Full textAbstract:
Given the importance of informal ways of getting things done in postsocialist societies, research into the field of unwritten rules and informal practices has been slow to develop. In studying such rules and practices, the researcher often encounters skepticism or hostility stemming from the ways in which people relate to tacit agreements, or else she or he is greeted by an ambivalent smile of complicity—a knowing smile. This article draws a connection between knowing smiles and open secrets and argues that these notions illuminate a great deal about how the “grey areas” of social life function. It also suggests that such seemingly trivial aspects of everyday life can reveal profound features of social institutions and point in the direction of innovative research.

Exceptional moments of micro-strengths Micro strengths: How can we understand and target exceptional moments in relationships, and how can they be drawn on within relationships as a basis for positive change? A micro strength can be thought of as a moment that stands out within an interaction. It is more than the obvious moments of a shared smile or hug. It may be a moment where you experience a sense of understanding with another person, for example, a shared moment of calm or intuitively knowing that the other person is sad.

In 1999, Linda Tuhiwai Smith wrote that ‘The word ... ‘research’ is probably one of the dirtiest words in the indigenous world’s vocabulary. When mentioned in many indigenous contexts, it stirs up silence, it conjures up bad memories, it raises a smile that is knowing and distrustful.’ (1). Despite the efforts of many, anthropology in Aotearoa/New Zealand has a history of silence, possibly based on the memories of practitioners who, from the 1980s, lived through times of deep mistrust of anthropologists by Māori. As a student, then practitioner, of anthropology, I received many challenges to my status as an anthropologist and an indigenous academic from both indigenous and non-indigenous academics. Perhaps in order for anthropology to continue to have meaning for Māori and other indigenous peoples in Aotearoa, we need to thoroughly stir up that silence to see what lies beneath in order to fully engage in a truly meaningful relationship.

Olga Penton died of heart failure at her home in Sydney one evening in 1973. She was found the next morning sitting upright in an armchair, with a plate of cold chicken half-eaten on her lap, a knowing smile on her face, and looking a lot younger than her 76 years. This is an image that captures the cheerful stoicism of her last twenty years of life. Fifty years earlier, another sedentary image captures an earlier self: the image is of Olga sitting naked in a bath, presiding over an intellectual salon of writers and free-thinkers in the Brisbane flat she was sharing with her new husband, Brian Penton. It is hard to be sure whether this second image exactly corresponds to reality — neither of my informants was personally present at any of the bathroom salons, and both reported them as a spicy rumour rather than an observed fact — but whether true or not, we can say that the rumour expresses the ambience of intellectual sophistication and sexual daring that seems to have surrounded her at the time.

Non-verbal communication is the delivery of messages without words and gives meaning to verbal communication, where non-verbal communication is older than verbal communication because since we were born we have done it until the age of about 18 months, such as touch, smile, crying eyes, and so on. Without us knowing we have practiced it, it is no wonder, if we doubt someone, we are more confident in the nonverbal message (probably from his movements). This shows how important we are to learn the knowledge of non-verbal communication. This is what underlies the author performs Community Service (PKM) with the title "Communication Non-Verbal Communication Competence for People in the village of Mekarmukti, West Bandung". This extension activity was conducted to the community in the village of Mekarmukti, district. West Bandung. Community Service Activities has the purpose to produce the following outcomes: 1) Providing concrete knowledge and insight about non-verbal communication and its current development to the community in Mekarmukti Village, West Bandung Regency; 2) Providing comprehensive knowledge and insight on non-verbal communication concepts, as well as good communication tips. Method of PKM implementation conducted in this extension activity is ice breaking method; lecture method; and feedback collection methods.

Abstract The Zhuangzi is a book that opens to a virtual wilderness of interpretive possibilities begging for exploration by scholars and laypersons alike. What follows here is an adventuresome foray by one of the latter. As such, it is essentially an exercise in creative writing. Since it is our interpretive conclusion that this was precisely what Zhuangzi himself was about, we believe he would smile broadly upon this endeavor however far-afield its proclamations might be. This point is central within this essay. However we engage with Zhuangzi, whether as a dilettante or an academic, it is the engagement that matters most. Conclusions are secondary at best. This having been said, conclusions will be found herein. Ambiguity is the signature characteristic of Zhuangzi’s writing. Awareness of ambiguity as a defining characteristic of the human experience invites us to consider the importance of not-knowing, the thing-left-out, the usefulness of the useless, the prioritization of Yin over Yang, and, most importantly, the experience of inherent emptiness. For Zhuangzi, such an awareness invites a radical paradigm shift away from the cognitive to the visceral. It invites an embrace of emptiness that renders one free of all dependence on being a self in need of itself.

Full textAbstract:
Now, prevention of dental diseases in children is still remaining quite relevant. This is especially true for young children, because it is during this period that a permanent bite begins to develop, and its health depends on preventive measures provided at the time of teething and teeth mineralization. Successful treatment and prevention of caries and other dental diseases requires a rational health education approach and detailing of the mechanisms of its implementation. Health volunteering seems to be very promising and effective. The goal of the «Posmishka (Smile)» volunteering team is to teach children the basics of hygiene and oral care rules, to familiarize them with the structure and functions of teeth, to emphasize the importance of using basic and additional hygiene products, based on the theory of the perception channels by Neil Fleming (visual, auditory, kinesthetic). Children's attention should be focused on preventing the occurrence of dental diseases, not their treatment. Knowing about the children's fear of dentists, volunteers try to show in soft manner how and why a carious process occurs, why, how and where the doctor performs manipulations to preserve the tooth. Perhaps, when knowing the causes of the aetiology and pathogenesis of the caries process, they will begin to take a closer look at oral hygiene. A very important stage, in our opinion, is to familiarize children with the anatomical structure of the tooth, the functions of its tissues, the mechanism of the caries progression, as understanding the causes prevents consequences. We believe that preventative work should be done not only for children, but also for all who surround them: teaching staff, health care providers and parents. Therefore, health education among the children of organized groups (classes, for example) is a priority for the volunteering team «Posmishka», because despite the wide variety of dental products, the innovativeness in medical technologies, the availability of passive information, the prevalence of dental diseases is increasing.

Full textAbstract:
The name of Neeltje Jans comes from prehistoric times, born in the hidden Flemish and Dutch past, at the border of the Helle, now called the North Sea. The ‘hell’ (Helle, Houle, Ho¨lle, Holle, Harle) was the place of the dead, in the past, as the sea was the major cause of death. Neeltje Jans was the Gooddess of the sea, like Gai¨a was the mother of the earth. Neeltje Jans brought mythical security, stabilizing the emotion of anxiety in an unstable world without dikes and drainages. Rijkswaterstaat took over her role, producing security in living with water by technological means. Our twentieth century brought a technology that was admirable and powerful, but Neeltje Jans wept, as she had discovered that her intellectual child, called rationality, was blind-born. At first she kept her discovery secret, taking part in an unintended conspiracy of the twentieth century against the logic of feeling, which was called subjective and irrational. But blind rationality, pretending not to know what is quality and value, was going to loose the battle of the mind. In the recent development of the philosophy of technology, water is no longer an enemy, but a field of work for value and quality. This new development of Dutch water technology makes Neeltje Jans smile, her hidden logic has been recognized by the engineer and by a growing public encouragement. Almost half a million people come each year to share the promise of the philosophy of Neeltje Jans, along the line of the unconscious logic of feeling and without knowing consciously why. This paper intends to clear up the poetic mystery and the hidden steering of the logic of feeling behind the new technology of living with water.

Full textAbstract:
The appearance of Dr Vesco’s translation and study of Hokusai’s Ryakuga haya oshie, together with a full reproduction of the original book, is a matter of great excitement in the field of Japanese Studies. Hokusai has been known in Europe and North America for some 150 years. In his own country, he came to public attention about 1800, with youthful work produced under the name of Shunrô. He lived to the advanced age of 88, and when he died in 1849, he was one of the best-known artists in Japan. He was soon to be the best-known Japanese artist in the West, a status that he probably still holds. ‘Under the Great Wave off Kanagawa’ – often referred to simply as ‘Hokusai’s Great Wave’ (from the Thirty-six View of Mt Fuji) – is said to be the most immediately-recognisable piece of graphic design worldwide. Hokusai was a townsman living in a socially stratified society. He was not a member of the elite, though other famous artists were. He did neither depict elite topics, nor work for elite clients. Rather, Hokusai associated with the ‘Floating World’ (ukiyo) that is Edo’s leisure-time distractions. He also made views of his city, its surroundings, and the wider Japanese countryside, but he was not a great traveller, other than in his mind. Rather unrecognised is what Dr Vesco now brings to our attention. Hokusai saw his role as promoting the practice of art. Of course, he had his students, but as we see here, Hokusai also published out-reach volumes, aimed at introducing the joys of picture-making to amateurs who were not being formally instructed. The lessons were easy to follow, and also fun, as he reduced people animals and plants to basic shapes and formulae. Starting with the auspicious subject of Tang lions (kara shishi), Hokusai leads us through a range of topics, down to the demotic, such as clothes washing. Readers today will certainly find a smile crossing their face as they look through the pictures. Thanks to Dr Vesco’s careful translations, we can also understand the advice and commentaries supplied in Hokusai’s accompanying texts. An additional feature of Dr Vesco’s work will be of assistance to more specialist readers, as she has transcribed the original Japanese. This was no simple task, as it is written in abbreviated calligraphy (kuzushiji). At all levels, readers, art enthusiasts and those who love to create pictures will now have access to Hokusai’s most important study aid. We can delve into it, copy from, and chuckle at, just as people did when the volumes first appeared. Western readers might ponder something else: Ryakuga haya oshie appeared in 1812, as European countries were tearing themselves apart.

Balogh, Mary. Simply Magic: On a splendid August afternoon Susanna Osbourne is introduced to the most handsome man she has ever seen . . . and instantly feels the icy chill of recognition. Peter Edgeworth, Viscount Whitleaf, is utterly charming—and seemingly unaware that they have met before. With his knowing smile and seductive gaze, Peter acts the rake; but he stirs something in Susanna she has never felt before, a yearning that both frightens and dazzles her. Instantly she knows: this brash nobleman poses a threat to her heart . . . and to the secrets she guards so desperately. From the moment they meet, Peter is drawn to Susanna’s independence, dazzled by her sharp wit—he simply must have her. But the more he pursues, the more Susanna withdraws . . . until a sensual game of thrust-and-parry culminates in a glorious afternoon of passion. Now more determined than ever to keep her by his side, Peter begins to suspect that a tragic history still haunts Susanna. And as he moves closer to the truth, Peter is certain of one thing: he will defy the mysteries of her past for a future with this exquisite creature—all Susanna must do is trust him with the most precious secret of all. . . .

Full textAbstract:
In the late 1960s, LIFE magazine was one of the most widely read and influential periodicals in the world. Renowned for its photojournalism, the general-interest magazine covered all aspects of American life. The November 21, 1969, edition was no exception. It included a review of what would be The Beatles’ final studio album, a profile of Ohio State University head football coach Woody Hayes, and an advertisement for a commemorative book on that summer’s moon landing. It also featured an article on a little-known University of Chicago psychiatrist, Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, and her groundbreaking work with terminally ill patients. In an era when public discourse about death and dying was almost non-existent and when many physicians believed that a patient was better off not knowing his or her prognosis, Kübler-Ross was encouraging candid and open conversations with people about their impending deaths. Her innovative approach and courage to challenge the status quo drew the interest of LIFE editor Loudon Wainwright. His captivating story introducing Kübler-Ross and her new book, On Death and Dying, would forever change the national conversation about end-of-life and grief. The article described Kübler-Ross’s seminar teaching clinicians about the experiences of terminally ill patients. Physicians, nurses, chaplains, and medical students watched through a one-way mirror as she interviewed a twenty-two-year-old woman who had been diagnosed just two weeks earlier with leukemia, which at that time was almost always fatal. Large black-and-white pictures of the patient showed a vibrant and beautiful young woman with long hair and a wide smile. She looked nothing like someone close to death, which in some ways was the point. She talked about her diagnosis and understanding that leukemia would almost certainly kill her. Her willingness to openly discuss the prospect of her own death must have been astounding to those observing the interview. Kübler-Ross theorized that people facing their own mortality proceed through five stages prior to their death. In the first stage, the person is unable or unwilling to accept that he or she is going to die (Denial).

Full textAbstract:
Bob Gearheart emerged as Arcata’s marsh guru during the city’s long battle with the state water bureaucracy. This unpaid post demanded that Gearheart crank out proposals for wetland treatment at a frenetic pace, knowing that the city’s financial future depended on his work. He wore a smile, energized by the pressure. Gearheart’s son, Greg, grew up to become an environmental engineer working for the state water board. He earned his engineering degree at Humboldt State, studying with his father. He remembers his dad happily engaged during the battle for Arcata’s alternative treatment system, at the same time he was teaching a full load of classes. “My dad likes a fight,” Greg says. “He adapts well. People put an obstacle in front of him, and he figures out a way to make it look like it’s not really a problem. He makes it look like it was stupid on his opponent’s part to put the obstacle there.” In 1977, the elder Gearheart proposed a first: a wetland built to treat municipal wastewater to the standards required under the Clean Water Act. He possessed a serene certainty that he could make this untried system work. “I had no data until we did the pilot study,” he remembers, “but I was one hundred percent confident.” The power of aquatic plants to cleanse polluted water had first been tested in the 1950s by Käthe Seidel, a researcher at the Max Planck Institute in Germany. She showed that while some wild plants were killed off by waters tainted with phenol—a toxic organic compound used in making plastics—others had a remarkable ability to adapt. At first contact, effluent containing phenol caused bulrush stems to wither away, but the roots survived and in time sent up healthy new shoots. Bulrush, it turned out, could break down phenol, metabolizing it into the amino acids that build protein. The plant also thrived in domestic sewage. Seidel used carefully groomed cultures of wetland plants, rooted in beds of gravel or sand through which effluent flowed.

Full textAbstract:
Jake was enjoying his first few months of piano lessons and eager to make musical connections with all he was learning. At his last lesson, he learned the pattern of whole steps and half steps of a major scale, discovering the joy of playing his first black key in the G major scale. The teacher was hesitant to venture farther than C major and G major during that first introduction to scale structure. Jake couldn’t wait to share the discovery he had made “all by himself” during his week of piano exploration. He began his journey from the bottom C of the keyboard. He played the scale he had learned last week, jumping up five keys to G and playing that scale. Then with a wry smile, he ventured five more keys up to D, A, E, B, and so on, playing each discovered scale with imaginative fingering but accurate notes! Jake had discovered the basic scale relationship of the “circle of fifths” on his own. Jake’s curiosity and ability to find and solve a musical problem exemplifies a student who demonstrates musical intelligence. This term describes the process of developmental learning through music, which distinguishes it from music aptitude, which is based primarily on natural musical capacities. The concept of musical intelligence most likely dates back to the early Chinese and Greek theories of music and most decidedly is included in the texts of Carl Seashore. The renaissance of the term can be credited to Howard Gardner, a leading cognitive psychologist at the Graduate School of Education of Harvard University, who included musical intelligence as one of seven multiple intelligences in Frames of Mind: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences (1983). The publication of Gardner’s theory broadened the concept of intelligence from a single factor of general intelligence, or “g,” to seven separate intelligences, each unique to a specific domain. Actually, the idea of multiple intelligences is not new or novel. J. P. Guilford’s Structure of Intellect (1959,1967) includes over 120 different ways of knowing. Tests and curricular models based on this theory are prevalent in the field of gifted education.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter traces the development of a particular current of thought known by the label ‘pragmatism’ during the last part of the twentieth century and at the beginning of the twenty-first, and latterly associated with the work of Simon Blackburn and Huw Price. Three questions are addressed. First, how did this current of thought actually develop? Second, does this current of thought constitute a single, coherent, theoretical outlook? Third, does this current of thought constitute an attractive philosophical outlook? In answering these questions, attention is drawn to a tension between the two main proponents of this current of thought, namely the different attitudes they take to the naturalist ‘master narrative’ on which it depends.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter addresses the subject of embodiment—the aspect of the dramatic process in which actors breathe life into the characters they inhabit. I discuss how, through this breathing and this living, a new layer of reflexivity between research and creative practice is uncovered, and I suggest that the liminal act of embodying a character can evoke new questions and lead to the discovery of new epistemological frameworks in research. Discussing the auditions, rehearsals and first staged readings, or presentations of the musical, I show how the liveness of these collaborative processes served as a way of recovering experience—that is, reclaiming it, and taking its meaning to a new level. Focusing on a new group of participants—the actors—I illustrate the contributions that were made to the “Land of Smiles’ production through their own experiential knowing.

“‘I have no son Danny,’” Daniel said, with bitterness. “That’s what my father said to me when he was near death. Thirteen years ago, I go to see him in the hospital, and he’s there in the bed with tubes coming out of him. I go up to him and he says, ‘Who’s that?’ and I say, ‘It’s your son, Danny’, and he says, ‘Danny who? I have no son Danny.’” Daniel’s face bore traces of sadness and anger. “Just before he died he denied me.” Daniel Francis O’Conner, a spirited man of sixty-seven, sat perched in the middle of the couch in my bright, airy private-practice office. He had the time and resources to engage in weekly, open-ended psychotherapy with me. With a short white beard, sparkling blue eyes, a quick smile that lit up his whole face, and a readiness to laugh at himself and the world, Daniel had an equal readiness to hold himself and the world to high standards of generosity, morality, and justice. I looked forward to our meetings, in which Daniel moved from one story of his life to another with eloquence, grit, irony and humor like a true seanachaí , an Irish storyteller. A lifelong resident of Holyoke, a tough little city in Massachusetts known for its historic mills and factories, Daniel shared the feisty passion of its Irish-immigrant residents. He was married to his beloved wife, Molly, and they had two grown children, Brigid, age 30, and James, 25. A published poet who was newly retired from thirty-two years as an awardwinning high school English teacher and long retired from boxing, Daniel was exploring a new career as a psychotherapist. He had met me at a workshop on narrative psychiatry that I had given at The Family Institute of Cambridge (the one in which I had presented my work with Elena, from chapter 5), and wanted to work with me, with hopes of taking stock of what his legacy might be as he prepared to enter his seventies.

The acceptance of this criterion confronted them with the same problem: how to understand the Other as a subject with his own experience, if the existence and nature of the Other's experiences cannot be verified. Husserl tackled this problem in the Cartesian Meditations, but he could not reconcile the verifiability criterion with understanding the Other's feelings and sensations. Carnap's solution was to embrace behaviorism and eliminate the idea of private sensations, but behaviorism has well-known difficulties. Heidegger broke this impasse by suggesting that each person's being included being-with, an innate capacity for understanding the Other. To be human is to be "hardwired" to make sense of the Other without having to verify the Other's private sensations. I suggest that being-with emerged from an evolutionary imperative for conspecific animals to recognize each other and to coordinate their activities. Wittgenstein also rejected the verifiability criterion. He theorized that the meaning of a term is its usage and that terms about private sensations were meaningful because they have functions in our language-games. For example, "I'm in pain," like a cry of pain, functions to get the attention of others and motivate others to help. Wittgenstein's theory shows how Dasein's being-with includes "primitive" adaptive behavior such as cries, smiles, and threatening or playful gesture. As Dasein is acculturated, these behaviors are partially superseded by functionally equivalent linguistic expressions.

Together with ‘On Computable Numbers’, ‘Computing Machinery and Intelligence’ forms Turing’s best-known work. This elegant and sometimes amusing essay was originally published in 1950 in the leading philosophy journal Mind. Turing’s friend Robin Gandy (like Turing a mathematical logician) said that ‘Computing Machinery and Intelligence’. . . was intended not so much as a penetrating contribution to philosophy but as propaganda. Turing thought the time had come for philosophers and mathematicians and scientists to take seriously the fact that computers were not merely calculating engines but were capable of behaviour which must be accounted as intelligent; he sought to persuade people that this was so. He wrote this paper—unlike his mathematical papers—quickly and with enjoyment. I can remember him reading aloud to me some of the passages— always with a smile, sometimes with a giggle. The quality and originality of ‘Computing Machinery and Intelligence’ have earned it a place among the classics of philosophy of mind. ‘Computing Machinery and Intelligence’ contains Turing’s principal exposition of the famous ‘imitation game’ or Turing test. The test first appeared, in a restricted form, in the closing paragraphs of ‘Intelligent Machinery’ (Chapter 10). Chapters 13 and 14, dating from 1951 and 1952 respectively, contain further discussion and amplification; unpublished until 1999, this important additional material throws new light on how the Turing test is to be understood. The imitation game involves three participants: a computer, a human interrogator, and a human ‘foil’. The interrogator attempts to determine, by asking questions of the other two participants, which of them is the computer. All communication is via keyboard and screen, or an equivalent arrangement (Turing suggested a teleprinter link). The interrogator may ask questions as penetrating and wide-ranging as he or she likes, and the computer is permitted to do everything possible to force a wrong identification. (So the computer might answer ‘No’ in response to ‘Are you a computer?’ and might follow a request to multiply one large number by another with a long pause and a plausibly incorrect answer.) The foil must help the interrogator to make a correct identification.

Full textAbstract:
The integrity of the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) has to be demonstrated under the most severe type of loadings that can occur during the plant lifetime. The selection of the pressurized thermal shock (PTS) transients is questionable since no account is made of potential beneficial effect of the load history. If one considers a crack close to the inner wall of the vessel, the loading at elevated temperature will open the crack, then cooling will tend to close the crack and if a load is applied at low temperature, the fracture resistance of the cracked component will be much higher than predicted using toughness values at this temperature. This is known as the warm pre-stress (WPS) effect and has been well documented since decades ([1], [2]). A 3-year European Research & Development programme (SMILE) has been launched in January 2002 as part of the 5th Framework Programme of the European Atomic Energy Community (EURATOM) to comfort this phenomenon and develop methods of analysis for 3D configurations liable to experience significant local yielding [3]. This paper analyzes the WPS type experiments performed in SMILE on C(T) specimens and on the mock-up which consists in a hollow cylinder containing a total circumferential crack on the inner wall. The predictions, based on an extended version of the BEREMIN model appear to be good but slightly conservative.

Context: We present a noteworthy reminder of Wilson disease’s classical manifestations, which may become rarer in clinical practice as availability of genetic tests increases, allowing timely diagnosis and treatment. Case report: A 29 year-old woman developed progressive and asymmetric upper limb tremor and dystonia over 1 year, along with speech and feeding impairment in the last two weeks. Examination revealed segmental dystonia with risus sardonicus, open-jaw oromandibular and severe left arm dystonia, along with wing-beating tremor. Bilateral Kayser-Fleischer ring, low serum ceruloplasmin level, high urinary copper level, bilateral putaminal lesions on brain MRI and detection of ATP7B mutation confirmed Wilson disease (WD). A nasoenteric tube was inserted and D-penicillamine was started. Conclusion: This case illustrates the hallmark neuro-ophtalmological signs of WD: wing-beating tremor, risus sardonicus and Kayser-Fleischer ring. The former is probably associated with lesions in the dentato-rubro-thalamic pathway¹ and means a low frequency, high amplitude, posture-induced proximal arm tremor. Risus sardonicus means a fixed smile due to risorius muscle dystonia². Although it is a well-known manifestation of cephalic tetanus, it is also frequent in WD¹. Finally, the Kayser-Fleischer ring is caused by copper accumulation in the Descemet membrane and occurs in almost 100% of patients with neurological WD².

The nuclear power plants lifetime is strongly dependent of the guarantee of the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) integrity. Therefore, the RPV integrity has to be demonstrated under the most severe configuration, namely the Pressurized Thermal Shock induced by the Loss of Coolant Accident induced by a large break in the primary loop. For such a transient, the apparent risk of failure is maximum when the load is decreasing; the fracture resistance decreasing rate being stronger. However, such type of loading generates an increase of the fracture resistance as shown by numerous studies (Chell, 1980 – BEREMIN, 1981 – Smith et al., 2004). This is known as the warm pre-stress (WPS) effect. This beneficial effect on the resistance to brittle fracture is not accounted for in the French RCCM and RSEM codes (RCCM, 2000 – RSEM, 2005). EDF has launched several R&D actions with CEA and AREVA as well as with European partners (SMILE, 2001) to validate and model the WPS effect under RPV representative conditions. Proving the existence of this beneficial load history effect (designated as Warm Pre Stress WPS), in the case of a defective RPV in emergency and faulted conditions is the aim of the present paper. The demonstration is conducted in the case of cleavage fracture using an improved version of the BEREMIN model. As opposite to the classical Fracture Mechanics methodology, this approach allows to account for load history effects on cleavage. The study analyzes the behavior of a semi-elliptical under clad crack in the EoL core shell of a 900 MWe RPV for two loading cases: the large break Loss Of Coolant Accident transient and a small break LOCA inducing thermal fluctuations on the vessel inner wall. The WPS effect is evidenced by comparing the plasticity corrected SIF levels of two loadings for the same value of failure probability: the considered WPS loading and a virtual monotonously increasing load applied at the temperature at which the brittle fracture risk is estimated.
