The Prototypes of MGIMO: from the History of Specialized Diplomatic Education in Russia by A. I. Kuznetsov

“…Perfecting the training of diplomats implied the growing role of higher education for the personnel in the diplomatic service and making entrance examinations to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs more and more difficult, which meant that the applicants had to possess specific knowledge in history, economics, law, regional studies, etc. The article analyzes the role of universities, lyceums and the Oriental Institute at the Asian Department of the 70 Ministry of Foreign Affairs in professional training of diplomats. …”

3D hydrogen-like screening effect on excitons in hBN-encapsulated monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides by S. Takahashi, S. Kusaba, K. Watanabe, T. Taniguchi, K. Yanagi, K. Tanaka

“…This suggests that the theoretically indicated modification of the exciton level structure due to the phonon resonances is negligible. The power-law scaling of exciton binding energies indicates that dielectric screening of 1L-MX2 exciton levels other than 1s can be approximated by that of a 3D hydrogen model with the dielectric constant of hBN.…”

A voz ou a plenitude do texto. Performance oral, práticas de leitura e identidade literária no Ocidente medieval by Carlos F. Clamote Carreto

“…Through the privileged perspective of French Medieval Literature (but not only), these reflections aim to question the evolutionary and cognitive conception of the history of reading refocusing the problem in the irreducible tension – which has partly characterized Western culture – between the letter and the voice, between an idealization of the writing elevated into the magic sphere of the Sacred (or the Law) which places the oral performance under the sign of a corrupted fabula, and a long tradition that, from Plato to Hegel, assimilates logocentrism and phonocentrism. …”

Die verstaan en funksie van die Ou Testament in die kerk (of: kan die kerk klaarkom sonder die Ou Testament?) Deel I by S. D. Snyman

“…The result of this investigation boils down to two basic answers given: The Old Testament was either totally rejected or narrowed down to a formula like promise-fulfillment; law-gospel; continuity-discontinuity. However well intended, to narrow down the Old Testament to a single formula resulted in viewing the Old Testament only as preliminary, the Word of God for an interim period only and validated by the New Testament. …”

Design of Robust Adaptive Observer against Measurement Noise for Sensorless Vector Control of Induction Motor Drives by Asma Boulmane, Youssef Zidani, Mohammed Chennani, Driss Belkhayat

“…This paper proposes a new cascade sensorless speed control technique for induction motor drives suitable for electric vehicle applications using the full-order adaptive Luenberger observer that is insensitive to measurement noise and parametric variation. The adaptive speed law is obtained by the Lyapunov method using the estimated currents and fluxes. …”
