laws on these firms because of the high unemployment that faces the country. In this regard, it must be emphasised, firstly, that small firms are central to job creation; therefore, they contribute to a reduction in the unemployment rate; hence, the strategies created by the government to reduce any burdens (including regulatory burdens) on small firms. It is therefore important to study the impact of labour law on small businesses in order to assess the regulatory burden on small firms. The theoretical framework which underpins this study on the impact of labour law on small firms arises from the neo-corporatist critique of neo-liberalism. The two frameworks maintain the extent to which the government should intervene in the industrial relations system. Liberalism maintains that there should be a minimum role of the government, which involves only the facilitation of a framework for negotiations between employers and employees. Corporatism, however, maintains a social democratic approach, and holds that there should be an active role of the government in the industrial relations system with business, labour and the state working co-operatively (Klerck, 2009). This theoretical framework therefore shapes the extent to which employers perceive labour laws or state’s regulatory role impacts small businesses. The data was collected through the qualitative inquiry; using face-to-face, semi-structured interviews. The findings in this study included negative employer perceptions of labour laws. More specifically, many of the employers that were interviewed claimed that labour laws were burdensome on their businesses. They claimed that labour laws imposed financial and administrative costs to their firms, negatively affected the employer-employee relationships in these firms as well as the employing decisions of the employers. As a result, the employers saw labour laws as undermining flexibility and imposing unfair rigidities on small firms. Furthermore, employers perceived South African labour laws as not addressing the unique iii circumstances of small firms. They maintained that labour laws treated small firms similarly to large firms. Even though the employers held these perceptions of labour laws, it was evident that these subjective perceptions did not reflect the objective impact of labour laws on small firms. This was firstly related to the fact that many of the employers that were interviewed had negative views of labour laws but these views were not substantiated by particular events in their firms. Secondly, it was revealed that the employers’ perceptions of labour laws were based on their misconception or misunderstanding of labour law. Thirdly, it was revealed in this thesis that small firms were not affected in the same way to big firms by labour regulation. This was related to the fact that many of the small firms’ employers that were interviewed tended to be less concerned by regulation. Specifically, although many employers that were interviewed claimed that labour laws were burdensome on their firms it was evident that regulation was avoided because of the informality that characterised these firms. Consequently informality mediated the impact of labour laws on these firms, and labour laws imposed less ‘costs’ on these firms. However, it cannot be argued that small firms are isolated from the sphere of labour laws. Rather, although these firms were governed by regulation it was found that the extent to which employers complied with regulation depended on the extent to which organisational practice already reflected similarity with the legislative objective.Acrobat PDFMaker 10.1 for Word

Gout was once a common malady that immobilized many of the upper class males of ancient Rome and imperial Britain. Both societies blamed it on too much rich food and wine, and they may have been right. The Roman writers, Seneca, Virgil, Juvenal, and Ovid all poked fun at the sufferers of gout, as did the London cartoonists; the popular belief was that it was a just punishment for over-indulgence. Physicians knew of the pain it caused and discovered that it was due to sharp crystals of uric acid between the joints of the bones; but what caused these to form? Among those affected by gout were Benjamin Franklin, one of the founding fathers of the United States of America, British Prime Minister William Pitt, poet Alfred Lord Tennyson, biologist Charles Darwin, and the founder of Methodism, John Wesley. It has been suggested that Alexander the Great, Kubla Khan, Christopher Columbus, Martin Luther, John Milton, and Isaac Newton also suffered its agonies. In the last century, it was found that more than a third of those suffering from gout had high levels of lead in their blood. It now seems likely that earlier generations had exposed themselves to gout by a fondness for port wine, which was invariably tainted with lead, and kept in lead crystal decanters. At various times in the 1700s, the British were at war with the French and no longer imported their wines or brandy, although quite a lot was smuggled into the country. Instead Englishmen turned to drinking the wines of their most faithful ally, Portugal. These, like port and Madeira, contained lead, and they became so popular that by the 1820s more than 20 million litres of port were being imported annually. Bottles of this age have been analysed for their lead content and shown to have in excess of 1 ppm suggesting that the risk of serious lead poisoning from such drink was relatively low, although it would have had an effect. Indeed the lead may have simply served as an irritant to the gut, which is why a glass of port at the end of a meal was reputed to have a laxative effect by the following morning.

An immense sand fort guards the entrance to the Cape Fear River and the fairway to Wilmington, the last major open port of the Confederacy, through which blockade runners supply vital materiel for Gen. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia. On Christmas Eve 1864, a U.S. Navy armada unleashes the heaviest bombardment in history on the fort, in advance of landing 6,500 assault troops. But the U.S. commander, Maj. Gen. Benjamin F. Butler, falters, and only 2,300 troops make it ashore in roughening weather. They are stranded on the cold beach overnight without shelter. In the morning, the fleet sails away. Just three weeks later an even more powerful assault force returns, including USCT, who will play a crucial role in the battle. This assault is led by Brig. Gen. Alfred Terry and after six hours of heavy hand-to hand fighting forces the surrender of the fort.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter considers the range of work on Anglo-Saxon vernacular chronicles at Canterbury after the Norman Conquest, including additions to Chronicles A and B, and the making of the bilingual Latin and Old English Chronicle F. The scribe of Chronicle F and his monastic house, Christ Church, connected to Canterbury’s archbishops, emerge as major players. The range, which included contact with Chronicle D, the use of Chronicle /E, and the making of a brief Chronicle I, suggests a conscious engagement with the tradition of vernacular chronicle writing and an awareness of what united it. The voice of F is more overtly monastic, with Christ Church history incorporated into the story. The bilingual F, including new Latin annals, some on Norman history, in both F and /E, addressed a new mixed audience and the new situation the Conquest had created. Additions on popes and their relations with archbishops address wider European changes.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter focuses on the manuscript and last stages of Chronicle D, the relationship of work on D to 1066 and the problem of where and for whom this chronicle’s last stages were written. It covers the complex palaeography and layout of Chronicle D, and the difficulties caused by its loss of several folios and their later replacement. The chapter argues that the core of D is pre-1066, in large part probably produced in the 1040s, but that much copying and some rewriting occurred post-1066. Key English survivors are central to Chronicle D—descendants of the pre-1066 dynasty, Edgar the ætheling and his sister Margaret, who married the Scottish king; Ealdred, last Anglo-Saxon archbishop of York; bishops of Durham in retirement at Peterborough; and Earl Waltheof. No single home is suggested for Chronicle D’s last stages whose writing may reflect the diaspora of these pre-1066 survivors.

Full textAbstract:
En una de sus excéntricas ocurrencias, Alfred Jarry asegura que el agua es un veneno corrosivo, capaz de destrozar, con una sola gota, la pureza de un líquido (por ejemplo, la absenta, adorada por el autor y en gran medida factor desencadenante de su prematura muerte). Lo mismo le decía a su amiga, la escritora Rachilde, advertiéndole sobre el peligro de envenenarse, puesto que el agua contiene todos los microbios «de la tierra y del cielo». En este contexto vital claramente reacio a considerar el agua como una bebida adecuada, surgieron escritos que la valorizan, por otra parte, en su amplia y ancestral capacidad simbólica. La obra de Alfred Jarry comprende múltiples declinaciones del imaginario acuático, aún poco exploradas por la crítica. Nuestro trabajo se porpone analizar las particularidades de la presencia acuática en uno de sus escritos más abundantes en este aspecto, L'Autre Alceste.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/XXVColloqueAFUE.2016.3075

O artigo estuda a variação do volume de pasta nos concretos autoadensáveis (CAA) obtidos no estudo prévio de Monteiro et al. (2015), apresentado no HAC2015, verificando o atendimento às propriedades de autoadensabilidade. A garantia destas propriedades depende da composição dos agregados. Estudos têm obtido composições ótimas de agregados aplicando modelos de empacotamento de partículas, menor porosidade. Porém, a garantia da autoadensabilidade pode elevar o volume de pasta. Esta garante a mobilidade e é influenciada pela composição dos agregados. Neste contexto, o estudo utilizando as diferentes composições de agregados propostas por Monteiro et al. (2015), obtidas pelo critério do menor teor de vazios, avalia estas composições buscando-se um menor volume de pasta que atendesse a autoadensabilidade. As composições de agregados de cada combinação (binária, ternária e quaternária) foram avaliadas através do módulo de distribuição (q) do modelo de empacotamento de Alfred. O volume de pasta de 40%, inicialmente utilizado nos CAA por Monteiro et al. (2015), foi reduzido para 38% e 35%, nos CAAs que atenderam os parâmetros de autoadensabilidade. A composição da pasta manteve-se fixa. A autoadensabilidade foi avaliada nos ensaios de espalhamento (slump flow), Funil V e caixa L. Os resultados mostraram que as composições com maior volume de pasta (40%) nem sempre atenderam aos valores de q indicados na literatura para CAA. As composições selecionadas de cada combinação (binária, ternária e quaternária) com 38% de pasta atenderam a autoadensabilidade. Já as mesmas composições com 35% de pasta apenas a quaternária atendeu.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/HAC2018.2018.6045

Full textAbstract:
En un contexto audiovisual caracterizado por el exceso y el abuso figurativo, parece que funcionan mejor aquellas películas terroríficas en las que el elemento monstruoso no se muestra ante los ojos del espectador. La finalidad de este texto será entonces comprobar si, frente a las representaciones cinematográficas normativas, la no-presentación de la figura de la bruja favorece en la contemporaneidad audiovisual a los objetivos de las películas de terror. Consideraremos además los posibles motivos que propician la asiduidad del motivo brujesco femenino (invisible o no) en las producciones cinematográficas de terror, cuestión que parece deberse al hecho de que el horror subraya lo diferente, y la bruja puede ser entendida como ese otro monstruoso y terrible. La asociación de la mujer con la otredad parece ser lo que favorece que la bruja se convierta en el estereotipo terrorífico ideal según las normas del patriarcado. Partiremos del paradigma de la invisibilidad perversa asociada a lo brujesco, la señora de Winter (Rebeca, Alfred Hitchcock, 1940), para reflexionar sobre determinados filmes recientes, como La bruja de Blair (Adam Wingard, 2016). Realizaremos un estudio basado en la confrontación, estableciendo analogías entre estas películas sin brujas palpables y aquellas otras en las que lo brujeril se vuelve exagerado y cargado de estereotipos: Hansel y Gretel: Cazadores de brujas (Tommy Wirkola, 2013), Expediente Warren: The Conjuring (James Wan, 2013), La noche de la bruja (Alex Merkin, 2017), etc. Concluiremos observando si en los casos de estudio analizados encontramos diferencias notables deducidas del modo en que se presenta el monstruo; esto es, si se generan significados distintos en función del grado de visibilidad del elemento brujesco, y si los efectos producidos en el espectador varían.

Full textAbstract:
The steel catenary riser was adopted by Petrobras as a cost-effective alternative for oil and gas export and for water injection lines on deepwater fields, where large diameter flexible risers present technical and economic limitations. The installation of the P-18 SCR was a pioneer project of a free-hanging steel catenary riser linked to a semi-submersible [1] and demonstrated the technical feasibility of the concept. Fatigue damage verification is an important issue in SCR design, demanding a high number of loading cases to be analyzed. The random time domain nonlinear analysis is considered an attractive and reliable tool for fatigue analysis as nonlinearities are properly modeled and the random behaviour of environmental loadings is considered. As time domain analysis is high computer time consuming, the frequency domain analysis has been considered as an alternative tool for the initial phases of riser design to be used mainly for fatigue damage verification. This paper presents a methodology developed to perform a linearized frequency domain analysis aiming at fatigue damage verification. Two drilling risers were analyzed with the frequency domain procedure developed. The model of a steel lazy-wave riser was analyzed both in frequency and time domain in order to compare fatigue damage results. The analyses were performed using the Petrobras’s in-house computer codes ANFLEX, ALFREQ and POSFAL developed and implemented as part of projects from CENPES/PETROBRAS with “COPPE/UFRJ -The Engineering Post-Graduating Coordination of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro”.

Full textAbstract:
Siguiendo las premisas de Chantal Mouffe, se plantea aquí la posibilidad de un arte crítico –denominado “agonista”–, que pueda ser útil para visibilizar los problemas sociales y concienciar a la población de estar en su derecho de ejercer una razón pública o democracia radical. Dentro de las patologías hiperexpresivas que acarrea el orden simbólico hegemónico que impone el sistema capitalista, el malestar que ante ello pueda haber en la cultura y sus espacios de representación, nos conduce a reflexionar sobre cómo este tipo de arte puede distinguirse de lo que Franco Berardi denomina como “ruido blanco”, para que su mensaje pueda ser recibido por el espectador. Si se analiza cómo funciona este “esquizofrénico” sistema de excesivos flujos semióticos, para muchos de los cuales no tenemos capacidad de interpretación, podemos comprobar que guarda una contradicción intrínseca que, según Deleuze, se halla íntimamente unida al psicoanálisis, lo cual establece una conjunción entre producción “deseante” y producción de enunciados como mecánica que acaba activando los flujos económicos que lo sostienen. Esta circunstancia de sobrecarga infocrática en la que el sistema basa su poder, afecta también a la producción cultural, sus códigos o los mensajes que lanza, extendiendo una red soportada en la mercantilización que también repercute en lo institucional o viceversa. Saber en qué medida somos cómplices de esta situación es un primer paso para luego distinguir cómo cierto tipo de arte escapa de esa red y, a través de lo emocional ya como única fisura por la que “colarse”, llega al espectador con otro tipo de consignas que puedan llegar a hacer que se conciencie de situaciones de desigualdad provocadas por el mismo sistema. Hacer hincapié en esta posibilidad es volver a la idea de “intelectualidad orgánica”, desarrollada por Gramsci, para aplicarla al territorio del arte y hacer ver cómo este espacio de representación es uno de los pocos que aún posee capacidad para vincularse orgánicamente con la comunidad y transformar el hegemónico orden simbólico impuesto por el sistema neoliberal, en función de devolver al pueblo su autonomía y poder de decisión sobre las cuestiones sociales que lo conciernen. Según esta razón, existe toda una línea artística, de Joseph Beuys a Alfredo Jaar por ejemplo, comprometida con este tipo de concienciación; practicas artísticas que, en su conjunto, se adecúan a la idea de este “arte agonista” que aquí se explica.

"A Frequency Domain Approach for the Random Fatigue Analysis of SCR Considering Bimodal/Bidirectional Characteristic of Campos Basin Sea States." In ASME 2005 24th International Conference on Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering. ASMEDC, 2005. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/omae2005-67038.
Full textAbstract:
Fatigue verification is an important issue in steel risers design, demanding a good representation of the loading conditions that will occur during the riser entire lifetime. PETROBRAS has carried out a series of measurement and acquisition programs over the past decade, including the Campos Basin simultaneous acquisition of waves, current and wind data. The campaigns are called the PROCAP1 in Marlim Field and PROCAP2 in Barracuda Field. Those programs provided simultaneous environmental data (wave, wind and current) containing multimodal / multidirectional sea-states that occur in Campos Basin, with two main peaks dominating the total energy content [20,21]. As fatigue damage calculation depends on the stresses variations during the lifetime of the structure, the set of loads used in the analysis should be complete enough to represent all possible situations. The high number of loading conditions used in riser fatigue verification associated with the random time-domain analysis that demands a high computer time for processing the analysis, impact the design schedule. The frequency domain approach, based on linearization techniques, is an alternative tool for riser analysis and has been studied mainly for structural fatigue verification applications. For this particular application, due to the low intensity of loadings, the geometric nonlinearity is considered by means of a previous nonlinear static analysis, followed by a dynamic frequency domain analysis on the deformed model. The nonlinearity of the drag part of Morison’s formula has to be conveniently treated by linearization techniques. This work presents a comparative study where the results using a frequency domain analysis are compared to the results of a time domain analysis. Both approaches were used in the analysis of a steel lazy-wave riser (SLWR) model connected to a spread-moored FPSO, submitted to fatigue environmental loadings considering the bimodal/bidirectional characteristic of Campos Basin sea-states. The analyses were performed using the PETROBRAS’s in-house computer codes ANFLEX, ALFREQ and POSFAL developed and implemented as part of projects from CENPES/PETROBRAS with “COPPE/UFRJ - The Engineering Post-Graduating Coordination of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro”.
