The power dance in research interview. Manifesting power and powerless
2013
We examine the power that is manifested between interviewers and interviewees in research interviews. Our empirical examples are drawn from interviews conducted with: (a) a vocational teacher; and (b) a senior researcher. We analysed the manifestations of power both in the course of the interviews and across interviews. We found that power is exercised and distributed diversely and situationally between the interview participants (interviewer and interviewee) during the interviews. It appeared that in a given interview, the interplay between individual backgrounds and the interview setting was connected to the activities through which power was manifested, and that these activities played a…
Vīrišķā fantāzija Viljama Gibsona romānā “Neuromancer” un kiberpanka žanrā
2022
Kiberpanka žanram ir raksturīgs advancētu tehnoloģiju izmantojums, anti-utopiska vide un cilvēka ķermeņa ierobežojumu pārsniegšana. Šis žanrs parasti saistīts ar vīriešiem raksturīgām lomām. Viljama Gibsona romāna Neiromants ir viens no šī žanra noteicošajiem darbiem. Šī darba mērķis ir salīdzināt vīrieša fantāzijas attēlojumu divos modernos kiberpanka darbos: Kiberpanks 2077 un Matrikss: Atdzimšana. Vīrieša fantāzija tekstā tiek definēta izmantojot trīs pazīmes: seksu, vardarbību un varu.Rezultāti apliecina, ka vīriešu fantāziju izplatība mūsdienu darbos ir palielinājusies. Šie darbi iekļauj dažādus elementus vēlmju piepildīšanai, kas paredzēti visiem dzimumiem.
Construction of whiteness and blackness in Herman Melville's "Benito Cereno"
2020
Zamiast otwartego potępienia niewolnictwa, świat przedstawiony Benito Cereno rozprasza sprzeciw wobec tyranii poprzez zawiłą konstrukcję relacji podmiotowo-przedmiotowych, kontekst sytuacyjny, stłumione, nie do końca wyartykułowane wypowiedzi Benito Cereno, obrazy oraz złożoną strukturę dzieła. Za pomocą przemilczeń, zastosowania różnorodnych punktów widzenia, napomknięć, czy wyrazistej niedookreśloności, dzieło Melvilla nie tylko wpisuje się w romantyczne kwestionowanie historiografi i, ale również wychodzi naprzeciw postmodernistycznej nieoczywistości. Jest to utwór, w którym czytelnik zostaje zaproszony do bycia współautorem wypełniającym luki i przemilczenia własną interpretacją.

Design of a Hybrid Electric Power-Split Transmission for Braking Energy Recovery in a Drilling Rig
2022
Despite the promising potential of the hybrid electric power-split layout, its broader market penetration is prevented by the large number of feasible solutions and the constructive complexity, which overcomplicate the design process. Moreover, due to the lack of relevant literature references, the power-split transmissions design is even more difficult if concerning applications outside the automotive and agricultural sectors. In this paper, a general parametric model already available in the literature to design a single-mode power-split transmission with up to two planetary gear sets and six ordinary gear sets was applied to hybridize an oil drilling rig to recover energy braking during …
Putting global poverty in context : a philosophical essay on power, justice and economy
2009
Teppo Eskelinen tarkastelee väitöskirjatyössään äärimmäiseen köyhyyteen sisältyviä eettisiä ongelmia yhteiskuntafilosofian näkökulmasta. Usein oletetaan, että maailman hyväosaisilla on moraalisia velvollisuuksia poistaa äärimmäistä köyhyyttä. Näitä velvollisuuksia tulee kuitenkin Eskelisen mukaan tutkia etiikan lisäksi yhteiskuntafilosofian kontekstista eli oikeudenmukaisuuden ja vallan ongelmina.- Alallamme on käyty paljon keskustelua siitä, minkälaisia velvollisuuksia hyväosaisilla on poistaa äärimmäistä köyhyyttä. Nämä velvollisuudet on perinteisesti nähty velvollisuuksina auttaa. On kuitenkin esitetty, ovatko talousjärjestelmän voittajien velvollisuudet enemmänkin negatiivisia eli velvo…
THE ADMINISTRATIVE JUSTICE IN SPAIN: CURRENT SITUATION AND CHALLENGES
2016
Since the Spanish Constitution of 1978 there has been a full and effective administrative justice. The citizens have the possibility to request a judicial review of decisions taken by the public Administrations, while being either the owners of a subjective right or of a legitimate interest. The interim judicial protection is not limited to the suppression of the act or general provision and the Courts are invested with direct powers to enforce their sentences. However, different problematic issues about the inactivity of the public Administrations and the enforcement of sentences are the new challenges to ensure the administrative justice. To this it must be added that there are problems r…

A study on the assessment of the production costs curves in micro-grids
2013
In micro-grids, due to their small scale, there is commonly only one power supplier. A competitive wholesale market hardly exists, so the question about how to consider market issues for small producers within micro-grids arises. On the other hand, the specific features of micro-grids where load and generated power hardly find a balance, require that customers take part to regulation issues, also using demand-response (DR) programs. In this paper, price responsive (PR) policies and their programs are discussed to answer this question. A case study of a micro-grid with one micro-turbine and two photovoltaic (PV) generators is analyzed to assess the overall production cost in order to build a…
A generalized methodology for distribution systems faults identification, location and characterization
2005
Service continuity is of basic importance in the definition of the quality of the electrical energy, for this reason, the research in the field of faults diagnostic for distribution systems is spreading ever more. In this paper, a new methodology for diagnostic management of automated distribution systems is presented. The technique is based on the solution of a circuital model of the electrical system resulting from the composition of distributed parameters quadripoles. The solution gives as a result the identification of the type of fault, of its characteristic parameters and location. The paper shows an application to line to line grounded and ungrounded faults in which also its precisio…
