Get PDFThis is a collection of historical and cultural research works about the vaHlengwe people of Zimbabwe, created by Happyson Chauke before his untimely death by a hit and run driver in 2009. It was compiled by his friend Tillman Houser, who spent 35 years as a missionary to Zimbabwe under the Free Methodist Church. The bulk of the collection is comprised of the book entitled: The miracle of Lundi Mission: lest we forget.https://place.asburyseminary.edu/ecommonsatsdigitalresources/1614/thumbnail.jp

This study entitled "An analysis of the concept "poetic justice" in eight selected Xitsonga novels" is a critical thematic analysis of eight selected Xitsonga novels. The study will critically examine different perspectives on poetic justice in the eight selected novels, namely; Nsuku wa mina by Chauke WR, Ndzi ta nwi kuma by Chauke W R, N'waninginingi ma ka tindleve by Tshuketana FA, A hi fambe m'nghaname by Tshuketana FA, Ndzi ngo tinciki!!! by Tshuketana FA, Makumu ya vutomi byebyo by M'yeni EMC, Vutomi I vhilwa by Mgiba NR and I vutomi by Lubisi CM. The principal objective of this research is to demonstrate that poetic justice is increasingly acknowledged in literature since it depicts that in all cultures virtue and vice are eventually rewarded and punished appropriately. Yet there are discrepancies and variations in the implementation of poetic justice. Three analytical methods will be used in this study, to analyse poetic justice in the eight selected novels, namely; literary criticism comparative method and textual analysis. A framework for analysing key features of poetic justice will be used to compare the features of poetic justice represented in the eight novels of the study. This study strives to produce credible findings which reflect authentic poetic justice in human existence
Fly ash resistivity profiling for South African coal fired power stations
Get PDFParticulate emission is a major problem in industrial processes, mainly power plants that make use of coal as a primary
source of energy. Stringent emissions limits, set by government organisations requires industries to conform to these limits to ensure
that air quality is sustained and with minimum pollutant present. Electrostatic precipitators are typically used to filter and collect these
particulate emissions. Fly ash resistivity is a primary parameter in the collection of particulate emissions, and there is a resistivity range
at which electrostatic precipitator collection is most efficient and anything outside this range limits, their operation. High resistivity ash
results in back-corona discharge, whilst low resistivity results in particle re-entrainment into the flue gas stream. The purpose of this
paper is to investigate and obtain a fly ash resistivity profile for existing power plants in South Africa. Ash samples obtained from
power plants are, tested making use of an ash-resistivity test oven, in accordance with IEEE Standard 548-1984. This paper discusses
obtained experimental results, to determine the resistivity profile at which South African power plant electrostatic precipitators operate.
The electrical efficiency of the electrostatic precipitator system is evaluated based on the obtained resistivity profile

Effect of high frequency power supplies on the electrostatic precipitator collection efficiency as compared to conventional transformer rectifiers
Get PDFParticulate emission is a major problem in industrial
processes, caused mainly by power plants that make use of
coal as a primary source of energy. Stringent emissions limits,
set by government organisations requires industries to
conform to these limits to ensure that air quality is sustained
and within minimum pollutant limits. Electrostatic
precipitators (ESP) are, implemented as the main form of dust
burden collection. In recent years, power stations of the
national electricity supplier (Eskom) have struggled to
maintain particulate emissions below legislation limits,
resulting in power stations having to de-load and reduce
power generation production. A pilot project was initiated to
investigate what the effects of new high frequency power
supplies will be on the ESP collection efficiency. This paper
presents the results obtained from the implemented pilot
project, whereby 16 new high frequency power supplies
(HFPS) were installed in a 28 field ESP plan
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
