Paula ja Jari rakentavat taloa. Jari on Paulaa vanhempi, jalat maassa oleva insinööri. Paula opiskelee ja etsii vielä itseään. Pakkaa sekoittaa lapsuudessa ja nuoruudessa koetut vääryydet tai oikeammin väärinkäsitykset. Paula etsii vastausta meediolta, jonne hänet on houkutellut petollinen ystävä Sofia. Jari kipuilee murtuneena omien muistojensa kanssa. Hän pettää Paulaa Sofian kanssa, vain yhden kerran, hän vannoo. Paula joutuu sairaalaan. Jari makaa sohvalla ja itkee lapsuuttaan. Paula astuu remmiin ja huolehtii, että talo valmistuu ajallaan. Näytelmän lopussa selviää, että molemmat naiset ovat raskaana ja tilanne ratkeaa pahimmalla mahdollisella tavalla. Kyseessä on puhdas ihmissuhdedraama. Ikäero ja luonteiden erilaisuus ei välttämättä selitä kaikkea.
This book is aimed at postgraduate students in applied mathematics as well as at engineering and physics students with a ?rm background in mathem- ics. The ?rst four chapters can be used as the material for a ?rst course on inverse problems with a focus on computational and statistical aspects. On the other hand, Chapters 3 and 4, which discuss statistical and nonstati- ary inversion methods, can be used by students already having knowldege of classical inversion methods. There is rich literature, including numerous textbooks, on the classical aspects of inverse problems. From the numerical point of view, these books concentrate on problems in which the measurement errors are either very small or in which the error properties are known exactly. In real-world pr- lems, however, the errors are seldom very small and their properties in the deterministic sensearenot wellknown.For example,inclassicalliteraturethe errornorm is usuallyassumed to be a known realnumber. In reality,the error norm is a random variable whose mean might be known.
Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) is an automatic identification method, relying on storing and remotely retrieving data using devices called RFID tags or transponders. An RFID tag is a small object that can be attached to or incorporated into a product, animal or person. An RFID tag contains an antenna to enable it to receive and respond to Radio-Frequency (RF) queries from an RFID reader or interrogator. Passive tags require no internal power source, whereas active tags require a power source. As of today (2006), the concepts of ubiquitous computing and ambient intelligence are becoming widespread. In order for these to become a reality, a number of key technologies are required. In brief, these technologies need to be sensitive, responsive, interconnected, contextualised, transparent and intelligent. RFID, and in particular passive RFID tags, are such a technology. In order to deliver the necessary characteristics that could lead to ambient intelligence, however, there are some challenges that need to be addressed. Remote powering of the tags is probably the most important challenge. Issues concerning the antenna-tag interface and the rectifier design, that allow the RF signal to be converted to Direct Current (DC) are top priorities. Secondly, the communication link and the reader should be optimized. The RF signal that contains the tag data suffers from a power of four decay with the distance between tag and reader. As a result, both the reader sensitivity and the tag backscattered power efficiency have to be maximized. Long-range powering, as well as sufficient communication quality, are the guidelines of this work. This work proposes a linear two-port model for an N-stage modified-Greinacher full wave rectifier. It predicts the overall conversion efficiency at low power levels where the diodes are operating near their threshold voltage. The output electrical behavior of the rectifier is calculated as a function of the received power and the antenna parameters. Moreover, the two-port parameter values are computed for particular input voltages and output currents for the complete N-stage rectifier circuit, using only the measured I-V and C-V characteristics of a single diode. Also presented in this work is an experimental procedure to measure how the impedance modulation at the tag side affects the signal at the reader. The method allows the tag designer to efficiently predict the effect of a modulator design at the system level and gives a useful instrument to choose the most appropriate impedances. Finally, the design of a fully-integrated, remotely powered and addressable RFID tag working at 2.45GHz is described. The achieved operating range at a 4W Effective Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP) reader transmit power is at most 12 m. The Integrated Circuit (IC) is implemented in a 0.5 um silicon-on-sapphire technology. A state-of-the-art rectifier design is embedded to supply energy to the transponder. Inductive matching and a folded-dipole antenna are key elements for achieving this performance.
Adolescence is a journey to adulthood. This book seeks to examine the ways in which young people navigate through this period of their lives, and the consequences their efforts have on their well-being and problem behaviours. In twelve chapters, European researchers will conceptualize, present data and discuss the following: 1) the explorations and commitments adolescents construct as tools with which to direct their lives across the diversity of pathways to adulthood 2) the kinds of identities and self-concepts they develop during this process 3) the role of significant others, such as parents and peers, play in this navigation through adolescence.
This book offers an illuminating account of the development of Soviet music and music political discussions in the 1920s and the 1930s. With its innovative conceptual historical approach, the work examines the discussions on Soviet music in close relation both to pre-revolutionary cultural ideas of Russia and political demands of the newly established Soviet state. By analyzing the use and transformations of such political concepts as democracy, people, Russia, and Europe in the context of Soviet music, the book sheds light on the complex negotiations on the role of music and culture in a revolutionary society. Consequently, the idea and the concept of the ‘revolution’ itself comes to be seen in a new light. Furthermore, as the key political concepts in the Soviet Union were the same as in other modern societies of the early 20th century, the book proposes that Soviet cultural ideas should not be viewed in isolation but rather in a close dialogical connection with the cultural ideas in other parts of Europe. The book is beneficial to scholars and students on Russian and Soviet music, music history, Soviet political and cultural history, and Russian area studies.
This important book investigates the emergence and development of a distinct concept of self-awareness in post-classical, pre-modern Islamic philosophy. Jari Kaukua presents the first extended analysis of Avicenna's arguments on self-awareness - including the flying man, the argument from the unity of experience, the argument against reflection models of self-awareness and the argument from personal identity - arguing that all these arguments hinge on a clearly definable concept of self-awareness as pure first-personality. He substantiates his interpretation with an analysis of Suhrawardi's use of Avicenna's concept and Mulla Sadra's revision of the underlying concept of selfhood. The study explores evidence for a sustained, pre-modern and non-Western discussion of selfhood and self-awareness, challenging the idea that these concepts are distinctly modern, European concerns. The book will be of interest to a range of readers in history of philosophy, history of ideas, Islamic studies and philosophy of mind.
