Since 1997 the world has been facing the threat of a human influenza pandemic that may be caused by an avian virus and the poultry industry around the globe has been grappling with the highly pathogenic strain of avian influenza H5N1, or in more informal terms bird flu. The UK poultry industry has lived with and through this threat and its consequences since 2005. This study investigates knowledge claims about health, hygiene and biosecurity as tools to ward off the threat from this virus. It takes a semi-ethnographic and discourse analytic approach to analyse a small corpus of semi-structured interviews carried out in the wake of one of the most publicised outbreaks of H5N1 in Suffolk in 2007. It reveals that claims about what best to do to protect flocks against the risk of disease are divided along lines imposed on the one hand by the structure of the industry and on the other by more 'tribal' lines drawn by knowledge and belief systems about purity and dirt, health and hygiene.

Four years after the completion of the Human Genome Project, the US National Institutes for Health launched the Human Microbiome Project on 19 December 2007. Using metaphor analysis, this article investigates reporting in English-language newspapers on advances in microbiomics from 2003 onwards, when the word “microbiome” was first used. This research was said to open up a “new frontier” and was conceived as a “second human genome project”, this time focusing on the genomes of microbes that inhabit and populate humans rather than focusing on the human genome itself. The language used by scientists and by the journalists who reported on their research employed a type of metaphorical framing that was very different from the hyperbole surrounding the decipherment of the “book of life”. Whereas during the HGP genomic successes had been mainly framed as being based on a unidirectional process of reading off information from a passive genetic or genomic entity, the language employed to discuss advances in microbiomics frames genes, genomes and life in much more active and dynamic ways.

En este trabajo se exponen de forma abreviada los resultados de una investigación desarrollada por los autores que parte de la determinación de las insuficiencias que se presentan en el estudio de algunos temas de la matemática superior como son los dominios numéricos y las series numéricas, se precisa que una de las causas que inciden en esta situación es que las operaciones conceptuales generalización—restricción que ofrece la lógica no siempre se adecuan totalmente a lo que en matemática se denomina como tal y a la no existencia de un procedimiento metodológico que oriente al profesor el trabajo con estas operaciones. Para resolver estas deficiencias se definen las operaciones generalización y restricción de conceptos de una forma más general y aplicable al estudio de la matemática y se propone un procedimiento para su aplicación, se ejemplifica con el estudio de los dominios numéricos y las series numéricas y se someten los resultados a un grupo de expertos que ofrecen una valoración positiva de la investigación.

El cálculo numérico, en las carreras químicas tiene diversos usos; en particular en el presente trabajo nos concentraremos en la resolución de ecuaciones algebraicas. Esta elección se fundamenta en la gran aplicabilidad del tema a la determinación del pH en ciertas soluciones de ácidos débiles y sus respectivas sales. De hecho, cuando los estudiantes intentan aplicar los métodos numéricos para la determinación de un pH en el laboratorio de Química Analítica, lo que obtienen, en general, no es correcto, y frecuentemente ni siquiera tiene sentido químico. En este tipo de problemas, la visualización y experimentación tiene un papel fundamental en la comprensión, la resolución y principalmente, en el logro de aprendizajes significativos. Esta forma de trabajo requiere de cierto equipamiento informático y de un software apropiado. En este artículo se analiza el problema mencionado, se presentan algunos resultados y se formulan conclusiones.

Whole body vibration treatment is a non-pharmacological intervention intended to stimulate muscular response and increase bone mineral density, particularly for postmenopausal women. The literature related to this topic is controversial, heterogeneous, and unclear despite the prospect of a major clinical effect. The aim of this study was to identify and systematically review the literature to assess the effect of whole body vibration treatments on bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women with a specific focus on the experimental factors that influence the stimulus. Nine studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria, including 527 postmenopausal women and different vibration delivery designs. Cumulative dose, amplitudes and frequency of treatments as well as subject posture during treatment vary widely among studies. Some of the studies included an associated exercise training regime. Both randomized and controlled clinical trials were included. Whole body vibration was shown to produce significant BMD improvements on the hip and spine when compared to no intervention. Conversely, treatment associated with exercise training resulted in negligible outcomes when compared to exercise training or to placebo. Moreover, side-alternating platforms were more effective in improving BMD values than synchronous platforms and mechanical oscillations of magnitude higher than 3 g and/or frequency lower than 25 Hz were also found to be effective. Treatments with a cumulative dose over 1000 minutes in the follow-up period were correlated to positive outcomes. Our conclusion is that whole body vibration treatments in elderly women can reduce BMD decline.However, many factors (e.g. amplitude, frequency and subject posture) affect the capacity of the vibrations to propagate to the target site; the adequate level of stimulation required to produce these effects has not yet been defined. Further biomechanical analyses to predict the propagation of the vibration waves along the body and assess the stimulation levels are required.

L’oeuvre de Pascal Quignard présente dans son ensemble beaucoup d’étrangeté, par ses contours génériques flous et imprécis, par sa vaste érudition, et par les thèmes traités. Nous nous attachons ici à un motif précis : la mue de la voix masculine à l’adolescence. Cette transformation de la voix du jeune garçon, qui s’accompagne d’une inévitable transformation sexuelle, engendre chez certains un profond traumatisme. De La Leçon de musique à Tous les matins du monde, nous étudierons les conséquences de ce phénomène spontané chez les êtres naturellement doués pour le chant et la musique. Nous en suivrons par la suite les différents linéaments narratifs et poétiques. Finalement, nous découvrirons dans les méandres de l’oeuvre quignardienne quelques échos très personnels, relatifs à l’auteur.

The duckweed Lemna valdiviana is commonly founded colonizing small shallow waters (lakes on the lowland in south Brazil. This organism may have been affected by herbicide input into lakes from aerial application and/or drainage office paddy fields. Clomazone (2- (2-chlorophenyl) methyl-4.4-dimethyl-3-isoxazolidinone) is one of the herbicides more fiequentely used as post-emergence in rice paddies. For this work assays were carried as EC50(96h) semi-statics with aseptic culture. The sterile fronds were abtained from material harvest on the paddy fields, and the concentration of Clomazone ranged from 14.0 to 229.0 mg/l. two procedures were considered: diluted in water and sprayed applicated Clomazone. The observed phytotoxic effects were evaluated by growth rate (kt), duplication time (Td), frond yield, plant yield, mortality, chlorophyll a and b and protochlorophyll concentration. The EC50 values obtained to sprayed Clomazone (Kt=31.7; Td=31.9) were significantly small than to diluted Clomazone (Kt=46.4; td=47.3). These dadta suggest that aerial route is more hazardous than diluted procedure. Presence of chlorotic, necrotic, abnormal and died frond were common at the 114.0 and 229.0 mg/l treatment. Recuperation test corroborated the evidence that the sprayed procedure were more deleterious and L. valdiviana doesn't recovery his reproductive ability at the 114.0 and 229.0 mg/l treatment.

Il Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) è una collaborazione internazionale costituita da decine di centri di calcolo distribuiti globalmente, la cui missione consiste nell'elaborazione delle grandi quantità di dati prodotti dai maggiori esperimenti di Fisica delle Alte Energie, in particolare quelli al CERN di Ginevra. Uno di questi centri di calcolo è ospitato presso il CNAF dell'Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare a Bologna, che contribuisce anche allo sviluppo di middleware per la gestione dell'infrastruttura. Molti componenti di tale middleware, che hanno funzionalità e scopi diversi, richiedono un servizio di autorizzazione versatile e compatibile con i meccanismi di autenticazione attualmente in uso, basati su token OAuth 2.0 e su certificati VOMS Proxy. In questa tesi si analizzerà l'architettura e l'implementazione di un proof-of-concept di un sistema di autorizzazione che soddisfi queste necessità, enfatizzando l'integrazione delle tecniche di autenticazione citate. Per dimostrare la sua versatilità, verrà illustrato il processo di interfacciamento con un componente middleware attualmente in sviluppo al CNAF. Il risultato finale ottenuto è un sistema che rispetta i vincoli richiesti e si integra facilmente con servizi eterogenei.

Synchronous motors are used mainly in large drives, for example in ship propulsion systems and in steel factories' rolling mills because of their high efficiency, high overload capacity and good performance in the field weakening range. This, however, requires an extremely good torque control system. A fast torque response and a torque accuracy are basic requirements for such a drive. For large power, high dynamic performance drives the commonly known principle of field oriented vector control has been used solely hitherto, but nowadays it is not the only way to implement such a drive. A new control method Direct Torque Control (DTC) has also emerged. The performance of such a high quality torque control as DTC in dynamically demanding industrial applications is mainly based on the accurate estimate of the various flux linkages' space vectors. Nowadays industrial motor control systems are real time applications with restricted calculation capacity. At the same time the control system requires a simple, fast calculable and reasonably accurate motor model. In this work a method to handle these problems in a Direct Torque Controlled (DTC) salient pole synchronous motor drive is proposed. A motor model which combines the induction law based "voltage model" and motor inductance parameters based "current model" is presented. The voltage model operates as a main model and is calculated at a very fast sampling rate (for example 40 kHz). The stator flux linkage calculated via integration from the stator voltages is corrected using the stator flux linkage computed from the current model. The current model acts as a supervisor that prevents only the motor stator flux linkage from drifting erroneous during longer time intervals. At very low speeds the role of the current model is emphasised but, nevertheless, the voltage model always stays the main model. At higher speeds the function of the current model correction is to act as a stabiliser of the control system. The current model contains a set of inductance parameters which must be known. The validation of the current model in steady state is not self evident. It depends on the accuracy of the saturated value of the inductances. Parameter measurement of the motor model where the supply inverter is used as a measurement signal generator is presented. This so called identification run can be performed prior to delivery or during drive commissioning. A derivation method for the inductance models used for the representation of the saturation effects is proposed. The performance of the electrically excited synchronous motor supplied with the DTC inverter is proven with experimental results. It is shown that it is possible to obtain a good static accuracy of the DTC's torque controller for an electrically excited synchronous motor. The dynamic response is fast and a new operation point is achieved without oscillation. The operation is stable throughout the speed range. The modelling of the magnetising inductance saturation is essential and cross saturation has to be considered as well. The effect of cross saturation is very significant. A DTC inverter can be used as a measuring equipment and the parameters needed for the motor model can be defined by the inverter itself. The main advantage is that the parameters defined are measured in similar magnetic operation conditions and no disagreement between the parameters will exist. The inductance models generated are adequate to meet the requirements of dynamically demanding drives.

The objective of this master thesis is to test according to hoisting requirements, a servo drive system and compare its performance with the performance of a drive equipped with a vector controlled frequency converter. Both systems utilize closed-loop vector control based on PCL program control. In order to compare the results of tests both systems were connected to the same motor driving a variable speed electrical chain hoist. Tests were based on requirements to both systems. As requirements of tests zero speed operation, operation in field weakening, positioning accuracy and smoothness of motion are taken into consideration. Both systems demonstrate quite similar performance and meet the requirements. Servo drive system demonstrates a high positioning accuracy and dynamic performance. Frequency converter is not able to provide the same positioning accuracy and dynamic performance as servo drive.

We present direct-drive target design studies for the laser mégajoule using two distinct initial aspect ratios (A = 34 and A = 5). Laser pulse shapes are optimized by a random walk method and drive power variations are used to cover a wide variety of implosion velocities between 260 km/s and 365 km/s. For selected implosion velocities and for each initial aspect ratio, scaled-target families are built in order to find self-ignition threshold. High-gain shock ignition is also investigated in the context of Laser MégaJoule for marginally igniting targets below their own self-ignition threshold.

This thesis describes work completed on the application of H controller synthesis to the design of controllers for single axis high speed independent drive design examples. H controller synthesis was used in a single controller format and in a self-tuning regulator, a type of adaptive controller. Three types of industrial design examples were attempted using H controller synthesis, both in simulation and on a Drives Test Facility at Aston University. The results were benchmarked against a Proportional, Integral and Derivative (PID) with velocity feedforward controller (VFF), the industrial standard for this application. An analysis of the differences between a H and PID with VFF controller was completed. A direct-form H controller was determined for a limited class of weighting function and plants which shows the relationship between the weighting function, nominal plant and the controller parameters. The direct-form controller was utilised in two ways. Firstly it allowed the production of simple guidelines for the industrial design of H controllers. Secondly it was used as the controller modifier in a self-tuning regulator (STR). The STR had a controller modification time (including nominal model parameter estimation) of 8ms. A Set-Point Gain Scheduling (SPGS) controller was developed and applied to an industrial design example. The applicability of each control strategy, PID with VFF, H, SPGS and STR, was investigated and a set of general guidelines for their use was determined. All controllers developed were implemented using standard industrial equipment.
