Abstract (sommario):
La literatura científica destaca la importancia de la formación de los entrenadores deportivos y, aunque existen diferentes instrumentos para medirla de forma general y específica, pocas investigaciones crean nuevos instrumentos para facilitar su cumplimentación y análisis posterior. En este estudio, partiendo de la validez y confiabilidad del instrumento QUGRAFOR©, se ha realizado un análisis factorial exploratorio sobre 256 cuestionarios, para la adaptación y revalidación del mismo. El análisis de las comunalidades y matriz de configuración, reduce el instrumento de ocho a cinco factores y de 109 a 31 ítems que explican una cantidad sustancial de la varianza del instrumento y muestran que los factores son robustos, discriminando adecuadamente entre ellos y existiendo correspondencia ítem-factor. La confiabilidad del instrumento se midió a través del índice de alfa de Cronbach manteniendo un valor bueno .89 (similar al original). Por tanto, los resultados obtenidos confirman la estructura multidimensional y la compatibilidad para otros deportes del nuevo instrumento QUGRAFOR 2. Palabras clave: Psicometría, Entrenador, Cuestionario, Deporte colectivo, Revalidación, Adaptación. Abstract. The scientific literature highlights the importance of the training of sports coaches and although there are different instruments to measure it in a general and specific way, few investigations create new instruments to facilitate their completion and subsequent analysis. In this study, based on the validity and reliability of the QUGRFOR© instrument, an exploratory factorial analysis has been carried out on 256 questionnaires, for its adaptation and revalidation. The analysis of the communalities and configuration matrix reduces the instrument from eight to five factors and from 109 to 31 items that explain a substantial amount of the variance of the instrument and show that the factors are robust, adequately discriminating between them and that there is item-factor correspondence. The reliability of the instrument was measured through Cronbach's alpha index, maintaining a good value of .89 (similar to the original). Therefore, the results obtained confirm the multidimensional structure and that it is compatible for other sports of the new instrument QUGRAFOR 2. Key words: Psychometry, Coach, questionnaire, Collective sport, Revalidation, Adaptation.

Abstract (sommario):
Evaluationen haben in der Stadtentwicklungspolitik zwar eine gewisse Tradition. Evaluationen innovativer Instrumente, die vor allem auf der Initiative privater Akteur:innen vor Ort basieren, sind jedoch selten. Seit nunmehr fast zwei Jahrzehnten werden in Deutschland Erfahrungen mit dem aus Nordamerika übertragenen Instrument der Business-Improvement Districts (BID) gesammelt. Ziel des Artikels ist ein Beitrag der Evaluationsforschung zur Diskussion dieses Instruments. Die vergleichende Evaluation von zwei BIDs aus Hessen (Gießen und Offenbach) zeigt, dass dieses Instrument sehr voraussetzungsvoll ist. Es bedarf eines ausreichend großen engagierten Akteurskreises aus Einzelhändler:innen und Grundstückseigentümer:innen, der dann mit Hilfe dieses Instruments stabilisiert und erweitert werden kann. Für Innenstädte mit besonders großen Problemlagen erscheint dieses Instrument dagegen weniger geeignet. Erforderlich ist daher die Ergänzung durch konventionelle Instrumente staatlicher Stadtentwicklungspolitik. Diese differenzierte Bilanz des Instruments steht auch exemplarisch für die Grenzen einer auf private Aktivitäten ausgerichteten Stadtentwicklungspolitik.

Abstract (sommario):
String instruments are complex mechanical vibrating systems, in terms of both structure and fluid–structure interaction. Here, a review study of the modeling and simulation of stringed musical instruments via the finite element method (FEM) is presented. The paper is focused on the methods capable of simulating (I) the soundboard behavior in bowed, plucked and hammered string musical instruments; (II) the assembled musical instrument box behavior in bowed and plucked instruments; (III) the fluid–structure interaction of assembled musical instruments; and (IV) the interaction of a musical instrument’s resonance box with the surrounding air. Due to the complexity and the high computational demands, a numerical model including all the parts and the full geometry of the instrument resonance box, the fluid–structure interaction and the interaction with the surrounding air has not yet been simulated.

Abstract

The rapid development within the field of measurement methods and techniques and software design that has taken place over the last years offers new possibilities for designers of measurement systems through the use of virtual instruments as building blocks. The concept of virtual instrumentation is developed within the interchangeable virtual instrument foundation. A closely related term is “synthetic instruments”, which is often used for essentially the same concept, but it is even more software oriented. Synthetic instruments as a research field are in an initial stage and a quick search on “Synthetic instruments” in Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) explorer match close to 30 documents. IEEE explorer is a database that provides full-text access to IEEE transactions, journals, magazines and conference proceedings, and all current IEEE Standards.

This Master Thesis is a theoretical work extracted from study material, IEEE documents and web-resources referenced. The work gives the reader an overview of the Synthetic Instruments and their functionality with respect to hardware and software. The papers were analyzed based upon the various trends in the research, development and productizing phases.

For this approach; kernel architecture of an ideal synthetic instrument has been introduced as a prototype around which current technologies and applications can be addressed. The major areas of focus in the architecture are the data conversion and signal conditioning; the knowledge of its working under current implemented technologies has been highlighted and discussed in regards to the software and hardware trends. The defense industry holds the major influence.

The work was aimed towards giving a state-of-the art introduction to synthetic instrument technology; also in order to provide the work an introductory nature, only one hardware & software example has been discussed.

Abstract (sommario):
Technology plays a vital role in the creation of any form of art. In music this has been dominated by a stationary condition in which contemporary ‘academic music’ (new music created in institutions and descending from traditional European models) is in its majority still generated exclusively by a technology of more than a century ago. Additionally, the totality of sound as musical material is now commonly acknowledged, posing problems about the nature and efficiency of the already existing musical instruments and the development of new ones. The current situation in the creation of contemporary music offers a myriad of possibilities in which tools, controllers and instruments have an impact on the creation and conceptualization of music, giving rise to different aesthetic positions and creating new dilemmas in which present, past and future are in constant assessment. This thesis seeks to examine some of the concepts and ideas behind a number of my works in which instrumental sound exploration is essential for the development of the compositional process. As a result, a series of questions, systems and techniques are analyzed, investigating the relation between tools, technique, notation, composition and musical result. This text is intended as an illustration of my own choices and methods, hoping to offer an insight into my own compositional practice as a product of an exercise of self-analysis and rationalization of my current musical output.

Este trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar a influência da conicidade de instrumentos de níquel-titânio acionados a motor, na flexibilidade; na resistência a fratura por torção à direita e na resistência a fratura por flexão rotativa, analisando ainda por meio de microscopia eletrônica de varredura a superfície de fratura dos instrumentos ocorridas por torção e por flexão rotativa, bem como a configuração das hélices das hastes de corte helicoidais dos instrumentos junto ao ponto de fratura. Foram utilizados sessenta instrumentos fabricados em níquel-titânio acionados a motor da marca K3 (Sybron Dental Specialties-Kerr, México), valores nominais de 25mm de comprimento, e de 0,25mm de diâmetro em Do, nas conicidades de 0,02 0,04 e 0,06mm/mm. Dez instrumentos endodônticos de cada conicidade foram avaliados por meio do ensaio não destrutivo de flexão em cantilever e dez instrumentos endodônticos de cada conicidade foram avaliados por meio dos ensaios destrutivos de torção à direita e de flexão rotativa. Diante das metodologias empregadas, dos resultados obtidos e após a execução dos testes estatísticos: Análise de variância no nível de significância de 5%, e do teste de comparações múltiplas de Student-Newman-Keuls a 5%, podemos concluir que: A flexibilidade dos instrumentos ensaiados diminui com o aumento da conicidade da haste de corte helicoidal. O ângulo máximo de torção dos instrumentos ensaiados por torção diminui com o aumento da conicidade da haste de corte helicoidal. O torque máximo até a fratura dos instrumentos ensaiados por torção aumentou com o aumento da conicidade da haste de corte helicoidal. O número de ciclos para a fratura em flexão rotativa diminui com o aumento da conicidade e com o aumento da resistência em flexão (diminuição da flexibilidade) dos instrumentos endodônticos ensaiados. E quanto à análise por meio do microscópio eletrônico de varredura, independentemente, da conicidade e do tipo de carregamento, (torção ou flexão rotativa) aplicado ao instrumento endodôntico, podemos concluir que as amostras fraturadas apresentaram superfície de fratura com característica dúctil. No ensaio de torção, observou-se a reversão do sentido das hélices das hastes de corte helicoidais junto ao ponto de imobilização dos instrumentos. No ensaio de flexão rotativa não ocorreu reversão do sentido das hélices das hastes de corte helicoidais (deformação plástica visível) dos instrumentos fraturados.
This work has as purpose to evaluate the influence of motor driven nickel-titanium instruments tapering, in the flexibility, resistance to fracture by twisting to the right by rotating flexure, analyzing also by means of scanning electronic microscopy the instruments fracture surface arising by twisting and rotating flexure, as well as the configuration of helices of helical cutting rods of instruments near the fracture point. Sixty instrument made of nickel- -titanium and motor-driven of K3 brand were used (Sybron Dental Specialties-Kerr, Mexico), nominal value of 25mm long, and 0,25mm diameter in Do, in tapering of 0,02 0,04 and 0,06mm/mm. Ten endodontic instruments of each tapering were evaluated by means of the non destructive test of flexure in cantilever and ten endodontic instruments of each tapering were evaluated by means of destructive tests twisting to the right and rotating flexure. After the performance of statistic test,: variance analysis at significance level of 5%, and multiple comparison test from Student-Newman-Keuls to 5%, Taking into consideration the implemented methodology, the applied statistical techniques (e.g. variance analysis at significance level of .05 and multiple comparison test from Student-Newman-Keuls at significance level of .05), and the obtained results, it was demonstrated that the flexibility of the instruments tested decreases as the tapering of the helices of helical cutting rods increases. The maximum twisting angle of the instruments tested by twisting decreases as the tapering of the helices of helical cutting rods increases. The maximum torque up to the fracture of the tested instruments increased as the tapering of the helices of helical cutting rods increased. The number of cycles for the fracture in rotating flexure decreases as the tapering increase and the increase of the resistance in flexure (flexibility decrease) of the tested endodontic instruments increased. The analysis by scanning electronic microscopy revealed that, independently of the tapering and the rotating type (twisting or rotating flexure) applied to the endodontic instrument, the fractured samples presented fractured surface of ductile characteristics. A reversion of the helical cutting rods course was observed on the twisting test near the immobilization point. A reversion of the helical cutting rods course (visible plastic deformation) on the rotating flexure test of the fractured instruments was not observed.

Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 170-173).
This dissertation describes the research, development and reasoning behind a family of musical instruments called Exertion Instruments. They use inline electrical generators to run a synthesizer and an amplifier while eliminating the need for batteries. Efficient acoustic design minimizes the power requirements while optimized generator and ergonomic design maximize power generation. As such, they combine the convenience of acoustic instruments with the flexibility of electronic instruments. Also, through new generator designs, nuances of player charging movements become as important to expression as the overall intensity of their playing. The player treats the generator like a typical physical resonator such as a string, using musical instrument playing gestures. Yet they manipulate audio electronically, enabling practices like sampling, synthesis and modulation. During development, a modular approach using amateur-friendly materials was taken to empower future instrument builders to customize and improve the instrument. In addition to technical criteria based on measurements, Exertion Instruments are evaluated through player and builder experiences in a series of technical workshops and realworld performances.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
This thesis investigates the development of the recorder's microtonal repertoire from 1961 through to 2013. The artistic impulses for the use of microtones are discussed and selected pieces studied and performed. An investigation is also undertaken into the relationship between pitch, dynamic, and tone colour. This leads to the development of a method for objectively identifying the changes in tone colour that result from using various microtonal fingerings. Very little substantial research has been undertaken into the recorder's contemporary repertoire, and even less so with regard to its engagement with microtones. The skills for producing the expressive effects of dynamic and tone colour, and thus microtones, were known in the early 16th century, lost, and then revived during the period of musical experimentation in post-war Europe. The application of this knowledge, however, has remained limited. This thesis addresses these shortcomings. Following consideration of intonation and interpretation in Chapter 2 a survey of writings analyzing changes in tone colour and dynamic, and the relationship between them, is undertaken in Chapter 3. These include a number of foreign language texts, whilst others appear in American journals, or conference papers not generally available to the British reader. They highlight the tendency for writers to discuss tone colour and dynamic in vague and subjective terms, and in relation to the performance of early music but rarely in the context of contemporary music. This strand of my inquiry is brought to fruition in Chapter 5, where research leading to the development of a method for identifying and quantifying changes in tone colour, through the application of different fingerings, is applied for the first time. The results of an investigation into the evolution of microtonal repertoire composed since the 1960s are recorded in Chapter 4. Different compositional approaches to both instrument and microtonality are reflected in my choice of seven pieces, plus my own composition, that are the subject of detailed study in Chapter 6. The analyses of the pieces discussed in this thesis, and the contexts in which they were composed, represent a significant step forward in the understanding of the instrument and the use of microtones in compositions of the period. My thesis concludes with a live performance in which a selection of microtonal pieces is presented. This serves as a demonstration and confirmation of the principles discussed in this thesis, drawing together the threads of my research, and applying the insights gained in the course of this study.

Abstract (sommario):
Les instruments sous toutes leurs formes (instruments de mesure, dispositifs optiques, outils techniques usuels. . . ) participent à la définition et à la coordination des pratiques. L'objet de la thèse est de mettre en relation trois aspects associés à la coordination par les instruments : les pratiques d'utilisation, les formes d'action qui y sont associées et les réseaux technico-économiques dans lesquels ils circulent. L'interrogation se situe au croisement de plusieurs disciplines des sciences sociales : sociologie des sciences, sciences cognitives, pragmatique des régimes d'ajustement, psychologie, ethnologie des techniques, sociologie de l'innovation. La première partie de la thèse étudie différentes modalités de la coordination correspondant à des instruments de forme différente. Elle s'appuie sur une étude realisee dans le secteur de la réparation automobile, qui articule deux enquêtes complémentaires : une ethnographie des pratiques techniques au garage met en évidence les diverses formes de compétence impliquées dans l'utilisation des instrument (perception, rôle du corps dans l'action, cognition, compétences sociales, savoir-faire …). Une analyse des réseaux industriels de la réparation automobile montre que les instruments participent à la coordination technico-économique dans ces réseaux. La seconde partie est consacrée à l’étude des instruments de mesure. Elle montre que la métrologie constitue une modalité de coordination des pratiques d’évaluation et de contrôle. Deux terrains empiriques sont examinés : l'analyse extensive des dispositifs de métrologie légale et de normalisation d'un instrument de mesure de la pollution automobile, le suivi d'un instrument scientifique de mesure de la pollution atmosphérique, depuis sa conception dans un centre de recherche jusqu’à ses applications pratiques chez l'utilisateur final. Ce dernier cas comporte l'analyse des processus suivants : pratiques de construction et de mise au point, évaluation de prototype en laboratoire de métrologie, construction d'un réseau commercial permettant de diffuser l'appareil, inter-comparaison de plusieurs instruments mesurant les mêmes propriétés physiques
Instruments (measuring instruments, visualisation and optical devices, usual technical tools. . . ) play a role in the definition and coordination of practices. The aim of the PHD thesis is to relate three different aspects of the coordination through instruments : the practices involved in their use, the associated forms of action and the techno-economic networks of conception, distribution and use. This question is at the cross-road of different disciplines of the social sciences : sociology of scientific knowledge (SSK), cognitive science, pragmatics of the regimes of adjustments, psychology, ethnology of technology, sociology of innovation. The first part of the thesis studies the various forms of coordination associated with different kind of instruments. The inquiry focuses on car repairing activity and combines two complementary approaches : an ethnographical approach of the technical practices in a garage investigates the various form of competences involved in the use of instruments (perception, bodily knowledge, cognition, social abilities, know how …), an analysis of the industrial networks of car repairing shows that instruments take part actively in the techno-economic coordination of these networks. The second part of the thesis is centered on measuring instruments. It shows that metrology is a modality of coordination of the practices of assessment and control. The inquiry bears on two fieldworks : the extensive analysis of the systems of legal metrology and standardisation of an instrument of car pollution measurement, the study of a scientific instrument of atmospheric pollution measurement, from its conception in a research center up to its final practical use. This study tackles the following stages : construction and settling of an instrument in a scientific laboratory, assessment of prototype in metrology laboratory, construction of a commercial network for the diffusion of the product, intercomparison of several similar instruments

Abstract (sommario):
This thesis sheds light on the functioning and characteristics of payment systems to serve as a foundation for understanding the drivers for higher payment system efficiency. Its central goal is to develop insights into the determinants of collective payment choice suitable to lower payment costs to society. So far, the institutional environment, as potential important influence on the payment instrument mix, has not been focused on in the literature. Therefore, particular emphasis is laid on the empirical analysis of the impact of institutional factors on the share of card payments on consumer spending at the point of sale (POS). For this, a unique panel data set is constructed covering the eight most important European payment markets ranked by non-cash transaction volumes. The empirical results allow formulating conditions necessary to achieve a more efficient payment mix. They also form a basis for the assessment of related policy measures with a focus on the SEPA project in terms of their efficiency enhancing effect. Future research could possibly build upon the panel data collected.

Instruments of Service are defined by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) as "representations, in any medium of expression now known or later developed, of the tangible and intangible creative work performed by the Architect." This thesis argues that the current instruments of service do not provide the scaffolding necessary to realize the ethical obligations as defined by the AIA. As cities change, architecture's fundamental obligations, as defined by AIA code of ethics, are threatened. To remain ethical, this thesis argues that the instruments of service must expand. This thesis explores the gap between architecture's obligations and its instruments of service against the backdrop of one such changing city: Boston. We begin with an investigation of the Seaport, one of the most rapidly changing neighborhoods within the city. We use this site as an opportunity to understand how a variety of architects and planners have positioned themselves and how they offer their services to a project that champions a new future for the city of Boston. Against this backdrop, we propose a new method and attitude of practice. We tested this proposed practice for a period of nine months on the ground in Boston and Cambridge. Specifically, we converted four unused sites into artist and community space-our involvement spanning from site identification to policy recommendations to daily operations. This thesis documents parts of that practice. Overall, this thesis is a suggestion and a real world test of one way architects can operate as instrumental shapers of the future of their city.

Abstract (sommario):
Appropriate validity evidence is essential when interpreting scores from tests and instruments. In statistics education, the application of modern measurement theory is limited and not well integrated into research as support for instrument interpretation. The Validity Evidence for Measurement in Mathematics Education project is documenting validity evidence for mathematics and statistics education instruments through a structured literature review to create a searchable instrument database. This paper highlights the status of the work documenting validity evidence for statistics education instruments measuring constructs such as teacher knowledge and attitudes. Many “custom” single-study measures incorporated items from multiple validated instruments and/or added new items without providing evidence for the new instrument. Preliminary information about the types of validity claims and evidence identified from standardized coding is reported.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
When reporting the result of a measurement, the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM) makes it clear that a complete result includes a measured value and an associated value of uncertainty. Measuring instruments compute and then indicate a measured value, but many, if not most instruments provide no indication of the measurement uncertainty. This leaves the metrologist to compute the uncertainty necessitating two parallel computation paths. One path is through the measuring instrument, the other managed by the metrologist. It is possible to merge these two paths where the instrument computes the uncertainty. This positively impacts the metrologist's workflow. This paper takes a previously reported measurement as a use case and compares the metrologist's workflow assuming measuring instruments that report measurement uncertainty to those that do not. The comparison shows that measurement uncertainty reporting instruments significantly improve metrologist efficiency, leads to better estimates of uncertainty and, enables enhanced methods of managing and monitoring measurement processes.

Abstract (sommario):
Improved accuracy, faster sampling, higher resolution, increased bandwidth; all key words used by instrument designers to describe new products. Custom software, embedded controllers, and Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are enabling instrument technologies that rarely get marketed. However, their use in embedded instruments leads to challenges in evaluating measurement accuracy and servicing products. The evolution of instruments from vendor defined functionality through user defined functionality in software is on the verge of another revolution. Continued improvements in embedded controllers and programming environments, coupled with engineers growing up programming, is leading to a new generation of embedded instruments. User defined and customized for specific applications these real time systems are showing in applications that range from medical and commercial to military.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
Two types of interferometers and a mechanical stylus-type instrument have been used to make surface profile measurements on the same samples. All had comparable height sensitivities, of the order of 1 Å rms, but different lateral resolutions. The Optel profilometer1 is based on the principle of the Nomarski differential interference contrast microscope in which two beams of light separated by 0.3 μm are measured by two detectors. Values of the surface slope are calculated from the detector signals; integration yields a surface profile. The Wyko heterodyne profilometer2 is based on the Mireau interferometer. One light beam is reflected from the sample while a second beam is diverted by a beam splitter to a reference mirror located between the microscope objective lens and the sample. A 1024 element linear diode array measures the phase of the interference fringe pattern which is then transformed into a surface profile. In the Talystep instrument3 a 1 μm radius diamond stylus contacts the surface with a 1-2 mg loading that is light enough not to damage the surface. The vertical motion of the stylus as it moves across the surface is converted into a digitized electrical signal that directly gives the surface profile. Results of measurements made on different types of surfaces using the three instruments will be compared to show repeatability, height sensitivity, and lateral resolution. Special features of each instrument will also be discussed.

Abstract (sommario):
The ability to extend calibration intervals for nuclear plant instrumentation has multiple benefits for improving productivity and reducing operating costs at nuclear plants. Benefits include fewer calibrations inside containment during an outage and associated reduced critical path time and ALARA exposure, reduced risk of calibration error or instrument damage during removal and replacement, and reduced operations and maintenance cost for instrument removal, calibration and replacement. A good instrument calibration program ensures instruments are checked frequently enough to provide a high level of confidence that they are performing within acceptable limits, but no more frequently. Over-testing of plant instruments and equipment should be avoided for two reasons: valuable resources are expended on maintenance that might not measurably improve plant safety, reliability, or efficiency; and the potential exists for adjustment errors or equipment damage each time an instrument is removed from service for testing. Over-testing increases the risk of errors or damage being introduced without a justifiable improvement in reliability. This paper discusses the regulatory framework for extending calibration intervals of safety related instruments for U.S. based nuclear power plants. Necessary changes to licensing, plant processes and procedures, training, and configuration management are summarized. An example application of pattern recognition modeling is provided to highlight the analytical support for the processes provided by active monitoring to confirm on-going instrument heath. The paper concludes with a listing of recommended steps to implement a practical program for extending calibration intervals of safety related instruments within the U.S. nuclear regulatory environment.

Abstract (sommario):
Design Based Learning (DBL) is a modern concept of education for technical disciplines. The learner starts the educational process from end-user applications and understands theory by conceiving projects and solving real-life situations. In connection with Problem Based Learning and Project Based Learning, DBL is used to improve skills such as collaboration and communication between team members and to foster deeper learning. Two e-learning instruments have been conceived to support DBL. The concept of the first instrument links STEM disciplines with smart textiles prototypes within 56 educational modules in two approaches: from theory to practice (STEM to Smart) and from practice to theory (Smart to STEM). The modules are structured on seven chapters related to the manufacturing chain of smart textiles: fibres and yarns, materials and methods, virtual models, design prototypes, manufacture prototypes, data processing and testing. Each of these chapters includes four STEM basic disciplines: Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry/material science and Electrotechnics. The instrument consists of a filter programmed in PHP for selection of the desired module. The second instrument presents 5 modules of textile design software tools in a four elements structure: Example, Theory behind the example, Software application and Quiz, for five themes: weaving, knitting, virtual prototyping of clothing, embroidery and experimental design. This instrument includes a navigation button programmed in HTML5. Both instruments support DBL due to their practice- centered and gamification approach. The instruments were performed with support of two Erasmus+ projects: Skills4Smartex (2018-2020) and the ongoing OptimTex (2020-2022). The impact achieved during pandemic restrictions by the e-learning instruments is further presented in the paper.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
The IDB-9 Agreement asks whether the financial instruments of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) are properly aligned with the needs of clients. Before the global financial crisis, the Bank's concern was with the competitiveness of IDB financing; as borrowers gained increased access to global capital markets, the price advantage that IDB had in terms of lower interest rates and higher maturities was often outweighed by the high transaction costs of borrowing from IDB. With the advent of the crisis, the dynamic changed: it was no longer a question of whether there was demand for IDB funding, but whether IDB could provide funding with the speed and at the levels that the crisis dictated. This evaluation examines IDB's lending instruments from both these perspectives. Since 2000 IDB has added a large number of investment instruments in an effort to lower transaction costs and address specific needs of its borrowers. The range of investment lending instruments equals or exceeds that of other multilateral development banks. More recently Management has been working to streamline these instruments and eliminate those that are being only intermittently used: the innovation loan and sector facilities have been discontinued, and the performance-driven loan was allowed to lapse after the pilot period, pending further review and evaluation. The Bank has made significant progress on reducing the time lapse from concept stage to loan approval for all instruments, substantially lowering transaction costs. The story is more problematic with regard to IDB's ability to respond to the needs of borrowers during a crisis. A special instrument created for this purpose met with limited take-up: only five operations were approved, and three of them were cancelled. IDB has recently adopted contingency lending instruments that should allow for a more timely response to economic crises or natural disasters. One tool that IDB still lacks is a viable lending instrument that disburses against the achievement of results.
