Redefining the feminine in Kathakali: A Case Study of Asti
No full textThis essay focuses on analysing the patriarchal nature of Kathakali, a dramatic performance form from the south Indian state of Kerala and the ways in which the female protagonist, Asti, from a new Kathakali play written by a male playwright, unsettles it. I would argue that Asti is an aberration from the long practiced patriarchal gender construct of the female employed by the performance in question. It is important to consider the character of Asti and study her place in the history of Kathakali because it’s political perspective on women remain somewhat unchanged through its four centuries of existence and development. Any gender specific research on Kathakali is scanty till date and scholars such as Phillip Zarrilli or Eugenio Barba focus on its performer training method. Given the fact that female characters or indeed female performers are limited in Kathakali, it is not altogether difficult to understand why such few research materials is produced on the subject. This study will examine why women characters in Kathakali occupy such inferior position and its reasons will be examined first, through the socio-cultural lens of Kerala where Kathakali emerges from and second, by enquiring the feminine in minukku, the term used to denote generic female roles in Kathakali, and why it is limited in scope to accommodate a wider range of female characters. In the same vein, the essay will also briefly overview the patriarchal nature of Kathakali performances. The third section on Asti will, then, discuss why she is not a typical minukku and the reasons for having to reinvent her entry, her characterisation and finally, her costume. The cultural landscape and social practices of Kerala are crucially linked to the performances in Kerala, such as Kathakali and the socio-cultural perspectives on women are well-reflected in the performance. One such aspect is the social perspective on the female characteristics that class a woman as either ‘good’ or ‘bad’. Strikingly similar is the distinction between ‘good’ and ‘bad’ in Kathakali. Kathakali plays and performance structures, I would argue, author the feminine of Kathakali by encapsulating the Kerala social norms in the form of minukku. The tripartite structure of this essay will, therefore, situate Asti outside the long patriarchal narrative of Kathakali. No critical feminist reading of any new Kathakali plays has so far been undertaken and this essay studies Kathakali’s slowly changing gender norms for the first time.</p

Experimental High-Frequency Parameter Identification of AC Electrical Motors
Get PDFIn order to predict conducted electromagnetic interference in inverter-motor drive systems, high-frequency (HF) motor models are requested and the involved parameters have to be available. In previous studies, the authors have presented an accurate HF model for induction motors and they have defined the procedures to identify the model parameters. In this paper, these results are extended to several types and sizes of industrial ac motors such as induction, synchronous reluctance (without interior permanent magnets), and brushless motors. The model parameter-identification procedure has been improved, and it is based on a least-squares data fitting applied to the measured magnitude and phase-frequency-response curves of the phase-to-ground and the phase-to-neutral impedances. The aim of this paper is to provide quick indications to select the suitable values of the HF model parameters, with reference to the size and type of the ac motor, to evaluate the HF voltage and current components in inverted-fed ac motor system

Evaluation of Radiation Thermal Resistances in Industrial Motors
Get PDFThis paper deals with the role of the radiation thermal resistances in industrial motors and describes a test set useful for the resistance evaluation. The test set is based on a vacuum chamber and on a numerical acquisition system, and the resistances are obtained by monitoring motor temperatures during a heating test. An analytical model that describes how the radiation resistance depends on the motor temperature is also provided. Experimental results obtained on a totally enclosed fan-cooled 150-W induction motor are shown and discussed
International Standards for the Induction Motor Efficiency Evaluation: a Critical Analysis of the Stray-Load Losses Determination
Get PDFMotor efficiency has to be measured or calculated in accordance with international standards. The most important standards are the IEEE 112-B, IEC 34-2, and JEC 3 . In this paper, a comparison of the measurement procedures defined by these international standards is reported, together with some comments on the prescribed methodologies. The comparison is based on experimental results obtained by tests on four general-purpose three-phase induction motors. The stray-load loss measurement represents a critical key for the correct evaluation of the motor efficiency. For this reason, a critical analysis of this type of losses has been performed. In particular, in order to understand which are the most critical quantities that influence their evaluation, the stray-load loss sensitivity to the measurement errors is analyzed. In the final part of the paper the temperature influence, on the conventional iron losses, is experimentally analyzed. The performed tests show that the temperature difference between the no-load test and the motor real operative conditions is not negligible
Personal Integrity of Islamic Counselor on Professional Ethics Commitment
Get PDFA system, method, technique, or scientific competence will not be efficient as long as it is not done by a counselor who has a personal quality and integrity. Ethics, behaviors and good personality which appropriate to Islamic Sharia values should be improved to make a qualified Islamic counselor. An Islamic counselor with integrity means an honest person with a strong character, including consistency in all actions. A counselor who has integrity toward commitment will be able to show a good performance on duties and accordance with the authority within the value and professional ethics. In this article, author will attempt to describe what is personal of counselor that can support the effectiveness of the guidance and counseling services, the professional ethics of counselor that provided by the guidance and counseling profession organization, and personal integrity that can be seen from the words and actions that counselor do in the daily life
