<p>This dissertation examines heritage assessment at the New Zealand Department of Conservation. It explores the heritage assessment process through two central research questions: ‘What is the state of current heritage assessment at the Department of Conservation?’ and ‘What place and form could heritage assessments have and take in future practice at the Department of Conservation?’ Responding to a gap in the literature and lack of critical analysis of the heritage assessment procedure in the New Zealand context, the research considers the ways in which heritage assessment is carried out and examines heritage assessment as a tool through which heritage is understood and assigned value and significance. The timeliness of this work is highlighted by the currently few existing evaluations providing a critical analysis of the heritage assessment procedure in New Zealand.  This research employs an interdisciplinary theoretical framework developed from the literature of heritage studies and its related fields, in particular history and archaeology. This study is framed with reference to the postmodern theoretical paradigm of ‘authorised heritage discourse’ and critical realism, and employs a mixed method approach to the research, and employs documentary analysis and interviews with current staff working with historic heritage at the Department of Conservation.  The main finding emerging from this research is that heritage assessment is an essential, if not pivotal, but under-utilised element of heritage management, and that appropriate outcomes for heritage can only be reached through a more effective heritage assessment framework. The dissertation concludes that currently the Department of Conservation heritage assessment framework fails to achieve this to a suitable standard, makes several recommendations for change, and argues that it is only by addressing the situation DOC will be able to deliver maximum outcomes for heritage in an increasingly resource-constrained environment – and continue to accomplish sustainable heritage management, what one respondent called ‘the art of the achievable’.</p>

The present paper represents a study that examines the relationship between the concepts associated with kitsch and quality approached as antagonistic concepts, for which was considered the direct connection to the product and its defining characteristics described as the product features, colour, form, material and dimensioning. Considering the relative influence of the proposed features, it was generated a series of concepts that represent the basis of the analysis format, on which numerical values will be assigned. The research contributes to industrial product design assessment in the situation where the product is approached from the perspective of the intrinsic components of the perceived value, being proposed an analysis model that starts from the relative importance ratios of the product features considered in direct relation with a correspondent assigned value.

This paper reports the results of calculating the magnetic parameters for a direct dipole magnet in the system of vertical convergence-separation of particle beams of the upper and lower rings of the heavy-ion collider. An optimized variant of the yoke and superconducting winding structures has been obtained, providing for the assigned value of a homogeneous magnetic field inside the aperture at the minimized contributions of higher-order harmonics, average-integral along the length. The results from the analysis of the transverse projections of the magnetic induction obtained by 2D modeling of two variants of the design of the central cross-section of the dipole electromagnet are presented. The analysis results have established the dependence of the stability of magnetic parameters in the aperture of the electromagnet when the current in the winding changes on the volume of those yoke regions whose magnetization value is close to saturation. A 3D model of the magnetically active part has been built for two variants of the electromagnet design, and the values of the average-integral harmonics of transverse projections of magnetic induction in the aperture have been calculated. The relationship between the third average-integral harmonic of magnetic induction and the size lengths of the yoke and winding has been empirically established, making it possible to correct the heterogeneity of the transverse magnetic field in the aperture of the electromagnet. The results of optimization of the structure of the magnetically active part of the electromagnet are presented on the criteria for a minimum of the values of the average-integral coefficients of magnetic induction, carried out on the basis of correction of the initial geometric parameters of the yoke and winding. An improvement in the stability of magnetic parameters has been demonstrated, by 3 times, as well as a two-fold reduction in the contribution to the heterogeneity by the third average-integral harmonic when using a two-row arrangement of the winding turns inside the yoke in the design of the electromagnet

The work examines the methodology for assessing the homogeneity of the control sample of interlaboratory qualification tests, which is the most important characteristic of determining its status. The criterion for assessing the homogeneity between the characterizing values of the samples is the root mean square deviation and standard deviation of the proficiency test of the control sample with the standard uncertainty of the assigned value, which is a requirement of the ISO 13528 standard. Ignoring this requirement may provoke a false assessment of the participated laboratories taking corrective action.

Abstract This paper considers a planning dispute that surrounded the construction of a Jewish religious installation (called an eruv) in the public urban space of an Australian suburb. The aim of this case-study is to examine the role of law in regulating Jewish difference – a topic that has to date received little attention in the socio-legal literature concerned with the governance of religious diversity. In analysing residents’ objections to the eruv, the paper explores long-standing anxieties about Jewish particularity in Australia and beyond as they surfaced in opposition to the eruv. It shows how the law continues to exclude certain forms of Jewish difference that are perceived as transgressing dominant religious and racial norms. Moreover, the paper highlights the particular ways in which planning law assigned value to these anxieties and legitimised the marginalisation of Orthodox Jews, emphasising the significance of local law as a site for exclusion and inequality.

Different variants of algorithms for processing the internal signals of the measuring device of integrating solid-state wave gyroscopes are synthesized. The main attention is paid to the consideration of subtle factors affecting the accuracy of calculation of gyroscope output signals and measurement signals of internal circuits to ensure their effective operation. For this purpose, different models of capacitive sensor signals in the gyroscope measuring device and the measured structure of standing waves in its resonator are preliminarily considered. The traditional aggregation of sensor signals into measuring device signals is described. First, variants of algorithms for capacitive direct-current operating measuring devices are systematized and thoroughly analyzed. They are divided into algorithms with tuning for periodicity of resonant oscillations and without tuning for periodicity. Variants of calculations differing in accuracy are presented for: the angle of the operating standing wave, proportional to the measured rate of the gyroscope base rotation; the amplitude of the operating quadrature standing wave for the internal circuit of its assigned value maintenance; the amplitude of the quadrature standing wave for the internal circuit of its suppression; the frequency of the operating standing wave for tuning of the excitation system of resonator oscillations and for implementation of the digital quadrature coherent demodulator of the measuring device. It is shown that in the majority of practical applications algorithms with tuning to periodicity of resonant oscillations are more preferable from the point of view of the computational complexity. And computationally labor-intensive algorithms without periodicity tuning are intended for measuring increased angular velocities with the reduced time of "freezing" of measured parameters. Further the given algorithms for the direct-current measuring device are generalized on algorithms of processing of measuring signals when operating with the alternating current. The variants of computational algorithms reduction to the algorithms previously synthesized for the direct current are described. They mainly use demodulation of AC voltage signals, including digital processing of modulated signals using a high-speed analog-to-digital converter. In addition, algorithms for information extraction from AC measuring device signals with demodulation at the combined frequency of modulated signals are synthesized. The different variants of single-band demodulation of measurement signals and also algorithm of double-band demodulation of measuring device signals with the extended list of measured quantities are considered. The choice of the necessary algorithm depends on the requirements to the measured angular velocities, on the constructive implementation of the gyroscope measuring device and on the choice of technical characteristics of its components.

As a result of the increasing need to study the choice of the assigned value during the inter-laboratory comparisons is becoming more and more relevant. Since the assigned value is a reference point when comparing the results of the participants of the qualification test. Frequently, qualification verification providers face a number of problems when choosing the assigned value. An incomplete analysis of the results of interlaboratory comparisons will lead to an inaccurate assessment of the competence of the laboratory, which contributes to the revocation of the certification of the accreditation of the laboratory participant. This article attempts to provide a complete statistical analysis of the results of interlaboratory comparisons from the beginning to the end of the tour with the content of all statistical analyses recommended in GOST ISO/IEC 17043-2013. The results of interlaboratory comparisons conducted in testing laboratories of Kazakhstan aimed at ensuring metrological traceability of pH measurements in a buffer solution are presented. The reference values of the buffer solution are determined in the state scientific metrological center.

In the literature, an extensive work on sequential fixed-width confidence interval for the parameter of U( q, m q) model, where m > 1 is known, is available. In this article, we propose a two-stage sampling procedure for estimating the parameter q of U( aq, bq) distribution, where a < b are positive and known. Here, the risk of an estimator [Formula: see text] of q is less than a pre-assigned number w (>0), that is, [Formula: see text], 0 < A < ∞ is known. We determine the parameter Bk of stopping variable so that the risk is uniformly bounded by a pre-assigned value w. We have also tabulated the values of the expected stopping time and its standard deviation (SD).
