Full textAbstract:
Social Impact Bonds (SIBs) have alternatively been portrayed as a promising tool to improve the functioning of welfare systems, or as an instrument of neoliberalism that threatens to undermine them. Recently, a more nuanced understanding of the promises as well as pitfalls of SIBs has developed, as both practical experiences and published empirical evidence about implemented SIBs have increased in number. We aim to contribute to the development of such an understanding by means of a combination of qualitative and quantitative text analysis. In doing so, we analyse a comprehensive sample of 51 practitioner reports on SIBs. We identify two key paradoxes of SIBs. These paradoxes centre on statements that cannot both hold true for the very same SIB: (1) flexible but evidence-based services and (2) cost-saving risk transfer to private investors. We conclude by discussing how those paradoxes have been resolved in existing SIBs so far, which strategies of de-paradoxification may turn out paramount in future, and how positive aspects of SIBs can be preserved while defusing their more problematic ones.

Full textAbstract:
Spot welding of 1.4307 material of 1+1 mm thickness is tuned out excellently by the enterprise ROSTEX – at the changes only of the welding current it was managed to approach the value of thickness achieved by enterprise ROSTEX. At the welding of 1.4307 material of 2+2 mm thickness it was managed to achieve more strength under welding parameters: Fs = 5500N, Is = 8,964 kA, ts = 10 Per. Spot welding of 1.0330 material revealed a possibility in proceeding with welding current increasing which could stand for the weld strength increasing (not necessarily) – a limit where material could splash was not achieved. The soft mode welding is not convenient for up-to date spot welding because the material is extremely affected by heat at the long welding time, it also leads to huge thermal losses, thermal effect and distortion of electrodes (electrodes life diminishing). Soft mode welding is not expedient even economically. In accordance with economic comparison, see chart 27, page 64 – for instance welding of 1.4307 material with 1+1 mm thickness at 1000 welds there is difference of 644 Czech crowns between the hard and the soft mode welding in benefit to the hard mode.

Full textAbstract:
Yllättävät koneen tai muun teknisen järjestelmän vikauttavat ongelmat ovat tapauskohtaisia, mutta niiden ratkaisua on mahdollista ideoida tekniikan eri alojen käytännöistä. Tässä työssä tarkastellaan analogian käyttöä ja mahdollisuuksia tutkimusmenetelmänä kahden tekniikan eri alan ongelman ratkaisuissa. Esimerkkinä opinnäytetyössä käytetään perämoottorin murtosokkaa, joka estää ulko- puolisen häiriön leviämisen moottoriin. Tiedonsiirto-ongelmissa yllättäviä, joskus jopa koko järjestelmän lamauttavia, yhdessä kohdassa esiintyviä virheitä kutsutaan SPOF-ongelmaksi. Opinnäytetyössä otetaan kirjallisuudesta esimerkkejä sekä perämoottorin murtosokan että SPOF-ilmiön ominaisuuksista. Lähtökohtana on, että murtosokka on ratkaisu ongelmaan, SPOF-ilmiö puolestaan on ongelma, jonka ratkaisemisessa voitaisiin käyttää murtosokan toiminnallisia ominaisuuksia eli niin sanottuja ”ohjelmallisia murtosokkia”The shear pin of the outboard motor is very useful protection against greater damages, if something hits the propeller. In other words shear pin is preventing and isolating these errors spreading to the rest of the system. Acronym SPOF (Single Point of Failure) describes the situation, when the single point fails and according to that the entire system will be broken at least awhile. In this thesis the analogical reasoning is used to find out, if it possible to support conclusion that SPOF problems of the data communication in the computer networks are possible to prevent by the “programmable shear pin”. Few similarities are highlighted between power transmission and data communication. These similarities are used to justificate the use of Intel Management Engine platform to provide location for these “programmable shear pins”

Full textAbstract:
The behaviour of spot welded joints is to be studied in shear mode by using the end notched flexure (ENF) specimen. The specimen counts on several spot welds spaced with the same gap along the entire length except for the notch. Different configurations of the test specimen spacing gap and spot diameter are to be preliminary designed in software PTC-CREO 2.0 in order to obtain accurate results. The results obtained from the software are to be compared with the experimental analysis performed by means of a servo-hydraulic testing machine. Both the virtual and the experimental results will be used to extract the stress-shear displacement relation around the first spot weld which is in contact with the notch, that is, the corresponding cohesive law. In addition, a comparison between adhesive and spot weld behaviours will be carried out by means of analytical equations in order to prove an existing equalisation between each other. Despite assuming several sources of error and after facing some problems related to the experimental work, accurate convergences between experimental and theoretical results were not accomplished in any of the three tests performed in lab. Due to the plastic deformation of the specimens in lab, the cohesive law was possible to be extracted only from the theoretical analysis, but not from the experimental one. In its place, the load-shear displacement was extracted. Some alternatives to solve this issue and to improve the performance of the tests are given at the end of this paper.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this thesis project is to develop a methodology that can be used to minimize the number of spot-welds in a mechanical structure, this is done in a reliable manner via optimization methods. The optimization considers fatigue life in spot-welds and also stiffness and eigenfrequency values. The first chapter of this thesis presents a spot-weld fatigue model proposed by Rupp (1995), common FEmodels of spot-welds and also important aspects about structural optimization in general. The second chapter further describes how topology optimization and size (parameter) optimization are applied on a simple multi-weld model with respect to the aforementioned structural constraints. The topology optimization is later used on a full-size car model, while the size optimization is used to optimize the multiweld model by adding an non-linear structural constraint - a crash indentation constraint. The spot-weld fatigue model proposed by Rupp (1995), is also verified by comparing FE results using different FE-models of spot-welds compared to fatigue data by Long and Khanna (2007). Both optimization methods successfully minimize the total amount of spot-welds on the multi-weld model. The topology optimization,accompanied with thegradient based MFD algorithm,minimizes th etotal spot-welds with around 15% and 3% on the multi-weld model and car body respectively. The size optimization, using design of experiments and response surfaces, manage storeduce the number of welds in the multi-weldmodel by 25%. However, with the size optimization the computational time is several orders of magnitude longer-even without the formulation of the crash constraint. The fatiguespot-weld model fares reasonably well compared to the experimental fatigue data, regardless of the FE model of the spot-weld. It is concluded that the ACM model would be recommended based on its compatibility with fatigue and optimization methods, mesh-independence and also other studies have shown its ability to represent stiffness and eigenfrequency correctly.

Full textAbstract:
This study aims to test the strength of Shaun Clarkes air theory SPOT-bombing for small nations, to see if the theory could be of good use for all the small states around the world which are not able to master the capacity needed for large nation air theories. The British use of airpower during the Falkland war serves as case which is compared to the SPOT-bombing theory. The British task force, although much smaller than the Argentine military force, succeeded to win the war through extensive use of airpower. The studies analytic results reveal that the indicators taken from the air theory are not found to any greater extent in the British use of airpower during the war. Therefore this study is not able to strengthen or falsify Clarkes air theory as a whole, but reaches the conclusion that using unconventional methods are useful for a smaller state to get effect on strategic level against a larger opponent. Still, after this study there is more work to be done to test the relevance of the SPOT-bombing for small nations air theory, to be able to state if it is worth for small states to base their airpower doctrines upon it.

Taken into account and scrutinized are hereby some selected aspects of globalization, namely those treated in Joseph Stiglitz's recent book Making Globalization Work. The author, on the basis of economic theory and its application on those selected aspects, comes to conclusions that differ completely from the ones of Mr. Stiglitz. Differences and divergences in conclusions between Mr. Stiglitz and the author stem, indeed, from their individual preferences in the field of economic theory.

Reilly, Aidan. "Modelling of friction stir spot welding." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 2013. https://www.repository.cam.ac.uk/handle/1810/244946.
Full textAbstract:
Friction stir spot welding (FSSW) is a solid-state welding process which is especially useful for joining precipitation-hardened aluminium alloys that undergo adverse property changes during fusion welding. It also has potential as an effective method for solid-state joining of dissimilar alloys. In FSSW, heat generation and plastic flow are strongly linked, and the scale of the process in time and space is such that it is difficult to separate and control the influence of all the relevant input parameters. The use of modelling is well-established in the field of welding research, and this thesis presents an analysis of the thermal and mechanical aspects of FSSW, principally using the finite element (FE) technique. Firstly, a thermal FE model is shown, which is subsequently validated by reference to experimental temperature data in both aluminium-to-aluminium and aluminium-to-steel welds. Correlations between high-quality welds and temperature fields are established, and predictions are made for peak temperatures reached under novel welding conditions. Deformation and heating are strongly linked in FSSW, but existing modelling tools are poorly suited to modelling flow processes in the conditions extant in FSSW. This thesis discusses the development and optimisation of two novel techniques to overcome the limitations of current approaches. The first of these uses greatly simplified constitutive behaviour to convert the problem into one defined purely by kinematics. In doing so, the boundary conditions reduce to a small number of assumptions about the contact conditions between weld material and tool, and the model calculation time is very rapid. This model is used to investigate changes in the slip condition at the tool to workpiece interface without an explicit statement of the friction law. Marker experiments are presented which use dissimilar composition but similar strength alloys to visualise flow patterns. The layering behaviour and surface patterns observed in the model agree well with observations from these experiments. The second approach extends the FE method to include deformation behaviour without the need for a fully-coupled approach, guided by the kinematic model. This is achieved using an innovative sequential small-strain analysis method in which thermal and deformation analyses alternate, with each running at a very different timescale. This technique avoids the requirement to either remesh the model domain at high strains or to use an explicit integration scheme, both of which impose penalties in calculation time and model complexity. The method is used to relate the purely thermal analysis developed in the work on thermal modelling to welding parameters such as tool speed. The model enables predictions of the spatial and temporal evolution of heat generation to be made directly from the constitutive behaviour of the alloy and the assumed velocity profile at the tool-workpiece interface. Predictions of the resulting temperature history are matched to experimental data and novel conditions are simulated, and these predictions correlate accurately with experimental results. Hence, the model is used to predict welding outcomes for situations for which no experimental data exists, and process charts are produced to describe optimum welding parameters. The methods and results presented in this thesis have significant implications for modelling friction stir spot welding, from optimising process conditions, to integration with microstructural models (to predict softening in the heat-affected zone, or the formation of intermetallics at the interface in dissimilar welds). The technique developed for sequential small strain finite element analysis could also be investigated for use in other kinematically constrained solid-state friction joining processes.

Full textAbstract:
Manufacturing engineering in general has experienced an increased demand of process planning in order to optimize processes to reduce costs, environmental impact and increase time efficiency. Resistance spot welding (RSW) is a common and large-scale joining method in several manufacturing industries indicating significant potentials of efficient process planning. The goal of this thesis is to establish new knowledge for updated and improved process planning of RSW in industrial applications. The goal is expressed by two research questions targeting the issues of process variations and potential of numerical methods of the RSW process. The research questions are expressed in terms of weld size, which is the main interest in RSW process planning. As any large-scale manufacturing process, RSW involves variations in results – the weld size is known to vary, both as a result of intentional dependent parameters such as process parameters and as a result of unintentional variations in welding conditions. A series of physical and numerical analysis have been performed in order to gain knowledge of such variations. The unintentional variations, which result in varying weld sizes in apparently identical conditions, were analyzed through both controlled laboratory welding and welding in industrial production environments. The results of the analysis showed the magnitude of standard deviations in both environments and the distribution of weld sizes. The analysis showed that common standard deviations in controlled laboratories and industrial production are approximately 0.3 mm and 0.9 mm, respectively and that weld sizes are distributed showed promising fit to both Normal and Weibull distributions. The intentional variations of weld sizes due to process parameters, which is the most important aspect of RSW process planning, have traditionally been analyzed through physical testing. In the present thesis two numerical methods were evaluated; regression analysis and FE simulations. For the regression analysis several models were generated and showed a standard deviation of residuals between model and physical results of 0.5 mm. For the FE simulations, material models for the RSW were generated and the simulations showed a standard deviation compared to physical testing of 0.68 mm. In conclusion, the present thesis presents results, which help quantify variations in weld sizes and present the capability of numerical methods of the RSW process.QC 20130205

Full textAbstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimitedThis study of Transportation Security Administration’s Screening Passengers by Observation Techniques (SPOT) program analyzes the Government Accountability Office (GAO) and Office of Inspector General (OIG) recommendations for improvement, as well as strengths and weaknesses of the program not specifically addressed in previous assessments. Any analysis of SPOT must be robust, as it represents one of the few threat agnostic countermeasures not limited by technology and finite detection capabilities. The GAO has recommended Congress withhold funding from SPOT until further evidence of effectiveness can be produced. The first portion of this study revisits the analysis of GAO and OIG in their respective reports. The GAO audits rely on meta-analyses that suggest human lie detection is no more successful than flipping a coin. This study assesses those claims, and reveals some contextual and analytical limitations of the claims. The OIG report offers similar claims, but adds additional insight into critical strategic areas. The second portion of this study focuses on the strengths and weaknesses of the SPOT program, including an analysis of several GAO and OIG conclusions. Many of the recommendations were operational in nature, and provided little strategic direction to improve the relevance, effectiveness, and credibility of the program. Analyzing strengths and weaknesses provides insight into more strategic recommendations that may improve the security value of SPOT.

Outre la qualité de ses images, l'atout majeur du système SPOT est sa précision géométrique. Cette étude a pour objet d'évaluer l'apport d'une triangulation de bloc au traitement géométrique d'images SPOT, afin de traiter globalement la géométrie de l'ensemble des images d'un chantier de spatiocartographie. Tant l'intérêt réel du calcul de blocs que sa faisabilité sont ici démontrés. Au préalable, il est indispensable d'analyser la modélisation de la prise de vues SPOT. Une modélisation simple, robuste et proche de la réalité physique de la prise de vues SPOT est proposée. Avec un nombre restreint de points d'appui, l'exactitude obtenue reste inférieure à 10 mètres en planimétrie et 6 mètres en altimétrie, ce qui est conforme à la plupart des standards de cartographie à l'échelle du 1:50000. Sans point d'appui, une précision de 15 mètres a été obtenue sur des blocs couvrant 200 km x 200 kmBesides its image quality, the main advantage of Sport system is its geometric accuracy. The aim of this study is the evaluation of what block adjustment can bring to Spot images geometric processing, in order to process together all the images of a space mapping project. The actual advantage of this kind of computation is shown here. Before, a model of the image-ground relationship must be given. The proposed model is simple, robust and close to the physical image acquisition. With very few control points, the resulting accuracy is less than 10 meters in planimetry, and 6 meters in altimetry. These figures fit most standards of 1:50000 scale topographic maps. Without any ground control point, the accuracy is 15 meters on 200 km x 200 km area

Full textAbstract:
Many critics of rational choice theory aim at unrealistic psychological assumption of this theory. To what extent is this kind of critic relevant? If we analyze the formalized scheme of choice than we will find difficult to interpret this scheme as psychological theory that develops intentional explanations. We should rather understand this theory as a theory developing causal explanations that are generated by the structure of surrounding. Intencionality in this theory is only a auxiliary tool and the explanation is made in terms of structure, not in terms of mental states. From this perspective most of the critic aim at wrong target.

Full textAbstract:
The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) Traffic and Safety Division continues to advance the safety of roadway sections throughout the state. To aid UDOT in meeting their goal the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Brigham Young University (BYU) has worked with the Statistics Department in developing analysis tools for safety. The most recent of these tools has been the development of a hierarchical Bayesian Poisson Mixture Model (PMM) statistical model of traffic crashes and safety on UDOT roadways statewide and the integration of the results of this model in a Geographic Information System (GIS) framework. This research focuses on the enhancement of the framework for highway safety mitigation in Utah with its six primary steps: 1) network screening, 2) diagnosis, 3) countermeasure selection, 4) economic appraisal, 5) project prioritization, and 6) effectiveness evaluation. The framework was enhanced by developing a methodology for accomplishing the steps of network screening, diagnosis, and countermeasure selection. This methodology is titled, "Hot Spot Identification and Analysis." The hot spot identification and analysis methodology consists of the following seven steps: 1) identify problematic segments with safety concern, 2) identify problem spots within the segments, 3) micro analysis of problematic segments and spots, 4) defining the segment, 5) defining the problem, 6) evaluation of possible countermeasures, and 7) selection and recommendation of feasible countermeasures. The methodology is to help in the identification of hot spots with safety concerns so that they can be analyzed and countermeasures can be identified to mitigate the safety issues. Examples of how the methodology is to function are given with specific examples from Utah's state roadway network.
