Optimization of laser interferometers for the detection of gravitational waves from coalescing binaries

Coalescing compact binary systems are important sources of gravitational waves. Here we investigate the detectability of this gravitational radiation by the recently proposed laser interferometers. The spectral density of noise for various practicable configurations of the detector is also reviewed. This includes laser interferometers with delay lines and Fabry-Prot cavities in the arms, both in standard and dual recycling arrangements. The sensitivity of the detector in all those configurations is presented graphically and the signal-to-noise ratio is calculated numerically. For all configurations we find values of the detector's parameters which maximize the detectability of coalescing binaries, the discussion comprising Newtonian- as well as post-Newtonian-order effects. Contour plots of the signal-to-noise ratio are also presented in certain parameter domains which illustrate the interferometer's response to coalescing binary signals.

Load Ratings For Secondary Bridges Final Report Highway Research Advisory Board Project HR-239, May 1991

Load Rating: . , :Evaluation of the capacity of a bridge to carry vehicle Inventory Rating: Lbad level which can safely utilize the bridge for an indefinite period of time Operating Rating: Absolute maximum permissible load level for the bridge A load rating states the load in tons which a vehicle can impose on a bridge. Changes in guidelines, standards, and customary uses of bridges require analyses of bridges to be updated and re-evaluated. In this report, twenty-two secondary bridge standards for three types of bridges are rated for the AASHTO HS20-44 vehicle configuration and three typical Iowa legal vehicles

Relações intergovernamentais na educação à luz do conceito de regulação

O texto trata do Plano de Metas Compromisso Todos pela Educação e de seu principal instrumento, o Plano de Ações Articuladas, focando concepções e práticas vigentes nas relações entre União e municípios. Essas relações são caracterizadas e discutidas tendo em conta a cooperação federativa na educação, o regime de colaboração entre os sistemas de ensino e a assistência técnica e financeira da União na educação básica. Articulações entre União e municípios, no âmbito da política, são compreendidas com base na noção de regulação da ação pública e distinguidas como parte de processos instituintes de uma nova regulação na ação pública.
