THE INSTITUTION OF IMPOSITION OF A PUNISHMENT MILDER THAN PROVIDED BY LAW: PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE
No full textУ статті наведено історико-правовий аналіз інституту призначення більш м’якого покарання, ніж передбачено законом. Досліджено мотиви законодавця щодо включення такої норми до закону про кримінальну відповідальність. Розглянуто невнесення до проекту нового Кримінального кодексу України можливості суду призначати більш м’яке покарання, ніж передбачено законом, з точки зору обмеження конституційного права особи, яка вчинила кримінальне правопорушення, на індивідуалізацію кримінальної відповідальності. The purpose of the article is to conduct a historical and legal analysis of the formation of the institution of imposition of a punishment milder than provided by law, and to study the motives of the legislator to include of such norm in the law on criminal liability. The issue of the non-inclusion to the draft of the new Criminal Code of Ukraine the possibility of a court to impose a milder punishment will also be considered. According to the results of the study it was established that the formation of the institution of milder punishment than provided by law was based on the legislator’s awareness of the practical need to ensure that the court takes into account when choosing the type and size of punishment all individual circumstances of a particular case and subjective qualities of the offender. The noninclusion in the draft of the new Criminal Code of Ukraine of the possibility to impose a milder punishment than provided by law from the viewpoint of limiting the constitutional right of a person who committed a criminal offense to individualization of criminal responsibility are considered. The specified point of view of the author of this article is based on the considered decisions of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine. The opinion on the need to ensure the inclusion of the institution of imposition of a punishment milder than provided by law in the draft of the new Criminal Code of Ukraine was put forward

In order to organize the construction activities, the author has used the building’s main architectural project and constructive work project, which have been compiled by Nord Projekt OÜ and Inseneribüroo Pluss. In addition, the author has used EKE NORA normative base for work duration and cost, the opinions of the consultants and technology-related literature. The thesis includes the architectural characteristics of the building and the descriptions of the constructions. The installation works of the typical floor’s supporting structures, the technology of the floors’ concrete works and organizing the work process are discussed in more detail. While focusing on these issues, the author has also concentrated on concreting in winter conditions and found the best way to complete these tasks. The author has compiled a detailed table describing the construction works and the estimated cost of the building, which turned out to be 4 555 180,37€. In addition, the cost of organizing the construction activities has been established to be 4,35% or 198 284,07€ of the building’s estimated full cost. By using the EKE NORA normative base for work duration, the author has established the general schedule of construction operations and the sizes of the working teams. Based on these results, the duration of the full construction process is 267 working days. The composed schedule shows that the maximum number of workers needed on the site is 57. The balance between the different types of work and the necessity for resources was considered while planning the time schedule. The thesis includes a general plan of the construction site, which determines its size and location. In addition, the author has calculated the amount of electricity that is needed for the construction activities. The general plan also shows the placements of construction fences, the locations of general lighting, the position of the stationary tower crane and the traffic scheme on the site

Here the driver asks the merchant (who has surprisingly usurped the shade) to move over so that they can both sit in the donkey's shade. The result is the same as ever: the donkey runs away while they argue. $.15
Developments of energy in EU–unlocking the wave energy potential
No full textThe New Entrance Reserve (NER300) is one of the leading mechanisms used for the application and promotion of clean energy projects. In this context, this study aims to investigate the evolution of wave energy projects within the first and second call of NER300. Furthermore, the study tries to identify the reasons of successful applications through an estimation analysis of energy production, avoided emission and energy security. Milder resources contain ‘hidden’ opportunities for wave energy, with lower expenditure and capacity factors equivalent and even over 20%. Lower extreme events indicate that associated installation costs can be considered reduced, thus the potential cost of energy may act as a positive driver for future development. The results of the study argue that there are regions with ‘hidden’ opportunities that can accelerate proof-of-concept and enhance viability for wave energy.Accepted Author ManuscriptTransport Engineering and Logistic
Stability of rock-armoured mild slopes
No full textPhysical model tests have been performed to study static stability of rock-armoured mild slopes. Current stability design formulae for steeper rock-armoured slopes focus on plunging and surging waves. Slopes of 1:6 and milder usually have more spilling breakers which decreases the load. Also, on mild slopes displaced rocks more often remain present in the wave attack zone, which increases the strength. These aspects lead to an overdesigned structure when existing formulae for steep rock-armoured slopes are used. The present wave flume tests were used to understand the processes and develop a design formula for rock-armoured mild slopes with an impermeable core. These tests were performed for statically stable rock-armoured slopes of 1:6 to 1:10. The tests confirmed that not all existing damage parameters are able to accurately describe the static stability on milder slopes. For mild slopes it is more accurate to describe the damage based on the eroded depth rather than on the eroded area or number of moved stones. In this study, a design formula and guidelines are provided for practicing engineers that design or evaluate the stability of mild rock-armoured slopes.Coastal EngineeringHydraulic Structures and Flood Ris
Routes to Make Natural Rubber Heal: A Review
No full textThis review outlines latest developments in the field of self-healing rubbers and elastomers, analyzing their potential application to natural rubber (NR). Different validated healing concepts are presented and the possibilities of applying them to NR are discussed. Research in this field should aim at modifying the chemical structure of NR as to enhance physical or chemical reversible interactions either intermolecular or intramolecular. The realization of better mechanical properties at relevant working conditions and with milder healing conditions remains a challenge for all self-healing rubbers. This overview should be seen as setting the conceptual framework for new developments with a more clearly defined industrial focus.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Novel Aerospace Material
Shifting wave energy perceptions: the case for Wave Energy Converter (WEC) feasibility at milder resources
No full textWave energy can provide significant benefits as renewables acquire more share in electricity production. So far, focus for the development of wave energy is given to areas with resources ≥ 25 kW/m, with moderate resources often not considered. Furthermore, waves have larger uncertainties associated with diverse portfolio of converters leading to higher Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCoE). This study challenges the notion of economic viability for moderate resources, therefore the methodology and results of this analysis are globally applicable. Several different types of wave converters suggest multi-zonal applicability, underlying the dependence on the diverse wave energy resource that can be harvested. It is clear that different zones favour alternative converters, common characteristic is that all have nominal capacity below 1 MW. Optimally selected converters, attain capacity factors over 30%, with LCoE depending more on discount rate-capital pairs, mean LCoE values are from 150 to 250/MWh with lowest value 60 €/MWh. Investment amortisation also depends on resource and LCoE pairs with an offshore wave farm able to retrieve its capital in 3.8 years (optimal case), 10 years (average). Projects with ≥3 Million €/MW and a higher risk discount of 10% are viable only for high performing devices with capacity factors ≥40%.Offshore EngineeringEnergy and Industr
