This thesis is focused on a crudeoil pipeline repair technology at the dead plate. The thesis is devided into 4 basic parts (chapters). The openning chapter describes reasons for performing regular pipeline inspections regarding pipeline's defects and technology of defects repair. The second chapter is devoted to the particular repair technology - cut out of a damaged pipeline part and its replacement by a new pipeline piece - with a detail description of preliminary and consenquential assembly activities (safety and environmental aspects). This chapter also comprises a list of documents confirming technical qualification and readiness for repairs execution. The third chapter is aimed at proposition and verification of the welding method by means of non-destructive and destructive testing of a test circumferential weld according to the proposed weld procedure specification – WPS. There are presented the results of particular tests and complex evaluation of the welding process design by the inspection organization. The last, fourth chapter deals with a calculation of general costs of repair execution which is an important part of a final pricing.

The cohouse is a smarter type of housing, where we can find solutions through sharing. It combines the home with the social meeting place, resembling an indoor/outdoor fusion. My intention with this project is to create a housing that is unfinished, a continuous project. Where the residents are encouraged to try other ways of living. Where the rooms are not only made up by walls but also created by the bodies of people, forever changing and rearranged - a continuous space.

For every positive, decreasing, summable sequence $a=(a_i)$, we can construct a Cantor set $C_a$ associated with $a$. These Cantor sets are not necessarily self-similar. Their dimensional properties and measures have been studied in terms of the sequence $a$. In this thesis, we extend these results to a more general collection of Cantor sets. We study their Hausdorff and packing measures, and compare the size of Cantor sets with the more refined notion of dimension partitions. The properties of these Cantor sets in relation to the collection of cut-out sets are then considered. The multifractal spectrum of $\mathbf{p}$-Cantor measures on these Cantor sets are also computed. We then focus on the special case of homogeneous Cantor sets and obtain a more accurate estimate of their exact measures. Finally, we prove the $L^p$-improving property of the $\mathbf{p}$-Cantor measure on a homogeneous Cantor set as a convolution operator.

Cette thèse, La représentation féminine chez Alain Robbe-Grillet, a pour objectif d’étudier la place primordiale occupée par la femme dans les œuvres de cet auteur. La femme joue bien évidemment un rôle essentiel dans la vie des hommes. Elle représente le noyau de la vie. Depuis des siècles, elle est source d’inspiration artistique et lieu de controverse. Pour cette raison, la femme a retenu notre attention. [...] / This thesis, which deals with the representation of women in Alain Robbe-Grillet’s work, aims at studying the essential place occupied by women in in his different novels. Naturally, women play an essential part in the life of men. They represent the essence of life. For centuries, she is artistic source of inspiration and place of controversy. That is why the role played by women in Alain Robbe-Grillet’s work seems to us particularly important. [...]

La animación de tóner, procesos y principios Éste trabajo parte de la unión de dos intereses personales, por un lado el referido a la animación y por otro el copy-art. Fruto de ésta combinación y siguiendo una metodología principalmente empírica se ha alumbrado lo que podemos llamar "la animación de tóner", una posible nueva técnica de animación experimental de naturaleza analógica. La realización de un estudio pormenorizado de los posibles antecedentes en el campo de la animación de autor y de la electrografía nos permitió empezar a valorar la originalidad y potencialidad de la animación de tóner. Tomando en cuenta las características y limitaciones de dichos precedentes, se profundizó en la parte técnica de las máquinas electrográficas de impresión buscando la posibilidad de generar imágenes de tóner en estado latente (base de ésta tesis). Con todo éste bagaje, y a base de pequeñas experimentaciones, se ha llegado a desarrollar un modelo para el que se han establecido los requerimientos mínimos y los procedimientos necesarios para su óptima funcionalidad. Proceso que bien puede funcionar de manera autónoma o bien en simbiosis con su técnica hermana, la animación de arena. Finalmente, para estudiar y describir su particular forma y las aportaciones expresivas de ésta al ámbito de la animación de autor, se realizó una pequeña pieza demostrativa que reuniera todas las cualidades referidas a lo largo de la tesis y que validara la técnica en cuestión. / González Monaj, R.

The thesis deals with analyses of the laboratory symmetrical supplies with adjustable output voltage. It also describes different kinds of current cut-out circuits and several most frequent supply connection schemes. Analyses (simulation program OrCAD) show the characteristics and behaviour of the mentioned supplies. To set the output voltage, operational amplifier structures or linear three-terminal voltage regulator are very often used. The suggested supply was tested and its parameters compared with the simulations. The value of output voltage and current can be controlled with a computer with a USB port. For controlling of the output voltage and current the digital potentiometers were used and controlled by I2C bus.
