Correlation of microseismic and chemical properties of brittle deformation in Locharbriggs sandstone
Get PDFThe time-dependent properties of ceramic materials such as rocks depend both on preexisting cracks and chemical properties acting at their tips. We have examined the direct effect of chemical processes on the growth of a crack population by carrying out triaxial flow-through compression tests on Locharbriggs sandstone. The tests were carried out at temperatures of 25–80°C and at strain rates ranging from 10−5 to 10−8 s−1 under constant stress rate loading. The exit pore fluid was analyzed after the tests for the concentration of dissolved ions and acoustic emission was monitored in real time throughout the tests. The exit pore fluid silica concentration and microcrack damage derived from the acoustic emission (AE) data both exhibited an exponential increase during the strain hardening phase of deformation. Damage parameters inferred from the AE data predict the stress-strain curves adequately, or at least up to the point of strong microcrack coalescence. The damage parameters and silica signal were strongly correlated by a power law relationship. The observed environment and strain rate dependence of mechanical properties can hence be attributed uniquely to time-dependent crack growth by the stress corrosion mechanism
Author interview: Q and A with Dr Ian Sanjay Patel on we’re here because you were there: immigration and the end of empire
No full textIn this author interview, we speak to Dr Ian Sanjay Patel about his new book, We’re Here Because You Were There: Immigration and the End of Empire, which explores post-war immigration laws, the afterlives of British imperial citizenship and related attempts to reimagine and rejuvenate British imperialism after 1945. Contributing to transnational histories of decolonisation, the book also explores the interconnections between human rights, post-war migration and international diplomacy.

Carisma e burocracia na obra do historiador Ian Kershaw
Get PDFTCC (graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Curso de Ciências Sociais.Essa pesquisa tem por objetivo estudar a relação entre carisma e burocracia na obra do historiador Ian Kershaw. Também retrata parte do debate entre as principais correntes dentro do campo desse campo de estudo historiográfico, principalmente entre intencionalistas, funcionalistas e pós-estruturalistas. A análise passa por uma revisão dos conceitos weberianos e pelo obra própria obra de Kershaw, com ênfase na comunidade carismática e operacionalização da ditadura hitlerista segundo a obra do segundo.This research aims to study the relationship between charisma and bureaucracy in the work of the historian Ian Kershaw. Also depicts part of the debate between the main currents within the field of this historiographical field of study, especially among intentionalists, functional and poststructuralist. The analysis goes through a review of Weberian concepts and the very work of Kershaw work, with an emphasis on charismatic community and operationalization of the Hitler dictatorship according to his wor
Ian Bogost at X-Media Lab: serious gaming
No full textVideo games are usually viewed as a form of escapism: pure entertainment and shoot-em-up fantasy. But increasingly, games are being recognised as educational tools, or as deliverers of social or political messages. This evolving medium is taking on complex environments and issues, and providing a platform for people to explore a world or situation in an interactive way. In this talk at the X Media Lab in Sydney, video game theorist and designer Ian Bogost gives an overview of how video games can benefit human existence.
Ian Bogost is author of "Unit Operations: An Approach to Videogame Criticism", recently listed among "50 books for everyone in the game industry". He also wrote "Persuasive Games: The Expressive Power of Videogames", and was co-author of "Racing the Beam: The Atari Video Computer System". He is widely considered an influential thinker and doer in the videogame industry and research community.
