Silent Modernism : Soundscapes and the Unsayable in Richardson, Joyce, and Woolf

This thesis examines silence in modernist fiction, explaining how it forms a central aspect of realism in the modernist novel. It is based on close readings of the form and function of silence in the works of Dorothy Richardson, James Joyce, and Virginia Woolf. The study proposes that silence as part of a text’s soundscape and silence as part of its mode of literary expression are related in moder

Interactions Between Excitation and Unmodeled Dynamics in Adaptive Control

The paper contributes to the understanding of the behavior of adaptive control systems in anomaly situations. In particular it explores phenomena which are due to interaction between disturbances and unmodeled dynamics. It is shown that the persistency of excitation plays a major role. Ways to ensure that difficulties do not occur are also presented.

The motive to Care About Others : The Actualization of the Public Sector

The general aim of this dissertation was to reveal how employees in Swedish municipalities were motivated in their job. Three purposes were settled on to meet the aim of the dissertation:1) investigate whether there were differences concerning motivation between employees whohad client-related jobs and employees who did not have client-related jobs, 2) investigate how the employees experienced the

Teknik för kvinnor med begränsat utbud - en kurs inom BRYT-projektet "Teknik för kvinnor i Skåne"

Denna utvärderingsrapport behandlar en teknikkurs för kvinnor med olika former av arbetshandikapp. Kursen ingick i BRYT-projektet och utvecklades i samverkan mellan Länsarbetsnämnden i Skåne och Af Rehabilitering. Flertalet av deltagarna uppgav att kursen ökat deras kunskaper och intresse för arbete med teknisk inriktning. Av de sammanlagt tjugo deltagarna hade vid kursens slut en deltagare fått l

Experimental evidence of granulence

We present an experimental study of velocity fluctuations in quasistatic flow of a 2D granular material deformed in a shear apparatus named 1γ2ε [1]. Radjaï and Roux [2] revealed systematic similarities between velocity fluctuations observed in discrete element simulations of quasistatic flow of granular material and turbulent flows in fluids. The character of these velocity fluctuations - named g

An integrated design of SM2C core motor for vehicular applications

This paper focuses on the design and the evaluation of a three-phase permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) that stator core is made of Soft Magnetic Mouldable Composite – SM2C. A radial flux PM machine with modular winding is designed for a high-speed low-voltage automotive application. Manufacturability and a high fill factor of the winding are vital for a low permeability stator core in or
