Manipulating Language: Metaphors in the Political Discourse of Georgios Papadopoulos (1967-1973)
No full textThe manipulation of language to achieve one’s aims leads us to the important
assertion that through speech politicians do indeed aim at achieving
a given outcome from a society. One way they achieve this is by painting
a picture through metaphor of that society in the present, as well as
in the past and the future. The examination of metaphor in the political
discourse of Georgios Papadopoulos and the analysis of it is an attempt
to determine how the manipulation of such rhetoric can be effective, if
at all, in a given social, historical and political context

Gravitational-wave imprints of compact and galactic-scale environments in extreme-mass-ratio binaries
No full textCircumambient and galactic-scale environments are intermittently present
around black holes that reside in active galactic nuclei. As supermassive black
holes impart energy on their host galaxy, so the galactic environment affects
the dynamics of solar-mass objects around black holes and the gravitational
waves emitted from non-vacuum asymmetric binaries. Only recently an exact
general-relativistic solution has been found that describes a Schwarzschild
black hole immersed in a dark matter halo of the Hernquist type. We perform an
extensive analysis of generic geodesics delving in such non-vacuum spacetimes
and compare our results with those obtained in Schwarzschild, as well as
calculate their gravitational-wave emission. Our findings indicate that the
radial and polar oscillation frequency ratios descend deeper into the strong
gravity region as the compactness of the halo increases. This translates to a
redshift of non-vacuum geodesics and their resulting waveforms with respect to
the vacuum ones. We calculate the overlap between waveforms resulting from
Schwarzschild and non-vacuum geometries and find that it decreases as the halo
compactness grows, meaning that dark matter environments should be
distinguishable by space-borne detectors. For compact environments, we find
that the apsidal precession is strongly affected due to the gravitational pull
of dark matter; the orbit's axis can rotate in the opposite direction as that
of the orbital motion, leading to a retrograde precession drift that depends on
the halo mass, as opposed to the typical prograde precession transpiring in
galactic-scale environments. Gravitational waves in retrograde-to-prograde
alterations demonstrate transient frequency phenomena around critical
non-precessing turning points, thus they may serve as `smoking guns' for the
presence of compact dark matter environments around supermassive black holes.Comment: 19 pages, 10 figures, revisions regarding detectability and addition

Asymptotically optimal inspection planning using systems with differential constraints
No full textThis paper proposes a new inspection planning algorithm, called Random Inspection Tree Algorithm (RITA). Given a perfect model of a structure, sensor specifications, robot's dynamics, and an initial configuration of a robot, RITA computes the optimal inspection trajectory that observes all points on the structure. Many inspection planning algorithms have been proposed, most of them consist of two sequential steps. In the first step, they compute a small set of observation points such that each point on the structure is visible. In the second step, they compute the shortest trajectory to visit all observation points at least once. The robot's kinematic and dynamic constraints are taken into account only in the second step. Thus, when the robot has differential constraints and operates in cluttered environments, the observation points may be difficult or even infeasible to reach. To alleviate this difficulty, RITA computes both observation points and the trajectory to visit the observation points simultaneously. RITA uses sampling-based techniques to find admissible trajectories with decreasing cost. Simulation results for 2-D environments are promising. Furthermore, we present analysis on the probabilistic completeness and asymptotic optimality of our algorithm
