The research examines the development of women's prison writing through the journal of the Kingston Prison for Women, Tightwire. The journal enabled the prisoners to articulate their experience of prison for themselves as a specific subject-group, as women and as…

Technological innovation requires a technical preparation in material, financial and human resources. However, without a clear corporate culture, the technical side of technological innovation will hardly develop in a satisfactory manner.
In this light, we analyze the origin of a…

The analogous techniques of photoactivation of fluorescence (PAF) and fluorescence recovery after photobleaching
(FRAP) have been applied previously to the study of actin dynamics in living cells. Traditionally, separate
experiments estimate the mobility of actin monomer or the lifetime of…

Thrust-producing harmonically oscillating foils are studied through force and power
measurements, as well as visualization data, to classify the principal characteristics of
the flow around and in the wake of the foil. Visualization data are obtained using
digital particle image…

Visualization studies of the flow behind an oscillating tapered cylinder are performed
at Reynolds numbers from 400 to 1500. The cylinder has taper ratio 40:1 and is
moving at constant forward speed U while being forced to oscillate harmonically
in…

Forces are measured at both ends of rigid cylinders with span 60 cm, performing
transverse oscillations within an oncoming stream of water, at Reynolds number
Re ~3800. Forced harmonic motions and free vibrations of uniform and tapered
cylinders are studied.…

In this work, we have applied the fractional Fourier transform to obtain the Fresnel diffraction patterns in a theoretical eye. The FRT approach to Fresnel diffraction is easily implemented in a Gullstrand-Emsley theoretical eye, and it allows us to obtain…

The exclusionary rule which prohibits references to parliamentary materials as an aid to statutory interpretation has been applied for decades in most common law jurisdictions. The House of Lords handed down its fundamental decision in Pepper v. Hart which allowed…

The technique of holographic inte rferometly used to visualize the ultrafiltration membrane
surroundings makes it possible to visualize solute retention and verifi whether or
not there is cake formation on the membrane surface during the ultrafiltration of bovine
serum albumin…

L'obligation d'accomandement (ou d'adaptation) oblige, dans certains cas, l'État, les personnes et les entreprises privées à modifier des normes, des pratiques ou des politiques légitimes et justifiées, qui s'appliquent sans distinction à tous, pour tenir compte des besoins particuliers de…
