Rewolucja oczami Wandei
No full textRevolution seen through the eyes of VendéeThis paper aims at reviewing a publication entitled "The Franco-French Genocide. Vendée – the Department of Vengeance" by Reynald Secher. The book touches on the issue of fights between the Republicans and peasants opposing the regime of the revolutionaries. This event’s history has been hushed up. Moreover, it has effectively been removed from the national narrative. Reynald Secher propagates the process of reminding us of those facts. In this review, information on the fights will be contrasted with theories presented by other historians in order to make the reader aware of the whole process’s complexity and of many persistent inaccuracies.Materials collected by the author will be subjected to our analysis. Due to the reconstruction of events by eye-witnesses, previously an underestimated but abundant source of knowledge, the author has learned the truth about the acts of the revolutionary heroes. In Secher's work, the accuracy with which he presents all the issues becomes equally important.Special attention should be paid to the very word “genocide” and its associations. Indeed, the work is not focused on carnage. Instead, it plays a part both as a reminder that carnage did take place, and a presentation of reasons for its occurrence. Rewolucja oczami WandeiNiniejsza praca ma na celu zrecenzowanie publikacji „Ludobójstwo francusko-francuskie. Wandea - Departament Zemsty” Reynalda Sechera. Książka dotyczy walk między republikanami oraz chłopami sprzeciwiającymi się rządom rewolucjonistów. Historia o tym zdarzeniu została wyciszona i skutecznie usunięta z narracji narodowej. Reynald Secher propaguje proces „odpamiętnienie” tamtejszych wydarzeń. W niniejszej recenzji informacje na temat walk zostaną skontrastowane z teoriami prezentowanymi przez innych historyków, aby uświadomić czytelnikowi złożoność całego procesu oraz o wielu wciąż istniejących nieścisłościach.Analizie poddane zostaną zebrane przez autora materiały. Dzięki rekonstrukcji zdarzeń oczami bezpośrednich świadków wydarzeń, będącymi dotąd niedocenioną skarbnicą wiedzy, autor poznał prawdę o czynach bohaterów rewolucji. W pracy Sechera równie ważna staje się szczegółowość, z jaką przedstawia wszystkie elementy.Szczególną uwagę należy przyłożyć do samego słowa „ludobójstwo” i konotacji z nim związanych. Sednem pracy nie jest bowiem przedstawienie rzezi, ale przypomnienie, że miała ona miejsce i zaprezentowanie powodów jej zaistnienia

Aboriginal customary law ::a source of common law title to land /

Lateral Buckling of Armor Wires in Flexible Pipes: Reaching 3000m Water Depth
No full textThis paper presents the latest progress on the armor wires lateral buckling phenomena with the qualification of flexible pipes for water depths up to 3,000m. The design challenges specific to ultra deep water are governed by the effect of the external pressure: Armor wires lateral buckling is one of the failure modes that needs to be addressed when the flexible pipe is empty and subject to dynamic curvature cycling. As a first step, the lateral buckling mechanism is described and driving parameters are discussed. Then, the program objective is presented together with flexible pipe designs: - Subsea dynamic Jumpers applications; - Sweet and Sour Service; - Internal diameters up to 11″. Dedicated flexible pipe components were selected to address the severe loading conditions encountered in water depths up to 3,000m. Hydrostatic collapse resistance was addressed by a thick inner carcass layer and a PSI pressure vault. Armor wires lateral buckling was addressed by the design and industrialization of new tensile armor wires. The pipe samples were manufactured using industrial production process in the factories in France and Brazil. The available testing protocols are then presented discussing their advantages and drawbacks. For this campaign, a combination of Deep Immersion Performances (DIP) tests and tests in hyperbaric chambers was selected. The DIP test campaign was performed End 2009 beginning 2010 in the Gulf of Mexico using one of Technip Installation Vessel. These tests replicated the actual design conditions to which a flexible pipe would be subjected during installation and operation. The results clearly demonstrated the suitability of flexible pipes as a valid solution for ultra deep water applications. In addition, the DIP tests results were compared to the tests in hyperbaric chambers giving consistent results. This campaign provided design limitations of the new designs for both 9″ and 11″ internal diameter flexible pipes, in sweet and sour service in water depths up to 3,000m.</jats:p
Qualification Testing Of Flexible Pipes For 3000m Water Depth
No full text
Abstract
The paper is relevant to riser technology and specifically, qualification of flexible pipes for water depths up to 3,000m.
This paper describes a comprehensive program aimed at the qualification of flexible pipes for ultradeep water applications. The primary design driver for ultradeep water flexible pipe applications is the resistance to hydrostatic pressure, in combination with dynamic curvature cycling. The two associated critical failure modes are hydrostatic collapse and lateral buckling of armour wires.
Technip have developed dedicated flexible pipe components to address the severe loading conditions encountered in water depths up to 3,000m. Hydrostatic collapse resistance has been addressed by a thick inner carcass layer and a PSI pressure vault. Armour wire lateral buckling, which is induced by axial compression in the armour wires in combination with dynamic curvature cycling, has been addressed by the design and industrialization of new tensile armour wires.
The design qualification process for these improvements was completed on two levels. Initially, a large number of pipes were subjected to dynamic cycling testing under high hydrostatic pressure in a hyperbaric chamber so as to determine design limits in terms of pipe diameter, water depth and component sizing. Then, design combinations were selected for testing in a real deepwater environment in the Gulf of Mexico. This second level of tests referred as Deep Immersion Performance (DIP) tests aimed at validating the results obtained from hyperbaric chamber tests. The DIP tests replicated the actual design conditions to which a flexible pipe would be subjected during installation and operation.
The development of new and modified flexible pipe components provided a suite of flexible pipe designs suitable for extended water depth application. The final phase of the qualification program, namely the DIP tests, was completed in 2010. It provided design limitations of the new designs for both 9?? and 11?? internal diameter flexible pipes, in sweet and sour service in water depths up to 3,000m
This paper clearly demonstrates the suitability of flexible pipes as a valid solution for ultradeep water applications as long as the mechanical behavior of the pipe components is adequately addressed.
1. Introduction and objectives
The objective of this paper is to describe the comprehensive R&D project for the qualification of flexible pipes in water depths up to 3000m.
The main and primary purpose of this R&D program was to demonstrate that the validation range of our flexible pipes can be extended from depths of 2000 m (as it was before project) to beyond today's market needs in Brazil and the Gulf of Mexico (Figure 1), i.e.3000 m for flexible pipe risers between 7?? and 9??2400 m for 11?? flexible pipe risers.
A secondary objective was to extend to 3000 m, the validity range of our design models and of our testing methodology.

Epigenome_Datasets
No full textHolstein embryos were produced in vitro (IVP, n=4) or in vivo (by ovarian superstimulation followed by AI; MOET, n=4) and transferred to synchronized recipients. Pregnancies were monitored until delivery. Male calves were maintained in similar conditions during the postnatal period until euthanasia at around 100 days of age.
The following datasets correspond to the epigenomic modifications in the hypothalamus, pituitary, testicles, adrenals, liver, and muscle from IVP and MOET calves.
The WGBS clean reads were aligned to the bovine reference genome (bosTau 9) using the Bismark Bisulfite Read Marker (v 0.22.3). The percent of methylated cytosines was calculated as the number of methylated cytosines/total number of cytosines x 100. Cytosines were annotated with the nearest (no specific cut-off) transcription start site (TSS) and with gene structures (promoter, exon, intron, CpG islands or shores) through Genomation (Bioconductor/R). Promoters and CpG shore were defined as ± 1000 bp and ± 2000 bp of the TSS and CpG islands, respectively.
