COMPARISON OF HARMAN AND COOLING COUPLE METHODS FOR <i>Z</i> DETERMINATION
No full text A Peltier–Seebeck or Harman type apparatus has been constructed to measure the Seebeclc coefficient, α, thermal conductivity, κ, electrical resistivity, ρ, and the figure of merit, Z, of thermoelectric materials over the range of temperature 150–300 °K while maintaining the sample in an approximately isothermal environment. Errors in the measured values of ρ, Z, α, and κ have been kept within 1, 1.5, 3, and 5% respectively. A comparison of the maximum temperature difference, ΔTmax, measured in a cooling test and the value of ΔTmax calculated from the values of α, κ, and ρ as a function of temperature measured in the Harman apparatus shows that, for five thermocouples, agreement is obtained within 1.2 °K on the average, with the greatest disparity being 2.5 °K. </jats:p

JPEG: the quadruple object
No full textThe thesis, together with its practice-research works, presents an object-oriented
perspective on the JPEG standard. Using the object-oriented
philosophy of Graham Harman as a theoretical and also practical starting
point, the thesis looks to provide an account of the JPEG digital object and
its enfolding within the governmental scopic regime. The thesis looks to
move beyond accounts of digital objects and protocols within software
studies that position the object in terms of issues of relationality,
processuality and potentiality. From an object-oriented point of view, the
digital object must be seen as exceeding its relations, as actual, present and
holding nothing in reserve. The thesis presents an account of JPEG starting
from that position as well as an object-oriented account of JPEG’s position
within the distributed, governmental scopic regime via an analysis of
Facebook’s Timeline, tagging and Haystack systems.
As part of a practice-research project, the author looked to use that
perspective within photographic and broader imaging practices as a spur to
new work and also as a “laboratory” to explore Harman’s framework. The
thesis presents the findings of those “experiments” in the form of a report
alongside practice-research eBooks. These works were not designed to be
illustrations of the theory, nor works to be “analysed”. Rather, following the
lead of Ian Bogost and Mark Amerika, they were designed to be
“philosophical works” in the sense of works that “did” philosophy
The Benefits of Being Economics Professor A (and not Z)
Get PDFAlphabetic name ordering on multi-authored academic papers, which is the convention in the economics discipline and various other disciplines, is to the advantage of people whose last name initials are placed early in the alphabet. As it turns out, Professor A, who has been a first author more often than Professor Z, will have published more articles and experienced afaster growth rate over the course of her career as a result of reputation and visibility. Moreover, authors know that name ordering matters and indeed take ordering seriously: Several characteristics of an author group composition determine the decision to deviate from the default alphabetic name order to a significant extent.performance measurement, incentives, economists, name ordering
Final word on Jersey Dutch
No full textIn this article, William Z. Shetter compares and contrasts the dialects that developed between different Dutch colonies in the New World. He explores in-depth the nuances of Jersey Dutch, and provides theories to explain how Dutch and colonial languages blended. The article is reprinted from American Speech, December 1958, Volum XXXIII, No. 4
