...Chapter 1 Introduction Standard aircraft design processes have traditionally been divided in the following stages []: * Feasibility studies: design needs to satisfy prescribed performance requirements along with other geographical and cost constraints, * Conceptual design: design on paper or on computer, involves analysis tools covering performance evaluation in different maneuvers, * Preliminary design: laying of proper moulds for building airframes, * Prototype building: finally arriving at a scaled down prototype, * Wind tunnel testing: on the developed prototype for aerodynamics database generation, * Flight testing: * Stability and control augmentation * Certification: requires an airplane to satisfy certain handling and flying qualities requirements. This design process thus have nearly always left the stability and dynamics aspects to the end, where six degrees of freedom of motion are used to evaluate flying and handling qualities of aircraft. Finally, if these criteria do not match with the required satisfaction level of pilot or the industry standards, design of control systems are needed. To our knowledge (due to proprietary nature of the trade) and based on text book information, no analysis tools has been developed in the past for aircraft design which uses six degree of freedom equations of rigid aircraft motion right from the beginning. This is primarily due to the multi-objective iterative nature of the problems one needs to...

...forms of businesses that can be selected when a new business is being established, or a previously established business is considering changing legal form. These legal forms of business each have innate advantages and disadvantages related to legal liability, taxes, continuity, and control. The legal forms of business include: sole proprietorship, general partnership, limited partnership, C-corporation, S-corporation, and Limited Liability Company. Other forms of business include: family limited partnership, professional partnership, professional corporation, and personal services corporation, but for the purposes of this document we will include only the most common and appropriate. We'll discuss the characteristics of each of these legal forms of business below. Sole Proprietorship: Sole Proprietorship is the most common form of business in the United States. This is most likely due to the ease with which this form of business can be established. In the United States more than 17 million companies are operated under the form of sole proprietor, this equates to approximately 73 percent of all businesses in this country. Sole Proprietorship is an unincorporated form of business which can be established simply and with very few legal formalities. Local permits and licensing are all that would be required in order to establish a sole proprietorship, unless the business intended to operate under a name other than that of its owner. A sole proprietorship can be terminated just as...

...will also be discussed. We will be focusing on Bipolar I Disorder for the purposes of this paper. Paper submitted to Prof. Kiely for Psychology 201, 8/17/2010 Treatment of Bipolar Disorder - 3 Introduction Bipolar disorder, also known as manic depression, is a mood disorder that causes shifts in mood from mania to depression. During times of mania, one feels as if they are on a “high” and experience a high level of energy, racing thoughts, are easily distracted, and have a decreased need for sleep. During times of depression, one feels a decreased level of energy and activity, as well as low-self esteem. Various sources indicate variable types of bipolar disorder, but the main ones are: ♦ Bipolar I Disorder: this is the most common type of BD; the individual experiences at least one episode of mania and one episode of depression ♦ Bipolar II Disorder: as opposed to “full-blown manic episodes” (M. Smith, et al, 2009), individuals with Bipolar II Disorder experience manic episodes of lower intensity (known as hypomania) as well as severe depression. ♦ Cyclothymia: the milder form of...

...the presence of the pulse is questionable (mainly because of expressive purposes). The prominent motive for the first section is SL (SL) SSSL (SL) LSSSL (SL). For the whole piece, there are a number of different subdivisions for every beat as the piece continues and develops so quickly and so often. Although, common subdivisions for the piece are two and four. The piece began slow with its first motive and elaborated and transformed until a spontaneous re-appearance of the first motive. Though seldom, the theme is extended by a spinning and varied continuation of the basic motive. In this piece, the melody tends to achieve balance. Through subdivision, it avoids growing unrest and supports comprehensibility by limitation. Thoroughly dramatic, the piece included a series of key modulations. The second section began quietly yet quick with tempo, slightly recalling a theme from the first section. The theme develops as the tempo increases as with volume with crescendos to reach a point where a seemingly new motive enters. This new motive enters after the momentum gain and outbursts in its new main theme. This theme is followed by a calm development and continuation. The piece continues on to a greater tempo and an accumulation of octaves of notes accompanied by a crescendo are played for a significant conclusion. On a poetic note, the piece began like an announcement. It was as if it is trying to establish a presence, and once the presence was...

Sales Behavior and Sales Success Small Sales Selling Techniques • The traditional selling techniques that most of us have been trained to use work best in small sales – a sale which can normally be completed in a single call and which involves a low dollar value. These selling techniques don’t work for major sales and in fact can hurt your success as the sales grow larger. Longer Selling Cycle - Whereas a simple low-value sale can often be completed in one call, a major sale may require many calls spread over a period of months. Building Value is Critical to Sales Success - As the size of the sale increases, successful salespeople build up the perceived value of their products or services. The building of perceived value is probably the single most important selling skill in larger sales. On-going Relationship – As the sales grows larger, the customer puts more emphasis on the salesperson as a factor in the decision. In a large sale, product and seller may become inseparable in the customer’s mind. The Risk of Mistake – Customer’s become more cautious as the decision size increases. Purchase price is one factor, but fear of making a public mistake may be even more important. • Characteristics of Major Sales • • • • simplest to the most sophisticated, goes through four distinct stages: • The Four Stages of a Sales Call - almost every sales call, from the Preliminaries – These...

...vision of a family is not as strong as it seems in the Greek and roman stories. There are many strengths and weaknesses about having a family. The strengths of having a family are the unification of everyone and the continuation of the bloodline. There is a sense of loyalty and commitment to those who have common ancestry. Family members work hand and hand to accomplish a mission. There’s a high sense of family spirit filled with pride and trust in one another, where families work together to maintain their reputations and status in society. There’s a sense of duty and obligation to other family members in need. For families can serve as a support pillar for members to lean on. Some weaknesses about having a family are internal rivalry on issues and leniency to members due to blood ties. Decision-making is affected due to emotional ties to families and traditions that can’t be challenged. Sometimes, families are made due to arranged marriages and political reasoning where there isn’t any love or faithfulness. Therefore, it caused adultery and corruption leading to an unhappy family. Even with all the strength and weaknesses of families, there are reasons why families are preserved and disintegrated. The preservation of families is mainly for the continuation of the bloodline and to produce a successor. The survival of the family is based on expansion over the generations, so that the family name will not die out. Odysseus was the king of Ithaca, husband of Penelope, father...

...More commonly, the contemporary or liberal Christians conclude that Genesis 1 and 2 are poetic. In regards to understanding common ancestry with God, one must comply with this belief. In regards to the timing of biblical records of creation, “history narrative as a discipline did not exist.” It was more common to tell figurative stories to help people understand important factors of life, including creation. In “Is the Genesis Creation Account Poetry?” Wayne Jackson explains that after the time of the Greeks, the method of historical writings seemed to officially emerge (Jackson). This does not mean that the information in the figurative stories lacked full historical truth. Instead, it shows that the history is represented in a different way...

...The death penalty, black point of the American democracy Unfortunately Death penalty still exists and is applied in the U.S.A. According to Amnesty International, 58 countries around the world have maintained the capital punishment. United States included. Who has never heard of this controversial and polemical debate? The death penalty is controversial due to its lack of coherence regarding to basic human rights. First of all, it was shown that the American model has advocated democracy and self- determination in the entire world. Consequently, the presence of death penalty in a democratic and developed country can appear as a strange contradiction. How this singularity can be perceived and explained ? As the sociologist Arnaud Gaillard explains in the newspaper “Le Monde”, several hypotheses are possible. Firstly, the violent environment shown by the legalization of guns or the important criminality would agree that death penalty has been part of the American culture for decades. Another plausible cause proposed by A.Gaillard is the young age of the population influencing the construction of the United States by its excesses. This argument can seem excessive since young people should be in favor of the system’s abolition. The youth are certainly more open-minded than the past generation. It is contradictory to Gaillard’s argument. Then, if we look at the death penalty itself...

Diagnosing ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is difficult, and misdiagnosis can lead to unnecessary and prolonged antibiotic treatment. We sought to quantify and characterize unjustified antimicrobial use for VAP and identify risk factors for continuation of antibiotics in patients without VAP after 3 days. methods. Patients suspected of having VAP were identified in 6 adult intensive care units (ICUs) over 1 year. A multidisciplinary adjudication committee determined whether the ICU team’s VAP diagnosis and therapy were justified, using clinical, microbiologic, and radiographic data at diagnosis and on day 3. Outcomes included the proportion of VAP events misdiagnosed as and treated for VAP on days 1 and 3 and risk factors for the continuation of antibiotics in patients without VAP after day 3. results. Two hundred thirty-one events were identified as possible VAP by the ICUs. On day 1, 135 (58.4%) of them were determined to not have VAP...

...Kings. Historical Narrative in 2 Kings | Poetry in Psalms | The book uses historical narratives as a style of writing. Its main content is a continuation of the history in 1 Kings. The history opens with the translation of Elijah into Heaven, and ends with the story of ungodly Jews moving to Babylon (Tanzer, 2012). Chapter One of 2 Kings sets the record of its documentation of what happened in the past, appearing in prosaic style. This passage assumes that its contents are the actual records of what transpired, and does not give much room for evaluation (Wilt, 2014). | Chapter One, just like the entire books of Psalms employs the poetic style in the presentation of its contents. The content is presented in the form of a poem, which gives the book a distinct structure. Unlike in Chapter One of 2 Kings, characterized by narration, there is an element of meter, alphabetic matching, as well as rhythm in the book of Psalms. Furthermore, there is a sense of hyperbole and fantasy in the content, which makes the message more poetic, enhancing its effectiveness to the readers (Gaebelein, 2013). | As a wrap up therefore, it is evident that even though different books of the Bible have different styles of writing, there are common themes that underlie in them. For instance, the first chapters in both 2 Kings and Psalms share a common theme, in which there are consequences...

...Risk Associated in the business in the business diversification activity 1. Creation of a new or common corporate culture between Exxon and Mobil 2. Retention of key employees with the right knowledge and expertise 3. Meeting regulatory and anti-trust requirements to prevent dissolution and maintain competitiveness Merger Risks Unfortunately, any merger between two established companies creates challenges that must be overcome in order to achieve the projected benefits. These include creating a new/common culture as opposed to the distinct cultures of the independent companies, meeting regulatory and antitrust requirements to assure the continued functioning of a competitive marketplace, and retention of key personnel to reap the benefits of their knowledge and expertise. The companies have significantly different corporate cultures. Exxon is a conservative company with a strong ethic of following the rules handed down from above, while Mobil is more liberal and expects individuals to think for themselves and develop their own solutions to the problems that arise. On the regulatory front, as the top two U.S. oil companies, there are many markets throughout the United States where Exxon and Mobil dominate the sale of gasoline, either through directly-owned filling stations or through franchisees. It is highly probable that regulators will require divestiture of some filling stations and release of some franchisees from their contracts in order to maintain...

...TB and Women Background: Tuberculosis(TB) is an infectious bacterial disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which most commonly affects the lungs. It is transmitted from person to person via droplets from the throat and lungs of people with the active respiratory TB disease. In healthy people, infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis often causes no symptoms, since the person’s immune system acts to “wall off” the infection. These people have latent TB infection, where they do not feel sick and cannot spread the bacteria to others. However, in some cases, the bacteria continue to multiply in the body making a person sick with active TB disease. The symptoms of active TB of the lung are coughing, sometimes with sputum or blood, chest pains, weakness, weight loss, fever and night sweats. It is a disease of poverty affecting mostly young adults in their most productive years. The vast majority of TB deaths are in the developing world. Left untreated, each person with active TB disease will infect on average between 10 and 15 people every year and this continues the TB transmission. Overall, one-third of the world’s population is currently infected with the TB bacillus. 5-10% of people who are infected with TB bacilli (but who are not infected with HIV) become sick or infectious at some time during their life. People with HIV and TB infection are much more likely to develop TB. The risk for developing TB disease is also higher in persons with diabetes, other chronic...

...Is corporate culture the answer to depersonalised, bureaucratic work (Weber, 1922) or is it simply the continuation of bureaucratic control by other means? Corporate culture is “the way we do things around here” (Kotter, Heskett, 1992). It represents a system of shared values and beliefs that interact with people, organisational structures, and systems to produce norms (Balkaran, 1995). What corporate culture does is to influence employee perception, behavior and work attitudes. Compared to Bureaucracy, which has written, inflexible rules and consists of systems of administrations distinguished by its clear hierarchy of authority; corporate culture represents the personality of an organization and appeals to the emotional, non-rational, affective elements within employees (Ray, 1986). The purpose of this essay is to prove that corporate culture is the solution to the problem of depersonalized bureaucratic work. In the first part I will examine the differences between corporate culture and bureaucracy, and why corporate culture contains the possibility of being the best and most efficient system of control so far. And in the second part I will analyse if there are any similarities between both types of organisational controls; whilst also assessing whether there are any possibilities for the corporate culture to be just a continuation of the bureaucratic control by other means. Bureaucracy defined by Warwick is a “type of organisation designed...
