Design optimisation of air-fed full pressurised suits
No full textThis article is a post-print version of the published article which may be accessed at the link below.The JET machine and associated facilities require significant maintenance and enhancement installation activities in support of the experimental exploitation programme. A proportion of these activities are within radiological and respiratory hazardous environments. As such, breathing air-fed one-piece pressurised suits provide workers with protection from the inhalation of both airborne tritium and beryllium dust. The design of these suits has essentially developed empirically. There is a practical necessity to improve the design to optimise worker performance, protection and thermal comfort. This paper details the complexity of modeling the three-dimensional thermofluid domain between the inner surface of the suit and under garments that includes mass as well as heat transfer, suiting geometry, human metabolism and respiration and effects of limb movements. The methods used include computational fluid dynamics (CFD), theoretical adaptations of mixed-phase turbulent flow, profile scanning of a suit and actuating life size mannequin and data processing of the images and experimental validation trials. The achievements of the current programme and collaborations are presented in the paper and future endeavors are discussed.The author gratefully acknowledges the loan of the articulated mannequin from the Defence Science and Technology Laboratories.

Corpo e Presença: experiências dentro e fora da sala de aula
Get PDFEm novembro de 2016, a professora Lúcia promoveu, em uma turma de Educação Infantil, uma exposição e uma apresentação de dança intituladas Ubuntu! e as atividades foram observadas e filmadas para análise, considerando as pesquisas com os cotidianos. Durante a análise, as intersecções entre o aqui e agora, o tempo real e o tempo virtual se apresentaram para além de qualquer configuração pré-concebida ou planejamento que pudesse prever uma experienciação. São os resultados dessa experiência estética, que toca o sujeito na pausa, na interrupção, no perigo e no estranhamento que movem esse texto em que são produzidos apontamentos sobre experiências que envolvem corpo e presença dentro e fora da sala de aula
Ativismo visual docente: a contravisualidade em uma conversa online com imagens
Get PDFOnline conversation multiplied during the period of the COVID-19 pandemic that started in 2020 in Brazil, and learning to be with visual culture and contemporary (counter) visualities, makes visible the ways in which we are producing ourselves, as teachers, and that has become quite different from periods prior to the pandemic. It is from this context and the methodology of conversation with images in digital daily life that we bring to reflexivity the excerpt of an online conversation with images between graduates in pedagogy, showing in a theoretical-practical way, in this article, how much we are learning-teaching and constituting ourselves with the images in the midst of the multiple screens from which we narrate about ourselves with others. The conversation took place in an online chat room with images, open on Google Meet, in July 2021, in a discipline at the Public University and the article reports the experience of the authors, respectively professor of the discipline and phD student, in the theme under analysis in the thesis being prepared by one of them.
Keywords: Digital daily life. Teacher training. Conversation methodology. Visual cultureLa conversación en línea se multiplicó durante el período de la pandemia de Covid-19 que comenzó en 2020, en Brasil, y aprender a ser con la cultura visual, y las (contra) visualidades contemporáneas, visibiliza los modos como estamos produciéndonos, como docentes y que se han vuelto bastante diferentes de períodos anteriores a la pandemia. Es a partir de este contexto y de la metodología de conversación con imágenes en lo cotidiano digital que traemos a la reflexividad el extracto de una conversación en línea con imágenes entre licenciadas y licenciados en pedagogía, mostrando de una manera teórico-práctica, en este artículo, cuánto estamos aprendiendo/enseñando y nos constituyendo con las imágenes en medio de las múltiples pantallas a partir de las cuales narramos sobre nosotros mismos con los otros. La conversación tuvo lugar en una sala de conversas en línea con imágenes, abierta en Google Meet, en julio de 2021, en una materia de la Universidad Pública y el artículo relata la experiencia de las autoras, respectivamente docente de la asignatura y la estudiante de doctorado, en la temática que se analiza en la tesis, que está en elaboración por una de ellas.

Change Communication within organizations : How perceptions differ between managers and employees in an organizational change
No full textTitle: Change Communication within organizations – How perceptions differ between managers and employees in an organizational change Author: Emma Ender & Fanny Tesch Tutor: Anne-Marie Morhed Purpose: The purpose of this thesis was to study and compare different perceptions of change communication between managers and employees within two smaller organizations. We wanted to examine how the communication process within the change was carried out. We also aimed to compare the results with change communication models of Johansson & Heide (2008) and Lewin (1951), and also existing concepts, to see if our result differed from earlier research. Our key questions to answer were: How do managers communicate a change to the employees in two smaller companies? How do the managers think that the employees perceive the information about the change? How do the employees perceive the information about the change? How does change models from previous research correspond to, or differ from the change process? Method/Material: The material used in this thesis consists of a total of twelve interviews with both managers and employees at two small companies. Main results: The main results shows that communicating a change is complex, and that it is difficult to create models and theories for the phenomenon, as each change is unique. The main results further show that employees and managers have different views regarding change communication. The managers believe the change communication turned out well while the employees required more information afterwards. Although some of the employees already knew about the change there was a small spread of rumours and anxiety among the employees over all. The managers thought a few of the employees might have sensed that something was going to happen.

Receding-horizon adaptive contyrol of aero-optical wavefronts
No full textA new method for adaptive prediction and correction of wavefront errors in adaptive optics (AO) is introduced. The new method is based on receding-horizon control design and an adaptive lattice filter. Experimental results presented illustrate the capability of the new adaptive controller to predict and correct aero-optical wavefronts derived from recent flight-test data. The experimental results compare the performance of the new adaptive controller the performance of a minimum-variance adaptive controller previously used in AO. These results demonstrate the reduced sensitivity of the receding-horizon adaptive controller to high-frequency sensor noiseDelft Center for Systems and ControlElectrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Scienc
