Abstract:
In this paper, I outline some aspects of what I describe as a "discursive sensibility." Drawing from discourse theory and research, I consider problem gambling in terms of this sensibility: an appreciation for and flexibility in working with differences in how language is used in describing and addressing gambling. I look specifically at how this discursive sensibility can be reflected in particular approaches to practice and research.

Abstract:
This article makes a positive case for an ethnographic sensibility in political theory. Drawing on published ethnographies and original fieldwork, it argues that an ethnographic sensibility can contribute to normative reflection in five distinct ways. It can help uncover the nature of situated normative demands (epistemic argument); diagnose obstacles encountered when responding to these demands (diagnostic argument); evaluate practices and institutions against a given set of values (evaluative argument); probe, question and refine our understanding of values (valuational argument); and uncover underlying social ontologies (ontological argument). The contribution of ethnography to normative theory is distinguished from that of other forms of empirical research, and the dangers of perspectival absorption, bias and particularism are addressed.

Abstract:
In this thesis I present and defend an interpretation of Kant’s theory of experience as it stands from the viewpoint of his empirical realism. My central contention is that Kant’s is a conception of everyday experience, a kind of immediate phenomenological awareness as of empirical objects, and although he takes this to be representational, it cannot itself amount to empirical knowledge because it can be non-veridical, because in such experience it is possible to misrepresent the world. I outline my view in an extended introduction. In Part I I offer a novel interpretation of Kant’s doctrine of sensibility and sensation. Utilizing a data-processor schematic as an explanatory framework, I give an account of how outer sense, as a collection of sensory capacities, is causally affected by empirical objects to produce bodily state sensations that naturally encode information about those objects. This information is then processed through inner sense to present to the understanding a manifold of mental state sensations that similarly encode information. I also give accounts of how the reproductive imagination operates in hallucination to produce sensible manifolds in lieu of current causal affection, and of the restricted role that consciousness plays at this low level of cognitive function. In Part II I turn to the role of the understanding in experience. I offer a two-stage model of conceptual synthesis and explain how Kant’s theory of experience is a unique blend of conceptualist and non-conceptualist elements. I show that it explains how our experience can provide us with reasons for belief while at the same time accounting for the fact that experience is what anchors us to the world. Finally, I return to non-veridical experience. I confront recent naïve realist readings of Kant and argue that, for Kant, the possibility of non-veridicality is built into the very nature of the human mind and the way it relates to the world.

Abstract:
Money factors into the lives of all of Jane Austen’s heroines and, in many of her novels, the heroines struggle on the marriage market. Austen concludes every one of her novels with the marriage of the heroine and, while Austen made the choice to become a writer instead of marrying, she is consequently very mindful of what marriage means for each of her heroines and who they ultimately choose for a husband. Given that economics is the social science concerned with how individuals and institutions make optimal choices under conditions of scarcity, knowledge of some of the basic concepts in economics and an understanding of the economic theory behind how people make choices can enhance readings of Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice. Through a survey of some of the existing economic literature on marriage, I demonstrate how one might apply economic theory to these two novels. Subsequently, I explore how there are limits on how far the economics of marriage can be extended to analyze Austen’s novels, but ultimately conclude that the theory presented nevertheless helps explain how many of the characters choose their future partner.

This sense theory is presented and maintained in the course of the work, so that we can include it in the process towards knowledge, which will be another important point in our investigation. We must, at a first moment, show the authenticity of the sensory theory developed in what we will call the Secret Doctrine, so that later, in the final chapter, we fit such theory into the process toward knowledge. By properly developing these two points, we will conclude that the sensibility can not be discarded in the cognitive process necessary to approach the truth. For this, we will dialogue directly with the work in question to emphasize the necessary aspects of the sense theory of the Secret Doctrine in order to show that it’s complexity is not compatible with the thinking of the nominee thinkers. Detailed aspects, such as slow movements as powers of becoming, rapid movements as pair-formers, sensation quality, momentaneity of sensation, unrepeatability and particularity evident in each of them will be studied in order to highlight the complexity presented by Plato when describing nature of sensitivity. Having shown such complexity, we shall set out for the appointee's own thinkers, namely Protagoras, Heraclitus and Parmenides, and the fragments of his writings which have come down to us, and we shall evaluate the content therein to see if there were the aspects presented by Plato when he explained the functionality of sensible things. Our intention in this part of the research will be to present that there was no such complex investigation of perception and knowledge in the pre-socratics. With this, we will be ready to complete the first stage of the research, granting the sense theory of the Secret Doctrine to Plato himself. Having achieved this success, the research will turn to the phases of the process toward knowledge, examining in it the function of aisthesis. Aisthesis will have refined and become two distinct things in the process, namely, pure sensation and perception, from which the second is always accompanied by discourse and consequently judgment, and this is due to the presence of psyché in this activity. The psyché will be shown in the Theaetetus present in the most primitive sensations and also responsible for the highest reasonings, having begun these calculations and analyzes through the senses, progressing in such a way as to obtain simple results such as whiteness, heat, and also obtaining more complex results Like the beautiful, the different, the equal, until the reaching of entity, which is common to everything and thus will approach the truth. We will suggest a way of knowing that it is not the Forms, given the absence of these in the work, and also based on Franco Trabattoni, which offers us a different view on the possibility of there being three types of knowledge in Plato's thinking and one of them is exactly a process that begins with sensations, passes through the opinion and results in something especially articulated by the psyché. We will evaluate the condition of possibility of this type of knowledge and we will reach a conclusion that will bring us the following situation: man, not being able to discard all his cognitive capacities, and this includes the sensations, will be able to know not infallible knowledge, but what will come closest to it. The sensations, as detailed in the Theaetetus, and thought are together, indispensable tools for knowing human.<br>A presente pesquisa tem como principais objetivos mostrar que há uma teoria sensista desenvolvida por Platão a partir do que ele considerou equivocado nas teses de pensadores anteriores como Protágoras e Heráclito, que eram consideradas enquanto verdades, trazendo no Teeteto uma avaliação detalhada sobre aspectos da sensibilidade e do conhecimento. Essa teoria sensista é apresentada e mantida no decorrer da obra, de maneira que podemos inclui-la no processo em direção ao saber, que será outro ponto importante na nossa investigação. Temos que, em um momento primeiro, mostrar a autenticidade da teoria sensista desenvolvida no que chamaremos de Doutrina Secreta, para que posteriormente, no capítulo final, encaixemos tal teoria no processo em direção ao saber. Desenvolvendo devidamente esses dois pontos, concluiremos que a sensibilidade não pode ser descartada no processo cognitivo necessário para se aproximar da verdade. Para isso, iremos dialogar diretamente com a obra em questão para salientarmos os devidos aspectos da teoria sensista da Doutrina Secreta a fim de mostrar que a complexidade ali existente não é compatível com o pensamento dos pensadores de nomeada. Aspectos detalhados, tais como os movimentos lentos como potências do vir a ser, movimentos rápidos como formadores do par sensação qualidade, momentaneidade da sensação, irrepetibilidade e particularidade evidentes em cada uma delas serão estudados de maneira a destacar a complexidade apresentada por Platão quando descrevia a natureza da sensibilidade. Tendo sido mostrada tal complexidade, partiremos para os próprios pensadores de nomeada, a saber, Protágoras, Heráclito e Parmênides e os fragmentos de seus escritos que chegaram até nós, e avaliaremos o conteúdo neles inseridos para verificar se havia ali os aspectos apresentados por Platão quando este explicava a funcionalidade das coisas sensíveis. Nosso intuito nessa parte da pesquisa será mostrar que não havia nos pré-socráticos, investigação tão complexa sobre a percepção e o saber. Com isso, estaremos prontos a concluir a primeira etapa da pesquisa, concedendo a teoria sensista da Doutrina Secreta ao próprio Platão. Tendo obtido esse êxito, a pesquisa se voltará para as fases do processo em direção ao saber, examinando nele a função da aisthesis. Aisthesis terá se refinado e se tornará duas coisas distintas no processo, a saber, sensação pura e percepção, a partir da qual a segunda está sempre acompanhada de discurso e, consequentemente, julgamento, e isso se dá devido a presença da psyché nessa atividade. A psyché se mostrará no Teeteto presente nas mais primitivas sensações e também responsável pelos mais elevados raciocínios, tendo começado esses cálculos e análises por meio dos sentidos, progredindo de maneira a obter resultados simples como a brancura, o calor, e também obtendo resultados mais complexos como o belo, o diferente, o igual, até que se chegue a entidade, que é comum a tudo e assim se aproximará da verdade. Iremos sugerir uma forma de saber que não é o das Formas, dado a ausência destas na obra, e também nos baseando em Franco Trabattoni, que nos oferece uma visão diferenciada sobre a possibilidade de haver três tipos de conhecimento no pensamento de Platão e um deles se trata exatamente de um processo que começa nas sensações, passa pela opinião e resulta em algo especialmente articulado pela psyché. Avaliaremos a condição de possibilidade desse tipo de conhecimento e chegaremos a uma conclusão que nos trará a seguinte situação: o homem, não podendo se desfazer de todas as suas capacidades cognitivas, e isso inclui as sensações, estará apto a conhecer não o infalível saber, mas aquilo que mais se aproximará dele. As sensações, conforme detalhada no Teeteto, e o pensamento são juntos, ferramentas indispensáveis para conhecer humano.

Abstract:
Trans Cinema and its Exit Scapes offers a critical and creative intervention into cultural representations of gendered body dissidence in contemporary film. The study argues for the possibility of finding spaces of “disidentification”, so-called “exit scapes” within the films. Exit scapes disrupt the dominant cinematic regime set up for the trans character, which ties them into stories of discrimination, humiliation and violence. In Trans Cinema, for instance films such as Hedwig and the Angry Inch (2001), Transamerica (2005), Romeos (2011) and Laurence Anyways (2012), scenes of singing, dancing and dreaming allow a different form of engagement with the films. As argued here, they allow a critical re-reading and an affirmative re-imagining of trans embodiment. The aim of this study is to investigate the utopian and hopeful potential within Trans Cinema from a critical transfeminist perspective. While focusing in particular on trans entrants as “spectators” or readers, this study draws on the work of a wide range of feminist and cultural scholars, such as Sara Ahmed, Susan Stryker, José Esteban Muñoz, Trinh T. Minh-Ha, Karen Barad and Donna Haraway. The thesis etches out cinematic spatiotemporalities that unfold possibilities of utopian worlding and trans becoming through a set of conceptual innovations. By utilising a critical approach to audio-visuality and feminist film theory, the thesis re-conceptualises haptic spectatorship theory and its critique in western modernist ocularcentricism through a set of conceptual innovations. The methodological tools developed in this thesis, such as the “entrant”, the “exit scape” and “sensible cinematic intra-activity”, feature here as a multisensorial methodology for transdisciplinary transgender studies and feminist film theory as well as visual culture at large.<br>Trans Cinema and its Exit Scapes är en kritisk och kreativ intervention med fokus på kulturella representationer av kroppar som bryter mot en könsbinär ordning i samtida film. Studien argumenterar för möjligheten att hitta utrymmen för “disidentification”, så kallade “exit scapes” inom filmerna. Exit scapes stör den dominanta filmiska ordning som skapats för transkaraktären, en ordning som är förbunden med berättelser om diskriminering, förödmjukelse och våld. Inom Trans Cinema, i filmer som exempelvis Hedwig and the Angry Inch (2001), Transamerica (2005), Romeos (2011) and Laurence Anyways (2012), öppnar scener med sång, dans och drömmar upp för andra former av engagemang med filmerna. Som det argumenteras för i avhandlingen tillåter dessa ett kritiskt omformulerande av, och ett nytt affirmativt sätt att föreställa sig, transkroppslighet. Syftet med den här studien är att undersöka den utopiska och hoppfulla potential som finns inom transfilm utifrån ett kritiskt transfeministiskt perspektiv. Även om studien främst riktar sig till trans entrants som “åskådare” eller läsare, så har den en bred teoretisk bas hämtad från verk av en lång rad feministiska forskare inom kulturfältet, såsom Sara Ahmed, Susan Stryker, José Esteban Muñoz, Trinh T. Minh-Ha, Karen Barad och Donna Haraway. Denna avhandling skissar filmiska spatiotemporaliteter, vilka öppnar för möjligheter av utopiska värdsliga och transsubjektiva tillblivelser genom utvecklandet av olika teoretiska begrepp. Genom ett kritiskt förhållningssätt till audiovisualitet och feministisk filmteori, revideras och omformuleras haptisk åskådarskapsteori och dess kritik i en västerländsk okularcentrism genom olika teoretiska innovationer. De metodologiska verktygen som utvecklas i avhandlingen, såsom “the entrant”, “the exit scape” samt “sensible cinematic intra-activity” utgör här funktionen som multisensorisk metodologi för transdisciplinära transstudier, feministisk filmteori samt för visuell kultur i stort.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to examine the role of imagination in Immanuel Kant&amp<br>#8217<br>s Critique of Pure Reason by means of a detailed textual analysis and interpretation. In my systematic reading of the Kantian text, I analyse how the power of imagination comes to the foreground of Kant&amp<br>#8217<br>s investigation into the transcendental conditions of knowledge. This is to explain the mediating function of imagination between the two distinct faculties of the subject<br>between sensibility and understanding. Imagination achieves its mediating function between sensibility and understanding through its activity of synthesis. By means of exploring the features of the activity of synthesis I attempt to display that imagination provides the ground of the unification of sensibility and understanding. The argument of this study resides in the claim that the power of imagination, through its transcendental synthesis, provides the ground of the possibility of all knowledge and experience. This is to announce imagination as the building block of Kant&amp<br>#8217<br>s Copernican Revolution that grounds the objectivity of knowledge in its subjective conditions. Therefore, the goal of this study is to display imagination as a distinctive human capacity that provides the relation of our knowledge to the objects.

The matrix equations of the problem are determined through the finite element method, and then put in such a form that they become functions of the structural parameters. A non symmetrical formulation in structural displacement and tluid pressure is used to describe the system. Once the natural frequencies and modes for a set of parameters are found, the optimization process is conducted using the modal sensitivity analysis. The objective is either to maximize the gap between some adjacent natural frequencies,or to minimizethe frequency response in a specific region of the system for one set of excitation frequencies.This is done by modifying the shape parameters. The effect of proportional damping is included in the model. The results are validated with numerical solutions available in the literature. Additional results using the modal prediction in the optimization are also analyzed.

Neste trabalho discutimos a análise bayesiana em modelos TRI (Teoria da Resposta ao Item) de três parâmetros com respostas binárias e ordinais, considerando a ligação probito. Em ambos os casos usamos técnicas baseadas em MCCM (método de Monte Carlo baseado em Cadeias de Markov) para estimação dos parâmetros dos itens. No modelo com respostas binárias, consideramos dois conjuntos de dados resultantes de provas com itens de múltipla-escolha. Para esses dados, foi feito um estudo da sensibilidade à escolha de distribuições a priori, além de uma análise das estimativas a posteriori para os parâmetros dos itens: discriminação, dificuldade e probabilidade de acerto ao acaso. Um terceiro conjunto de dados foi utilizado no estudo do modelo com respostas ordinais. Estes dados são provenientes de uma disciplina básica de estatística, onde a prova contêm itens dissertativos. As respostas foram classificadas nas categorias: certa, errada ou parcialmente certa. Utilizamos o programa WinBugs para a estimação dos parâmetros do modelo binário e a função MCMCordfactanal do programa R para estimar os parâmetros do modelo ordinal. Ambos os softwares são não proprietários e gratuitos (livres).<br>In this dissertation the bayesian analysis for three parameters IRT (Item Response Theory) models with binaries and ordinals responses, considering the probit model, was discussed. For both cases, binary and ordinal, techniques based on MCCM (Monte Carlo Markov Chain) were used to estimate the items parameters. For binary response model, was considered two data sets from tests with multipla choices items. For these two data sets, a sensibility study of the priori distributions choice was considered, and also, an analyses of a posteriori estimates of the items parameters: discrimination, difficulties and guessing. A third data set is used to ilustrate the ordinal response model. This come from an elementar statistical course, where a test with open items is considered. The responses are classified in the following categories: correct, wrong or partial correct. The WinBugs software was used to estimate the parameters for the binary model and, for the ordinal model was considered the function MCMCordfactanal from R program.

Abstract:
Japan is geopolitically blessed with natural grace such as beautiful four seasons, abundant forest, fruitful earth and fresh water. And it seems that it has induced the deep trust between nature and human and has cultivated the Japanese unique culture which harmonizes nature with human sensibility. The origin of handmade technology in Japan dates back to the Jomon period more than 10,000 years ago. The Jomon potteries excavated were made by utilizing the technologies of kneading clay with water and sintering by fire, and some of them were discovered to have the lacquer coatings on their surfaces extracted from plants. The conventional technology would be created by our predecessors who had the sophisticated sensitivity and the excellent imagination cultivated with the careful observation of nature behavior. The technology was handed down to today through various historical changes in response to the diverse values of the individual era. It can be considered that the Japanese conventional technology is the nature friendly cultural asset co-created by nature and human through the long-term environmental changes more than 10000 years. Future-applied conventional technology is the most reliable technology study to develop the future and to hand over the advanced value to the next generation.In this study, we scrutinized the related theme studied by Future-Applied Conventional Technology Center in Kyoto Institute of Technology, in order to extract the engineering element inherent in the conventional technologies and classify into common elements and specific elements for each technology. From the view point of nature and human relation, engineering elements were extracted comprehensively about the main materials, the auxiliary materials, the human sensibility, the hand tools and the human skills. The main materials and the auxiliary materials were classified into “wood, fire, earth, metal, water” according to the old Eastern thought “the five elements theory” which constitute nature, and animal-derived materials in addition. The human sensibility elements were extracted about the material evaluation, the dynamic process observation and the finished degree evaluation and classified into five senses “visual, auditory, tactile, taste, smell”, and the other sense such as fitness feeling with clothes or accessories. The hand tools were listed such as brush, trowel, spatula, scissors and hammer with the features of usage. The human skills were extracted about each material manipulating process comprehensively and classified into common elements and specific elements, by considering the features respectively. With applying this study as a guideline for the innovation of the future technology harmonized with nature and human, it would be expected to promote variety of researches of the conventional technology and to develop the future technology for the modern cutting-edge field, by feeling the importance of the engineering elements and their relationship study inherent in the conventional technology.

Abstract:
This paper develops topics on architectural instruction in three ways: (1) analysis of authenticity in the design studio, (2) evaluation of high- and low-level intentions, and (3) proposing an advanced studio developing design sensibility. Design education balances technique and sensibility. Students need skills to communicate their work effectively. They also need freedom to be creative with their ideas. Learning self-reliance empowers students’ connection to discourse. Methods for design instruction need to be robust enough to accommodate alternative approaches for production.

Abstract:
This paper examines the sensibility of rock motion of flat-bottom cylindrical shell tanks to the lateral force induced by the sloshing motion. Since the natural period of sloshing motion of the tank may be close to that of rocking motion of the tank, their resonance may result the serious damages of the storage systems. Therefore, it is necessary to examine their fundamental behavior beforehand. Using horizontal sinusoidal ground motion whose period matches the natural period of 1st sloshing mode of the tank, the rocking motion of the tank is numerically examined. The results imply that the sloshing behavior has the potential to make tanks rock.

Abstract:
Today’s strict fuel economy requirement produces the need for the cars to have really optimized shapes among other characteristics as optimized cooling packages, reduced weight, to name a few. With the advances in automotive technology, tight global oil resources, lightweight automotive design process becomes a problem deserving important consideration. It is not however always clear how to modify the shape of the exterior of a car in order to minimize its aerodynamic resistance. Air motion is complex and operates differently at different weather conditions. This gap can be covered by the use of adjoint solvers which predict the sensibility of the aerodynamic forces to changes of the geometry. Alternatively, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) solvers can be partnered with optimization software which guide model design changes and evaluate the corresponding results. Design changes can be executed by modifying a parameterized geometry or using mesh morphing techniques. With the advances in computational fluid dynamics, design optimization methods in the aerodynamic design are more important than ever. In the present paper, ANSYS Fluent will be used in conjunction with the optimization software ANSYS DesignXplorer to study ways of reducing drag and lift for a simplified car body. ANSYS simulation software allows one to predict, with confidence, the impact of fluid flows on the product throughout design and manufacturing as well as during end use. CFD is a complex technology involving strongly coupled non-linear partial differential equations which attempt to computationally simulate theoretical and experimental models in a discrete domain of complex geometric shape. A detailed assessment of errors and uncertainties has to concern itself with the three roots of CFD: theory, experiment, and computation. Further, the application of CFD is rapidly expanding with the growth in computational resources. The body in question in this study is the Ahmed body [1] which has been used numerous times for CFD code validation. This geometry represents a road legal car which is used to study the effect of different forces like, aerodynamic drag force, lift force, and some other major forces which affect a car’s motion significantly. Despite being a simple body, accurate prediction of its aerodynamic performance often requires very accurate and computationally expensive calculations. We would like to investigate if meaningful optimizations can be achieved by using reduced resources, by analyzing how air at different velocity affect the body and what changes might be necessary for a further optimized performance. The purpose here is not to predict the absolute values of drag for this body, but to demonstrate that optimization can be performed with limited resources relying on information about drag deltas rather than absolute values. Keeping limiting resources in mind, a grid independence study wasn’t done.

Full text
Abstract:
The paper presents the results of a research project aiming at developing an innovative framework for conceptual design of products based on innovative haptic interfaces. The framework consists of a CAD (Computer Aided Design) system enhanced with intuitive interaction tools and modalities for modeling, modification and evaluation of shapes. The system aims at exploiting designers’ skills in modeling products, improving the products design process by reducing the necessity to build several physical models for evaluating and testing the product designs. The system proposes an emotional engineering approach by supporting product designers in translating their sensibility into physical design factors, allowing easy and fast creation and evaluation of diverse shape solutions. The system requirements have been defined after observing designers during their daily work and translating the way they evaluate and modify shapes using hands and craft tools into specifications for the modeling system and the haptic tool. The system prototype has been tested by designers who have found it intuitive and effective to use.

Abstract:
Three numerical methods, finite differences, finite volume and finite element, were compared to know their convenience in the simulation of convective drying of fruit slices. The mathematical treatment, the stability, the convergence and the sensibility were analysed for each method. The data of the simulations were compared with the data of feijoa dried at 60°C, 5 mm of thickness and air velocity of 0.5ms-1. The error was 7%, 13% and 17% for finite element, finite volume and finite differences respectively. The method selection depends on the software, the required data precision and the use of the model. Keywords: mathematical model; convective drying; numerical methods

Abstract:
Our prior work presented a method for computationally structuring patent databases as a basis for an automated design-by-analogy tool. In order to examine the validity and sensibility of the prior work as the basis for a design tool, its output is compared in detail to expert designers’ mental models of the domain being structured, i.e., a set of 45 patents and their inter-relationships. The comparison sought first to gauge the intuitiveness and sensibility of the computational method of structuring to human minds, and further to ascertain whether any differences between the method’s and the experts’ structures indicate potentially novel or surprising ways of approaching the space of patents, or indicate that the output was nonsensical, invalid or needing modification in order to be useable. The results indicate that, when compared to expert thinking, the computationally generated structure is sensible in its clustering of patents and in its organization of these clusters into a structure or space. The results also suggest that the computationally-generated structure represents a version of the patent space upon which experts can find common ground and consensus — making it likely to be intuitive and accessible to a broad cohort of designers. Thus, the prior work which presented a computational method for structuring design databases has been found to offer a resource-efficient way of usefully representing the space that is sensible to expert designers, while still preserving an element of surprise and unexpectedness, making it promising as the basis for a computational design-by-analogy inspiration tool.

Abstract:
After being asked to respond to the Arts Education Act of 2015 by the Ministry of Education, Taiwan, concerning curricula and their impact on music education, what follows are some observations and reflections from the Tainan University of Technology (TUT), Taiwan, about its educators' experiences of teaching undergraduate music and music degrees. The idea put forward isthatskills/knowledge competency reflects an emergent sensibility in contemporary music cultures, and this represents an opportunity for music educators to reconfigure and strengthen their pedagogical approaches. By recognizing the legitimacy of new and varied forms of musicianship and acknowledging the ways in which course curricula continue to grow in their range of practices and necessary literacies, strategies can be developed to support broader, cohesive, inclusive, diverse, meaningful, and useful experiences for music students.

Abstract:
In most large port cities, the challenge of inter-terminal transfers (ITT) prevails due to the long distance between multiple terminals. The quantity of containers requiring movement between terminals as they connect from pre-carrier to on-carrier is increasing with the formation of the mega-alliances. The paper proposes a continuous time mathematical programming model to optimize the deployment and schedule of trucks and barges to minimize the number of operating transporters, their makespan, costs and the distance travelled by the containers by choosing the right combination of transporters and container movements while fulfilling time window restrictions imposed on reception of the containers. A multi-step routing problem is developed where transporters can travel from one terminal to another and/or load or unload containers from a specific batch at each step.The model proves successful in identifying the costless schedule and means of transportation. And a sensibility analysis over the parameters used is provided.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/CIT2016.2016.4149

Abstract:
This work involves a methodology for Mechanical Engineering students to learn Computational Fluid Dynamics playing an active role. Students carry out a fluid mechanics down scaled projects with the steps of sensibility of mesh, convergence of numerical algorithm, validation of turbulence model and description of flow patterns. Furthermore, they develop their critical thought when they identify weak points susceptible for improvement. The offer of benchmark test cases ranges from head loses, driven cavities, swirling flows, to external aerodynamics. Simplifications to the level of undergraduate courses imply two dimensional simulations and a limited number of grid points. Hence, the assessment is based in coherence of decisions and efficient use of limited resources. A review of the offer of workshops is supplied, such as the Ahmed car, the Roback and Johnson burner, aerodynamics of different NACA airfoils, and different geometries of driven cavities. These are classical test cases of numerical research and a sample of applications in wind energy, industrial furnaces, and lubrication. Parametrization based in geometry, Reynolds number, Pitch angle among other, let simulate different flow patterns with similar degree of difficulty. There is a deeper understanding of the topic when students need to discuss the strategies to accomplish the project, they need to write a technical report and finally they need to justify the evaluation of other works. Also, it is important to link the simplified projects of the workshop with the real world and the industrial applications.
