This article examines the effectiveness of management and quality improvement due to the various tools considered in the article; it gives recommendations for improving the efficiency of staff, training it for a new level and improve its qualifications and the efficiency of the hotel. In the face of fierce competition, hotel companies come up with and carry out new searches for modern methods of increasing competitiveness between hotel companies and creating demand for hotel services. One of the ways to make a hotel competitive is to enhance the hotel services in the enterprise. Hotel services directly depend on the competence of the staff, on their preparedness and stress resistance. In turn, the hotel company must contain satisfied employees to service hotel guests. Basically, the HR department monitors the number of personnel, their main task is to have as many employees in the company as should be in the staffing table. But now today it is important for the personnel department to achieve not only the timely filling of personnel, but to hire competent employees with good knowledge and qualifications. It is necessary to retain a good worker by offering and developing good working conditions, a system of motivation and quality management. As a result, an agreed personnel policy will be developed, which includes a system of personnel selection, training, improvement, personnel remuneration, as well as an established policy and subordination between management and subordinates. This article examines how, by applying different methods, to build good relationships between employees, to increase the motivation system, and to be a competitive hotel.

Full textAbstract:
PurposeThis work analyses make or buy decisions from the transaction cost economics perspective and the resource‐based view of the firm. The aim is to analyse the extent to which the presumptions of the two theories are valid in the service sector in terms of specific assets.Design/methodology/approachThe study was conducted on a representative sample of hotels in Scotland, UK. Each of the surveyed hotels was asked for information about 13 operations or hotel processes. A comprehensive model is developed that establishes the relationship between asset specificity and operation performance and hotel or business performance, moderated by the form of governance (make or buy). Moreover, the relationship between asset specificity and outsourcing in the hotel sector is also examined. The different hotel processes are classified according to the asset specificity. The factors that could lead to an increase in the outsourcing strategy are also analysed.FindingsThe results indicate that, the relationship between asset specificity and operation performance is weaker when the operations are executed in‐house. In the case of the relationship between specific assets and performance, the findings regarding non‐financial performance are not contradictory since it is slightly higher when the operation is outsourced. The factors determining an increase in outsourcing would be those related to the quality of the operation and to non‐financial performance.Research limitations/implicationsPrevious studies have not considered the relationship between specificity and business performance, which gives extra incentive to complement and expand the literature on service operations. Future research should analyze other theories on organisations and outsourcing. The findings should also be tested in other geographical regions and use sources of information other than the hotel managers.Practical implicationsThe work generates knowledge and aids managers in their “make or buy” decisions for the principal processes in the hotel industry according to the asset specificity.Originality/valueThe paper develops a specificity‐outsourcing matrix and identifies each of the hotel operations. Apart from testing the model in the hotel sector, which is an important sector of the service industry, the work offers a better understanding of outsourcing decisions based on the two basic theories used in the literature on services management. The paper also makes an innovative contribution by analysing relationships between operation specificity and performance that are previously untested in the service sector.

This study of the effects of lenses of different colors on the visual abilities and comfort of 20 patients with retinal disease found that in home trials, orange, yellow, and light neutral-density lenses were generally helpful, but the critical issue was density more than color. Office tests of visual acuity and contrast sensitivity with colored lenses did not predict subjective benefit. The results suggest that no specific color is uniquely effective and that home trial of several lenses may be the best way to judge which filter (if any) will help an individual patient.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractBackgroundAyahuasca's effects on symptoms of depression have generated considerable optimism. Clients frequently report more concern about some symptoms than others, and available treatments alter symptoms differentially. Few studies address the symptom specificity of this psychoactive brew.AimsWe examined self-reported effects of ayahuasca on the individual symptoms of depression assessed by the 10-item short-form of Center for Epidemiological Studies of Depression (CESD-10).MethodsWe asked over 120 participants to complete a retrospective assessment of CESD-10 symptoms one month before and one month after using ayahuasca.ResultsParticipants indicated that ayahuasca had a larger influence on affective symptoms like hope, depressed mood, and happiness, than cognitive, interpersonal, and somatic symptoms like restless sleep, loneliness, and difficulty focusing.ConclusionsPotential clients might appreciate identifying if different treatments provide more relief for some depressive symptoms than others. We examined retrospective reports of ayahuasca's potential for differential impact. Those eager to alter hope, happiness, and other affective symptoms will likely find ayahuasca more helpful than those who want an intervention for restless sleep, loneliness, or trouble focusing. This symptom specificity parallels the effects of serotonergic antidepressant medications, suggesting that psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy using ayahuasca might have considerable appeal for those who seek comparable relief but would rather not use prescription serotonergic medications. Jumpstarting psychotherapy with the rapid onset of ayahuasca-induced relief also appears to have potential.

ObjectiveChildren with Down syndrome are at high risk of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and screening is recommended. Diagnosis of OSA should be confirmed with multichannel sleep studies. We aimed to determine whether home pulse oximetry (HPO) discriminates children at high risk of OSA, who need further diagnostic multichannel sleep studies.DesignCross-sectional prospective study in a training sample recruited through three UK centres. Validation sample used single-centre retrospective analysis of clinical data.PatientsChildren with Down syndrome aged 0.5–6 years.InterventionDiagnostic multichannel sleep study and HPO.Main outcome measuresSensitivity and specificity of HPO to predict moderate-to-severe OSA.Results161/202 children with Down syndrome met quality criteria for inclusion and 25 had OSA. In this training sample, the best HPO parameter predictors of OSA were the delta 12 s index >0.555 (sensitivity 92%, specificity 65%) and 3% oxyhaemoglobin (SpO2) desaturation index (3% ODI)>6.15 dips/hour (sensitivity 92%, specificity 63%). Combining variables (delta 12 s index, 3% ODI, mean and minimum SpO2) achieved sensitivity of 96% but reduced specificity to 52%. All predictors retained or improved sensitivity in a clinical validation sample of 50 children with variable loss of specificity, best overall was the delta 12 s index, a measure of baseline SpO2 variability (sensitivity 92%; specificity 63%).ConclusionsHPO screening could halve the number of children with Down syndrome needing multichannel sleep studies and reduce the burden on children, families and health services alike. This approach offers a practical universal screening approach for OSA in Down syndrome that is accessible to the non-specialist paediatrician.

Full textAbstract:
Russian firms suffer from the negative country of origin effect and legitimacy shortage. This paper has the aim to reveal factors for Russian firms to focus on while build legitimacy both at home and abroad. To identify the existing research directions, the 48 articles applying legitimacy and Russian focus from journals in management and business for all years were analyzed, using both the bibliometric analysis and manual in-depth study of papers. Based on the specificity of the Russian context and literature analysis about the factors of the legitimacy concept, we develop a theoretical framework that is supported by a set of propositions about possible legitimization strategies of Russian firms. Three main pillars of the organizational legitimacy construct such as moral, pragmatic and cognitive, which are accepted as the most influential ones, were introduced and proposed for Russian firms how to gain them at home and abroad. This paper has the value for both theory and practice. It contributes to the legitimacy literature, responding to many calls to study the microfoundations of the organizational legitimacy and developing the holistic theoretical framework within the Russian context. The findings also are of practical importance for managers and entrepreneurs whose attention is paid to the effective strategic management and legitimacy building both at home and abroad.

Full textAbstract:
This paper exemplifies a secondary data analysis of context–specific differences in children's hyperactivity–impulsivity while controlling for informant–specific effects. Participants were boys and girls from the NICHD Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development whose behaviours were measured in 1st, 3rd and 5th grades. Latent factor models were structured using multi–informant reports including mothers, fathers, teachers and observers. Temporal stability within a context was stronger than cross–context consistency, and the magnitude of longitudinal stability was higher in the home context compared to the school context. Controlling for informant–specific effects resulted in a significantly improved model fit and increased within–context stability. Our findings highlight the importance of considering both context and informant effects when studying longitudinal stability and change in personality development.

Nous avons etudier la relation qui lie le virus de l'hepatite b (vhb) a sa cellule cible, l'hepatocyte. Dans un premier temps nous avons recherche des sequences peptidiques presentes sur l'enveloppe virale, responsables de l'infection specifique d'espece du vhb. Dans ce but, nous avons construit des virus pseudotypes renfermant le genome du vhb, mais portant a leur surface soit les proteines d'enveloppes du vhb soit celles du wmhbv, un autre virus de la famille du vhb. Les acides amines n-terminaux de la grande proteine de surface (proteine l) de ces virus, ont ete substitues par les residus homologues provenant de l'autre virus. Le pouvoir infectieux de ces virus a ete teste in vitro sur des hepatocytes humains en culture primaire et des marqueurs d'infection ont alors ete recherches. Nos resultats montrent que seuls les 30 premiers acides amines de la region n-terminale de la proteine l du vhb sont responsables de l'infection specifique d'espece. Dans une seconde partie de notre travail nous avons evalue l'influence du statut en fer de l'hepatocyte sur le cycle viral. Ainsi, nous avons deplete ou surcharge en fer des cellules d'une lignee cellulaire transfectee de facon stable par le genome du vhb. Alors que, quelle que soient les conditions de culture, la surcharge en fer ne modifie pas les taux intra ou extracellulaires d'adn viral, l'absence de fer augmente les quantites cytoplasmiques d'adn viral et fait chuter la production du vhb dans des cellules proliferantes. Ces variations sont observees pour les arn viraux et, dans une moindre mesure, pour les proteines d'enveloppe virales. Dans les cellules confluentes, seule une legere diminution de la production virale est observee, indiquant que l'arret du cycle cellulaire suite a la depletion en fer est responsable des variations observees. Cet aspect est discute grace a la consequence sur le cycle viral de l'emploi d'un autre bloqueur du cycle cellulaire, l'hydroxyuree.

Full textAbstract:
Thesis (M. Arch.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1989.Includes bibliographical references (p. 114-120).
This thesis explores housing through the filter of enabling, an Elizabethan word which has come to be associated with inhabitant empowerment. It proposes the existence of basic cultural, economic and constructional as well as formal categories of enabling. Such characteristics are observable and describable; in so doing, we develop schemata both for rational decision-making and also for judging the performance effectiveness of architectural moves. We also become better designers through reengaging our chaotic environment. This means understanding those biases which prevent us from recognizing the inherent good fit between inhabitant needs and desires, and environments like the Levittowns. Enabling Housing is the culmination of a design research, one which engages design as a tool for understanding. Building upon specific common typologies -the row house, the suburban house and the courtyard house-"developed models" were explored to more fully understand type and its role in low-cost housing. In each iteration, enabling character was enhanced or implemented through evident capacity for use change and transformation; strategic material placement; referential clues about potential transformation; and fractal opportunistic response to specific conditions like site. Formally, the thesis proposes transforming imageable schematic typologies to generate starter dwellings--housing which grows. Specifically, it examines implications in the architectural design of extremely low-cost housing with minimal initial square footage and large unfinished volumes - a basic approach of the Levittowns. The design process thus begins with a modelled type, a recombinant configuration of robust dimensions, systems and logics of assemblage and construction. The actual starter home then results from builder and inhabitant and site transformations of the abstracted type. Additional formal, material and referential clues designed into the dwelling's systems support subsequent incremental growth. On a broader level, two more general areas of inquiry focused the research: domesticity as a cultural artifact, and exploration of chaology, the nascent science which already has shattered our confidence in LaPlacian models at many levels wherein they had been implicitly assumed to be operative. Recognition of chaos, sensitive dependence upon initial conditions and the limits of predictive control models like master plans have brought many questions to bear upon architectural practice. In the last section of this thesis, we outline the changing paradigm as it is emerging.

During a research process on financial speculation in relation to the home, Carl-Oskar Linné encounters statistics and reports that tell of rising unemployment among realtors. By investigating an alleged flight from the realtor profession and asking questions of prospective, current and former realtors, he attempts to understand the relationship of home sellers to their home, the housing list, the speculation mechanism and security. What are the living conditions and how is the relationship to housing policy? This essay tells about the state of the Swedish housing market and explains what has led to the work "Speculation"/"Mäklare", a work at its core questioning market ideology. The texts also describes work methods, sources of inspiration and some earlier work.Under en researchprocess om finansiell spekulation i förhållande till hemmet stöter Carl-Oskar Linné på statistik och rapporter som berättar om en ökande arbetslöshet bland fastighetsmäklare.

Vilka är livsvillkoren och hur är förhållandet till bostadspolitiken? Denna uppsats beskriver tillståndet på den svenska bostadsmarknaden och vad som har lett till arbetet "Mäklare", ett verk som i grunden ifrågasätter marknadsideologin. Texten beskriver även arbetsmetoder, inspirationskällor och tidigare arbete.

Full textAbstract:
Kiev has always revealed a surprising capacity for assimilation, giving rise over time to multi-ethnic, multi-faith and multi-cultural contexts of various types. Thinking of the "Kiev text" leads inevitably to consideration of the other emblematic text of the Ukrainian identity, the no less composite reality of Lviv. This publication contains the contributions presented at a Conference (Milan, February 2007) addressed to the "cultural text" of Kiev and Lviv. The authors are specialists with different cultural profiles, and the book is of a deliberately inter-disciplinary character. In view of the richness and variety of the information it is offered, within the Italian and international context, as a useful source even for the non-specialist public, and is one of a very small number of books dedicated to Ukraine available in Italian. Clearly, the arguments addressed represent only a tiny part of the vast spectrum of issues and questions inherent to the specificity and plurality of Kiev and Lviv. The hope is that the seed sewn here will grow into further fruitful interest.

This chapter covers the multiple measures currently used to assess hope theory. Hope, as theorized by Snyder and colleagues, was originally determined to be a global construct measuring agency and pathways toward goal attainment. Using much of the original theory, hope research has expanded, resulting in multiple measures across different applications and domains. By exploring the context specificity, these scales have been shown to consistently predict outcomes across differing domains, supporting the reliability and validity of new hope measurement. It is anticipated that with more specific hope measurement, the more accurate hope assessment and intervention can become. Concepts covered in this chapter include academic hope, math hope, writing hope, work hope, children’s hope, employment hope, and state hope.

The aim of this collection is to contribute to the forging of a more robust, politically useful, and theoretically elaborate understanding of working-class literature(s). These essays map a substantial terrain: the history of working-class literature(s) in Argentina, Denmark, Germany, Japan, Singapore, South Africa and Ireland. Together with the essays in a previous volume – which cover Russia/The Soviet Union, The USA, Finland, Sweden, The UK, and Mexico – they give a complex picture of working-class literature(s) from an international perspective, without losing sight of national specificities. By capturing a wide range of definitions and literatures, the two volumes give a broad and rich picture of the many-facetted phenomenon of working-class literature(s), disrupt narrow understandings of the concept and phenomenon, as well as identify and discuss some of the most important theoretical and historical questions brought to the fore by the study of this literature.If read as stand-alone chapters, each contribution gives an overview of the history and research of a particular nation’s working-class literature. If read as a whole (which we hope you do), they contribute toward a more complex understanding of the global phenomenon of working-class literature(s).

In this chapter I hope to account for the international (literary and filmic) origin of recent Norwegian, Finnish and Icelandic crime films and television series as well as their particular local specificity. I will thus not only be assessing them in relation to their Swedish and Danish counterparts, but also to what I will be simply referring to as the international crime film. It is a norm mostly associated with Hollywood (albeit not limited to it) that is, as regards style, form and narrative structure, for the most part devoid of regional or national specificities. My use of the word ‘generic’ is intended to emphasise this dual nature by referring both to the essentials of a particular genre (crime) and a broad universality. Of particular concern is whether one can pinpoint any particular trajectory in the development of contemporary Norwegian, Finnish and Icelandic crime films made with international aspirations during this dramatic rise of Nordic noir – that still shows no sign of abating.

Full textAbstract:
Taking the Cold War state to be the origin of diffused suspicion, abstract enemies, and totalizing explanations, this chapter contends that contemporary ideology critique—based on the same dispositions—melancholically reproduces rather than challenges Cold War epistemologies. As an alternative, the chapter offers the practice of hope Granville Hicks and Constance Rourke developed around the empty signifiers nation, exceptionalism, and activism, concepts most often targeted by New Americanists (and New Historicists in general). Hicks argued for two Americas, one synonymous with capitalism and hence worthy of critique, and the other based on local communities that use nationhood to organize against capitalism and the models of national exceptionalism it requires. For Hicks, patriotism is an organizing concept for the economically disadvantaged majority who are weakened by their denied access to rhetorics of national belonging. Constance Rourke, turning to folkways that transform European culture into something distinctly American, focused on the specificity of cultures produced by distinctive communities within the United States, yet she used the particularity of cultural formations as the basis, rather than simply a renunciation, of national identity.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter concerns Israel H. Levinthal's sermon. His sermon reveals a realm of homiletical discourse far removed from that represented by the sermon of the previous chapter. There are no purple passages or polished periods, no memorable original turns of phrase. Except for the reference to the Battle of Britain and the war in Russia, there is no analysis of the details of the military situation abroad or of the specificity of political machinations. There is no engagement with the behaviour of American Jews in general or of Levinthal's congregants in particular. This is a sermon not of castigation and rebuke but of anguish and solace; the work of a preacher mobilizing the resources of the traditional literature to acknowledge the darkness of the world in his time, and yet to affirm at least the possibility of hope for something new and better.

Full textAbstract:
This introduction provides an overview of the historiography of English Catholicism in the early modern period and highlights the absence, until recently, of substantial academic work on the place and role of enclosed nuns in the survival and the Catholic mission. In an effort to contextualise the English convents in exile on the Continent, it asks the question of the national specificities of institutions which belonged to the same Church and the same Orders as continental monasteries yet were the product of very different circumstances at home. Moreover, the introduction highlights the interdisciplinarity of the study of convents, which is at the crossroads of prosopography, religious history, social history, political history, but can also be approached through the prisms of art history, literary studies, gender studies or emotion studies.

Full textAbstract:
The article traces the image of the estate, mainly, of the estate garden throughout the entire work of L.F. Zurov: in the story “Cadet”, the novels “The Ancient Way” and “The Field”, stories from the storybook “Maryanka”. The author’s attention is focused on the crucial era of revolutions and wars, against the background of which the ambiguity of the functions of the estate garden is revealed. Despite the specificity of the descriptions, it always appears in an existential projection. On the one hand, the garden is subjected to violent destruction, and on the other, it sets off the state of mind of the heroes, proving the inextricable link of a tree and a man. The author explains the selection of trees that inhabit the garden (apple tree, linden, fir tree, alder, etc.). But the main thing is that the image of the estate garden has an ontological coloring: it combines the transitory and the eternal, the semantics of eternal life and beauty are preserved, there is hope for the revival of the lost paradise.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter explores how the growing awareness of the global dimensions of development had made international organizations, especially the United Nations, crucial to development thinking and practice. International organizations' involvement in development proceeded in stages, converging toward “one size fits all,” universal technocratic knowledge, and solutions unconnected to cultural specificities, even if distinctive in their ideological orientation. In the 1990s, the naturalized French diplomat Stéphane Hessel wrote that development was a concept that informed the whole structure of the United Nations and gave it meaning. He claimed it took forty years to move from the black-and-white reasoning of the 1950s toward a more nuanced view. The chapter tells the story of this transformation. International organizations that had acted as agencies of civilization in late colonial times became arenas in which different ideas of modernity were articulated. Some, like the World Bank, were clearly the expression of a Western capitalist mindset, whereas others, like the United Nations, provided a home for both technocratic thinking and anti-imperialist ideas that differed from the prevailing modernization theory.

Full textAbstract:
The Mojave Desert in the southwestern United States is one of the hottest and driest areas of North America. Climate change is likely to exacerbate these conditions. The region is home to many endemic plant species, including 24 federally threatened species. The impact of climate change factors on these sensitive Mojave Desert species is relatively unknown. Here we used a climate change vulnerability assessment to determine which imperiled plants may be most affected by changing climatic conditions. We evaluated the vulnerability of each species under future climate scenarios and calculated scores using metrics such as exposure, sensitivity, niche breadth, and dispersal capability. We found that most listed plant species were vulnerable to climate change, with 21% (N = 5) classified as extremely vulnerable, 25% (N = 6) classified as highly vulnerable, and 42% (N = 10) classified as moderately vulnerable. Contributing factors most frequently associated with vulnerability included various barriers to migration, high habitat specificity, and species sensitivity to changes in hydrological patterns. Many of these species are already threatened by ongoing anthropogenic stressors such as urban growth and associated developments, and these results suggest that climate change will pose additional challenges for conservation and management. Natural resource managers can use the vulnerability ranking and contributing factors identified from these analyses to inform ecological decisions related to threatened plants throughout desert regions.

Identifying subjective sentences and classifying the polarity of subjective sentences are two important tasks in sentiment analysis. Besides being a hot topic, there is still a lack of resources to perform the mentioned sentiment analysis tasks in the Portuguese language, with its syntactic specificities. This paper describes the identified challenges and next steps in an initial study regarding the classification of subjectivity and polarity of sentences with a small set of syntactic features extracted directly from the text. Our approach reached satisfying results in experiments with two classic machine learning models in four datasets consisting of user reviews from different domains.

Full textAbstract:
Using the contra-rotating high and low rotors influences effectively on the turbocompressor parameters and configuration and improves its mass-dimension characteristics and reduces in component number if the required level of the fuel efficiency is provided. Two groups of the engines: 400–1000 shp class and 1000–2000 shp class are chosen with allowance for the small GTE specificity. Conformably to first group the influence of the gas generator turbine (GGT) diameter on the possibility of obtaining the optimal combination of the GGT wheel blade gas dynamic loading, clearance losses and flow swirl before the power turbine (PT) is studied. Used for the second group is the approach of which the main point lies in the utilization of a high-loading, single-stage GG turbine, permitting the cooling air flow to be reduced (or the gas temperature to be increased) and the flow swirl before the PT to be profitably realized against the engine having two-stage GGT. The key point while solving the specified problem is the gas dynamic characteristics of the engine hot section and its influence on the engine parameters. The investigations are carried out in the engine system using the experimental data on the losses in the rectilinear turbine cascades of the slightly curved profiles.

Full textAbstract:
A semi-quantitative RNP using 99Technetium macroaggregated albumin for the evaluation and follow-up of DVT and CVI has been developed. Values were assigned to the deep veins of the calf, knee, tigh and pelvis based upon the localization and the characteristics of the images obtained: stasis, hot spots and collateral circulation. A maximum score of 18 reflected complete thrombosis of all 4 segments. 208 patients (mean age 53.7 years, range 18-92), 161 of whom had a proven risk factor for DVT were studied. 99Technetium was injected into the dorsal foot vein of 407 limbs with appropriate tourniquets and early and late imaging of the limbs, pelvis and lungs was performed. In 48 patients, 83 limbs, X-ray contrast phlebography (CP) was also done. The mean RNP score was 4.1 units (range 0.4-18) and higher in the left than the right lower limb. It was mostly high in patients with proximal recurrent DVT or in DVT superimposed on CVI. The score was easy to follow and helpful in the assessment of the extent of DVT. It was particularly helpful in 3 instances. 1) Assessment of venous patency following anticoagulant therapy. 2) Estimation of recurrent DVT. 3) Differentiation of recent DVT from venous insufficiency. Overall RNP method had a sensitivity of 87.6%, a specificity of 54% and an accuracy of 64.8%. The sensitivity was similar in above & below-knee thrombi. Yet the specificity was higher in above-knee thrombi. The highest accuracy (87.3%) was observed in pelvic and groin thrombi. The distribution of thrombi on CP was 19% below the knee, 31% above it and 50% both above and below the knee. Pulmonary embolism (PE) was initially observed in 54 patients (26%) with no clinical evidence of DVT and therefore untreated. This high level is most probably related to the high incidence of proximal DVT in the patients. 181 patients were treated with heparin & coumadin and the RNP score was decreased to 3.6 units (range 0.4-8.8). PE occurred during treatment in 11 (6.1%) and recurrent DVT in 16 (8.8%) patients. CVI was observed in 23 patients before treatment and in another 24 patients (13.2%) after treatment. These results indicate that the RNP method is a simple, semi-quantitative and useful technique for the evaluation and follow-up of DVT and CVI. It is most helpful in the assessment of the extent of DVT. It is also a rapid, noninvasive and cost effective techniaue.

Full textAbstract:
An increasing number of Floating offshore units reach maturity (> 10 years). This induces costly maintenance operations related to hull structure corrosion damage. While crop and renew operations are generally performed in dry docks for supertankers, the FPSO are maintained afloat offshore on the oil field. For obvious security reasons hot work such as welding and gauging are prohibited without a heavy set of recommendations. Naturally, FPSO’s operators have sought “cold” solutions for decades. This paper describes the specificities of a particular structural bonded reinforcement (ColdShield developed by COLDPAD). A general description of its particularity in the fields of installation and durability is given, but this article is mainly focused on reinforcement strength criterion. Bonded reinforcement strength is known as difficult to predict, making design methodologies not compatible with industrial applications. The innovation in the design of the presented solution leads to a special behavior in terms of strength. It is revealed by the comparison of results of the qualification test campaign with results of tests realized on a standard bonded patch application. Finite element modelling computed parallelly to the tests are used to analyze the test results. The robustness of the reached strength criteria is discussed.

Full textAbstract:
To deepen the knowledge of the interaction between modern lean burn combustors and high pressure turbines, a non-reactive real scale annular trisector Combustor Simulator (CS) has been assembled at University of Florence, with the goal of investigating and characterizing the combustor aerothermal field as well as the hot streak transport towards the high pressure vanes. To generate hot streaks and simulate lean burn combustor behaviors, the rig is equipped with axial swirlers fed by a main air flow stream that is heated up to 531 K, while liners with effusion cooling holes are fed by air at ambient temperature. Detailed experimental investigations are then performed with the aim of characterizing the turbulence quantities at the exit of the combustion module, and specifically evaluating an integral scale of turbulence. To do so, an automatic traverse system is mounted at the exit of the CS and equipped to perform Hot Wire Anemometry (HWA) measurements. In this paper, two-point correlations are computed from the time signal of the axial velocity giving access to an evaluation of the turbulence timescales at each measurement point. For assessment of the advanced numerical method that is Large Eddy Simulation (LES), the same methodology is applied to a LES prediction of the CS. Although comparisons seem relevant and easily accessible, both approaches and contexts have fundamental differences: mostly in terms of duration of the signals acquired experimentally and numerically but also with potentially different acquisition frequencies. In the exercise that aims at comparing high-order statistics and diagnostics, the specificity of comparing experimental and numerical results is comprehensively discussed. Attention is given to the importance of the acquisition frequency, intrinsic bias of having a short duration signal and influence of the investigating windows. For an adequate evaluation of the turbulent time scales, it is found that comparing experiments and numerics for high Reynolds number flows inferring small-scale phenomena requires to obey a set of rules, otherwise important errors can be made. If adequately processed, LES and HWA are found to agree well indicating the potential of LES for such problems.

The solid temperature prediction is one of the most widespread type of modelization used in the industry. One reading this study might wonder why there would be readymade solutions for many industries and why they would not fit for combustor wall temperatures calculation. The specificity of state-of-the-art and future combustors is the massive use of effusion cooling for its thermal management. Effusion cooling consists of drilling thousands of sub millimetric holes into the combustor wall in order to cool it from inside the holes and create a cooling film inside the combustor protecting its wall from the hot combustion gases. Effusion cooling has long time been very challenging for combustor simulations because it involves length scales ranging from ½ millimeter (about the size of the effusion holes) to ½ meter (about the diameter of the combustor). That is one of the main reasons for which 3D simulations of an effusion cooled combustor wall temperature has long been inaccessible, and has generated the studies presented in this paper. This study focuses on setting up a 3D model able to describe finely the physical phenomena involved in combustor effusion cooling and the influence of the design parameters available to combustor engineers on these phenomena. The final goal is to use the knowledge generated in this study to create or improve existing uniform effusion cooling thermal models developed by several teams. The logic which prevails in the setup of the numerical 3D detailed model is to find a compromise between the reliability and the CPU cost of the simulation. Indeed the objective is to study the influence of a very wide range of effusion cooling design parameters such as hole diameter, orientation, pattern, length, etc... on the cooling effectiveness. In addition, for a better understanding of the physical phenomena, all the simulations are performed at the same aerothermal conditions. These aerothermal conditions as blowing ratio, cooling temperature, pressure are not design parameters of effusion cooled walls. They are usually imposed by the gas turbine thermodynamic cycle very early in the development of a new engine. More than 30 CFD simulations have been performed and show the influence of each effusion cooling design parameter taken separately: effusion holes density, angle with respect to the combustor wall, orientation with respect to the main flow, pattern at a fixed density, and diameter. Some of these simulations have been compared to experimental results in order to validate the global numerical method. Then, the analysis of this design of experiment showed that some of the design parameters have strongly nonlinear effects and coupled influences on the wall cooling and on the aerothermal phenomena involved. On the other hand, the simulations show that the effect of some other parameters could be easily described by simple models or even neglected. This study concludes by giving a summary of the design parameters influence on the heat transfer factors to be modeled in a full uniform effusion cooling thermal model, taking into account the cooling / heating on the three sides of the wall: - on the cool side - inside the effusion holes - on the hot side, inside the combustor

Full textAbstract:
Today, 3D printing is taking its constantly growing part in a lot of different manufacturing industries, educational institutions and a lot of entrepreneurship and home businesses. Besides prototyping and proof of concept, utilization of 3D printing is undoubtedly spreading its roots in manufacturing of production and spare parts but also in aiding research and teaching processes. 3D printing has reinforced the self-employed segment of market called makers but also has influenced forming a significant number of educational online video channels. A lot of crowdfunded web sites promote affordable desktop 3D printers and 3D modellers and designers who design models exclusively for 3D printing, taking its specificity into account. Also, a community of designers, through 3D printing hubs where their work can be purchased, are thriving. There is also a massive trend in developing new materials for 3D printing such as electrically conductive composites, fire-resistant materials and materials with high strength or resilience. In the graphic industry, there is some progress regarding the utilization of 3D printing in the form of tactile maps and picture books, manufacturing customizable packaging, embossing tools, making parts for colour measuring equipment and printing of textiles. However, there is undoubtedly undiscovered usage intended for improvements in this branch of industry. The first part of this research aims to present existing researches and projects regarding the usage of 3D printing in creative and interdisciplinary industries such as graphic industry. The second part of this paper focuses on different initiatives in aiding educational process worldwide, and some of the methodology of implementing 3D printing in education. In the final part of this research, the potential of 3D printing for educational purposes of graphic engineering and design students is discussed. Methodology for getting theoretical and practical knowledge is proposed through a designed catalogue of 3D printing parameters. The purpose of this catalogue is to introduce undergraduate students with one of the most used and affordable 3D printing technique known as Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) and to provide them with basic knowledge of 3D printing parameters which further on can be expanded and supplemented.
