    Michigan State University senior Nimesh Patel says he is majoring in social science and psychology and hopes to earn a law degree and a doctorate in international relations and finally join the foreign service. Patel talks about his Indian heritage, his parents, their emphasis on education, the sacrifices made by their families, and the professional pursuits of his sisters. Patel describes the village his father came from and says that his own visit to India changed the way he looks at the world and made him more appreciative of life in the U.S. He also talks about the adjustment to college life and socializing with students from all over the country. Part of the series "Generation X: the hopes and dreams of college students," produced and recorded by Robert F. Crawford

    Effects of Superheat and Solute Additions on the Grain Size in Binary Copper Alloys

    © The Author(s) 2019. By utilizing data from the literature, we examine the effects of superheat and solute additions on the grain size (as measured by columnar grain length) in binary copper alloys. Our investigation provides support for an Arrhenius-like behavior of the superheat on the grain size. We also find a correlation between the columnar grain length at a constant degree of superheat and the variation of the reciprocal of the true growth restriction factor (1/Q) with P, Mg, Mn, Pb, and Sn solute additions to be a power of law of 1/3, which gave a better fit than a linear one.EPSRC (UK

    High Speed Marine Vehicles With Aerodynamic Surfaces: Development of a Dynamic Model for a Novel Configuration.

    No full text
    A research programme on high speed marine vehicles fitted with aerodynamic surfaces started in Cranfield University in 2005. One of the configurations analyzed is a high speed prismatic planing hull with one or more aerodynamic surfaces; it is called a hybrid vehicle (HV). Two mathematical models have been developed for the dynamic behavior which is a combination of the very different behaviors of aircraft and ships. The first model estimates the equilibrium attitude of the HV at a certain speed. A parametric analysis for the influence of the configuration on the performance of the HV has been conducted (1). With the second model, the authors propose a set of ordinary differential equations of motion, derived in the frame of small-disturbance stability theory which has been used to investigate the longitudinal dynamic stability of the HV (2). Ref. (1) and (2) present a complete description of the mathematical models, while this article summarizes the methodology adopted to develop these dynamic models and gives a brief summary of the results.

    Variations on the Author

    No full text
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
