A comparative study on mean value modelling of two-stroke marine diesel engine

In the present paper, two mean value modelling approaches of varying complexity, capable of simulating two-stroke marine Diesel engines, are presented. Both approaches were implemented in the computational environment of MATLAB Simulink®. Simulation runs of transient operation cases of a large two-stroke marine Diesel engine were performed. The derived results were validated against previously published data are used for comparing the two modelling approaches and discussing the advantages and drawbacks of each

Open Knowledge Report (2017-2018)

IUPUI University Library's Open Knowledge Report (2017-2018).This report includes all Wikimedia-related activities from January 1st, 2017 to December 31, 2018. It covers events hosted at IUPUI University Library and the Ruth Lilly Medical Library, and projects focused on making our archival collections, library-hosted publications, and the scholarly output of our faculty members more accessible. In addition, it includes a list of relevant publications as well as presentations given at various conferences as a way of sharing ongoing efforts and increasing awareness of Open Knowledge projects

Introducing library students to library conferences: Reflections on a student-led conference from two recent graduates

Library and information science (LIS) students benefit from an introduction to professional library conferences during their graduate studies. While they are invited to attend library conferences, participating can be intimidating without prior experience. To provide this necessary experience, the ALA student chapter at the University of Michigan School of Information (UMSI) has hosted QuasiCon, an annual student-led conference, for the last five years.https://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/146534/1/2017StuitandThielen_IntroducingLibraryStudentstoLibraryConferences.pdfDescription of 2017StuitandThielen_IntroducingLibraryStudentstoLibraryConferences.pdf : Articl

[Grußwort zur Eröffnung der Tagung: 6th Frankfurt Scientific Symposium, GNARP und wie sie die Welt sieht: Aussichten transatlantischer Partnerschaft im digitalen Zeitalter: 5.10.2006 - 7.10.2006]

... This year's Scientific Symposium of the University Library is already number six in the row. It was again prepared and organised like some of the previous conferences together with our North American partners. This means that a continuous specialists’ discussion and a professional partnership have been already installed. All librarians and information managers are invited to learn more about the results of this co­operation every year when it's time for the next Symposium during Frankfurt Book Fair. ..

The Late Miocene Southern and Central Taranaki Inversion Phase (SCTIP) and related sequence stratigraphy and paleogeography

We present a new sequence stratigraphic scheme for Taranaki Basin that identifies four 3rd order duration (3 - 4 m.y.) sequences of Middle Miocene to Pleistocene age. These include: (i) the late-Middle Miocene (upper Lillburnian to uppermost Waiauan) Otunui Sequence; (ii) the Late Miocene (lower and lowermost-upper Tongaporutuan) Mt Messenger Sequence; (iii) the latest Miocene (uppermost-upper Tongaporutuan) to Early Pliocene (lower Opoitian) Matemateaonga Sequence, and (iv), the Late Pliocene (upper Opoitian) to Late Pleistocene (Castlecliffian) Rangitikei Sequence, which includes the Giant Foresets Formation offshore in northern Taranaki Basin. Full sequence development can be observed in the parts of these four sequences exposed on land in eastern Taranaki Basin and in Wanganui Basin, including the sequence boundaries and component systems tracts; the character of the various depositional systems and their linkage to correlatives in subsurface parts of Taranaki Basin can be reasonably inferred, although we do not develop the detail here. Our sequence framework, with its independent age control, is integrated with established evidence for the timing of Late Miocene structure development in southern Taranaki (the Southern Inversion Zone of King & Thrasher (1996)) and new evidence presented here for the extent of Late Miocene unconformity development in central Taranaki. This shows that the Mt Messenger Sequence, particularly its regressive systems tract, results from a major phase of tectonism in the plate boundary zone, the crustal shortening then extending into the basin at c. 8.5 Ma and differentially exhuming parts of the sequence and underlying units in southern and central Taranaki Basin. This Southern and Central Taranaki Inversion Phase (SCTIP) peaked at around 7.5 Ma (mid-upper Tongaporutuan). At that time it extended across the whole of the area presently covered by Wanganui Basin, all of southern Taranaki Basin (Southern Inversion Zone), west to the Whitiki and Kahurangi Faults, and across southern parts of Taranaki Peninsula. We have also identified in outcrop sections, wireline logs for Peninsula exploration holes, and selected seismic reflection profiles, the occurrence of forced regressive deposits of the Mt Messenger Sequence. These deposits are mainly preserved beneath distal parts of the unconformity and basinward of it in central Taranaki Peninsula and west to the Tui Field, and need to be distinguished from the much younger Giant Forests Formation within the 3rd-order Rangitikei Sequence, which also shows clinoform development. The new sequence framework with its inferred stratal patterns also helps clarify understanding of the lithostratigraphic nomenclature for Late Miocene – Pliocene units beneath Taranaki Peninsula

Magic graphs and the faces of the Birkhoff polytope

Magic labelings of graphs are studied in great detail by Stanley and Stewart. In this article, we construct and enumerate magic labelings of graphs using Hilbert bases of polyhedral cones and Ehrhart quasi-polynomials of polytopes. We define polytopes of magic labelings of graphs and digraphs. We give a description of the faces of the Birkhoff polytope as polytopes of magic labelings of digraphs.Comment: 9 page
