Product Innovation Knowledge Transfer for Developing Countries: Towards a systematic Transfer Approach
No full textThe transfer of knowledge on product innovation to small- and medium-sized enterprises and local knowledge institutions in developing countries is expected to be one of the key drivers for competiveness and economical growth, and a part of the solution to environmental and social challenge. In that respect, this PhD study focuses on how the process of the current knowledge transfer takes place and how it can be improved. A combination of literature review and empirical research has resulted into a conceptual framework to describe the complex and dynamic process of product innovation knowledge transfer to developing countries. In order to improve this process, a systematic approach has been developed and operationalized by a needs assessment tool and a design manual: The UNEP Design for Sustainability for Developing Economies (D4S-DE) Manual (www.d4s-de.org). Both tools have been tested in practice by practitioners and have been evaluated by an academic review board.Design EngineeringIndustrial Design Engineerin
An analysis of foreign language lesson discourse : with special reference to the teaching of English in Tunisian secondary schools.
No full textIn this thesis a new model for the analysis of foreign language
lesson discourse has been developed. It draws on existing models but
provides flexibility by focusing on three levels: Frame, Move, Act.
An attempt has been made in this thesis to clarify further the domain
of pragmatics by looking at the various fields that have contributed to it.
This has led the author to (i) differentiate between foreign language
lesson discourse and other discourses and (ii) locate the new model in
relation to other approaches to discourse analysis. The foregoing
discussion has revealed to the author that many researchers and
theoreticians have misunderstood many key terms in pragmatics which have
contributed to unwarranted positions concerning the role of the teacher and
the importance of textbooks in the classroom.
A detailed analysis of discourse in eight English lessons in Tunisian
secondary schools (two in each of the four years) has been undertaken. The
results of the analysis reflect the influence of the textbooks and suggest
different degrees of benefit for the learner.
There are seven chapters in the thesis. Chapter One reviews the
theoretical foundations of the audiolingual method. Chapter Two discusses
Chomskyan theory and its influence on approaches to L2 learning and
teaching. Chapter Three deals with pragmatics, particularly its relevance
to second language learning studies and its importance for the analysis of
second language classroom discourse. Chapter Four looks at the
communicative approach to second language teaching and related developments
in second language acquisition studies. It also discusses Tunisian
learners' communication strategies. Chapter Five gives the reader a general
background about the Tunisian linguistic community and the educational
system there. It also discusses the textbooks used for the teaching of
English in Tunisian secondary schools. Chapter Six gives an account of the
procedure adopted for data collection and presents in detail the model for
the analysis of Tunisian foreign language lesson discourse. Chapter Seven
discusses the results of the quantitative analysis of the Tunisian foreign
language lesson discourses, and proposes some reforms.
The thesis contains a short introduction and conclusion, as well as
eight appendices where the orthographic transcription and analysis of each
lesson discourse is given.

Where do we draw lines: professional relationship boundaries and the child and youth care practitioner
No full textThe question of professional relationship boundaries is a poignant one, in light of the many boundary grey-zones that are created by the variety of young people’s needs, practice settings and professional relationship contexts within the field of child and youth care. In order to support practitioners’ development of critical thought and awareness of professional boundaries, this paper applies a professional relationship boundaries conceptual framework to child and youth care work, and the literature is consulted to explore the impacts of boundary violations, influences on individual’s boundaries, cues to indicate blurring boundaries, and key strategies to maintain balanced boundaries

J.C. Painter letter to Benjamin Lundy
No full textLetter from J.E. Painter to (presumably) Benjamin Lundy, answering a request for information about the history and operations of the Underground Railroad. Letter includes details of a story of an ex-slave transported on the Underground Railroad through Ohio and stories of the plight of other fugitive slaves crossing the Ohio River.
Benjamin Lundy (1789-1839) was a prominent Quaker abolitionist best known for his development of abolitionist periodicals. His "Genius of Universal Emancipation" was first published in 1821 from his home in Mt. Pleasant, Ohio, and enjoyed a wide circulation across the antebellum United States. In the 1820s, the young William Lloyd Garrison came to work for The Genius. Benjamin Lundy traveled widely seeking subscriptions to The Genius, giving talks about the anti-slavery movement, and observing and documenting the conditions of enslaved people across the Americas. He was also involved in the establishment of freed slave colonies in Mexico
Linear-chain-model Interpretation Of Resonant Raman Scattering In Gensin Microstructures
No full textWe use a linear-chain model with bond polarizabilities to simulate the Raman spectrum of a Ge5Si5 microstructure which presents interface roughness both in the atomic scale and in the form of terraces of lateral dimensions equal or superior to 102 Å. The model is not very successful in reproducing the effects of the short range roughness, but simulates effectively the consequences of terracing on the Raman spectrum of our sample. A detailed line shape analysis of one of these Raman lines leads to insights into the electronic states which are responsible for the resonant effects in the Raman cross section.53231587115877Jusserand, B., Cardona, M., (1989) Topics in Applied Physics, 66, p. 49. , Light Scattering in Solids V, edited by M.

Turbulent wakes of plates with non-equilibrium similarity scalings
No full textWe have conducted hot wire anemometry measurements of six different axisymmetric turbulent wakes which demonstrate the existence in all these wakes of non-equilibrium mean flow profile scalings and of the underlying self-preservation and non-equilibrium dissipation scalings. These mean flow profile scalings are different from those of all documented canonical boundary-free turbulent shear flows to date, all of which have been established for very far downstream regions
Energy dissipation and flux laws for unsteady turbulence
No full textDirect Numerical Simulations of spatially periodic unsteady turbulence show that the high Reynolds number scalings of the instantaneous energy dissipation rate and interscale energy flux at intermediate wavenumbers are qualitatively different from the well-known cornerstone scalings of equilibrium turbulence where and are time-dependent rms velocity and integral length-scales. Instead, they both scale as where and are length and velocity scales characterizing initial/overall unsteady turbulence conditions
