Abstract:
The Aufret ring, acquired by the Victoria and Albert Museum in 1871, has long been considered an Anglo-Saxon artefact, its inscription counted as part of the Anglo-Saxon heritage. Because of the similarity between the names Aufret and Alfred, it became associated with this king and with a ‘lost’ ninth-century coin hoard allegedly found with the ring. On the continent, however, the ring sits comfortably in a well-attested corpus of Lombard seal rings of the seventh century. Thanks to some archive archaeology and the identification of a drawing of the ring in a publication of Ludovico Muratori, an eighteenth-century antiquary, the story of the ring can be traced from its retrieval amongst the ruins of a tomb in Bagnoregio in 1726, to its acquisition by an Italian collector, the Marquis Capponi, until his death in 1746. In 1857 the ring was presented to Edmund Waterton, FSA, who eventually sold it to the Victoria and Albert Museum. By tracing the historical background, and demolishing a few misattributions, this paper restores the Aufret ring to its Lombard context.

Abstract:
The life-style and politics of Stefan Radoslav bear the mark of activities that indicated his special attachment to the Byzantine world. These activities were prompted by a combination of ideological ambitions and political reality, but they were not in keeping with the modest achievements of Radoslav's reign. Moreover, most of these activities belong to the time when Radoslav was heir to the throne. There is no doubt that Stefan Nemanjic the Grand Zhupan and subsequently the first crowned king, had exclusive connections with the Byzantine dynasty of the Angeloi, especially with the emperor Alexios III (1195-1203). In that context, the donor's inscription in the basic ring of the dome in the Church of the Mother of God in Studenica (1208), in which his father Stefan Nemanja, is mentioned as (former) 'veleslavni gospodin vse srbske zemlje veli(ki) zupan i svat cara grckog kir Alesija', is quite indicative. This ideological construction would acquire a contour in reality by means of a political marriage with one of the female offspring of Angeloi lineage, which would represent an alternative solution to Stefan's failed marriage with Eudocia, daughter of the emperor Alexios. Instead, several years elapsed in waging war with the Latins, the Bulgarians and the State of Epiros. However, efforts to create firmer, more tangible ties with the Angeloi dynasty from Epiros were not forgotten. Therefore, the Serbian monarch brought his eldest son Radoslav into play, intending to have him act as a link with the Angeloi bloodline. As a result of all this, the final attempt to have Radoslav become the husband of a princess from the Angelos dynasty is not surprising. At the end of 1219 or the beginning of 1220, he married Anna Doukaina, the daughter of the epirotic ruler Theodore I Angelos Doukas Komnenos, which at that point represented a marriage connection of the highest possible level between two ruling houses. Stefan's insistence on Serbia acquiring a stake in the Byzantine succession could not have been expressed more clearly. Radoslav now had a solid position in that succession. On his engagement ring we read: '(This is) the engagement ring of Stefan, a descendant of the house of Doukai, and therefore, Anna, of the family of Komnenoi, receive it into your hands'. This brief text should be connected to the most important part of the inscription from the dome in Studenica. The statement of kinship with the Doukai must be interpreted as a statement of kinship with the Angeloi dynasty, that is, with Alexios III Angelos. In the said circumstances, it confirms the identification of the Byzantine emperor depicted in the Mileseva monastery, opposite to the figures of Stefan the First-Crowned and Radoslav, as Alexios III Angelos. Thus Mileseva highlights the ideological significance of the direct linkage of two members of the house of Nemanjic, both the father Stefan and his son Radoslav, to the Angeloi dynasty. The other 'Byzantinisms' of King Radoslav when he became sole ruler understandably rested upon the described foundation. The coins from his time, which, ostensibly, were produced in the Salonika mint of the Epirotic monarchs, were similar to the coins of the house of Angeloi and were marked with the surname Doukas, which also appears in the well known Greek signature on a document from the end of his reign. In historical terms, all of this becomes even more striking because during the subsequent reigns of the other sons of Stefan the First Crowned - Vladislav and Uros I - they distanced themselves entirely from this policy.

Abstract:
This study explores the underlying reasons behind the construction and topographical location of the Viking Age ring fortress, Borgring and the impact it had on the society on a regional scale. A key question is whether this manifestation of power is also expressing a disruption of the existing power structure in the region. The evidence from Borgring will be compared to the other four ring fortresses as well as other fortifications and large structures of the Viking Age in Denmark. In the end we will propose a new theory explaining the Viking Age ring fortresses along with other monumental structures dated to the reign of King Harald Bluetooth (c. AD 958 – AD 986/987) represent a manifestation of a new order of society instigated by the conversion of the King in AD 963. The shape, the size and the positioning of the structures in the landscape were premeditated to impress both locals and travellers following important roads throughout the realm and to remind them of the King´s presence and his power based on a new ideology.

Abstract:
Majapahit Kingdom is one of the largest Kingdom in the archipelago that has a very wide territory even to Madagascar. The heyday of Majapahit kingdom during the leadership of King Hayam Wuruk, who is the best king to form Majapahit prosper and experience a very glorious period. This can not be separated servis from Mahapatih Gajah Mada who pronounces his famous oath by the name of oath Amukti Palapa. Where the oath of Amukti Palapa reads: Seagrass huwus lost Nusantara isun amukti palapa, seagrass loses ring desert, ring seran, Tanjung Pura, ring Haru, ring Pahang, Dompo, ring Bali, Sunda, Palembang, Tumasik, samana isun amukti palapa. Relying on a good military and political strategy, Mahapatih Gajah Mada is able to apply the Amukti Palapanya oath, making it the most respected Patih in the Majapahit Kingdom as well as in other regions. Until the end of Mahapatih Gajah Madas involvement in Bubat war caused his name to diminish his kharisman in Majapahit environment. Finally Mahapatih Gajah Mada reached Moksa and left the Majapahit Glory. Keywords: Gajah Mada, Archipelago, Majapahit

Abstract:
The step-topped, free-standing square monument called in modern literature the Broken Obelisk was found by Hormuzd Rassam at Nineveh, near the Ishtar temple on the mound of Kuyunjik. It is the earliest monument of this kind, and it differs in its pictorial rendering from the later, so-called Assyrian obelisks. Whereas the succeeding examples display reliefs on their four sides, creating consecutive narratives, the Broken Obelisk exhibits a single, motionless relief on its front, the subject of the present paper (Börker-Klähn 1982, Nos. 132, 138–45, 152; Bär 1996, 57-68, 88–99, 101–5, 148–65).My aim here is to shed light on the motif of the king holding prisoners of war by means of lead ropes and to examine the bearing of this motif on the status of the royal image in pictorial renderings. According to different interpretations of the scene, the king holds a ring and rod (Börker-Klähn 1982, 178, No. 131 with earlier bibliography), or a ceremonial mace (Russell 2003, 4) as well as lead rope(s) with which he binds prisoners of war standing in front of him (e.g. Pritchard 1969, 300, No. 440; Strommenger 1964, 437, PI. 188, bottom; Börker-Klähn 1982, 178; Collon 1995, 117; Russell 2003, 4). My initial interest in the iconography of the Broken Obelisk was aroused by the fact that on it the so-called ring and rod symbols of kingship granted by the gods, are held by the king, whereas usually they are held by a deity in compositions conveying the very act of the divine giving (Hallo 2005, 150–1, 161; Suter 2000, 6–7; Ornan 2005, 12).

In 1482, the episcopal ring of St. Zenobius, patron of the Florentine see, was sent from Florence to France in the hope that it would cure the ailing King Louis XI. This secondary relic belonged to the Girolami, a banking and mercantile family that claimed to be related to the saint. The present study examines the use of St. Zenobius’ ring as a means of international and local diplomatic exchange. In addition, it traces the history of the Girolami's patronage of St. Zenobius’ cult and relics, places it within the context of contemporary devotional practices, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the patronage of privately-owned relics in Renaissance

Abstract:
The paper discusses two anecdotes concerning the Hungarian court. The first anecdote is transmitted by Le Vite of Giorgio Vasari on Visino, a Florentine painter, and his adventure in the court of Louis II. The big-mouth Florentine almost lost his life because the Hungarian aristocrats misunderstood his communicating of cultural preferences for Tuscany in comaprison to Buda court. The other text is a short narrative taken from the Le Sei Giornate of Sebastiano Erizzo. Erizzo's story tells about King John Szapolyai and one of his servants who stole a precious ring from his master. The servant accuses a painter of the sin and almost makes him killed for something the painter did not commit. The King, conscious about his servant's deed frees the painter and punishes the servant by sending him away from his service and giving him the same ring the servant risked his own position and another person's life for. My analysis discusses the possible historical and cultural background of the two stories. It also calls attention to the psychological effects they may have caused in their contemporary readers and the different reading strategies we approach them after the Enlightment of European culture.

Abstract:
A fundamental aspect of ancient Egyptian history remains unresolved: chronology. Egyptologists (and researchers in related fields that synchronize their studies with Egypt) currently rely on a variety of insufficiently precise methodologies (king lists, radiocarbon dating, etc.) from which to derive seemingly “absolute” dates. The need for genuine precision has been recognized for a century, as has the potential solution: dendrochronology. This manuscript presents a case for further progress toward the construction of a tree-ring chronology for ancient Egypt.

Abstract:
In an interview with Hy Bender, Neil Gaiman states, â We have the right, and the obligation, to tell old stories in our own ways, because they are our stories.â While fantasy stands apart from other types of fiction, it still provides a particular kind of commentary on the culture/time it is being created in, often by toying with older themes and conventions. Stories of the quest for kingship tend to fall by the wayside in favor of the â unlikely heroâ tale. While the kingâ s story is not always vastly different from that of the hero, there are some key points that need to be taken into consideration. Unlike many heroes, especially in the modern sense, kings (whether recognized at first or not) are born for the duty they must eventually fulfill. A hero may be unaware of the problem at first or later reluctant to engage it; more often than not in tales of kingship there is a deep awareness of the problem and the knowledge of their potential in solving it. There is always a sense of inherent purpose and destiny: they must undertake quests in order to legitimize themselves and their power â their right to rule. These stories bear a similar structure and shared themes that can be found in medieval sources as well as earlier myths. Tales of kingship in modern fiction, specifically in the work of Neil Gaiman (The Sandman) and George R. R. Martin (A Game of Thrones), are similar to the medieval models, as kingship and the requirements of kingship were popular themes in medieval texts, including Beowulf and King Horn. The role of the king in epic tales varies from hero to villain, at times even occupying both roles depending on the story. In the tales explored herein and in much of the medieval source material that inspired the fantasy tradition, the king also takes on the role of healer. The interwoven plots of George R. R. Martinâ s A Song of Fire and Ice series revolve around the struggle for the rightful rule over seven kingdoms, and while the protagonist in The Sandman is in many ways vastly different from Tolkienâ s Aragorn, the character still exists with a sense of purpose, responsibility, and duty; a regal bearing that does not necessarily occur in the majority of typical heroes. The influence of Tolkienâ s work both as a scholar and an author is apparent in Gaimanâ s use of mythology and Martinâ s style of world creation; both authors have admitted their creative debt to and continuing admiration of Tolkienâ s style of fantasy. It is impossible to discuss modern fantasy without acknowledging Tolkien as an influence to these two more recent authors. This paper will discuss The Lord of the Rings as a bridge between modern fantasy and medieval/mythological sources. In each of these modern fantasy tales of kingship, healing and reunion become major themes, tied into the right/duty of a ruler. The patterns established by medieval tales are used by modern authors to create fantasy kings, giving their narratives legitimacy that may have been difficult to establish without these patterns and links back to the medieval tradition.

Abstract:

King-Kopetzkys syndrom (KKS) beskrivs som när en person upplever svårigheter med att uppfatta tal, speciellt i bullriga miljöer, men har normala tontrösklar. Orsaken till syndromet är fortfarande oviss och detta gör att de som jobbar inom hörselvården ställs inför ett val då de möter dessa patienter. Patienten kan antingen avfärdas då denne anses höra normalt, eller så tas problemet på allvar och vidare utredning utförs.

Genom att göra en systematisk litteraturstudie belyses och förklaras syndromet och syftet har varit att göra en sammanställning och ge en översikt över KKS utifrån de vetenskapliga artiklar som berör ämnet. Målet med detta arbete är att öka förståelsen för KKS.

Resultatet pekar på att det är fler kvinnor än män som drabbas och att medelåldern för de med syndromet är ganska låg, runt 32 år. Det finns många olika teorier till orsaken och ingen är i dagsläget mer rätt än den andra. Detsamma gäller mätningar som använts för att försöka utreda syndromet, här framkommer många olika förslag på vägen till diagnostisering. Slutsatsen som dras är att mer forskning kring ämnet är nödvändigt för att få en förklaring och ett tillvägagångssätt för diagnostisering av syndromet.

Abstract:
Estudos sobre a fenologia e anatomia do lenho de árvores de espécies tropicais revelam um desenvolvimento e crescimento cíclicos, relacionados com as condições climáticas (temperatura e precipitação) e de sítio (competição, luz, armazenamento de água no solo, etc.). A sensibilidade a estes fatores resulta, para as árvores de algumas espécies, na sazonalidade da atividade cambial e na formação de anéis de crescimento anuais. Essa característica possibilita a determinação da idade, da taxa de crescimento em diâmetro do tronco e da reconstrução de eventos climáticos, bem como na aplicação de técnicas de manejo florestal sustentável. No presente trabalho, foram aplicadas as técnicas de dendrocronologia, em árvores de mogno, de duas populações na floresta tropical Amazônica do Peru, visando a (i) caracterização da estrutura macro e microscópica do lenho e dos anéis de crescimento, (ii) comprovação da anualidade da formação dos anéis de crescimento e determinação da idade das árvores, (iii) avaliação da biodeterioração do lenho das árvores, (iv) aplicação da densitometria de raios X no estudo do lenho e dos anéis de crescimento e (v) aplicação dos anéis de crescimento em dendroclimatologia e dendroecologia. Foram selecionadas 20 árvores de mogno em duas populações localizadas no Departamento de Madre de Dios, Peru e extraídas amostras radiais do seu lenho, com sonda de Pressler. Injúrias no tronco de árvores de mogno foram realizadas em outubro/2006 e analisadas as cicatrizes no lenho em outubro/2007, relacionando-as com a formação dos anéis de crescimento. Foi caracterizada a estrutura anatômica do lenho e dos anéis de crescimento, determinando-se o seu número, largura e aplicadas técnicas de dendrocronologia. Os anéis de crescimento foram sincronizados, utilizando os programas COFECHA, ARSTAN e RESPO, determinando-se a relação da sua largura com as variáveis climáticas e a idade das árvores. A podridão interna do lenho das árvores foi avaliada determinando-se o diâmetro do oco interno do lenho do tronco. A variação radial da densidade aparente do lenho foi determinada pela densitometria de raios X. Anéis de crescimento delimitados pelo parênquima axial marginal são comprovadamente anuais e possibilitaram a determinação da idade das árvores de mogno (80-122 anos) e a construção de cronologias. A variável climática determinante para o maior crescimento em diâmetro do tronco das árvores foi a precipitação dos meses prévios, do início e do final da estação chuvosa (junho-agosto, dezembro e março) indicando o seu potencial para as reconstruções climáticas. Os perfis radiais de densidade aparente do lenho, obtidos por densitometria de raios X, possibilitaram a identificação do limite exato dos anéis de crescimento, pelos valores mínimos de densidade da região do parênquima marginal. A análise de regressão entre a largura dos anéis obtida pela mesa de medição e por densitometria de raios X apresentou valor de r2=0.92, mostrando a potencialidade dos raios X como ferramenta para estudos de dendrocronologia. O oco do lenho do tronco foi observado em 20% das árvores de mogno, com DAP acima de 62 cm.
Studies in phenology and wood anatomy show a cyclical development and growth related to climatic conditions (temperature and rainfall) and site characteristics (competence, light, water storage in the soil, etc.), the sensibility to these factors results, for some tree species, in seasonality of cambium activity and formation of annual tree-rings. This characteristic enables to estimate age, growth rate in trunk diameter and reconstruction of climatic events, as well as in application of techniques of sustainable forest management. In this study, dendrochronological techniques were applied in mahogany trees from two populations in the Amazon rainforest of Peru, with the aim of (i) characterization of macroscopic and microscopic wood structure and the tree rings, (ii) checking the annual formation of tree rings and determining tree age, (iii) evaluation of the biodeterioration in wood of trees (hollow), (iv) application the X-ray densitometry in the study of wood and tree rings and (v) application the tree rings in dendroclimatology and dendroecology. Twenty mahogany trees were selected in two populations located in the department of Madre de Dios, Peru and removed radial samples from the trunk, with increment corer (Pressler). In October, 2006 injuries in the trunk of mahogany trees were carried out and in October 2007, the scars were analyzed, associating them to the formation of the tree rings. Wood and tree rings anatomic structure was characterized determining its number, width and dendrochronology techniques applied. Tree rings have been synchronized, using COFECHA, ARSTAN and RESPO programs, determining the relation between the width with the climatic variables and the age of trees. The internal wood decay was evaluated by providing the internal diameter of hollow in the trunk. The radial variation of the apparent wood density was determined by the X ray densitometry. Tree rings delimited by a marginal axial parenchyma bands are annual and enable to determine the age of mahogany trees (80-122 years) and the construction of chronologies. The climatic determinant variable for the greatest growth in diameter of the trunk of trees was the rainfall in the previous months, beginning and final of the rainy season (June - August, December and March) indicating its potential for climatic reconstructions. The radials profiles of apparent density of wood, obtained for X ray densitometry, making possible identification of the exact limit of growth rings for minimal values of density in the region of marginal parenchyma. The regression analysis between ring width measured with Velmex (0,001) table and for X ray was r2=0.92, showing the potential of X rays as tool for dendrochronological studies. Decay in the trunk was observed in 20 % of trees over 62 cm of DBH.

Abstract:
Diploma thesis of was preceded by a specialized studio focused on the development of urban-architectural design in the area of "Vsetín - Ohrada". The newly created objects have the a task of transform the whole territory, which nowadays deteriorate. The solved area is separated by the highest industrial zone from the edge of the city and after the connection to the urban area. The whole sports complex is conceived as an independent urban complex, mainly linked to the surrounding nature. These are cycle paths that are designed for the entire area. The center is designed for the needs of the population of Vsetín and its catchment areas. Sports, recreational options for all ages. The grassy wall divides the river from the city and reflects the calm zone by the river, and at the same time divides large flat areas. In addition to sports, the area offers wellness, gastro and meeting places. The advantage of this place is cycling trail parallel to the beautiful nature. Moreover, the grassy wall is used to hide service roads and parking spaces. This ensures excellent transport accessibility and supply, but does not interfere with the sports complex. Wall created from excavations of single buildings and demolition works of the original stadium will achieve a safe transition from one sports ground to another, creating a natural observation post and incorporating buildings and sports facilities to become part of the wall and form a single unit. By embedding buildings in the wall, the buildings visually diminish. The embedded sports ground is bounded on two sides by a rampart and the third by a staircase. It can be used as a grandstand, or to enter the ridge of the dike. This minimizes the need for unsightly fencing on each pitch. With the new concept we will meet the requirements of visitors in the given locality and, above all, the attractiveness of the whole area will be increased.

Abstract:
This study investigates the representation of narrative space in the novel and the film of The Return of the King. As the two representations belong to two different mediums, the theories on narrative space in the novel and in the film are examined in order to distinguish between their modes of representation of space. In essence, the theory utilised for the spatial analysis focuses on the content, function and symbolic meaning within spaces, as created by the description of objects, the repetition and accumulation of spatial information, as well as the movement of characters within spaces and the interaction between characters and different spaces. This spatial interaction relates to the events, representations of time and the role of the narrator within the different dimensions of narrated space, that is, concrete and abstract space. The three most significant spaces within the novel and the film, namely Minas Tirith, Mount Doom and Hobbiton form the basis of the analysis, which focuses on the narrative spaces as they are represented. From this study, it becomes clear that there are different levels of meaning embodied within a space: the physical and geographical space, the social space of interaction and the abstract, symbolic space. The significant spaces and their meanings in the novel have been subjected to filmic transformation. Essentially, the spaces in both the novel and the film display the fact that space ultimately influences those events and people who interact with it and vice versa. These spaces thus embody specific meanings, which contribute towards the undertaken journey represented in Tolkien's fantastical, imaginative world.

Abstract:
SFD (short for squeeze film damper) is a kind of passive vibration isolator widely used in rotor supporting structures of aero-engines for stabilization and vibration control. However, the conventional SFDs are highly nonlinear in terms of damping coefficient, which lead to complex response such as bitable state. In this paper, numerical simulations are carried out to investigate a new kind of SFD, elastic ring squeeze film damper (ERSFD). The elastic ring is modeled by FEM and the film is analyzed by CFD, the orifices on the ring is also included. An FSI approach is introduced to account for the influence of elastic ring’s deformation on oil film thickness. The Zwart-Gerber-Belamri model is included to account for air ingestion and cavitation in the damper land. The characteristics such as pressure distribution, oil film force and the deformation of the ring are obtained and compared with the results without FSI to reveal the self-adaptive mechanism of film thickness. The force coefficients for ERSFD are derived and gained by the FFT method. The dynamic coefficients for ERSFD versus whirl frequency are obtained and compared with corresponding air volume fraction.

Abstract:
This research explores parametric instabilities of the PGT driveline system and a stability-based method for ring gear rim thickness design. Parametric excitation of a planetary gear transmission (PGT) driveline system arises from two sources: 1) gear mesh stiffness variation, 2) Interaction between moving planets, flexible ring gear and boundary struts. Many researchers have studied the parametric instability of planetary gear transmissions due to gear mesh stiffness variation, however, the effect of interaction between moving planets, flexible ring and discrete boundary struts on parametric instabilities has not been fully studied before. Especially, for sufficiently thin ring gears, this kind of effect becomes even more significant. To illustrate the novel PGT rim design proposal, firstly, a structural dynamics model of a complete PGT driveline system with elastic ring gear supported by discrete boundary struts is established. Secondly, by applying Floquet method, the parametric instability behavior due to the second parametric excitation source is fully investigated. Lastly, the design guidelines for planetary gear transmission ring gear rim thickness are proposed based on system stability from a dynamical viewpoint. The analysis and results provide new and important insights into dynamics and design of lightweight planetary gear transmission ring gear rim.

Full text
Abstract:
Because of the continuous quests for high performance and compact structure of automobile and machine in recent years, rolling bearings are required to work under harder conditions of high speed and heavy load than before. The applications of hard condition may lead to a greater likelihood of happening of bearing malfunctions such as flaking, wear, creep, fracture etc. In this paper, the phenomenon called outer ring creep occurring in bearings subject to non-rotating load is discussed. Outer ring creep is referred to that bearing outer ring rotates relatively to the housing in certain applications. Outer ring creep may result in such problems as unusual noise and vibration and may cause wear of housing and outer ring. If abrasive particles caused by wear of the ring and housing enter the raceway, the bearing may be damaged and destroyed. Conventionally, the problem of outer ring creep was considered to be a result of rotating bearing load. However, even if the direction of radial load remained relatively unchanged, outer ring creep is observed in many cases. The generation mechanism of this kind of outer ring creep has not yet been made clear till now. With FEM simulation and test verification, we analyzed the phenomenon of outer ring creep under non-rotating load. We concluded that outer ring creep under non-rotating load is a result of localized strain and rippling deformation caused by rolling elements. In this paper, only outer ring creep is discussed below, but the similar result can be obtained for inner ring creep.

Abstract:
Cycling can cause accelerated deterioration in generator rotors. EPRI (Electric Power Research Institute) states that “Cyclic operation can result in an increase in forced outage rates, higher operation and maintenance (O&M) costs, and further wear and tear on components…” Most industry references do not differentiate between speed cycling and load cycling. Speed cycling is the worst kind of cycling, leading to cracking and fatigue failure of many generator rotor components. The outline of the paper will include the following major topics: • Definition of Cycling • Focus on Speed Cycling versus Load Cycling/Load Following • Low Cycle versus High Cycle Fatigue - • Fatigue progresses to cracking; cracking to failure, failure to forced outages, schedule delays, additional costs • Key Generator Rotor Components Affected by Low Cycle Fatigue • Rotor Forging Shaft including the rotor bore, tooth tops, snap ring groove cracking • Rotor Field Winding including pole crossovers, J-straps/terminal studs, bore copper, conductor end turns • Support Components including slot wedges, retaining rings • Preventative Action by Investigation and NDE/DE • Conclusions and Recommendations.

Abstract:
The present paper brings together theoretical predictions and experimental results, comparing crushing tests results as well as carcass wet collapse tests. The theoretical models are of two kinds: (i) numerical (FE) and (ii) analytical. The first kind is a restricted 3D version of a finite element model. The second kind is based on classic assumptions of equivalent ring behavior. Discussion is made on the real yield stress value to be adopted, as well as on the pertinence of geometric hypotheses. Sensitivity analyses, regarding ovalization and helical pitch are also presented.

Abstract:
Energy and environment are of major concern in internal combustion engine component design. The piston ring-cylinder liner (PRCL) contact plays an essential part in design and is highlighted in this study. In fact, the rings ensure the sealing property, reducing the environmental impact by avoiding lubricant contamination (blow-by) and lubricant consumption. Unfortunately, when sealing, the rings generate between 11 to 24% of the friction losses in an internal combustion engine [1], thus reducing the energy efficiency of the engine. The cylinder liner surface features a special micro-geometry, a classical one is the cross-hatching pattern, obtained by honing. This texturing acts as a micro-bearing, oil reservoir and debris trap. Understanding the influence of texture parameters as groove depth and width or angle, will allow tribological improvements of the PRCL contact. The 2D transient Reynolds equation has to be solved for this kind of surface. The statistical method using the Patir and Cheng [2] flow factors is widely used. This approach lumps the different components of the surface (grooves and plateaux) and does not consider the roughness directionality. Methods decoupling both components, like the homogenization method [3] are also used. Another alternative is to use a deterministic model on measured surfaces, but this is a “hugely” expensive approach. Multigrid methods [4] are used to drastically reduce the calculational cost. The aim of the current study is to facilitate the understanding of measured surface calculations. Hence, analytical surfaces are used. They allow a flexible handling of the cross-hatching parameters. The plateaux are perfectly smooth and the grooves are sinusoidally shaped. The top ring is modelled using a parabolic profile. Periodic boundary conditions are used in the orthoradial direction and zero pressure conditions (Dirichlet) in the axial direction. To investigate the effect of different parameters, various imposed film thicknesses are applied and the mean load carrying capacity (LCC) over time is calculated. When representing the LCC corresponding to each parameter compared to the smooth LCC, as a function of the logarithm of the minimum film thickness, the curves are quite linear for small values of the film thickness and then for larger values they converge to 1.

Abstract:
Abstract Reciprocating seals are vital components in hydraulic systems. As a kind of reciprocating seal, the glyd-ring is commonly used as a piston seal. For the sealing characteristics of aircraft glyd-ring under severe working conditions, systematic research and experimental verification are not sufficient. The liquid-solid coupling model based on mixed lubrication theory is established in order to analyze the characteristics of the glyd-ring seal in the cylinder piston. The contact stress distribution on the glyd-ring under different fluid pressures or temperatures is discussed through finite element analysis. The mechanical analysis of solids and fluids are carried out separately, and the thickness of the fluid film is continuously updated until the results of the deformation analysis converged. According to the calculation results obtained by this model, three characteristics of the glyd-ring seal (static contact pressure, film thickness, friction force) are discussed. As the fluid pressure rises, the contact pressure in the sealing area increases by a rate which is greater than that of the corresponding fluid pressure, the seal length is shortened, the fluid film thickness is reduced, and the frictional force gradually increases, this force increase is proved by test data. As the temperature rises, the contact pressure in the seal area (near the O-ring) increases by a rate which is greater than that of the corresponding fluid pressure, the seal length increases, the oil film thickness decreases, and the frictional force increases significantly.

Full text
Abstract:
The main recommendations of the Panel report can be summarised as follows: The Overall Picture: more needs to be understood about the process of acculturation of indigenous communities; about the Atlantic, Breton strand of Neolithisation; about the ‘how and why’ of the spread of Grooved Ware use and its associated practices and traditions; and about reactions to Continental Beaker novelties which appeared from the 25th century. The Detailed Picture: Our understanding of developments in different parts of Scotland is very uneven, with Shetland and the north-west mainland being in particular need of targeted research. Also, here and elsewhere in Scotland, the chronology of developments needs to be clarified, especially as regards developments in the Hebrides. Lifeways and Lifestyles: Research needs to be directed towards filling the substantial gaps in our understanding of: i) subsistence strategies; ii) landscape use (including issues of population size and distribution); iii) environmental change and its consequences – and in particular issues of sea level rise, peat formation and woodland regeneration; and iv) the nature and organisation of the places where people lived; and to track changes over time in all of these. Material Culture and Use of Resources: In addition to fine-tuning our characterisation of material culture and resource use (and its changes over the course of the Neolithic), we need to apply a wider range of analytical approaches in order to discover more about manufacture and use.Some basic questions still need to be addressed (e.g. the chronology of felsite use in Shetland; what kind of pottery was in use, c 3000–2500, in areas where Grooved Ware was not used, etc.) and are outlined in the relevant section of the document. Our knowledge of organic artefacts is very limited, so research in waterlogged contexts is desirable. Identity, Society, Belief Systems: Basic questions about the organisation of society need to be addressed: are we dealing with communities that started out as egalitarian, but (in some regions) became socially differentiated? Can we identify acculturated indigenous people? How much mobility, and what kind of mobility, was there at different times during the Neolithic? And our chronology of certain monument types and key sites (including the Ring of Brodgar, despite its recent excavation) requires to be clarified, especially since we now know that certain types of monument (including Clava cairns) were not built during the Neolithic. The way in which certain types of site (e.g. large palisaded enclosures) were used remains to be clarified. Research and methodological issues: There is still much ignorance of the results of past and current research, so more effective means of dissemination are required. Basic inventory information (e.g. the Scottish Human Remains Database) needs to be compiled, and Canmore and museum database information needs to be updated and expanded – and, where not already available online, placed online, preferably with a Scottish Neolithic e-hub that directs the enquirer to all the available sources of information. The Historic Scotland on-line radiocarbon date inventory needs to be resurrected and kept up to date. Under-used resources, including the rich aerial photography archive in the NMRS, need to have their potential fully exploited. Multi-disciplinary, collaborative research (and the application of GIS modelling to spatial data in order to process the results) is vital if we are to escape from the current ‘silo’ approach and address key research questions from a range of perspectives; and awareness of relevant research outside Scotland is essential if we are to avoid reinventing the wheel. Our perspective needs to encompass multi-scale approaches, so that ScARF Neolithic Panel Report iv developments within Scotland can be understood at a local, regional and wider level. Most importantly, the right questions need to be framed, and the right research strategies need to be developed, in order to extract the maximum amount of information about the Scottish Neolithic.
