Abstract:
AbstractAccording to luck egalitarianism, it is unjust if some are worse off than others through no fault or choice of their own. The most common criticism of luck egalitarianism is the ‘harshness objection’, which states that luck egalitarianism allows for too harsh consequences, as it fails to provide justification for why those responsible for their bad fate can be entitled to society's assistance. It has largely gone unnoticed that the harshness objection is open to a number of very different interpretations. We present four different interpretations of the harshness objection in which the problem pertains to counterintuitive implications, badness of outcome, disproportionality, or inconsistency, respectively. We analyse and discuss appropriate luck egalitarian replies. Disentangling these different versions clarifies what is at the heart of this dispute and reveals the point of the harshness objection. We conclude that only the inconsistency version involves a durable problem for luck egalitarianism.

Abstract:
The abundant writing on conscientious objection (CO) had kept one significant actor rather neglected—the state. Relatively unexplored is the question of how democracies shape their policies toward CO. This article wishes to address this gap, focusing in particular on states that maintain conscription, and examining what accounts for their different responses to CO. Based on the Israeli case study, while drawing on comparative insights from The Federal Republic of Germany and Switzerland during the Cold War, I argue that states’ treatment of CO depends primarily on the military’s status and the type of roles assigned to conscription. States in which these roles are mainly functional, and the military does not enjoy, accordingly, a high symbolic status will be more inclined to formally recognize CO than states in which the military fulfills civilian–social roles and enjoys a high symbolic status. Lack of recognition, however, does not necessarily imply harshness; states of the latter sort might nonetheless accommodate CO through unofficial means. Thus, when discussing the policy towards CO a distinction is ought to be made between accommodation and recognition.

Abstract:
This rejoinder to Roemer (this issue) examines Roemer's amendment to his EOp criterion, explains the similarities and differences between Roemer's approach to equality of opportunity and the economic literature inspired by the fair allocation theory, and proposes some clarifications on the compensation principle and the role of the reward principle in the definition of a responsibility-sensitive social criterion. It highlights the power of the ideal of respect for individual preferences with respect to the reward issue and the concern for potential harshness of the social criterion toward the individuals who fail to make good use of their opportunities. It discusses Roemer's objection against holding individuals responsible for their preferences.

Abstract:
A novel optimization technique for optimizing the damper top mount characteristics to improve vehicle ride comfort and harshness is developed. The proposed optimization technique employs a new combined objective function based on ride comfort, harshness, and impact harshness evaluation. A detailed and accurate damper top mount mathematical model is implemented inside a validated quarter vehicle model to provide a realistic simulation environment for the optimization study. The ride comfort and harshness of the quarter vehicle are evaluated by analyzing the body acceleration in different frequency ranges. In addition, the top mount deformation is considered as a penalty factor for the system performance. The influence of the ride comfort and harshness weighting parameters of the proposed objective function on the optimal damper top mount characteristics is studied. The dynamic stiffness of the damper top mount is used to describe the optimum damper top mount characteristics for different optimization case studies. The proposed optimization routine is able to find the optimum characteristics of the damper top mount which improve the ride comfort and the harshness performances together.

Abstract:
The impact harshness of cars is an important factor in ride comfort. Traditionally, impact harshness is evaluated via subjective measurements based on the experience of test drivers. Objective evaluations are more efficient and reproducible than subjective measurements. Thus, this paper develops an objective measure based on a few signal parameters, specifically the initial peak values and damping ratios of the major vibration modes. A method based on the continuous wavelet transform is presented for the measurement of damping ratios. The performance of the method for estimating damping ratios is illustrated by the use of synthetic data, while performance of the objective measure is assessed on the basis of a series of trials on real vehicles.

Abstract:
Product development cycle time is very important in automotive industry which is very competitive nowerdays. New products are introduced into the market with better designs in short period of time by carrying out different engineering analysis. This study is focused on analyzing the existing chassis design and the noise, vibration and harshness(NVH) characteristics are studied. Modeling of chassis structure is carried out using 3D modelling package CATIA V5 and finite element model is created by meshing using Hypermesh software. The main objective is to find the natural frequency and analyse the mode shape of the automotive chassis structure. Results of the analysis will help to study the dynamic behavior of the chassis structure with load application/real road condition and to improvise the car chassis structure assembly.

Abstract:
This piece builds upon the work of Dennis Hamm and Mikeal Parsons to compare the character Zacchaeus of Luke 19:1–10 to the rich host of a banquet from classical satire and related genres. In this category the diminutive tax collector joins a rogues’ gallery, including Nasidienus from Horace’s Satire 2.8 and Trimalchio from Petronius’ Satyricon. Those who grumble (γογγύζειν) about Jesus’ table fellowship should be understood as his fellow dining companions. The moralizing voice of the satirist is represented by these grumbling guests, whose harping is similar to that of the Pharisees. According to recent literary theory, the voice of the satirist, in this case a Pharisaic one, is undermined by its own harshness. By weakening the criticism of the satiric voice, Luke encourages identification with the sinner Zacchaeus and thus fosters the Gospel’s general objective of salvation of the lost.

Abstract:
Basing on the system engineering 7D design planning model included the seven aspects of contents: design ideas, design environment, design objective, design step, design content, design method and design quality assessment. Combined the 7D design planning with House of Quality (HOQ), the model of design objective planning model was presented. In the model the satisfied degree of customer was the optimization object. The customer needs were satisfied with the engineering characteristics. The customer needs were analyzed with the analytic hierarchy process. The correlation among engineering characteristics was considered through the improvement relation matrix. At the same time, each customer need was insured to improve with the limited resource. Contrasted with the general optimization model this design objective planning model took the correlation of engineering characteristics into account. This optimization model was applied successfully in the NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) improvement design of vehicle. The HOQ of NVH planning was established according to the four customer needs. The six engineering characteristics were confirmed corresponding to the customer needs. The results showed that the customer need degree achieved 75.53％. If the satisfied degree wanted to be improved the cost should be increased. In this design objective planning model the resource and technology were configured in reason. It could help the technician make the reasonable judgment.

Abstract:
The objective of this paper is to find out the trends and tendencies of metaphysical endeavor in Lalon’s song. Lalon shah popularly known as Lalon Fakir (1774-1890), was a Bengali mystic folk poet and singer as well as philosopher and humanist. Most of his songs were composed in orally and sung at the time of travelling. His songs dealt with the themes of love, religion, caste, faith, soul, god, death etc which can be viewed from the metaphysical point of view. The way he dealt his various issues in his songs demands our special concentration to investigate how ornamentally his songs were composed using metaphysical conceit, incongruous imagery, complexity and subtlety of thought, frequent use of paradox, and often by deliberate harshness or rigidity of expression. So, this study will try to shed lights on the theme, philosophy and style of Lalon’s song through the metaphysical perspective.

Abstract:
I uppsatsen presenterar jag “luck egalitarianism” och specifikt Dworkins teori om jämlika resurser. Målet med Dworkins teori är att sammanväva de två till synes motstridiga principerna om lika hänsyn och lika respekt. Dworkin försöker föra samman principerna genom att nå en fördelning som är ambitions-känslig samtidigt som den är talang-okänslig. Han försöker uppnå detta ideal genom att kombinera en fri marknad som visar lika respekt för medborgarnas valfrihet och ansvar, med en försäkringsmarknad som visar lika hänsyn till medborgarna genom möjligheten att teckna försäkring mot oförutsägbara konsekvenser under lika möjlighet och lika risk. Elizabeth S. Anderson påstår att Dworkins teori misslyckas i att kombinera principerna om lika hänsyn och lika respekt på ett rimligt sätt och presenterar två övergripande invändningar: hårdhetsinvändningen och förnedringsinvändningen. Den första invändningen (hårdhetsinvändingen) påstår att teorins ramverk för att fastslå vilka av de utsatta som har rätt till kompensation inte visar lika hänsyn till alla som är utsatta. Den andra invändningen (förnedringsinvändingen) påstår att grunderna för kompensation är förnedrande och inte visar lika respekt för alla medborgare. Målet med uppsatsen är att analysera Dworkins teori och undersöka om den vederläggs av Andersons invändningar. Den slutsats jag skall försvara är att så inte är fallet. Forskningsfrågan är följande: Påvisar Andersons invändningar att Dworkins teori om jämlika resurser inte visar lika hänsyn och respekt för alla medborgare?

Abstract:
AbstractCompetitive industrial transmission systems must perform most efficiently with reference to complex requirements and conflicting key performance indicators. This design challenge translates into a high-dimensional multi-objective optimization problem that requires complex algorithms and evaluation of computationally expensive simulations to predict physical system behavior and design robustness. Crucial for the design decision-making process is the characterization, ranking, and quantification of relevant sources of uncertainties. However, due to the strict time limits of product development loops, the overall computational burden of uncertainty quantification (UQ) may even drive state-of-the-art parallel computing resources to their limits. Efficient machine learning (ML) tools and techniques emphasizing high-fidelity simulation data-driven training will play a fundamental role in enabling UQ in the early-stage development phase.This investigation surveys UQ methods with a focus on noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) characteristics of transmission systems. Quasi-static 3D contact dynamic simulations are performed to evaluate the static transmission error (TE) of meshing gear pairs under different loading and boundary conditions. TE indicates NVH excitation and is typically used as an objective function in the early-stage design process. The limited system size allows large-scale design of experiments (DoE) and enables numerical studies of various UQ sampling and modeling techniques where the design parameters are treated as random variables associated with tolerances from manufacturing and assembly processes. The model accuracy of generalized polynomial chaos expansion (gPC) and Gaussian process regression (GPR) is evaluated and compared. The results of the methods are discussed to conclude efficient and scalable solution procedures for robust design optimization.

Abstract:
The central grassland region of North America (Fig. 1.1) is the largest contiguous grassland environment on earth. Prior to European settlement, it was a vast, treeless area characterized by dense head-high grasses in the wet eastern portion, and very short sparse grasses in the dry west. As settlers swept across the area, they replaced native grasslands with croplands, most intensively in the east, and less so in the west (Fig. 1.2). The most drought-prone and least productive areas have survived as native grasslands, and the shortgrass steppe occupies the warmest, driest, least productive locations. James Michener (1974) provided an apt description of the harshness of the shortgrass region in his book Centennial:… It is not a hospitable land, like that farther east in Kansas or back near the Appalachians. It is mean and gravelly and hard to work. It lacks an adequate topsoil for plowing. It is devoid of trees or easy shelter. A family could wander for weeks and never 4 nd enough wood to build a house. (p. 64)… The objective of this chapter is to introduce the shortgrass steppe (Fig. 1.3) and its record of ecological research. First we present an ecological history of the shortgrass steppe since the Tertiary, and provide the geographic and climatic context for the region. Second we describe the major research sites, and the history of the three major entities or programs that have shaped much of the science done in the shortgrass steppe: the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)–Agricultural Research Service (ARS), the International Biological Programme (IBP), and the Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) Program. Grasses have been an important component of the shortgrass steppe of North America since the Miocene (5–24 million years ago) (Axelrod, 1985; Stebbins, 1981). Before that, during the Paleocene and Eocene (34–65 million years ago), the vegetation was a mixture of temperate and tropical mesophytic forests. Two causes have been proposed as explanations for this ancient change from forest to grassland. First, global temperatures decreased rapidly during the Oligocene (24–34 million years ago), creating conditions for a drier climate. These drier conditions, combined with a renewal of the uplift of the Rocky Mountains that had begun during the Paleocene, left the Great Plains in a rain shadow.

The objective of this paper is to develop techniques to sub-group multiple responses of a system. The proposal is intended for explorative preprocessing steps prior to the execution of a more formal multi-objective optimization. The sub-grouping techniques are developed based on orthonormal expansions. Factor Analysis (FA) and Total Sensitivity Analysis (TSA) are suggested when the relationships among responses are linear and non-linear, respectively. Automotive road Noise Vibration and Harshness (NVH) data is used to illustrate the application of the proposed methodologies.

Abstract:
The Noise Vibration Harshness (NVH) behavior of engines is one of the predominant factors for market acceptance of vehicles. To reach this goal it is necessary to reduce the absolute noise level and also the noise level in specific frequency ranges. The design of radiating structures for minimal sound radiation is a multidisciplinary problem that involves complex objective functions and expensive computations. In this paper, genetic algorithm is used as a promising tool for numerical optimization of such problems. The objective of the study is to determine effective, general design methods for determining the optimal design of thin parts of I.C. engine that minimizes the total radiated acoustic power. Variable attached discrete masses are considered. Acoustic response is minimized either at a single frequency or first five natural frequencies. Radiated sound power is calculated using a boundary element method, in conjunction with a finite element solver ANSYS for the solution of the structural acoustical problem.

Abstract:
An aluminum structure has many advantages over steel for automotive application, but the combination of lower weight, with high torsional stiffness and good energy management performance in crash is perhaps the most beneficial. Hybrid architectures, consisting of a combination of aluminum products including stampings, extrusions (straight and hydroformed) and castings, are becoming more common. The Ford GT represents the first Ford Motor Company hybrid aluminum spaceframe. The frame is comprised of castings, extrusions and stamped, flat and roll-bonded, panels. All structural connections between the extrusions and the castings are fusion welded with the exception of the front and rear crush structures. Ford R&AE supported the Ford GT program in the joining and assembly of the hybrid aluminum body architecture, with responsibility for the development of the Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) process. Recognizing that the heat input from the GMA welding process is significant, it is necessary to understand the aluminum material properties after temperature exposure during welding. The frame is subject to further temperature exposure during manufacture during the painting operations. Additionally, those areas of the frame around the engine will be exposed to high temperatures in service. The objective of this study, in support of the Ford GT, was to evaluate the mechanical properties of GMA welded 6063-T6 extruded coupons after different heat treatments simulating the paint ovens during vehicle build and extreme engine temperatures when in service. This information was critical for use in the program Finite Element Models (FEM) developed for Noise, Vibration, and Harshness (NVH), Crash and Durability. The study was successful in showing that the tensile strength of the welded aluminum was not affected by thermal exposure for the range of different temperatures and times, chosen to represent vehicle build and in service temperature conditions. The most consistent results were obtained for tests simulating the paint bake (180 °C for 30 minutes). The ‘as welded’ and engine bay temperature exposures (24 hour at 150 °C and 200 °C) showed higher variability. The failure mode for the 24 hour exposures was in the weld, as compared to the HAZ for the other samples.
