    Experimental application of a dynamic observer to capture and predict the dynamics of a flat-plate boundary layer

    No full text
    The recent approach, proposed by Guzman-Inigo et al. \cite{GuzmanInigo2014}, using System Identification to derive a Reduced Order Model from snapshots of a flow is applied to a transitional boundary layer growing over a flat-plate. It is shown that such an approach can indeed be applied to experimental PIV snapshots. Using a proper learning dataset and a proper local sensor, it is shown that the evolution of boundary layer can be properly estimated from the time evolution of the local probe and with no more than ten POD modes for the Reduced Order Model. The influence of the various parameters on the efficiency of the system identification technique is discussed

    Double-directional Multipath Data at 140 GHz

    This data set contains 140 GHz double-directional path data in an indoor hall environment. Details of the environment and data format are available in .txt and .ppt files in the same package as data. The data were derived from channel sounding along with a measurement-based ray-launcher, which is elaborated in the following paper. M. F. de Guzman, P. Koivumäki and K.

    Are you sitting comfortably? The political economy of the body

    No full text
    The aim of this paper is to examine the relationship between the mass production of furniture in modern industrial societies and lower back pain (LBP). The latter has proven to be a major cost to health services and private industry throughout the industrialised world and now represents a global health issue as recent WHO reports on obesity and LBP reveal. Thus far there have been few co-ordinated attempts to deal with the causes of the problem through public policy. Drawing upon a range of sources in anthropology, health studies, politics and economics, the paper argues that this a modern social problem rooted in the contingent conjuncture of natural and social causal mechanisms. The key question it raises is: what are the appropriate mechanisms for addressing this problem? This paper develops an analysis rooted in libertarian social theory and argues that both the state and the capitalist market are flawed mechanisms for resolving this problem. There remains a fundamental dilemma for libertarians, however. Whilst the state and the market may well be flawed mechanisms, they are the dominant ones shaping global political economy. To what extent can libertarians work within these structures and remain committed to libertarian goals

    This article describes how the author designed a mediation course applying the Ignatian Pedagogical Paradigm (IPP). Examples are shared of some of the assignments and activities as well as narratives of students evidencing how by combining the five tenets of IPP -- context, experience, reflection, action, and evaluation -- students achieve professional, spiritual, and personal growth.148-63

    Looking beyond securization : the role of interest groups in shaping national migration policies in semi-authoritarian states.

    No full text
    51 p.Immigration policy theory research has so far been focused on the immigration politics of democratic states. While the analysis of cases in democratic contexts has provided insights on political decision-making processes, the validity of these theoretical principles has yet been affirmed when applied to semi-authoritarian or authoritarian states. In this paper, the immigration policies of Malaysia and the United Arab Emirates were analyzed to examine if the Neo-corporatist model of interest group politics theory applied to them in the formation of immigration policies.Master of Science (Strategic Studies

    Managing institutional complexity through strategy and structure: the experience of Sri Lanka?s peak business interest associations

    No full text
    This study seeks to better understand the way, in which business interest associations in a developing country address issues associated with the plurality of logics and interest among their members. The dilemma that business associations face, when it comes to representing the various interests of their constituents under a single banner, is adequately documented. But there is a gap in empirical literature on the way that associations successfully address this dilemma from the top down, especially in a developing country like Sri Lanka. We present a case study of the four most prominent peak national business associations in Sri Lanka – and their attempts at reconciling the diverse voices and interests of their members. We find that insights from contemporary institutional logics literature are particularly helpful in explaining the strategic and structural means, by which Sri Lankan business associations address the issue of presenting a united front for the very diverse groups of firms and industries that make up their membership. Specifically, our observation shows that Sri Lanka’s peak business associations respond to the diverse, and at times competing, interests of their members in ways that are consistent with Kraatz and Block’s characterisation of organisational responses to institutional complexity, namely through: elimination/marginalisation, mediation, compartmentalisation and detachment.Full Tex
