Abstract Jameson's “myth” identifies reification as the leading cause of cultural change. The myth also adumbrates the semiotic form of post‐postmodernism and post‐post‐postmodernism, which Jameson himself did not explore. One of the most extreme varieties of post‐post‐postmodern verse is the would‐be blank poem, pursued by Russian Futurists, Lettrists,

The Problem of Psychonomic Harmony
ABSTRACT The problem of nomological harmony is the problem of explaining why the laws of nature match or apply to the states of the universe in a way that results in temporal evolution. The problem of psychophysical harmony is the problem of explaining why phenomenal states are paired with physical states and other phenomenal states in surprisingly ...

Finite element analysis on squeal-noise in railway applications [PDF]
In this paper, we present the results of an experimental investigation on squeal noise emitted by a disc brake for railway applications. The measurement, that show in an evident manner the onset of instability forms during the braking phase were made on ...

A NOISE SUPPRESSION METHOD BASED ON COMPLEX EIGENVALUE ANALYSIS OF DISC BRAKE VIBRATION (MT)
Focusing on investigating the brake squeal problem of a disc brake at 3 000 Hz. To this end, the noise of this frequency is reproduced on the bench, the laser Doppler vibration measurement technology is used to obtain the operational deflection shape(ODS)

The relationship between intergenerational mobility and equality of opportunity
Abstract Among economists, the analysis of social mobility and the role of parental background is largely carried out in two separate strands of research. The intergenerational mobility literature estimates parent–child persistence in some outcome of interest, such as income.
