novel design of at internal PIFA integrated with an RF-shielding metal case for application in a clamshell or fielder-tvpe mobile phone is presented. The integrated PIFA has a bent and tapered radiating arm in order to easily fit in the casing of the clamshell mobile phone as an internal antenna. The integrated PlEA can also provide a wide operating bandwidth fir UM7S (1920-2170 MHz) operation. In addition, for the clamshell mobile phone in either the talk or standby condition, only a small effect on the operating bandwidth of the integrated PIFA is obtained. The experimental results of the proposed design are presented

Friction welding is a solid state joining process that produces coalescence in materials, using the heat developed between surfaces through a combination of mechanical induced rubbing motion and applied load. In rotary friction welding technique heat is generated by the conversion of mechanical energy into thermal energy at the interface of the work pieces during rotation under pressure. Traditionally friction welding is carried out on a dedicated machine because of its adaptability to mass production. In the present work, steps were made to modify a conventional lathe to rotary friction welding set up to obtain friction welding with different interface surface geometries at two different speeds and to carry out tensile characteristic studies. The surface geometries welded include flat-flat, flat-tapered, tapered-tapered, concave-convex and convex-convex. A comparison of maximum load, breaking load and percentage elongation of different welded geometries has been realized through this project. The maximum load and breaking load were found to be highest for weld formed between rotating flat and stationary tapered at 500RPM and the values were 19.219kN and 14.28 kN respectively. The percentage elongation was found to be highest for weld formed between rotating flat and stationary flat at 500RPM and the value was 21.4%. Hence from the studies it is cleared that process parameter like “interfacing surface geometries” of weld specimens have strong influence on tensile characteristics of friction welded joints

Welding of high strength and low weight materials like Aluminium Alloys without any defects by conventional welding techniques is a major challenge in industries. Hence research on solid state welding techniques like Friction stir welding and Friction welding techniques have got much importance in joining of Aluminium alloys. However most of the industries are not changing conventional techniques as skilled workers are available on that area. Most common conventional welding techniques used for joining of Aluminium alloys are Gas welding and Arc welding. Friction welding is a solid-state welding process that generates heat through mechanical friction between a moving and a stationary component with the addition of a lateral force called “upset” to plast ically displace and fuse the materials. In this work, experimental study on tensile and micro structural characteristics of welded joints formed from conventional welding techniques and Rotary friction welding(suitable for weld specimens with circular cross section) has been carried out and the same were compared. The process parameters for arc welding used was 50-70 Amp reverse polarity DC and electrodes of 2.3mm diameter. In Gas welding, the parameters were oxy acetylene neural flame at 3200°C and 3mm electrodes . In the case of friction welding an axial pressure loading of 3Mpa with 5 MPa as upsetting pressure and 500 rpm were used to obtain good welded joints. Tensile characteristic studies of Arc welded joints and Gas welded joints showed 48% and 60 % variations respectively from the maximum load bearing characteristics of parent metal. In the case of friction welded joint, the variation was found to 46%. Micro structural evaluation of conventionally welded joints exhibited clear distinct zones of various weld regions. In the case of friction welded joint micro structural photographs showed comparable features both in parent metal and welded region. Thus the tensile characteristic study and microstructure evaluations proved that friction welded joints are good in both aspects compared to conventionally welded joints.

Das Gewindefurchen ist ein spanloses Fertigungsverfahren zur Herstellung von Innengewinden. Es bietet wesentliche Vorteile gegenüber der spanenden Innengewindeherstellung, wie z.B. keine Notwendigkeit zur Spanentsorgung, höhere Festigkeit der Gewindeflanken und eine erhöhte Prozessgeschwindigkeit. Um die Vorteile des Verfahrens unter wirtschaftlichen und technologischen Aspekten besser auszunutzen, bietet die Weiterentwicklung der Werkzeuggeometrie sowohl im makroskopischen als auch im mikroskopischen Bereich ein enormes Potential, welches nicht nur bezüglich der Standzeit bzw. Standmenge und Prozessgeschwindigkeit, sondern auch hinsichtlich der Qualität der erzeugten Gewinde erschlossen werden sollte. Durch die empirische Untersuchung der technischen und physikalischen Eigenschaften am Gewindefurcher sollen der Anformbereich und die Formkeilgeometrie in Abhängigkeit verschiedener Prozessparameter und Werkstoffe verbessert werden, um optimale Bearbeitungsergebnisse hinsichtlich der hergestellten Gewindefurchen und des auftretenden Verschleißes am Gewindefurcher bzw. Formkeils zu erreichen. Die Basis dieser Untersuchungen bildet ein neuartiger Modellversuch, bei dem modifizierte Gewindefurcher verwendet werden, die derart umgestaltet sind, dass von einem üblichen Gewindefurcher durch Umschleifen nur noch ein einzelner Gewindegang am Werkzeug verbleibt. Dadurch ist es möglich, in einer vergrößerten Vorbohrung mit einem Formkeil die einzelnen Umformstufen beim Gewindefurchen separat zu fertigen, die auftretenden Prozesskräfte während des Eingriffs in das Werkstück zu messen und das Bearbeitungsergebnis im Werkstück und den Verschleiß am Formkeil zu bewerten. Weiterhin wird eine rein theoretische Methode beschrieben, mit der die Berechnung der Umformkraft und darauf basierend der Furchmomente am Formkeil bzw. dem ganzen Gewindefurcher möglich ist. Durch die Kenntnis der berechneten Kräfte und Momente am einzelnen Formkeil bzw. dem Gewindefurcher kann bereits in der Konzeptionsphase eines Gewindefurchers eine Anpassung des Werkszeuges an die jeweiligen Bearbeitungsanforderungen durchgeführt werden, wodurch der Entwurf von Gewindefurchern wesentlich wirtschaftlicher realisierbar ist, als durch rein empirische Herangehensweisen.

The organic agricultural sector of Uganda is among the most developed in Africa in terms of its professional institutional network and high growth rates of number of certified farmers and land area. Smallholder farmers are certified organic through contract production for export companies using a group certification scheme (internal control system - ICS). The ICS is a viable and well-accepted tool to certify small-scale producers in developing countries all over the world. Difficulties in certification are still stated to be among the main constraints for Uganda’s organic sector development. Therefore, this paper reports a qualitative case study comprising 34 expert interviews in two organic fresh-produce export companies in central Uganda, aiming to explore the challenges which underlie organic certification with ICS. The study shows that farmers cannot be labelled as ‘organic by default’ but deliberately engage in organic production as a marketing strategy. The small quantities purchased by the organic companies lead to a difficult marketing situation for the farmers, causing production and infiltration risks on the farm level. These risks require increased control that challenges the companies organizationally. The risks and control needs are a reason to involve farmers in ICS procedures and innovatively adapt the ICS by means of a bypass around formal perspective restrictions. The paper discusses different perspectives on risks, risk control and certification.

This paper describes a simple method for internal camera calibration for computer vision. This method is based on tracking image features through a sequence of images while the camera undergoes pure rotation. The location of the features relative to the camera or to each other need not be known and therefore this method can be used both for laboratory calibration and for self calibration in autonomous robots working in unstructured environments. A second method of calibration is also presented. This method uses simple geometric objects such as spheres and straight lines to The camera parameters. Calibration is performed using both methods and the results compared.

The central challenge in face recognition lies in understanding the role different facial features play in our judgments of identity. Notable in this regard are the relative contributions of the internal (eyes, nose and mouth) and external (hair and jaw-line) features. Past studies that have investigated this issue have typically used high-resolution images or good-quality line drawings as facial stimuli. The results obtained are therefore most relevant for understanding the identification of faces at close range. However, given that real-world viewing conditions are rarely optimal, it is also important to know how image degradations, such as loss of resolution caused by large viewing distances, influence our ability to use internal and external features. Here, we report experiments designed to address this issue. Our data characterize how the relative contributions of internal and external features change as a function of image resolution. While we replicated results of previous studies that have shown internal features of familiar faces to be more useful for recognition than external features at high resolution, we found that the two feature sets reverse in importance as resolution decreases. These results suggest that the visual system uses a highly non-linear cue-fusion strategy in combining internal and external features along the dimension of image resolution and that the configural cues that relate the two feature sets play an important role in judgments of facial identity.

Pocos estudios han evaluado el tratamiento de las fracturas desplazadas de cuello femoral en pacientes menores de 65 años de edad, y no han sido claramente definidos los factores de riesgo para necrosis avascular o no-unión dentro de este rango de edad. Para determinar los factores asociados a la necrosis avascular de la cabeza femoral (AVN) y no-unión en pacientes menores de 65 años de edad con fracturas desplazadas del cuello femoral tratados con reducción y fijación interna, se realizó un estudio retrospectivo de 29 fracturas desplazadas del cuello femoral en 29 pacientes consecutivos tratados en una sola institución. La influencia de la edad, la energía del trauma, tipo de reducción, y el tiempo entre la fractura y el tratamiento en desarrollo de la AVN y no-unión fueron evaluados. Los pacientes que desarrollaron NAV fueron significativamente mayores y sufrieron un trauma de más baja energía que en los casos sin AVN. Ninguna variable fue asociada con la no-unión. La regresión logística determinó que sólo la edad se asoció de forma independiente a NAV. La edad es un buen predictor para el desarrollo de NAV, con un C-estadístico de 0.861, y un mejor corte-determinado en 53,5 años. Conclusión: Los pacientes de entre 53,5 y 65 años presentan un riesgo más alto de NAV. La artroplastia primaria se debe considerar en este subgrupo.

El artículo analiza el fenómeno del desplazamiento forzado alrededor del mundo, así como la génesis del mandato de las Naciones Unidas para luchar contra este problema. Examina las conclusiones clave del estudio de la ONU que encontró que las normas existentes del derecho internacional tienen varios vacíos y zonas grises relativos a las necesidades de los desplazados internos. También analiza los orígenes y el contenido de los principios guía del desplazamiento interno, así como el estatus normativo de los mismos. Así mismo, sugiere que, a pesar de no ser vinculante para los Estados, estos principios guía se convirtieron en la expresión más autorizada de los estándares mínimos aplicables a los desplazados internos como consecuencia de la práctica estatal, es decir, que la mayoría de estos principios se volverán costumbre internacional. El artículo también señala la necesidad de que haya una implementación efectiva en el derecho interno de estos principios guía; examina cómo las autoridades gubernamentales, la Corte Constitucional y la sociedad civil en Colombia, así como las entidades intergubernamentales, respondieron a la crisis del desplazamiento interno en el país. Observando el marco legal colombiano en desplazamiento interno, el artículo concluye que el Estado no ha tomado las medidas necesarias requeridas para prevenir futuros desplazamientos o para asegurar una protección y asistencia efectivas para resolver las necesidades de los desplazados internos.

In order to present an estimation of the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) to higher education in Colombia we take advantage of the methodological approach provided by Heckman, Lochner and Todd (2005). Trying to overcome the criticism that surrounds interpretations of the education coefficient of Mincer equations as being the rate of return to investments in education we develop a more structured approach of estimation, which controls for selection bias, includes more accurate measures of labor income and the role of education costs and income taxes. Our results implied a lower rate of return than the ones found in the Colombian literature and show that the Internal Rate of Return for higher education in Colombia lies somewhere between 0.074 and 0.128. The results vary according to the year analyzed and individual’s gender. This last result reinforces considerations regarding gender discrimination in the Colombian labor market.

The relevance of the fragment relaxation energy term and the effect of the basis set superposition error on the geometry of the BF3⋯NH3 and C2H4⋯SO2 van der Waals dimers have been analyzed. Second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory calculations with the d95(d,p) basis set have been used to calculate the counterpoise-corrected barrier height for the internal rotations. These barriers have been obtained by relocating the stationary points on the counterpoise-corrected potential energy surface of the processes involved. The fragment relaxation energy can have a large influence on both the intermolecular parameters and barrier height. The counterpoise correction has proved to be important for these systems

Topological indices have been applied to build QSAR models for a set of 20 antimalarial cyclic peroxy cetals. In order to evaluate the reliability of the proposed linear models leave-n-out and Internal Test Sets (ITS) approaches have been considered. The proposed procedure resulted in a robust and consensued prediction equation and here it is shown why it is superior to the employed standard cross-validation algorithms involving multilinear regression models
