Analysis and research on water hammer protection measures based on KY PIPE for long distance pumping station water transmission engineering with pump stoppage by Zhen Zhou, Zhenwei Mu, Honghong Zhang, Mengqiang Zhang, Yuanhao Gu, Xiufu Shi, Baien Zhao

“…The use of two-phase check valves can effectively solve the problem of pump inversion when the pump water hammer stops, and the installation of an air valve and regulating tower can effectively reduce the pressure head of the pipeline. At the same time, the negative pressure in the pipeline can be eliminated, and the installation of a water hammer relief valve can effectively reduce the volume of the bladder surge tank by 77.5%. …”

Expanded taxonomies of human memory by Jason R. Finley

“…In this manuscript, I propose even further expanded taxonomies of human memory, based on my view that memory is the transmission of information across time. The second expansion encompasses numerous biological systems beside the brain, including the immune system, genetics (DNA and epigenetics), and traces of the past stored elsewhere in the body (skin, hair, body modification, nails, bones and teeth, muscles and movement, voice, digestion and excretion, blood, reproductive systems, fat, lungs, and body-based numerical representation). …”

The art of non-verbal communication in perlocutionary giftedness by Adam Świątek

“…On the other hand, almost simultaneously, Austin (1962) introduced the tripartite division of a speech act, with locutions, illocutions, and perlocutions as the integral components, later developed by Searle (1969), who shed new light on the Speech Act Theory (SAT). At that time, however, the role of the perlocutionary component was significantly diminished, since the primary goal of pragmatics was to investigate the speaker’s intentions. …”
