The purpose of the tests described in this publication was to examine the effect of the temperature of the biodiesel burned, resulting from the transesterification of rapeseed oil with methanol, on the level of nitrogen oxides emissions. The tests were carried out on a test stand equipped with a 9.5 kW engine. Electricity was transffered directly to the power grid. The measurements were started after the engine has warmed up, when the oil temperature exceeded 85°C. In the first stage, the engine was loaded with the maximum achievable torque (100%), in the second stage the torque was set at 75% of the maximum value, and for measurements in the third stage the torque was 50% of the maximum value. Three tests were carried out, one for each of the three fuel temperatures: 20, 40 and 55°C.

The process of destruction of sulphidic polymers is investigated and mechanism of formation of laser erosive plasma is offered. The using of modulator of good quality allows obtaining of ordered structure of laser plasma, which is formed as a toroid and kept by own magnetic field. The process of plasma formation and movement over the surface of the sample proceeds in three stages. At the first stage the dense hot nucleus of a torch absorbing laser radiation is formed. At the second stage there is a transition of thermal energy of plasma into kinetic energy of the directed dynamic movement. At the third stage – the plasmoid, having reached the maximum value of rate, is sharply hindered owing to interaction with the air medium, reorganization of the plasma dynamic movement itself takes place. Processes of plasma states under different conditions are separated both in space and in time.

Background:We reviewed our 12-year experience with staged reconstruction for hypoplasia of the left heart, examining the results of each surgical step and the impact of the year of the Norwood operation on survival. We compared survival of patients with hypoplasia of the left heart subsequent to completion of the Fontan circulation to survival of patients with a dominant left ventricle undergoing a Fontan procedure.Patients:Between 1989 and 2001, we performed a first stage procedure in 89 patients. Their median age was 9 days, with a range from 2 to 140 days, and the median weight was 3.4 kg, with a range from 2.4 to 5.4 kg.Results:Survival at 1, 4, and 10 years was 55%, 49%, and 49%, respectively. We experienced 23 early deaths (26%), and 12 deaths between the stages of the Norwood cascade. Of our patients, 42 underwent the second stage, and 30 the third stage. Prior to the first stage, symptoms of necrotising enterocolitis, and of obstructed pulmonary venous return, influenced survival significantly. The latter was eliminated as risk factor when surgery was performed within the first week of life. During the later part of our experience, survival at the first stage operation improved significantly, with survival at 3 years increasing from 42% to 75% for the patients at standard-risk (p = 0.017), and from 17% to 42% for those deemed to be at high-risk (p = 0.1). No deaths occurred in 23 patients older than 3 years of age, all of whom had proceeded through the third stage. After completion of the Fontan circulation, the survival of the patients with hypoplasia of the left heart at 4 years was comparable to the survival of patients undergoing the Fontan procedure with a dominant left ventricle (88% versus 90%, p = 0.8).Conclusions:Early and intermediate survival has improved significantly over the period of 12 years. Late death has been uncommon, and none of our patients are listed for cardiac transplantation.

The market conditions demanded the adaptation of exclusively touristic sailing yachts to specific race requirements. The hydrodynamic aspects of this problem have been successfully solved using modern tools for CFD analysis. But, the practical aspects of outfitting such vessels to meet the highest tourist requirements while respecting specific racing requirements for deck equipment required a different methodological approach. In fulfilling these requirements, the author indirectly participates in multi-year cooperation with the prominent European manufacturer of sailboats. For the purpose of cooperation, a special methodology was developed for the improvement of the equipment of the defined sailing boat in four stages. In the first stage, an analysis of the impact of sailing equipment and deck configuration of the existing B40S model on sailing performance is suggested using RaceQs computing application and expert approaches for different sea and wind conditions. In the second stage, the analysis of the collected data is carried out by expert approach towards guidelines for improvement. The third stage impacts on redesigning the existing model by implementing the obtained results. In the fourth stage, the effects on the upgraded new B41S model are analyzed repeating the first stage. The methodology is iterative and converges to the optimal solution for the defined criteria.

In this study, we attempted to develop Information Technology (IT) document of problem management for the export company. This document used as guidance for the company’s employees to manage IT problem. Not every company's IT division has IT problem management strategy, the priority of problem-solving is usually done by the First In first out (FIFO) method by not considering the impact and the problem urgency. COBIT 5 and ITIL V3 DSS03 related to Problem management were used as standards to review and benchmark on how problem management activities should be done. The output of this research is a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) document. The Problem management SOP document consists of three stages, the first stage is the preparation of  SOP with 5 sub-stages, namely: list activity of ITIL V3 and COBIT 5 DSS03, mapping activity of ITIL V3 and COBIT 5 DSS03, verification of company new activities, mapping of activity actor based on RACI DSS02 and mapping of workproduct. The second stage is the adjustment of SOP documents with 2 sub-stages, namely: interviews for identification of needs and mapping of activity actor with the company's organizational structure. The third stage is the verification of SOP documents. The SOP documents contain 11 procedure with five actors. Overall SOP document can eventually become a reference for the company to manage IT problem.

Critics have argued that Elizabeth Gaskell's first novel, Mary Barton (1848), is split by a conflict between the modes of realism and romance. But the conflict does not render the novel incoherent, because Gaskell surpasses both modes through a utopian narrative that breaks with the conflict of form and gives coherence to the whole novel. Gaskell not only depicts what Thomas Carlyle called the ‘Condition of England’ in her work but also develops, through three stages, the utopia that will redeem this condition. The first stage is romantic nostalgia, a backward glance at Eden from the countryside surrounding Manchester. The second stage occurs in Manchester, as Gaskell mixes romance with a realistic mode, tracing a utopian drive toward death. The third stage is the utopian break with romantic and realistic accounts of the Condition of England and with the inadequate preceding conceptions of utopia. This third stage transforms narrative modes and figures a new mode of production.
