    El discurso de J.M. Aznar antes y después del 11 M: las marcas de primera persona en la entrevista política

    No full text
    This paper analyses pragmatic and discoursive functions that first person grammatical marks take in political discourse. The aim of this study is to compare the use of first person marks (verbal terminations, personal pronouns and possessives) in Aznar\u27s discourse before and after 11-M attempts. Our corpus consists of two interviews to Aznar for TeleCinco TV channel. The first one was held on March 2003, before Irak\u27s war; the second one was held on March 2004, some days after 11-M and General Elections. The analysis is twofold: the kind of questions and the kind of first person marks. Firstly, questions that the journalist asks are classified taking to account the conflictivity level. Secondly, first person marks are analysed considering the extratextual reference. The paper demonstrates that there is a relation between grammar and discourse and shows the union between language and society. In fact, the use of these marks is conditioned by politics context.Este artículo analiza la función pragmático-discursiva de las marcas de primera persona en el discurso político. El objetivo del trabajo es comparar el uso de estas marcas en el discurso de J.M. Aznar antes y después de los atentados del 11M. Nuestro corpus está formado por dos entrevistas realizadas a Aznar por la cadena de televisión TeleCinco. La primera tuvo lugar en marzo de 2003, poco antes de la guerra de Irak; la segunda se llevó a cabo en marzo de 2004, unos días después de los atentados del 11M y de las Elecciones Generales. El estudio se realiza en dos niveles: por una parte, se clasifican las preguntas efectuadas por el entrevistador según el grado de conflictividad que presentan; por otra, se analizan las marcas de primera persona teniendo en cuenta el referente extratextual; finalmente se interrelacionan ambos aspectos. El trabajo muestra que el uso de las marcas de primera persona en los textos analizados está condicionado por el contexto político en que se desarrollan. Así, a la vez que se pone de manifiesto la relación entre gramática y discurso, se evidencia la conexión entre lenguaje y sociedad

    Grupos empresariales, marco institucional y desarrollo económico en España en el siglo XX: los negocios de la familia Aznar, 1937-1983

    No full text
    Editada en la Fundación Empresa PúblicaEste trabajo ofrece los primeros resultados de un proyecto de investigación que intenta analizar las relaciones entre los grupos empresariales, el marco institucional y el desarrollo económico en España en el siglo XX a partir de una perspectiva microeconómica, un análisis histórico-institucional comparado y unas fuentes de naturaleza privada. A partir del estudio de los negocios de la familia Aznar desde 1937, fecha en la que se hace con el control de las empresas del anterior grupo Sota y Aznar, hasta 1983, cuando se produce la quiebra de la empresa más importante del grupo, la Naviera Aznar, se hará hincapié, sobre todo, en las consecuencias que una organización industrial basada en grupos empresariales y un marco institucional caracterizado por el intervencionismo extremo y la discrecionalidad del Estado tuvo sobre las capacidades y la competitividad de las empresas y las industrias y, por extensión, sobre el modelo de desarrollo económico de España durante el franquismo y la transición.This article shows the first results of a research project that attempts to analyse the relations between the business groups, the institutional framework and the economic development in 20th century Spain. It employs a microeconomic perspective, a historical-institutional analysis and private archival sources. The article focuses on the businesses of the Aznar family from 1937 (when they took over the management of the firms that formerly belonged to the Sota and Aznar group) to 1983 (when Naviera Aznar, the most important firm of the group, broke out and ceased business). Out of this empirical evidence, the article tries to underline the consequences that an industrial organization based on business groups and on an institutional framework characterized by the State's extreme interventionism and discretionality had on the capabilities and the competitiveness of Spanish firms and industries, and, by extension, on the economic development of Spain during the Franco's regime and the first Governments of the transition to democracy.Publicad

    Simulation of thermal plant optimization and hydraulic aspects of thermal distribution loops for large campuses

    No full text
    Following an introduction, the author describes Texas A&M University and its utilities system. After that, the author presents how to construct simulation models for chilled water and heating hot water distribution systems. The simulation model was used in a $2.3 million Ross Street chilled water pipe replacement project at Texas A&M University. A second project conducted at the University of Texas at San Antonio was used as an example to demonstrate how to identify and design an optimal distribution system by using a simulation model. The author found that the minor losses of these closed loop thermal distribution systems are significantly higher than potable water distribution systems. In the second part of the report, the author presents the latest development of software called the Plant Optimization Program, which can simulate cogeneration plant operation, estimate its operation cost and provide optimized operation suggestions. The author also developed detailed simulation models for a gas turbine and heat recovery steam generator and identified significant potential savings. Finally, the author also used a steam turbine as an example to present a multi-regression method on constructing simulation models by using basic statistics and optimization algorithms. This report presents a survey of the author??s working experience at the Energy Systems Laboratory (ESL) at Texas A&M University during the period of January 2002 through March 2004. The purpose of the above work was to allow the author to become familiar with the practice of engineering. The result is that the author knows how to complete a project from start to finish and understands how both technical and nontechnical aspects of a project need to be considered in order to ensure a quality deliverable and bring a project to successful completion. This report concludes that the objectives of the internship were successfully accomplished and that the requirements for the degree of Degree of Engineering have been satisfied

    No full text
    Includes author's vita"Submitted to the College of Engineering of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Engineering."Includes bibliographical referencesA review of the author's internship experience with CH���M HILL, Inc. during the period September 1975 through May 1976 is presented. During this nine month internship the author worked as an Engineer II in the Industrial Processes discipline of this large consulting engineering firm... The author's prime responsibility was as one of three lead design engineers on the design of a large wastewater treatment facility for a pulp mill in Hoquiam, Washington owned by ITT Rayonier Inc. The work generally consisted of the design of individual treatment units and associated piping and pumping. The purpose of the project was to provide wastewater treatment capabilities that would satisfy the effluent limitations (standards) imposed upon the mill by the State of Washington Department of Ecology and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The author's assignment also entailed necessary interaction with the project manager and other CH���M HILL design engineers and support staff members, the client's representatives, and representatives of two other consulting engineering firms working on the project. Thus, the internship position at CH���M HILL provided considerable experience coordinating the author's work with the work of other engineers, guiding the design and administrative efforts of a support staff, and interacting regularly with the client and other consulting firms. This broad exposure to a variety of engineering and organizational problems provided a valuable educational experience

    "Submitted to the College of Engineering of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Engineering."Includes vita (leaf 91)Includes bibliographical references (leaf 57)This report discusses the author's engineering experience at the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI), Texas A&M University from March 1974 through July 1977. A report of this experience plus twelve additional hours of academic course work were substituted for an internship according to requirements established by the College of Engineering. Although the author could not retroactively establish objectives of the type associated with a typical internship, the work experience gained could be related to the two general objectives of an intership: 1. To demonstrate an identifiable contribution to the organization in which the intern served, and 2. To enable the intern to become aware of the non-technical aspects of working as an engineer in a non-academic environment. While a member of the Texas Transportation Institute staff, the author worked on a number of projects in the areas of highway traffic engineering research and the preparation of continuing education courses for transportation engineering officials. These assignments were contained within the Urban Transportation Systems Division of TTI. This report delineates the author's contribution to four particular projects and discusses the technical as well as non-technical experience gained from each. Having been exposed to more engineering situations than many of the other Doctor of Engineering students, the author has already formulated some rather specific milestones for the future. The Doctor of Engineering program is discussed in conjunction with its potential for helping the author attain these career goals and objectives. Also, some thoughts are presented regarding the Doctor of Engineering as a viable alternative to the Ph.D. in preparing for a career in engineering higher education

    The long-wavelength view of GG Tau A: rocks in the ring world

    No full text
    We present the first detection of GG Tau A at centimetre wavelengths, made with the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager Large Array at a frequency of 16 GHz (λ = 1.8 cm). The source is detected at >6 σrms with an integrated flux density of S16GHz = 249 ± 45 µJy. We use these new centimetre-wave data, in conjunction with additional measurements compiled from the literature, to investigate the long-wavelength tail of the dust emission from this unusual protoplanetary system. We use an MCMC-based method to determine maximum likelihood parameters for a simple parametric spectral model and consider the opacity and mass of the dust contributing to the microwave emission. We derive a dust mass of Md ~ 0.1 Msun, constrain the dimensions of the emitting region and find that the opacity index at λ > 7 mm is less than unity, implying a contribution to the dust population from grains exceeding ~4 cm in size. We suggest that this indicates coagulation within the GG Tau A system has proceeded to the point where dust grains have grown to the size of small rocks with dimensions of a few centimetres. Considering the relatively young age of the GG Tau association in combination with the low derived disc mass, we suggest that this system may provide a useful test case for rapid core accretion planet formation models
