Dilip Kumar: autor-aktor
No full textDilip Kumar has been praised for his sublime dialog delivery, for his restrained gestures, and for his measured and controlled underplay of emotions in tragic stories as well as in light-hearted comedies. His debut in 1944 with Jwar Bhata (Ebb and Tide) met with less-than-flattering reviews. So did the next three films until his 1948 film, Jugnu (Firefly), which brought him recognition and success. Unlike his contemporaries such as Raj Kapoor and Dev Anand, who propelled their careers by launching their own production companies, Dilip Kumar relied on his talent, his unique approach to characterization, and his immersion in the projects he undertook. In the course of his career that spanned six decades, Kumar made only 62 films. However, his work is a textbook for other actors that followed. Not only did he bring respectability to a profession that had been shunned by the upper classes in India as a profession for “pimps and prostitutes,” but he also elevated film-acting and filmmaking to an academic discipline, making him worthy of the title ‘Professor Emeritus of Acting’. Rooted in the theoretical framework of Howard S. Becker’s work on the “production of culture” and “doing things together,” this paper discusses Kumar’s approach to acting, character development, and the level of his involvement and commitment to each of his projects. The author of this article argues that more than the creative control as a producer or a director, it is the artistic involvement and commitment of the main actors that shape great works of art in cinema. Dilip Kumar demonstrated it repeatedly.Dilip Kumar był chwalony za wysublimowane prowadzenie dialogów, opanowaną gestykulację oraz za wyważone i kontrolowane wyrażanie emocji zarówno w opowieściach tragicznych, jak też w beztroskich komediach. Jego debiut w 1944 w Jwar Bhata (Odpływy i przypływy) spotkał się z niezbyt pochlebnymi recenzjami. Podobnie było z kolejnymi trzema filmami, aż do filmu Jugnu (Świetlik) z 1948 roku, który przyniósł mu uznanie i sukces. W przeciwieństwie do swoich rówieśników, jak Raj Kapoor iDev Anand, którzy napędzali kariery, uruchamiając własne firmy produkcyjne, Dilip Kumar polegał na swoim talencie, unikalnym podejściu do charakteryzacji i zaangażowaniu w projekty, których się podjął. W ciągu swojej sześćdziesięcioletniej kariery Kumar nakręcił tylko 62 filmy. Jednak jego praca jest podręcznikowa dla młodszych aktorów. Nie tylko przyniósł szacunek zawodowi aktora, traktowanemu przez indyjskie klasy wyższe jako zawód „alfonsów i prostytutek”, ale także podniósł aktorstwo filmowe i filmowanie do dyscypliny akademickiej, co uczyniło Kumara godnym tytułu emerytowanego profesora aktorstwa. Artykuł ten, zakorzeniony w ramach teoretycznych pracy Howarda S. Beckera nad „produkcją kultury” i „robieniem rzeczy razem”, omawia podejście Kumara do aktorstwa i rozwoju postaci oraz poziom jego zaangażowania w każdy ze swoich projektów. Autor tego artykułu przekonuje, że to artystyczne zaangażowanie i poświęcenie głównych aktorów kształtują wielkie dzieła sztuki w kinie bardziej niż kontrola twórcza producenta czy reżysera. Dilip Kumar wielokrotnie to zademonstrował
Edible Packaging: Mechanical Properties and Testing Methods
No full textTraditionally people use food packaging materials from nonrenewable sources such as plastics obtained from petroleum. The traditional food packaging materials play a significant role in the total plastics consumption of the world. They are nonbiodegradable, cause environmental pollution, and large carbon adds to water footprint in their manufacturing process. Subsequently, this leads to a heavy dependence on nonrenewable resources. Reducing the amount of nonrenewable material by biodegradable and renewable sources of packaging holds the potential to improve waste disposal and decrease the cost of packaging and overall product. The need for alternatives to petrochemical-based plastics is more than ever. The current trend in food packaging calls for the utilization of natural, “environment-friendly” materials, which also have some additional functional properties wherever possible and with some cost benefit. Biodegradable packaging is a very good alternative packaging and a specialized type of biodegradable packaging, that is, the “edible packaging,” is a very good alternative as they also have some other benefits like enhancing shelf life, maintaining the freshness of foods, and can be eaten along with the food without altering the original organoleptic characteristics of the food. The two main considerations with the use of edible packaging can be understood from its name itself, which are firstly “edible,” it means the package is an integral part of the food and may or may not be consumed together with the product and hence should have all the necessary properties. At present, 12 types of edible films are approved by FDA and commercially used, which are made up of materials like polysaccharides, lipids, cellulose, chitosan, starch (potato, corn, wheat, rice), hemicellulose, hydrocolloids like gums (guar, pectin) and alginates, and plant and animal proteins. Secondly, the material chosen should have all the properties to protect the food from the outer environment, provide a good barrier against light, water vapor, other gases, and also have the required mechanical strength to protect the food against damages incurred during storage, transportation, and handling
Multilevel Nanophotonic Resistive Switching in Ag-ITO-SiO2 on Silicon with Enhanced Optical Storage Density
No full textMultilevel resistive devices have gained a lot of research attention in the past decade due to their attractive potential applications in high-density non-volatile memory, and unconventional computing. We propose an engineered multilevel nanophotonic resistive switching device with CMOS compatible Ag-ITO-SiO 2 structure on silicon for enhanced storage density and in-memory computing with optical readout functionality. The four-layered structure includes a SiO2/ITO region strategically positioned between an efficient Ag (top) electrode and an underlying p-Si bottom electrode. The engineered nanophotonic device confined hybrid plasmonic mode, mainly in the SiO2 region and with an applied voltage conductive filaments form/deform along ITO and SiO2 layers influencing optical absorption detectable through interaction between the guided hybrid plasmonic mode and conductive filaments. The proposed device achieves stable multiple optical states by controlling compliance current, storing two bits without compromising accuracy to enable parallel computing, and efficient area savings with enhanced storing density for in-memory computing applications on a photonic platform. Additionally, the experimental results demonstrate a significant extinction ratio of 32 dB for the 10 μm × 500 nm device with a low voltage operation. The engineered nanophotonic structure exhibits high retention, high endurance, low operating power, and high speed, making it suitable for various applications, including optical modulation, neuromorphic computation, biochemical sensing, photogating and high-density advanced memory devices

How can we help to develop Chinese and African managers? Building synergies through hybrid practice-based management partnerships
No full textThe insights from the studies in this edited collection heighten the need to understand the impact of the Chinese presence in Africa at the management and organisational levels. On paper, a China-Africa relationship is deemed to be intrinsic and mutually beneficial to both parties, but the evidence noted here and elsewhere is mixed and points to a crucial divide between the strategy and operations of Chinese firms across Africa. Such a divide is made worse by several factors, one of which is the lack of consideration of African management talent. With the majority of African employees being consistently engaged in low-skilled jobs and supported by inadequate HR policies, there are important questions around the value-added impact of Chinese investments in up-skilling African employees and managers by sharing managerial know-how and training to enable the progression of an African management talent base. This chapter explores the scope to do this by proposing a China-Africa Hybrid Practice-based Management Development (CAHPMD) framework, which looks at ways of co-creating conceptual and practical spaces for management development partnerships and synergies with African-based Business Schools (ABS) to educate and co-develop African and Chinese managers in a post-China-Africa era.</p

No obstante, limitarse a afirmar lo obvio no garantiza que la gente y las comunidades dispongan de las mismas posibilidades o capacidad de comunicarse. Se están dejando de lado cuestiones de accesibilidad y asequibilidad; diversidad y pluralismo; propiedad y control; representación y tergiversación; privacidad y seguridad. En resumen, se ignoran los numerosos obstáculos – políticos, económicos, culturales y sociales– a la plena inclusión en la sociedad, que impactan en las vidas y sustentos, en particular, de hombres mujeres, jóvenes y niños marginalizados, desatendidos y perseguidos en todos los países del mundo.Fil: Lee, Philip.

Si and Ge based metallic core/shell nanowires for nano-electronic device applications
No full textOne dimensional heterostructure nanowires (NWs) have attracted a large attention due to the possibility of easily tuning their energy gap, a useful property for application to next generation electronic devices. In this work, we propose new core/shell NW systems where Ge and Si shells are built around very thin As and Sb cores. The modification in the electronic properties arises due to the induced compressive strain experienced by the metal core region which is attributed to the lattice-mismatch with the shell region. As/Ge and As/Si nanowires undergo a semiconducting-to-metal transition on increasing the diameter of the shell. The current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the nanowires show a negative differential conductance (NDC) effect for small diameters that could lead to their application in atomic scale device(s) for fast switching. In addition, an ohmic behavior and upto 300% increment of the current value is achieved on just doubling the shell region. The resistivity of nanowires decreases with the increase in diameter. These characteristics make these NWs suitable candidates for application as electron connectors in nanoelectronic devices
