Kenosis as a Spirituality and an Ethic: The Church and Secularity
No full textIn the latter half of the twentieth century, the kenotic conversation made a pronounced shift from ontological speculation about the Incarnation of Christ to discussion about kenosis as a metaphor for God’s self-emptying existence. The kenosis of God is manifest through the crucified Christ who is the standard for authentic human, Spirit-enlivened life.
In Western secular culture, where a primary question centres on what it means to be the most genuine version of one’s self, kenosis offers an optimal way for the church to experience, articulate and embody a faithful and relevant response. David Tracy’s hermeneutic of mutually critical correlation offers a method for church-secular dialogue which assumes everybody is asking questions and seeking answers. People must listen to each other, not to the end of achieving a fictitious sociological neutrality, rather with the goal of intelligently upholding distinct points of view.
To the question of authentic humanity, contemporary people have come up with some answers. Charles Taylor describes key ways that Western people understand genuine humanity in a “secularity three” culture of “authenticity.” Because the contemporary Western church is grounded in the same philosophical and historical milieu as the wider society, the church and culture are likely to view the situation and solutions in similar categories, providing common ground for conversation.
Kenosis as a Christian spirituality and ethic, discovered through the work of German Reformed theologian Jürgen Moltmann, British Anglican W.H. Vanstone, and American Catholic Lucien Richard, offers a way for Christians to raise the conversation about genuine humanity such that it correlates with, expands on and even transforms common understandings
Laminar-turbulent transition of a non-Newtonian fluid flow
No full textTransition from laminar to turbulent flow of non-Newtonian fluids is investigated using velocimetry data. These data are obtained by applying particle image velocimetry to images obtained through ultrasound imaging (echography). This yielded the observation of intermittent structures (puffs and slugs) that are formed during transition. Post its observation, transition is characterized using the friction factor curves and turbulence intensity. Further, a number of models used to predict transition are assessed. This showed the Reynolds number based model by Slatter and the stability parameter based model by Hanks to be most suitable for non-Newtonian fluids with yield stress and low behaviour index.Sanitary EngineeringMulti Phase System

Pseudonyms by Any Other Name
No full textIssue 7 of Zed was guest edited by Siân Cook and Teal Triggs of the Women's Design Research Unit (WD+RU). Contributors were invited to investigate the theme of 'Public and Private'. Contributions were divided into four themes: navigating/mapping; hiding/revealing; ritual/sexualisation and culture/boundaries.
My visual essay was aligned to the hiding/revealing theme where the private identity of famous names is revealed through a playful typographic list.
The accompanying prose essay explores why and how pseudonyms are employed. I highlighted the reason why the typographer Beatrice Warde – author of The Crystal Goblet, Sixteen Essays on Typography – used the pseudonym Paul Beaujon to publish an article about the Garamond types in The Fleuron. As a female author in the 1920s it would have been unlikely her article would have been published under her own name within the male-dominated trades of printing and typography

Explosibility of Coarse Biomass Powders
No full textPulverised biomass is being used in electric power generation, either co-fired with coal or increasingly as 100% biomass. However, there is minimal information in the literature on the mechanism of flame propagation in pulverised biomass. In the present work the explosion technique was used to obtain fundamental information on the rate of flame propagation, the lean limits of flame propagation and related explosion characteristics of coarse biomass.
A large part of this research involved the modification of the ISO 1m3 method to enable it to be used with coarse fibrous biomass powders. The technique that worked was to follow the Hartmann method and place the dust inside the vessel using a hemispherical bowl and then disperse this dust with a blast of air. This was demonstrated to work with coarse woody biomass and the calibration was established using cornflour and referenced to the standard method.
The MEC and Kst for dusts were shown to have a dependence on the particle size. However, very coarse particles still propagated a flame, with no evidence that this was due to preferentially burning of the finer particles. Biomass particles of 300-500µm were shown to be flammable, i.e. as large as kerosene mist and large than coal particles will propagate a flame. For coarse woody biomass the Kst values were very low <20 bar m/s in many cases, but the peak pressure was high and hence the explosion would destroy biomass handling plant.
This work found that the unburnt material was compressed into a layer against the wall of the vessel ahead of the flame front, thus preventing it from interacting with the flame front. It was postulated that large particles lagged the main flame due to interaction with the explosion induced wind. This led to large particles being pyrolysed behind the flame front and then to arrive last at the wall and so appear as on outer pyrolysed layer on the material compressed against the wall. This explanation also enabled an explanation to be given for the very rich mixtures that could burn with dusts than could not burn if the material was a gas
Magnetoresistive Sensors for the Condition Monitoring of High-frequency Spindles
No full textAbstractThe magnetoresistive (MR) sensing principle was first applied industrially in the read-heads of hard disc drives. However, in the past decade the MR effect has also been used successfully for sensors to measure position, current and magnetic fields. MR sensors offer a number of benefits compared to other technologies used for condition monitoring of machine spindles. They are more compact and offer a higher bandwidth than inductive or capacitive sensors. They are more robust than optical encoders, being largely insusceptible to oil, water and other contaminants [1]. MR sensors can be applied over a wider temperature range and with less demanding assembly tolerances. This makes them particularly well suited to applications with limited available space and demanding operating conditions, as is often the case in machine tool sensing applications. This paper explains the basics of magnetoresistive sensor technology and outlines the advantages compared to other sensor principles. Furthermore the results of a joint R&D project between Sensitec GmbH and the PTW Institute of the Technical University Darmstadt, funded by the Arbeitsgemeinschaft industrieller Forschungsvereinigungen “Otto von Guericke e.V. (AiF), to investigate the application of MR sensors to the condition monitoring of high-frequency air spindles will be described [2]. Position sensors based on the giant magnetoresistive (GMR) effect have been specially adapted to measure directly the radial and axial displacement of the spindle shaft. Importantly only minor modifications have been made to the spindle shaft to enable this measurement and the sensors are completely integrated within the spindle housing. Tests demonstrate that this solution can resolve axial and radial displacements of less than 0.5μm with high repeatability under typical operating conditions
