Periodic Changes

In cases where it is necessary to separate true periodic changes from other variations, which during short periods of time often simulate periodicities, the method of the periodogram is at present the only one which can give definite results. In view of the importance of the questions connected with the changes in the frequency of the sun-spots, I have, therefore, undertaken the considerable labour of forming a complete periodogram of sun-spot variability as far as the data at my disposal allow me to do so. The following is a brief abstract of the results; the investigation will be presented shortly:— The periodogram, as already explained, is the diagram representing the intensity of periodic variations as determined from the sum of the squares of the two Fourier coefficients belonging to each assumed period. This diagram represents for any regular or irregular change exactly what the energy diagram gives us for a luminous disturbance which is analysed by a spectroscope.

Abstract This report presents experimental, analytical, and numerical results describing vibrational phenomena in a rotating machine with one loose pedestal. The loose-pedestal machine rotor vibrations represent unbalance-related excited vibrations of synchronous and fractional subsynchronous regimes. In this study the loose-pedestal machine is first simulated by a simple vibrating beam excited by a shaker mounted on it. The shaker simulates an unbalanced machine rotor. The beam occasionally enters in contact with the foundation. The excited vibrations are modified by impacting occurrences, and by periodic changes in system stiffness. A new model of the impact has been developed. The results of analytical and experimental studies stand in a good agreement. They illustrate the existence of the synchronous regime and several subsynchronous fractional regimes in various excitation frequency ranges. The analysis adequately predicts the occurrence of these regimes and determines the physical parameters affecting them. The analytical and experimental results are then compared with the responses of experimental rotor rig with one bearing pedestal looseness. They show the same qualitative pattern.

Periodic Changes

Tourism is characterized by a highly dynamic internal and external environment, which means that adaptation and periodic changes are an integral part of the organizational life of tourism organizations. The present study aims to indicate how and why the socio-psychological aspects of governance are essential for human resource management in tourism organizations. In this regard, it is clarified what are the applied aspects of social psychology related to management and organizational behavior. The areas of application of these aspects are outlined, the connection between the management of human resources in the tourism organizations and the derived socio-psychological aspects of the management is indicated.

Periodic Changes

Since World War II, periodic changes in the fabrication, design, and material specifications for ship steels have been made to preclude brittle fractures. These various changes are described briefly, along with a history of fracture control for ships to serve as background information for a discussion of the present-day structural integrity program for ships in the marine industry. As additional information related to the structural integrity of ship structures, a review of two recent ship failures (e.g., the Ingram Barge in 1972 and the Chester A. Poling in 1977) is presented to demonstrate some of the factors involved in brittle fractures of ships. In both of these failures there were other factors contributing to the final brittle fractures that were more important than the notch toughness levels. These factors are reviewed as the basis for an observation regarding the overall structural integrity of merchant ships.

Interview Analysis

Abstract Peking opera epitomizes the traditional Chinese performing arts, and all six factors concerning the story and performance of Peking opera, namely plot, role type, song, speech, acting, and combat, can produce humorous effects among the audience. The present paper is a tentative study on humor and sensing humor in Peking opera. The scale study testified that all six factors were able to produce humorous effects and that they had different degrees of comprehension difficulty and humor for different contributing factors. The degree of comprehension difficulty can assert negative influence upon the degree of humor. Different from the traditionally held nonmonotonic (inverted-U) correlation between the two, a monotonic inverse proportion between the two has been detected. The interview analyses revealed that the humorous effects had something to do with incongruity but that resolution might not necessarily be involved. The scale study and the interview analysis both support this finding.
