    Eterna - Programs for tidal analysis and prediction

    No full text
    Eterna, the 'Earth tide data processing package', was created by the late Prof. Hans-Georg Wenzel at the Black Forest Observatory and the University of Karlsruhe in the 1990s. This collection of programs established one standard of tidal analysis and prediction in the Earth tide community. Originally distributed only in the form of executable binaries, source code started to be distributed in the community after Hans-Georg Wenzel passed away in 1999.Access to source code is essential in order to keep the program running on new computer platforms with recent compilers. Minor (and in a few cases major) modifications where applied by researchers to correct errors or support new features. This resulted in the unpleasant situation that different versions of the programs are circulated, where the relation to the original version is unclear (in particular with respect to source code modifications) and a clear statement is missing what holders of the source are allowed to do or not. Meanwhile (20 years after Eterna was first published) technical means are commonplace to publically distribute source code together with proper licensing and with each single modification being properly documented (such that the original author must not be blamed for mistakes introduced later).In the belief that it would be in the intention of Hans-Georg Wenzel to support the continued use of Eterna in the tidal community, while allowing a clear distinction between current modifications and his original version and in the consent with his widow, Marion Wenzel, we publish the source code under terms of the GNU General Public License on a server of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) which is the successor of the University of Karlsruhe.We present the software as now is available in a gitlab repository, documenting all changes applied to the original code. The software is complemented by data examples, which were distributed together with the original binary executable on CD-Rom

    Sociedades modernas, sociedades de obsolescência: a sociologia temporal de Hartmut Rosa / Modern societies, obsolescence societies: Hartmut Rosa's temporal sociology

    Resenha de: ROSA, Hartmut. Aceleração: a transformação das estruturas temporais na modernidade. São Paulo: Editora Unesp, 2019. Centrado na revisitação da modernidade a partir de uma perspectiva temporal, Hartmut Rosa sustenta o conceito de aceleração social como aspecto fundante do projeto moderno. Explorando diferentes variáveis causais para o conceito da aceleração social, a resenha examina as transformações das instituições morais, valorativas e políticas ocorridas ao longo do desenvolvimento histórico da modernidade como episódios induzidos pela obsolescência. Sendo esta um produto de campos de ação crescentemente cambiantes e acelerados, o autor mobiliza esse conceito para fundamentar inédita proposta de diferenciação entre a modernidade e a modernidade tardia como momentos históricos calcados em diferentes níveis de compressão espaço-temporal, estabilidade institucional e temporalização de projetos individuais e coletivos de futuro.***AbstractCentered on revisiting modernity from a temporal perspective, Hartmut Rosa supports the concept of social acceleration as a fundamental aspect of the modern project. Exploring different causal variables for the concept of social acceleration, the review examines the transformations of moral, valuative and political institutions that occurred during the historical development of modernity as episodes induced by obsolescence. As this is a product of increasingly changing and accelerated fields of action, the author mobilizes this concept to substantiate an unprecedented proposal for differentiation between modernity and late modernity as historical moments based on different levels of space-time compression, institutional stability and temporalization of individual and collective future projects

    Surveying silk fibre degradation by crystallinity determination: a study on the Tang-Dynasty silk treasure from Famen Temple, China

    No full text
    When Chinese archaeologists opened an unknown vault under the collapsed pagoda of Famen Temple near Xian (Shaanxi Province, NW China) in 1987, they found a vast amount of valuable silk textiles. The degraded textiles were part of a treasure comprising hundreds of artifacts deposited by Tang dynasty (ad 618–907) emperors as a gift to the temple. Run as a bilateral German-Chinese project, the Roemisch-Germanisches Zentralmuseum Mainz established a textile conservation laboratory in Shaanxi´s provincial capital Xian in 2001, joining numerous other laboratories that have existed there since the early 1990s.This preliminary study represents part of an ongoing investigation programme that accompanies the conservation work. The Tang dynasty silk is generally in a very poor state of preservation as a result of its long burial period. Large sections have only survived as an amorphous brown mass of fibre debris. Some parts are better preserved, however, offering the unique opportunity to study the whole range of degradation stages on ancient silks.This preliminary scientific investigation focuses on the determination of the silk fibres’ crystallinity and its relation to the ageing process. As we know from modern material, silk is mainly crystalline, albeit in a somewhat amorphous state. The methods of investigation used were X-ray diffraction (XRD) using synchrotron radiation, which is a new way to determine crystallinity of ancient silk fibres; and polarized Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) for the determination of crystallite orientation. Both methods were specifically devised to gain information on small single fibres
