Increasingly warships such as frigates and Offshore Patrol Vessels (OPV) are being used at slow-speeds either in constabulary duties or as part of a "poise and persistence without commitment" role to support other military activities. When operating in this way for long periods the main engine (ME) can be deleteriously affected and may require occasional loading-up to avoid coking etc. To avoid this, auxiliary motors are often provided to allow main engines to be rested to avoid maintenance related running hours. Sizing the motor is a trade-off between parameters such as: available Diesel Generator (DG) set power, together with the operational needs of the vessel, the fuel consumption, and emissions. This paper explores the solution space for the 90m Venator frigate design by studying a range of motors and converters of different ratings to see how these parameters are affected and to identify those which are most important to the ship's roles. Military issues such as the crash-stop, lower noise, and heat signatures, loiter with persistence and redundancy are also explored together the vulnerability benefits. Operating in the littoral with a motor drive leads to less noisefrom main engines and gearboxes and makes better use of the ship's DG sets which can be acoustically isolated. The upkeep benefits and the greater range of reversionary modes for propulsion should individual equipment, such as the controllable pitch propellers (CPP) are also addressed.

In this paper I would like to reflect on discipline as a category (as opposed to other possibilities, such as notion, structure, norm, protocol, etc.), and explain the quotation marks in the title, as they can always follow and amend the word discipline. my intention is to reconstruct a decades-long resistance to discipline (as punishment, control, violent pedagogy, militarism, fanaticism, masculinity, unfreedom), and to uncover the origin of praise for self-discipline, un-discipline or interdisciplinarity. Further, I would like to offer a few arguments in favor of discipline as one of the most important protocols of social ontology, and the unconditioned condition of cooperation, life and group work. Discipline is joint learning, as well as production and a nurturing of knowledge that constitutes and sustains an institution. the question is whether individuals' discipline indeed makes an institution necessarily better or more just. © 2019 CSIC.

This paper analyses the conception of things, the classification of principal and auxiliary things generally and particular kinds of auxiliary things (essential parts of principal things, fruit, production, income and appurtenances) in Roman, Lithuanian and foreign countries' law. Legal regulation of Lithuania and foreign countries (Latvia, Italy, Quebec province of Canada, France, Austria Russia), the practice of Lithuanian Supreme Court and Lithuanian legal doctrine, concerned with principal and auxiliary things, was analysed in order to achieve the purpose of this paper. The most part of practical problems of Lithuanian law are concerned with appurtenances and essential parts of principal things. Fruit, production and income usually are concerned with theoretical problems. Their analysis is based on evaluation of possible positive and negative effects, correspondence to purposes of legislator and correspondence to legal doctrine.

To some extent, the early twentieth century revival of universal languages was the work of logicians and mathematicians. Pioneers of modern logic such as Frege, Russell and Peano wanted to overcome the diversity and deficiencies of natural languages. Through the rigour of formal logic, they aimed at providing scientific thinking with a reliable medium free from the ambiguity and inconsistencies of ordinary language. This article shows some interconnections between modern logic and the search for a common tongue that would unite scientists and people of all nations. The French mathematician and philosopher Louis Couturat is a key figure in understanding the interplay between these two movements. Through his work in composing the Ido language as an alternative to Esperanto, Couturat gave a new life to the Leibnizian idea of a universal characteristics. In addition, his multifaceted work provides a valuable insight into some political implications of early analytic philosophy.

ABSTRACT: Despite the existence of a great number of studies that have analysed ellipsis from a theoretical point of view, only recently has it been studied empirically using corpora (Hardt 1997; Hardt and Rambow 2001; Nielsen 2005; Bos and Spenader 2011). These corpus studies have tried to discover new methods and algorithms for the automatic detection and retrieval of ellipsis in Present-Day English. In this paper, I extend these studies by presenting an automatic retrieval algorithm for cases of Post-Auxiliary Ellipsis in Late Modern English (1700-1914), using data from the Penn Parsed Corpus of Modern British English. ; I am grateful to the following institutions for generous financial support: the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness and the European Regional Development Fund (grant no. FFI2013-44065-P), and the Autonomous Government of Galicia (grant no. GPC2014/060).

A number of books in recent years have analysed the reasons behind R.B.Haldane's radical decision to create a home defence auxiliary designed to replace the Militia, Yeomanry and Rifle Volunteers. Rather than cover again material which has already been extensively examined, this study concentrates on the formation of the several auxiliary bodies which were intended to assist the new Territorial Force in its defence of mainland Britain. The thesis also looks at the dynamics which, in 1914, prompted the spontaneous emergence of another, unofficial auxiliary, the Volunteer Training Corps. Regarded with disdain and contempt by the War Office, the VTC, later the Volunteer Force, was used by the political authorities as a means by which the civilian population could, without excessive government expenditure, be encouraged to take an active part in the defence of its country. The Volunteer Force developed into a recognized body of part-time auxiliary soldiers which became, in time, intimately involved with the workings of the tribunal system and with the concepts of total war and universal sacrifice. In contrast to the military authorities' distrust of the Volunteers, the Government decided that political expediency demanded it partially support and eventually fund the movement. Although awarded a post-war certificate of appreciation, the Volunteers were denied any real official recognition of their patriotism and commitment. Research into Britain's auxiliary forces of the early twentieth century has largely ignored the contribution of the National Reserve, Corps of Guides, Royal Defence Corps and the Volunteer Force: their existence has occasionally been acknowledged but there has been no adequate study of the role of these bodies in the context of what some historians regard as a nation-in-arms. An examination of government documents, the papers of individuals closely involved in home defence and, in particular, the minute books of the County Territorial Associations, has revealed a sometimes bizarre and occasionally bewildering picture of Government and War Office contradictions. By unravelling the nature and complications of the political and military difficulties involved in raising and maintaining Britain's auxiliary forces, this thesis attempts to develop recent research on the character, controversies and contribution of Britain's part-time amateur soldiers.

The author provides a new evidence of the Roman auxiliary forts located in the hinterland of Salona – a capital of the province of Dalmatia. The first fort is located at the site called Ograde, near the hamlet of Živaljići in the village of Gardun. It controlled the crossing over the river Cetina from the area of Vojnić and Gardun towards Čaporice. The second fort is located above the karstic plateau of Turjački Podi, on the hilltop known as Radašuša, which controlled the natural route that connected Salona with Aequum. The evidence of these two forts provide a better knowledge of the overall organisation of the garrison in the hinterland of Salona, and by connecting the previous data, it is now evident that this garrison was organised as a complex system of control of the entrance to the main port on the Eastern Adriatic.

As banking has evolved over the last three decades, banks have become increasingly interconnected. This Article draws attention to an effect of this development that has important policy ramifications yet remains largely unexamined – a dramatic rise in interbank discipline. The Article demonstrates that today's large, complex banks have financial incentives to monitor risk taking at other banks, They also have the infrastructure, competence, and information required to be fairly effective monitors and mechanisms through which they can respond when a bank changes its risk profile. Interbank discipline thus affects bank risk taking, discouraging banks from taking some types of risk while potentially encouraging the assumption of others. Given its influence, ignoring the phenomenon can lead to inefficiencies and gaps in bank regulation. The rise of interbank discipline has positive and negative ramifications from a social welfare perspective. 'The good news is that self-interested banks may be expected to penalize a bank when it takes excessive risks, thereby deterring such risk taking. he bad news is that the interests of banks and society are not always so well aligned. Other banks, for example, may be expected to reward a bank when it changes its risk profile in a way that increases the probability that the government would bail the bank out rather than allowing it to fail. This is because a bailout protects a bank's counterparties and other creditors, even though socially costly. Interbank discipline ma thus encourage barks to alter their activities in ways that increase systemic fragility. In drawing attention to the powerful yet mixed effects of interbank discipline on bank activity, this Article contributes to a new generation of scholarship on market discipline. Its aim is not to question whether we need regulation, but to address the pressing issue of how we should allocate inherently finite regulatory resources. By reducing the regulatory resources devoted to activities that other banks are performing relatively well, increasing the resources devoted to activities that regulators are uniquely situated or incented to address and seeking to counteract the adverse effects of interbank discipline, bank oversight could be redesigned to more effectively promote the stability of the financial system.

This Article draws attention to an effect of this development that has important policy ramifications yet remains largely unexamined – a dramatic rise in interbank discipline. The Article demonstrates that today's large, complex banks have financial incentives to monitor risk taking at other banks, the infrastructure, competence, and information to be fairly effective monitors, and mechanisms through which they can respond when a bank changes its risk profile. This suggests that interbank discipline affects bank risk taking and merits more consideration than it has received thus far. The rise of interbank discipline has both positive and negative ramifications from a social welfare perspective.

Abstracts Background Understanding Role Stress is important as health service providers, especially nurses experience high levels of Role Stress which is linked to burnout, poor quality of care and high turnover. The current study explicates the concept of Role Stress and assesses the Role Stress experienced by the Auxiliary Nurse Midwives (ANMs) working with rural government health centres from Gujarat, India. Methods The study included 84 ANMs working with government health centres from one district in India. A structured instrument with established reliability and validity was used to measure 10 dimensions of Role Stress namely: Inter-role distance, role stagnation, role expectation conflict, role erosion: role overload, role isolation, personal inadequacy, self-role distance, role ambiguity and resource inadequacy. The study instrument was based on 5 point Likert rating scale that contained 50 unidirectional negative statements, 5 for each dimension. Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilk test were carried out to assess if the data were normally distributed. Cronbach's alpha test was carried out to assess reliability of the instrument. The study data was analyzed using descriptive statistics mainly using mean scores with higher scores indicating higher Role Stress and vice versa. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 19. Results Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilk test indicated that the data were normally distributed. Cronbach's alpha test indicated values of 0.852 suggesting high reliability of the tool. The highest Role Stress among ANMs was experienced for resource inadequacy. Role overload, role stagnation and inter-role distance were among the other important role stressors for ANMs. The study results suggests that ANMs frequently feel that: they do not have adequate amount of resources, facilities and financial support from the high levels authorities; people have too many expectations from their roles and as result they are overloaded with work and have very limited opportunities for future growth. Conclusion The current study has the potential to provide a useful and a comprehensive framework to understand the Role Stress among the health service providers that could be further useful in designing interventions specifically aimed at reducing Role Stress in order to prevent burnout thereby addressing the productivity and retention.

Im Mittelpunkt der Untersuchung stehen die Vorbereitung, Gestaltung sowie die Funktionen von Zusammenkünften byzantinischer Kaiser mit fremden Herrschern im Zeitraum von 395 bis 1204. Bei der Vorbereitung und Gestaltung der Begegnungen konnten die Protagonisten situationsspezifisch aus einen "Pool" bewährter Bausteine schöpfen. Diese Bausteine können vier Phasen einer Zusammenkunft zugeordnet werden: Vorbereitung und Anreise, erstes Aufeinandertreffen, Zusammensein sowie Abschied und Heimreise. Dabei waren an den Treffen nicht nur die zusammenkommenden Herrscher, sondern auch die dem Ereignis beiwohnende Öffentlichkeit beteiligt. Da unter deren Augen Aussagen über das Verhältnis, in dem die Herrscher zueinander standen, getroffen wurden, waren derlei Zusammenkünfte in aller Regel sorgfältig inszenierte Ereignisse, bei denen nichts dem Zufall überlassen wurde. Sie waren zudem insbesondere geprägt von leicht verständlichen symbolischen Handlungen, die einen hohen Wiedererkennungswert hatten.

Nach einigen Vorläufern im 17. Jahrhundert wurde der Begriff Crisis in der politischen Publizistik Großbritanniens vor allem im parteipolitischen Diskurs nach der Revolution von 1688/89 virulent. Aber erst der Publizist Richard Steele etablierte 1714 den Begriff Crisis in einem so betitelten Pamphlet als Schlagwort im öffentlichen Diskurs. Mit der Begriffsverwendung verband sich bei Steele aber keineswegs eine ausgefeilte Zeitdiagnose. Vielmehr nutzte er Crisis als Absatz fördernden und auf den Effekt zielenden Signalbegriff. In der politischen Pamphletistik trat Crisis das Erbe des älteren Signalbegriffs Popery an, zu dem Steele 1714 noch die Brücke geschlagen hatte. Die Briten besaßen um 1700 ein gewisses Vorverständnis über die Bedeutung von Crisis, was nicht nur die Funktionsweise des Signalbegriffs erklärt, sondern auch die Debatte um die Zulässigkeit dieser Begriffsverwendung, die sich jeweils an Steeles Krisenpamphlete von 1714 und 1720 anschloss. Letztlich trug diese Debatte aber nur zur weiteren Popularisierung des Begriffs bei.

The author provides a new evidence of the Roman auxiliary fort located on the right bank of the River Krka, in the cadastral municipality of Radučić village, next to the hamlet of Ljevaje. The fort was a part of the garrison of Burnum, which controlled the main crossing over the River Krka, i.e. the crossing over the former travertine barrier of 'Čavlinov buk'. This evidence provides a new insight of the layout of garrison of Burnum, which was organized in a very different way than previously thought. It has been established that the Roman military garrison of Burnum was formed along the River Krka, from Radučić to Ivoševci, with the objective of controlling the key crossings over the travertine barriers of Čavlinov buk, Bilušića buk, Brljan and Manojlovac. Therefore, alongside the legionary fortress, three auxiliary forts were placed in the immediate vicinity of these river crossings
