    The technique of developing a mathematical model of catalytic isomerization of light naphtha is stated Using experimental data from an industrial isomerization unit shows adequacy of the mathematical model to the real process. The paper presents a method for optimizing the operation of the plant together with catalytic isomerization unit and separation columns. Selection of optimal modes of separation columns allows achieving the desired flow separation between units, as well as extension of the life of the catalyst SI-2

    Temporary techno-social gatherings? A (hacked) discussion about open practices

    Get PDF
    This paper is rooted in an experimental inquiry of issue-oriented temporary techno-social gatherings or TTGs, which are typically referred to as hackathons, workshops or pop-ups and employ rapid design and development practices to tackle technical challenges while engaging with social issues. Based on a collaboration between three digital practitioners (a producer, a researcher and a designer), qualitative and creative data was gathered across five different kinds of TTG events in London and in Tartu which were held in partnership with large institutions, including Art:Work at Tate Exchange within Tate Modern, the Mozilla Festival at Ravensbourne College and the 2017 Association of Internet Researchers conference hosted in Tartu. By analysing data using an open and discursive approach manifested in both text and visual formats, we reflect on the dynamic and generative characteristics of TTG gatherings while also arriving at our own conclusions as situated researchers and practitioners who are ourselves engaged in increasingly messy webs where new worlds of theory and practice are built

    'John S. Rarey and Cruiser' portrait photograph

    Full text link
    This portrait of John S. Rarey (1827-1866) and his horse, Cruiser, was painted by Miner K. Kellogg (1814-1889). This photograph was taken after the painting's restoration. The three-quarter-length portrait shows Rarey standing and wearing a dark suit and tie. Cruiser (1852-1875) is standing to his right. The horse's head rests just above Rarey's right shoulder. Rarey's right hand is reaching under the horse's neck, while his left is at his side holding a leather strap. Over Rarey's left shoulder is an American flag. The painting is signed by the artist and dated 1860. A native of Groveport, Ohio, Rarey gained international fame using kindness, firmness, and patience to train previously unmanageable horses. His innovative methods captured international attention and secured him invitations to tour Europe, Canada, and Russia. In a legendary demonstration, Rarey tamed a vicious horse named Cruiser in three hours and was given the animal as a reward. He then went on to exhibit Cruiser and his techniques throughout the United States and Europe. Miner K. Kellogg was born in Manlius, New York, but moved to Cincinnati, Ohio, with his family as a young boy. Kellogg was known for his portraits, landscapes, and religious scenes, and for arranging art exhibitions. His portraits of famous men include those of Presidents Washington, Jackson, Van Buren, Polk, and Garfield, General Winfield Scott, and Sir Stratford Canning. In the 1850s Kellogg traveled and painted in Europe and the Near East, and became an art collector of considerable discernment. He died in Toledo, Ohio. Rarey and Kellogg met in England in 1860 while both were at the pinnacle of their careers; Kellogg painted the portrait at that time
