    Negotiating masculinity in male independent escorting

    No full text
    Male sex work research has been generally limited to the examination of ‘social problems’. While there have been studies on the occupational aspects, most have neglected the role of masculinity, and therefore research on masculinity in the vocational paradigm of the field is necessary to better contextualize male sex work. Thus, using semi-structured interviews with 20 escorts, this study explored the role of masculinity in understanding the occupational context of male escorting. The thesis shows that male escorting is transitioning toward legitimacy, and more significantly, how masculinity is essential in understanding the occupational features of the field

    The development of gear transmissions nowadays is focusing on four main reasons which are noise, vibration, and harshness to reduce the surrounding sound pollution, load capacity, wear and tear which will lessen friction and productivity. Gearboxes are as often as possible outlined conservatively with a supply of oil to ensure operational unwavering quality. The present study will focus on the viscosity of plastic extruder line gearbox oil and how the oil temperature is maintained. In this study, two types of lubricants will be used to demonstrate which lubricant performs well. use a calculation method to prove the efficiency of the heat exchanger before and after the gear oil temperature. An earlier investigation focused more on oil temperature and did not show what would happen due to high oil temperature and didn’t demonstrate simulation results with gear oils of actual viscosity. This study aims to collect actual data and prove it by simulation and experimental methods. This research is more effective for high voltage cable industry production because normally the extrusion line will be run for two or three weeks nonstop to reach the target of the order. The data also show an exponential trend between the average wear rates and the surface fatigue lives. Lubricants with similar viscosities but differing additives and compositions had somewhat differing gear surface fatigue lives and wear rates. It determined the way to reduce gearbox portion temperature and maintain the lubricant additive and also the viscosity index number. The method to eliminate water and acid contained in the plastic extruder gearbox during the machine operating at high temperature

    The priority for ideas and philosophy related to "Network Theory" have been traced back and documented by Braun(2004),and credit goes to Karinthy(1929).The IT has empowered to realise it, as the most practical phenomena and it is no more a humour. The OAI (Open Archives Initiatives)and ACIS (Academic Contributor Information System)are progressive in the direction ,which may lead to realise the "Collective Genius" at global level. Focus of present study is on Author-Self-Archiving (A-S-A)Metadata of the 983 Eprints in the Live Archives of the E-LIS (EPrints of Library and Information Science),which were approved till 7th July 2004.The A-S-A Metadata was used for librametric analysis. Self-explanatory bibliographics are illustrated.The highlights include: Conference papers (34%); highest approval, June 2004 (28%); published archives (76%);not refereed (52%); not in public domain (60%); highest self-archiving-author (De Robbio, Antonella).The Nos. of EPrints having single JITA domain specifications were: Theoretical and general aspects of libraries and information(27); Information use and sociology of information(80);Users,literacy and reading(13);Libraries as physical collections(30);Publishing and legal issues(57);Management(13);Industry, profession and education(36);Information sources, supports, channels(113) ; Information treatment for information services, Information functions and techniques (101); Technical services libraries, archives and museums(25); Housing technologies(1); Information technology and library technology(92); and Inter-domainery (395) i.e. having specifications of two or more than two JITA classes

    A Unified Shell model for Buoyancy-Driven Turbulence

    We construct a unified shell model for stably stratified and convective turbulence. Shell model simulation of stably stratified flow in turbulent regime exhibit Bolgiano-Obukhbov (BO) scaling in which the kinetic energy spectrum varies as k11/5k^{-11/5}. However, simulation of convective turbulence shows Kolmogorov's spectrum. These results are consistent with the direct numerical simulations of Kumar {\em et al.} [Phys. Rev. E {\bf 90}, 023016 (2014)]. We also observe a dual scaling (k11/5k^{-11/5} and k5/3k^{-5/3}) for a limited range of parameters in stably stratified flow
