Faire bifurquer le tourisme hivernal ? Controverses et mobilisations socio-environnementales autour de la transition écologique dans une station alpine (La Clusaz, France) by Mikaël Chambru, Marion Picard

“…By following the history of this mountain controversy, we aim to show how the ecological transition became a public concern around key issues, and how socio-ecological movements participate in this diffusion. Beyond the apparent homogeneity of the ecological transition, Alpine controversies on tourism crystalise antagonistic worldviews, stimulate the development of strategies and stakeholder interactions, and question the transformative dimensions and the aims of the ecological transition. …”

Reconciling editorial independence and public accountability issues in Public Broadcasting Service by Guy Berger, Denis Jjuuko

“…Several dimensions can be identified in regard to assessing accountability and editorial independence, and also to the way that policy can work to integrate these two apparently contradictory imperatives. In 2004, the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) was required in effect to mediate the complex challenges in this tension by formulating detailed editorial policies and systems. …”

“SONATA FOR CLARINET SOLO” BY TIBERIU OLAH by Răzvan METEA

“…"A man of short stature, but with tremendous force of communicating by means of sounds; modest, but aware of his own value; secluded and slightly detached from the practical aspects of existence, but proving, in everything connected with the art of sounds, an inexhaustible energy and passion, an amazing capacity of observation and synthesis, unparalleled culture and memory as well as extraordinary precision and exigency. Apparently, Olah led an ordinary life, among us; in fact, music permeated his life as an uninterrupted ostinato, to the point of identification with it, in symbiotic communion. …”

Effects of the Replacement of Dietary Fishmeal by the Blend of Tenebrio molitor Meal, Chlorella Meal, Clostridium Autoethanogenum Protein, and Cottonseed Protein Concentrate on Gro... by Yongning Yu, Xing Wang, Junyan Jin, Dong Han, Xiaoming Zhu, Haokun Liu, Zhimin Zhang, Yunxia Yang, Shouqi Xie

“…And it also significantly increased intestinal trypsin activity (P<0.05), upregulated the mRNA expression of amino acid sensory receptor-related and amino acid or peptide transport-related genes (P<0.05), increased protein apparent digestibility coefficient (P<0.05). The 100% substitution of FM with BLEND A significantly upregulated the mRNA expression of intestinal proinflammatory cytokines and downregulated the mRNA expression of anti-inflammatory cytokine il-10 (P <0.05), reduced intestinal villus height (P<0.05), and decreased protein apparent digestibility coefficient (P<0.05). …”

AN IMPROVED ALGORITHM FOR TIME DOMAIN AVERAGING BASED ON FRACTIONAL DELAY FILTERING by ZOU JinChun, QU Lei, DAI GuangHao, WANG XiuFeng, SHEN YuDi

“…For reducing the influence of truncation error on the accuracy of time domain averaging（ TDA） induced by noninteger-period sampling,an improved algorithm of TDA based on fractional delay filtering（ FDF） is presented.On the basis of analyzing the disadvantages of current methods of TDA and the characteristics of FDF,a presently improved method of signal truncation was used in the method to avoid the accumulation of truncation error and obtain a delay factor on each of the truncated signals,the reconstruction and resample for the truncated signals were implemented with FDF,and finally the arithmetic mean were computed after all of the truncated signals were added.The theoretical analysis and experimental results demonstrate that the method which fully makes using of the advantages of FDF on the change of delay factor,apparently reduces the truncation error of signals with non-integer-period sampling,and could obviously improve the accuracy of TDA without key-phase signal.…”

Film Cooling Effectiveness Data for Simple Injection Geometries: A Collection of Three-Axis Plots by L. D. Stone, R. J. Goldstein

“…By plotting data from several film cooling studies conducted at the University of Minnesota, the dominant roles played by density ratio, hole spacing, and surface curvature become apparent. It is also seen that a slot-plate prediction/correlation from two-dimensional film cooling studies makes an excellent standard of comparison for all film cooling studies, even though the more commonly encountered (two-axis) comparisons using standardized nondimensional parameters do not usually suggest this.…”
