A competently constructed incentive system ensures a high level of interest and satisfaction with the work activities of the staff, reducing costs and increasing production efficiency. The effectiveness of staff involvement largely depends on determining the motivational attitudes of candidates, identifying the dominant motivators of the applicant, which will save effort and time in dealing with many candidates, hire a specialist focused on achieving goals that do not run counter to the company’s policies. The article outlines the main aspects of assessing the motivation of potential employees. The measures on attraction of necessary quantity of the personnel from external and internal environment are offered. Research of motivational installations of candidates and employees of the industrial enterprise «Signal» Engels Design Bureau named after A.I. Glukharev Joint-Stock Company, on the basis of the data obtained, the values of candidates were determined depending on various parameters: age, position, on a territorial basis. The corporate values that are common to the employees of the enterprise and candidates in search of work are defined: decent wages, comfortable workplace, leadership professionalism, competent company policy, these factors were included in the corporate motivator map. In the area of staff incentives, knowledge of a variety of incentives is required, the ability to link incentives with motivations, and to receive evaluation information on the perception of incentives by candidates and employees to increase the efficiency of staff involvement and enrich the motivation system. The effectiveness of staff involvement can be increased by studying the motivational attitudes of candidates and selecting personnel at the initial stage, the motivational profile of which must match the company’s goals.

Full textAbstract:
The exact title of the JD 11 was: “stellar and interstellar lithium and primordial nucleosynthesis”. The large amount of work recently done about lithium provided an incentive for a discussion among the members of several commissions of the IAU. Lithium is a peculiar element. Since it is not produced in supernovae (at least such a production is not proven and would be quite different from the production of the other elements) its presence in old material is a legacy of the primordial nucleosynthesis. But lithium is a fragile element, and from a theoretical point of view, there are arguments tending to conclude that, in old stars, this legacy has been depleted. This difficult problem is areal challenge, an has been the motivation for many different works. The analysis of the lithium behavior in well known stars, of all kind of ages, metallicities, structures, peculiarities etc. is therefore extremely useful in order to understand the physicalprocesse at work for lithium depletion, and the reader will find here many up-to-date data. The analysis of lithium in interstellar material provides an essential information. Many works about lithium are in progress throughout the world on the different points of interest, so that the General Assembly of the IAU was an excellent occasion to have a review of the recent progresses made in different areas. A summary of (nearly) each communication made during the Joint Discussion 11 may be found hereafter. Longer summaries of the talks, and summaries of the posters will be published in a forthcoming volume of the Memorie of the Società Astronomica Italiana.

In this article the technique of creation of the mechanism of the differentiated compensation as effective factor is given in formation of positive motivation for the useful work of employees of health institutions, as the factor promoting mutual interest of various categories of employees in each other and in receiving a medical product of joint work. Approaches to expression are found in uniform numerical system of essentially various indicators of the final result of medical production: volume, qualities, timeliness, outcome. This allowed to reduce all of the four main characteristics of one polymer indicator of the final result of the activity of a doctor. As a result it became possible to establish a differentiated salary strictly adequate to the final result of work of a doctor, including scope of work, quality and timeliness of medical care, the outcome of the disease. Interrelations of various categories of medical workers and a share of their participation in uniform production are established. This allowed to determine in exact proportions the salary sizes in relation to the size of a salary of a doctor. The share importance of various factors on indicators of the final result of medical production is shown. The created mechanism of the differentiated compensation in modern social and economic conditions stirs up activity of each employee possessing different functions.

Full textAbstract:
Background Co-production of health and care involving patients, families of patients, and professionals in care processes can create joint learning about how to meet patients’ needs. Although barriers and facilitators to co-production have been examined previously in various health care contexts, the preconditions in Swedish chronic cardiac care contexts are yet to be explored. This study is set in the health system of the Swedish region of Jönköping County and is part of system-wide efforts to promote better health for persons with heart failure (HF). Objective The objective of this study was to test the usefulness of the Capability, Opportunity, and Motivation Behavior (COM-B) model when assessing the barriers to and facilitators of co-production of health and care perceived by patients with HF, family members of patients with HF, and professionals in a Swedish chronic cardiac care context as a guide for subsequent initiatives. Methods Data collection involved 1 focus group interview (FGI) with patients with HF (n=5), 1 FGI with family members of patients with HF (n=5), 1 FGI with professionals in primary care (n=7), and 1 FGI with professionals in cardiac care (n=4). In addition, patients with HF kept diaries of their thoughts regarding co-production. Using a deductive approach to content analysis, underpinned by the COM-B model, barriers and facilitators were categorized into capabilities, opportunities, and motivations to co-produce health and care. Results The participants showed limited understanding of co-production as a practice. They appeared to view it as a privilege to be offered to patients on top of traditional care and rarely as an approach for improving health care processes. The interviews revealed the limited health literacy among patients and the struggle of professionals to convey health information to these patients. Co-production was considered to be more resource-intensive than traditional care. Different expectations of stakeholders’ roles were revealed: professionals expected older patients not to want to co-produce health and care, and all participants expected professionals to be in charge of health care services. The family members’ position involved trying to balance their desire to support their relatives with understanding when, how, and with whom to co-produce. Presumed benefits motivated stakeholders: co-production was recognized to motivate patients to improve self-care. However, the participants recognized that motivation to get involved in health and care decisions varies over time among stakeholders. Conclusions Co-production can be facilitated by the stakeholders’ motivation. However, varying levels of understanding of co-production, patients’ limited health literacy, unease with power sharing between patients and professionals, and resource constraints are barriers that need to be managed to promote co-produced care and better health for persons living with HF. Further research is warranted to explore how to co-produce health care services with patients with HF and how leaders can facilitate the inevitable cultural change it requires and represents.

Full textAbstract:
An analysis of the concept of «human factor» for solving the problem of ensuring production safety showed that the understanding of the human factor as negative is widespread. Accidental or deliberate non-compliance with safety rules, inadequate situations, decisions, and actions of production participants from workers to directors of the enterprises are considered the main cause of accidents and injuries. Such one-sided approaches to the term and the corresponding managerial impacts on the human factor often do not improve, but worsen the situation, thereby increasing the production risk. In fact, the manifestations of the human factor in intentions, decisions, actions, and the results obtained can be both positive and negative in relation to the goals set, the established rules, the interests of individuals. In essence, the human factor of production is a direct or indirect human impact on other persons, technical devices and structures, technological process that causes certain changes in them. It is determined by the physical and organizational capabilities of a particular subject of production. The organization of production, as the interaction of people and technical means, is also a manifestation of the human factor of production, the basis and result of joint activity of business owners, senior managers of companies and enterprises, responsible employees of state controlling authority, conditioned by their will, motivation, qualification, and jurisdiction. Based on the established cause-and-effect relationships that form the concept of «human factor of production», an effective way of managing the human factor is proposed by determining the possibility of positive use of its potential. Joint and coordinated formation of conditions for safe and productive work, as well as timely risk control, allow managing the human factor in such a way as to ensure the safety and efficiency of production.

Full textAbstract:
The current state of agricultural integrated associations in Ukraine is considered. Their significant distribution is analyzed, the variety of forms of integration in the developed countries of the European Union and the USA is investigated, their crucial importance in ensuring food security of the country and significant contribution to international trade is proved. The experience of forming vertically integrated structures in agro-industrial complex is considered. It is proved that the creation of vertically integrated structures in the agro-industrial complex solves the problem of food security of the coun-try, increases food exports, reduces disparities between industries, optimizes price chains from agricultural producers to the final consumer. Attention is drawn to the relevance of the study of the cooperation current state in rural areas in terms of promoting its revival, including: legal requirements for the formation of a diversified agricultural economy as a basis for rural man-agement, farms development, agricultural cooperatives and other relatively new organizational forms of agricultural entre-preneurship. Since currently the state does not have enough funds to establish a wholesale market, it is advisable to create alternative, small organizational forms of wholesale sales in rural areas. This may be cooperation in the field of procurement and marketing of agricultural products. Such cooperatives are designed to perform certain marketing functions. Peculiarities of domestic and foreign integrated formations development, motivation of direct participants to joint production-economic and marketing actions, coordination and carrying out of joint economic, scientific-technical policy, formation of regional economic complexes are generalized. The advantages and disadvantages of cooperation among other organizational and legal forms, as well as the advantages and disadvantages provided by agricultural holdings to agricultural producers are considered. The generalization of the conducted researches gave the chance to investigate motivation of the basic partici-pants, ways of realization of integration processes in market conditions. Key words: integration, integrated formations, integration processes, investments, innovations, investment climate, cooperation, agriculture, market infrastructure, diversification, associations, argoholding.

Full textAbstract:
Samenvatting Hoe komt het dat werknemers in post-Fordistische arbeidsorganisaties vaak meer uren werken dan zij eigenlijk zouden willen? Dit verband tussen ‘nieuwe’ arbeidscondities en een ‘mismatch’ tussen feitelijke en gewenste arbeidsuren is eerder vastgesteld, maar de precieze verklaring is in het vage gebleven. Het omvangrijke Nederlandse Time Competition onderzoek van kort na de eeuwwisseling suggereerde met zijn naam dat concurrentie tussen werknemers het dragende mechanisme vormt, maar deze suggestie is in het project destijds niet nauwkeurig getoetst. Dat is onbevredigend, temeer omdat in recentere literatuur een alternatief mechanisme wordt voorgesteld dat de tijdgulzigheid juist zoekt in door teamproductie aangedreven doeloriëntatie. Een dergelijke ‘joint production motivation’ verdraagt zich slecht met door individuele incentives aangestuurde concurrentieprocessen. De data van het Time Competition project, met informatie over 1114 werknemers uit 30 organisaties, bieden een nog onbenutte mogelijkheid tot een rivaliserende toetsing van beide verklaringen. Deze neemt de vorm aan van een mediatie-analyse, waarin het tijdconcurrentiemechanisme zich moet bewijzen en de op samenwerking gebaseerde theorie de nulhypothese stelt. De laatste komt als duidelijke winnaar uit deze strijd naar voren.

The opportunity to see the fruit of scientific work in one’s own lifetime proved a compelling motivation to leave a productive academic career in biochemistry and join the pharmaceutical industry, the Merck Research Laboratories specifically. Beginning with work on benign prostatic hypertrophy, the work became involved with statins, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, and other areas of drug discovery. Taken from experiences at Merck and elsewhere, eleven adventure stories in drug discovery are presented, ten successes and one notable failure. It is emphasized that most of what scientists start in drug discovery eventually fails, but that pharmaceutical scientists are nonetheless enthusiastic about prospects for success in their work and dedicated to it.

Full textAbstract:
The study aims at evaluating the banking mergers as a tool to strengthen and modernize the Palestinian banking system by focusing on the national banks listed on the Palestine Stock Exchange using the descriptive-analytical approach as well as the inductive and deductive approaches. The study concludes that the circulars issued by the Palestine Monetary Authority mainly those which relate to the raising of the minimum capital of local banks, have a positive role, and were the main motivation towards these mergers. The mergers that took place in the Palestinian banking sector have resulted in a significant improvement in data and financial indicators as well as the competitiveness of domestic merged banks and reflected positively on the national economy. The study recommends the need to redouble the efforts of the Palestine Monetary Authority by using literary persuasion at certain times, and through the development of laws and regulations that encourage and stimulate mergers to create stronger banking entities that are capable of facing the challenges of competition and financial crises, and other banking risks, at other times. Moreover, national banks and large-scale expatriates must play a more active role in the process of economic development and work to maximize their economic role and expand the value of productive projects that require large funding through granting syndicated loans and establishing joint ventures.

Full textAbstract:
At the current stage, the main goal of higher education is the improvement of the information and educational environment, in which each student will build a personal trajectory of achieving individual self-realization in the chosen specialty and in society. The content of the concepts «information and communication culture», «interactive information and educational environment», «digital educational resources» has been clarified. The essence of the information and communication culture of higher education applicants is determined. The structure of information and communication culture, which includes value-motivational, information-technological and communicative components, is considered. The concepts of information and communication orientation and «information and communication competence» as components of information and communication culture are analyzed. The stages of involvement of education seekers in information and communication activities are determined. It has been proven that information and communication activities are carried out in the joint productive activity of teachers and students in higher education institutions. The role of the information and educational environment in the educational process of the institution of higher education, the role of the latest digital technologies, electronic training courses and requirements for them, methodical recommendations for using the resources of the information and education environment in the formation of the information and communication culture of future specialists as a component of professional culture are substantiated. The creation of an information and educational environment involves the development of software and technical tools (modules, services, databases), the development of the structure and levels of information and communication culture.

Full textAbstract:
Active European integration processes in the state, education and business determine relevance of the study. They pay special attention to the discipline «Foreign language for specific purposes» in the training of agricultural specialists. The purpose of this study is to consider the scientific and methodical aspects of formation of readiness for German-language professionally oriented communication among future agriculturists. Theoretical (analysis, systematization, generalization, modeling) and empirical methods were used to achieve this goal. They allowed to analyze the latest scientific research in the field of foreign language training, problems of readiness for foreign language communication, features of foreign language professionally oriented communication of agro-industrial enterprises` specialists. The analysis of the professional requirements for future farmers, scientific approaches to interpretation of the concept «readiness», modern concepts of foreign language teaching methods gave grounds to specify the concept of readiness for German-speaking professionally oriented communication of agriculturists, which is seen as the competence to use acquired knowledge, ability and skills for successful German-speaking professionally oriented communication. Analysis of the national experience of foreign language training of agricultural sector specialists shows that the main purpose of foreign languages studying in higher educational establishments is the training a specialist who can use the German language as a tool of professional activity and professional knowledge. In order to achieve this goal it is necessary to develop the linguistic, social-cultural, educational and professional components of German-speaking professionally oriented communicative competence. Communication is an integral part of the professional activities of specialists. It is based on general social and psychological patterns and focuses on the successful and effective implementation of professional duties, and includes the exchange of proposals, requirements, views, motives to solve specific problems, sign agreements or establish other relations between the subjects of joint activities. German-language professionally oriented communication has its linguistic features, namely: lexical (terms, scientific and technical phraseology, professionalism, jargon, abbreviations and acronyms), grammatical (nominal style, modal verbs, passive voice, sentence length) and stylistic (metaphor, comparison and epithets). According to the fundamental bases of foreign language training the model of formation of readiness for German-language professionally oriented communication among future agriculturists is proposed, based on the peculiarities of teaching foreign languages in agricultural universities and the specificity of professionally oriented communication of specialists in the agricultural sector. It consists of the following blocks: motivational-target, theoretical-methodological, content-technological and productive-estimated. The effectiveness of the model depends on such factors as: the organization of the appropriate language environment, modeling of professional situations in the classroom and increase motivation for professionally oriented communication. The results of the study are to determine the place of formation of readiness for foreign language communication in the professional education of future farmers, to determine the linguistic features of German-language communication of agronomists, to substantiate the organizational and pedagogical conditions of German-language training and create an appropriate model. The formation of readiness for professionally oriented communication in a foreign language is a systematic, long-term process that involves the development of traditional professional ideas, professional thinking and professional behavior.

In a society of global mobility and flows of refugees and internally displaced people, the question of dignity is critical. This In this chapter I ask what characterises dignity among newly arrived youth in their everyday lives at school in Norway. Newly arrived youth are in a fragile state in becoming well-integrated citizens and a productive part of society. These young people have a past to cope with, a present to orient themselves in, and they are also are obliged to succeed in the future. Their dignity is due to their possibilities to act in a complex world. This chapter takes a starting point in the data material from participant observation in a so-called “introduction class” in Norway for newly arrived youth. An introduction class is a first phase of schooling offered prior to a transferal to local, public schools. I present an everyday situation as this transfer takes place, and read it through the lens of Deleuze and Guattaris posthuman ethics. More than predefined given rights, dignity is explored as experiences of equality and as possibilities to act in everyday lives. The material shows high motivation and anxieties of pupils and teachers in the transfer process to local schools. The prerequisites for joining their local school classes, however, is not clear for the pupils. The teachers encourage the pupils to work hard and suggest a number of actions in order to join regular schools and becoming so-called “ordinary”. The analyses conclude that equality seems a high, but hidden standard. The results may be that in practice, pupils are not treated as equals, and that the ideals of dignity do not seem relevant. These findings point out a lack of relevant concepts of dignity in school. In spite of high standards of dignity in the curriculum, the newly arrived youth may suffer from inequalities. I argue that there is a need for a debate on the concepts of dignity in school. I promote a dynamic understanding of dignity, embracing diversity and the specific needs of the pupils, as well as strengthening the teacher’s agency.

Full textAbstract:
In the first quarter of the 21st century the humanity is forced to live in a complicated period of adaptation to the new conditions brought about by the intrusion and rapid spreading of mutated variants of a previously unknown respiratory virus SARS-CoV-2, which often causes severe disease form and causes death results. “Pandemic COVID-19, that enveloped modern world, placed the society on the verge of global challenges in different spheres of human existence. Because of this nowadays, like never before, there is a problem to continue an educational process in different levels establishments in the quarantine conditions. Society in general and pedagogical community in particular were not ready for these events, because of what the search for effective methods and techniques of educating students became more intense. When used wisely, the crisis in any sphere of human activities becomes a push for progress. Ukrainian education is now moving along this road, often through attempts and mistakes, distinguishing effective forms, methods and means of education” [3, p. 43]. Because of the pandemic all forms of educational interaction between teachers and students: lessons, lectures, practical lessons, laboratory lessons, different consultations, tests, exams – were forced to be conducted in distance form. It caused a stressful situation for teachers as well as students, since any innovation needs a lot of intellectual, psychological, emotional and time efforts. The teachers were faced with a task to organize distance educational process by means of electronic content transmission with the help of all accessible instruments for creating communication. Certainly, not all teachers were ready for this, since a lot of acknowledged in their field scientists and pedagogues were faced with the need to create electronic educational resources and an urgent learning of digital platforms and services. This problem was especially meaningful for humanists, for elderly, who, before the introduction of distance learning avoided the use of gadgets, and particularly – the creation of their own intellectual products with their help. They did not have basic skills of the work in digital environment, elementary technical knowledge and time to master new instruments and technologies, to understand the approaches for online transformation of a usual educational process etc. Anxiety, lack of confidence, confusion of the pedagogues, which can be noticed in the beginning of the quarantine, gradually changed into the mastering of online technologies, into the transformation of usual methodics of disciplines teaching, into the transfer of the classroom from real dimension into a virtual one etc. However, even now the pedagogical society is in search of the ways to heighten the results and effectiveness of educational process, the development of optimal methods for teaching natural sciences and the humanities. There is a lack of experience, the theoretical basis of distance learning as the main form of getting the knowledge by the students in crisis situations, the formation of proper skills are now in the process of defining and distinguishing, while practical pedagogues are called to give their intellectual contribution into the educational process and to give the materials for the analysis and development of the theoretical conclusions, based on which they can offer a new, modernized didactics. During the last decade distance learning became one of the productive and effective forms of the interaction between the pedagogues and students. Its advantages are unquestionable, since it enables to freely join the education in the most prestige establishments of Ukraine and the world, to become the participants of the video conferences conducted by the most reputable scientists and pedagogues, to pass exams, which give space for the further education etc. The processes of introducing the technologies of distance education in Ukraine were conducted mainly in high schools where the students have a high level of motivation to the education. Distance learning spread with new force because of today’s challenge, which invaded all the world – the emergence and fast spreading of the virus SARS-CoV-2, contagious and deathly one. To keep the people from having the disease and creating social distancing the governments of most of the countries introduced a strict quarantine, which, among other safety precautions, meant the distance form of work for educational establishments. It made the pedagogues of secondary and high levels of education to quickly master Internet platforms and other tools of distance interaction. Accumulated practical pedagogical experience of widely introduced distance learning needs theoretic work and generalizing to correct the didactic theory and practice. That is why it is important for experienced teachers to demonstrate the results of their own searching, conclusions and methodological recommendations. The possibilities of distance learning tools are very wide and the better the pedagogue masters it, the more perfect his/her didactic system, as well as the educational process, becomes. Surely, you cannot interchange “live” communication with the students by the distance technologies, that is why we look at distance learning as a temporary process, however its elements have introduced themselves into our life and will not be deleted.Based on our own experience of pedagogical activities in the pandemic conditions, we consider it suitable to demonstrate methodological recommendation for increasing the effectiveness of learning process: to use different educational web-resources and online platforms, interactive exercises, virtual blackboards etc.; to give the students the links for multimedia materials, educational video films, video and audio recordings of lectures and practical lessons to understand educational material; to keep feedback you can suggest your students to use online testing; to analyze and assess all types of tests, practical works, tasks and other kinds of individual work; to conduct extra individual online consultations; during the conference to work no more than 30 minutes with a little break afterwards; to use interactive methods to stir up the mental activities of the students; to use the system of hyperlinks for extra informational materials; to choose the tasks that heighten educational motivation of the students; you should organize group work for communication between your students using distance learning tools.

Sorption enhanced steam reforming of propane over Ni catalyst using in-situ carbonation of CaO provides both carbon capture, and enhanced H2 content in the product gas, and enhanced carbon conversion efficiency. Choosing propane over methane for sorption enhanced reforming provides easier fuel handling capability and higher throughput of H2 per unit volume of fuel. Such advantages help in building domestic scale hydrogen production source for sustainable energy production. The effect of propane addition on CaO carbonation and poisoning possibilities in reformation integrated with CO2 capture is explored in a packed-bed reactor. The motivation of propane addition is to model petroleum gas to address the feasibility of carbon capture integration with hydrocarbon reforming processes. Initially, different partial pressures of steam and propane will be used to study the kinetic parameters in a fixed bed reactor at different temperatures. The formed kinetic models will be used to compare the integrated CO2 capture results and the thermodynamic results to evaluate the efficiencies of such process. Higher temperatures provide better conversion efficiency, but the equilibrium of CaO carbonation suggests steam reforming enhancement and CO2 capture needs to be below 1073 K in order to avoid the backward reaction of CaCO3 releasing CO2. The balance between endothermic reformation reaction and exothermic water-gas shift and CaO carbonation reactions is the optimizing parameter for improved conversion to high H2 content. Temperatures higher than 873 K provided higher conversion with lower CO2 capture and H2 content while lower than 873 K provided lower methane conversion and higher CO2 capture and H2 content. Increase in steam to carbon ratio increased CH4 conversion and reduced CO content without affecting sorption with no further reduction in CO2 observed for most of the sorption cycle. These results supplement the available data in the literature to provide superior reaction conditions to improve the process efficiency in hydrogen production.

Kanazawa Institute of Technology (hereinafter KIT) started its education reform in April 1995. The basic principle behind the reform is to develop students who can learn autonomously. The idea comes from education inadequacies up to that time, where instructors “crammed” knowledge into students. KIT established the “Factory for Dreams and Ideas” (hereinafter “Yumekobo” which is the original Japanese name of the facility), a facility open to all KIT students. There they can create things any time they like. The students can utilize “Yumekobo” freely, in the same manner as a library. In Japan, the national holidays and Sundays total sixty-five days in a year leaving three hundred days for potential use of “Yumekobo”. University classes are in session one hundred and fifty days. This means it is necessary for KIT professors and instructors to come up with good strategies to have the students spend the remaining one hundred days in a productive way that will help students to raise their academic performance. To facilitate increased performance, KIT built a library center in 1982. There, learning takes place mainly through reading books. However, we felt that another new facility to stimulate students’ interest in creating things would be an excellent way to motivate further learning for the students. Here the author will explain present state of “Yumekobo” and how it has helped students continually seek to implement their ideas, especially through team activities.

DNV is currently running a Joint Industry Project, “NorMoor JIP”, on calibration of safety factors for mooring lines together with several oil companies, engineering companies, rig-owners, manufacturers of mooring line components and Norwegian authorities. Our motivation for initiating a study on mooring line safety factors started out with questions raised with regards to the safety level given by the Norwegian regulations. However, this is equally important for other mooring regulations like ISO, API and class-regulations. What we see is that the mooring standards are interpreted and applied in different ways. The reliability level implied by the regulations is not known, and the present safety factors were set when frequency domain analysis was prevalent while time domain analysis is often applied today. DNV carried out the DeepMoor JIP [9] during 1995–2000 using frequency domain analysis and reliability-based calibration. Now, a decade later, the increase in computing capacity makes it feasible to carry out a similar calibration for time-domain analysis of the mooring systems. The objective of the project work is to investigate and compare the characteristic line tension calculated according to design standards with the annual extreme value distribution of the line tension. Further, to calibrate safety factors for mooring line design for the ultimate limit state (ULS) as a function of the target probability of failure. The original proposal for this JIP included calculations for chain and wire rope moorings on a typical drill rig and a turret moored FPSO at three different water depths at Haltenbanken. However, since this JIP has been very well received in the industry, the scope has been extended to include calculations for a production semisubmersible, for fibre rope systems and for Gulf of Mexico environmental conditions. This paper will focus on the reasons for doing this calibration study, and the importance of seeking to agree on unified calculation recipes and requirements. Preliminary results for characteristic tension and annual extreme value distributions of tension for some designs are presented and discussed. The calibration of safety factors will be carried out later in the project when all designs are finalized.

There is an important need to prepare preservice teachers for the teaching of statistics. We will describe an experiment set up to achieve effective teacher training in statistics in the setting of an Italian university. Student–teachers had to prepare lessons using a real data set collected from the Italian mail services. Not only did they look into all the usual basic concepts of statistics, but they also questioned and dealt with doubts and errors their pupils put forth. They discovered the richness of the concepts, the content of descriptive statistics and the basic analyses of observed data. This experiment showed that the data, although very simple, is rich and productive, and that effective teacher training can be set up even with modest resources when there is determination and motivation.

In electronics assembly, the convection based soldering technologies in the production lines consumes massive resources and energy. The recent advancements in soldering technologies consume comparatively higher resources and needs to be optimized for resource efficient production which is also the motivation for the present work. This study is devoted to quantify the resource consumption and qualify this consumption through exergy flows in an over-pressure reflow technology as an energy intensive process in electronics manufacturing. The analysis implies on a big saving potential for energy consumption specifically during the over-pressure process which also defines the void reduction quality of solder joints. Exergy efficiency is the fraction of the work potential of the heat that is converted to work, and it illustrates the quality of consumed resources during the soldering oven process. Shortening the production lead-time, and increasing the production rate increase the efficiency of exergy and prevents wastage of usable energy. Furthermore, the set-up improvements for the temperature profiles are necessary, and the changes toward developing new technologies in pre-heating and over-pressure chamber zones are mandatory if a high efficiency of resources used is expected.

Abstract DNV is currently running a Joint Industry Project, NorMoor JIP, which is now approaching the end of phase 3. In this phase the fatigue limit state (FLS) of mooring lines with studless chains for permanent units has got the main attention. Phases 1 and 2 was covering the ultimate limit state (ULS) and accidental limit state (ALS) respectively. The NorMoor JIP has participants from energy companies, engineering companies, rig-owners, manufacturers and marine authorities. It is a global study covering Gulf of Mexico, Northern Europe and Brazil waters. Thus, areas with hurricanes, winter storms and combinations of wind sea and swell are covered. The results from the study will be applicable to most locations around the world, except for areas with squall. Our motivation for initiating a study on mooring line reliability was that all the global standards (API, ISO, DNV, others) are mostly based on work from late 1990s, when frequency domain analysis was prevalent, and the reliability level implied by the codes was not known. With this backdrop NorMoor Phase 1 and 2 was initiated, and recommendations on more recent and advanced analysis methodology and accompanying safety factors for ULS and ALS was developed. For FLS DNV calibrated safety factors for permanently moored units using frequency domain calculations in 1998. Now two decades later the age of the fleet of the world’s production units is growing, and FLS is the governing limit state for life extension. The NorMoor JIP Phase 3 was initiated to ensure that the FLS code provides consistent and accurate safety level, and to see if improvements could be made to the analysis methodology. Phase 1 and 2 of the NorMoor JIP has shown that more cost-effective mooring systems can be obtained, without jeopardizing the safety level. Further potential for cost optimization of mooring designs has been investigated in Phase 3 by improving the FLS code. The focus in the present paper is the methodology and application of structural reliability analysis for mooring line fatigue where the probability of fatigue failure is calculated as function of safety factor. The paper also includes the subsequent calibration of a fatigue safety factor and a recommendation for a revised fatigue design procedure. A series of 3 papers is published at the OMAE2022 documenting the work done in the NorMoor Phase 3 on the fatigue limit state of mooring lines. The deterministic fatigue analysis method is supported by an accompanying paper at this conference, OMAE2022-81441, in which an importance sampling technique developed in the NorMoor JIP is documented to provide the most accurate fatigue estimates for the minimum of sea states analysed. Furthermore, another accompanying paper, OMAE2022-81465, provides statistical analysis results of a comprehensive database of fatigue test data, including both new and used studless chains. With this input, it has been possible implement an improved fatigue analysis methodology that also accounts for the mean loads as well as degradation based on extent of corrosion. The present work provides a unique and comprehensive set of results, where advanced reliability methods are used to calibrate a mooring design code where the mooring line tensions are calculated in the time domain. The results provide a basis for regulators, such as ISO, to update their rules. The paper concludes with a recommendation for a revised fatigue design procedure, and the plan is to implement this in the next revision of DNV-OS-E301.

Abstract Joining soft polymers and metals is receiving increasing attention in both industry and academia to enable the manufacturing of innovative products. One motivation arises from the production of next-generation heat exchanges, the structure of which is primarily composed of polymers and metals. Waste heat coming from low temperature exhaust gas stream is significant in industries in the U.S. However, traditional heat exchangers that are available to recover heat in the presence of small temperature difference are large and costly, restricting the wide application of such heat exchangers. To address this challenge, a hybrid materials design is proposed to achieve a balance between thermal conductivity and mechanical strength. High quality requirement induced by the changing operating conditions necessitates a strong bonding between polymers and copper. In this research, the possibility of using ultrasonic welding, which is conventionally employed to join dissimilar or similar metal layers, is explored. Preliminary results from welding experiments and tensile shear tests reveal that two bonding modes exist in the welding of PET and copper. Furthermore, analysis of power signals collected during welding shows that one can potentially monitor and optimize welding processes using monitoring signals. It is concluded from this study that ultrasonic welding has excellent potential in joining soft polymers and metals. Future work is also discussed on the process improvement and mechanism investigation.

Full textAbstract:
Most of the serious weldment failures lead to catastrophic consequences in terms of damage to other equipment, loss of production, and risks to workers’ health and safety. Hence there is motivation to find margin between safety and disaster. This necessitates guaranteeing the integrity of a welded structure even if a crack is present. Therefore influence of the material inhomogenity and residual stresses on deformation and fracture behavior needs to be described precisely. A comparison of the applied load with a convenient material parameter is necessary for this purpose. Fracture mechanics parameters J integral & CTOD have attracted great interest in recent years. In case of base materials, fracture mechanics works quite well, but some specific problems occur if fracture mechanics principles are applied when examining the toughness properties of welded joints. These problems are mainly caused by the large difference in material properties and residual stresses. Existing fracture toughness testing can predict fracture behavior, but does not sufficiently address the problem associated with weldment testing. Three SENB duplex stainless steel weldment specimens were tested as per ASTM E1820. This standard is not recommended for weldment, but since no standard is available for testing duplex stainless steel weldment, authors preferred to use it as reference. The aim of this work is to explore the possibility of using the test results in the reliable prediction of weldment fracture and its correlation with microstructure and hardness.

The current program for Mechanical Engineering at the RWTH Aachen University in Germany has more than 1500 students enrolled. Lego Mindstorms’ NXT Robots are fully integrated in the current Engineering Education stream to help students practically apply theoretical concepts. The courses Communication and Organizational Development (KOE) and Computer Science in Mechanical Engineering 1 (INFO1), provided by the interdisciplinary institute cluster IMA/ZLW, follow a newly-designed “blended learning” approach. This institute cluster is composed of the Institute of Information Management in Mechanical Engineering (IMA) and the Center for Learning and Knowledge Management (ZLW). These institutes are currently within the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at RWTH Aachen University. Two years ago, the course KOE was redesigned and redirected towards a “Flipped Classroom” concept by initiating online lectures and a discussion class. Thus, the tutorial class ROBOFLEX as part of the KOE curriculum is introduced. ROBOFLEX is a two-stage business simulation that enables students to experience realistic virtual communication within computer science and engineering disciplines. Students are divided into groups of about thirty people, and become entrepreneurs and founders of start-ups that specialize in the production of innovative robots for the automotive industry. They create these robots using Lego Mindstorms’ NXT. Since its conception, the course INFO1 has been accompanied by a lab component, where students apply the concepts taught in class in a team-focused software design project. In 2011, the lab concept was changed into a two-stage robotics programming project based on Lego Mindstorms’ NXT Robots and the Java programming language. In the first stage, students practice the fundamental programming concepts that are presented in the lecture by completing a series of exercises in a self-paced manner. The second stage focuses on applied problem-solving. In this stage, pairs of students apply the previously-learned programming concepts to program a “pick-and-place” robot that is equipped with various sensors. The integration of Lego Mindstorms’ NXT Robots into these courses also join the concepts of the two described courses. While KOE delivers organizational and communicational skills, INFO1 provides technical and domain-specific skills. Here, the robots represent the connecting element. The problem-based second stage of INFO1 benefits from the skills that are taught in KOE. Because INFO1 is scheduled in the term following the KOE, it offers a direct opportunity for students to transfer the KOE skill set from the lecture where it was taught into a new context that is primarily concerned with a different subject. Both classes have been evaluated and developed independently in the past. Since last year’s introduction of ROBOFLEX in KOE, synergies between both lectures are becoming a main component of their further developments. In this paper the recent developments in both courses will be compared and discussed. Specific measurable effects concerning learning capability, motivation and learning endurance are being portrayed by using blended learning approaches.
