D.H. Lawrence, Il Trasgressore
No full textPresentazione di Il Trasgressore, secondo romanzo di D.H. Lawrence, pubblicato nel 1912. L'opera narra una vicenda tragica basata su una storia vera, la fuga d'amore di un violista di mezza età (padre di cinque figli) con una giovane allieva. L'esperienza sull'isola si rivela fallimentare in quanto i due amanti non riescono a trovare né la pienezza della passione, né a isolarsi pienamente dalla loro esistenza precedente
Accelerated norm-optimal iterative learning control
No full textThis paper proposes a novel technique for accelerating the convergence of the previously published norm-optimal iterative learning control (NOILC) methodology. The basis of the results is a formal proof of an observation made by the first author, namely that the NOILC algorithm is equivalent to a successive projection algorithm between linear varieties in a suitable product Hilbert space. This leads to two proposed accelerated algorithms together with well-defined convergence properties. The results show that the proposed accelerated algorithms are capable of ensuring monotonic error norm reductions and can outperform NOILC by more rapid reductions in error norm from iteration to iteration. In particular, examples indicate that the approach can improve the performance of NOILC for the problematic case of non-minimum phase systems. Realisation of the algorithms is discussed and numerical simulations are provided for comparative purposes and to demonstrate the numerical performance and effectiveness of the proposed methods

The Life and Work of D.H. Hyers, 1913-1997
No full textThe following is a sketch of the life and work of Donald Holmes Hyers, Professor Emeritus from the University of Southern California. The theorem put forth by Hyers in 1941 concerning linear functional equations has gained a great deal of interest over the past two decades. Hundreds of articles have been written citing his works, many of which have furthered the theorem. This paper contains a brief description of Hyers’ theorem, a biographical essay and an extensive bibliography of Hyers’ work and works citing the Hyers theorem or the D.H. Hyers–S.M. Ulam–Th.M. Rassias theorem or related subjects of almost the last three decades. The author of this paper is the grandson of D.H. Hyers

Environmental (waste) compliance control systems for UK SMEs
No full textWhile the ‘environment’ is often perceived as a heavily regulated area of business, in reality, directly-regulated businesses represent a small proportion of the business community. This study aimed to evaluate and outline potential improvements to compliance controls for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), particularly those involved in the waste sector. Forty-four SMEs from England were interviewed/audited between April-September 2008. Using a UK-based system as a case-in-point, the Environment Agency’s (EA) Operational Risk Appraisal (‘Opra’)/Compliance Assessment Report (CAR) system was analysed. Environmental compliance performance indicators and an initial assessment methodology for SMEs were developed. The study showed:• Compliance with permitting legislation was poor in many areas.• Regulatory authorities are either unable/failing to implement their enforcement policies or unable/failing to identify non-compliances due to the infrequency or limited nature of their inspections.• Improvements are needed to the EA Opra/CAR system – control measures are not fully taken into account when calculating risk.Recommendations to improve SME compliance controls include using internationally applicable general and specific compliance and non-compliance performance indicators, re-designing the Opra system and using an initial assessment methodology based on understanding the hazardousness of SME categories, compliance levels and operator competency.<br/
The Importance Of Sex In Marriage Reflected In D.H. Lawrence’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover Novel (1928): A Psychoanalytic Perspective
Full text linkThis study is about the importance of sex in marriage in Lady Chatterley’s Lover. The objectives of the study are conducted to identify the indicators of the need for sex of the major character, to describe the major character attempt to meet the need, and to reveal the underlying reason of why the major character did viewed from the psychoanalytic perspective. The object of the study is Lady Chatterley’s Lover by D.H. Lawrence. It used psychoanalytic perspective. This research is a descriptive qualitative research. The type of data in this study is a text that consists of words, phrases and sentences. There are two data sources in this study. The primary data source is Lady
Chatterley’s Lover by D.H. Lawrence. The secondary data source consists of the other data, which have a relationship with the study, such as some biography of
the author, and other relevant information. The result of the study shows the following conclusions. First, based on the structural analysis the author wants to deliver a message that the meeting of sexual need is important in marriage. Second, based on the psychoanalytic perspective, it clear that in this novel D.H. Lawrence describes psychological phenomena in which one is seeking for the sexual satisfaction from a person other than one‟s spouse
Quality assurance and learning technologies:intersecting agendas in UK higher education
No full textThis paper looks at developments in the use of learning technologies in UK higher education, particularly in recent years. It examines the agenda items for learning and teaching associated with the use of new technologies that have emerged in the context of the current agenda for quality assessment and assurance. The paper considers the ways in which the two agendas work in a complementary manner, and the ways in which they create tensions. Finally, it considers the likely path of future developments and considers a way forward in which existing tensions may be reconciled
