Inte bara fysisk styrka - En kvalitativ studie om kriminalvårdares syn på klienternas hierarkiska maskulinitetskonstruktion
Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur personalen på en specifik kriminalvårdsanstalt beskriver hur klienternas konstruktioner av manlighet påverkar klienternas positionering hierarkiskt. Studien syftar även till att undersöka hur dessa manlighetskonstruktioner står i relation till anstaltsmiljön och den homosociala klientgruppen. För att besvara detta har vi genomfört en kvalitativ studie där sju semistrukturerade intervjuer gjorts med kriminalvårdare som arbetar på en specifik anstalt.
Resultaten visar att personalen på kriminalvårdsanstalten uttrycker att vissa specifika manlighetsuttryck är avgörande för den hierarkiska positioneringen de ser att klienterna hamnar i. Erfarenhet, tung brottslighet och framgång beskrivs som viktiga faktorer. Även klienternas fysiska styrka och utseende beskrevs vara av viss innebörd för placeringen i hierarkin på anstalten. Viktigast var att ha en fysiskt fungerande kropp och att inte vara sjuk. Respondenterna upplever att klienterna har en allmänt avog inställning till homosexualitet och att detta kopplas ihop med vikten av att ta avstånd från det feminina. Det som beskrevs som det viktigaste uttrycket för maskulinitet och som var överlägset alla andra egenskaper var det som personalen kallade ”mental styrka”. Att vara mentalt stark beskriver personalen som att vara orädd, inte gråta och att klienten orkar upprätthålla den roll som denne tagit på sig att spela. Att visa känslor, gråta och vara rädd beskriver informanterna som oacceptabelt hos klienterna och att detta enbart är något som uppvisas i enskildhet med personal. I våra resultat fann vi att personalen uppfattade att den mentala styrkan var den viktigaste egenskapen i den hegemoniska maskuliniteten och att en homosexuell man kan ha övertag över en heterosexuell man på anstalten, om denne är mycket mentalt stark. Alltså upplevde personalen att homosexualitet inte var något avgörande för en underordnad hierarkisk placering

Sin resume
High temperature, low-cycle fatigue of copper-base alloys for rocket nozzles. Part 2: Strainrange partitioning and low-cycle fatigue results at 538 deg C
Low-cycle fatigue tests of 1/2 Hard AMZIRC Copper and NARloy Z were performed in argon at 538 C to determine partitioned strain range versus life relationships. Strain-controlled low-cycle fatigue tests of a Zr-Cr-Mg copper-base alloy were also performed. Strain ranges, lower than those employed in previous tests, were imposed in order to extend the fatigue life curve out to approximately 400,000 cycles. An experimental copper alloy and an experimental silver alloy were also studied. Tensile tests were performed in air at room temperature and in argon at 538 C. Strain-controlled low-cycle fatigue tests were performed at 538 C in argon to define the fatigue life over the regime from 300 to 3,000 cycles. For the silver alloy, three additional heat treatments were introduced, and a limited evaluation of the short-term tensile and low-cycle fatigue behavior at 538 C was performed
High temperature, low-cycle fatigue of copper-base alloys in argon. Part 1: Preliminary results for 12 alloys at 1000 F (538 C)
Short-term tensile evaluations at room temperature and 538 C and low-cycle fatigue evaluations at 538 C are presented for the following materials: Zirconium copper-annealed, Zirconium copper-1/4 hard, Zirconium copper-1/2 hard, Tellurium copper-1/2 hard, Chromium copper-SA and aged, OFHC copper-hard, OFHC copper-1/4 hard, OFHC copper-annealed, Silver-as drawn, Zr-Cr-Mg copper-SA, CW and aged, Electroformed copper-30-35 ksi, and Co-Be-Zr- copper-SA, aged. A total of 50 tensile tests and 76 low-cycle fatigue tests were performed using a strain rate of 0.2 percent per second
High temperature, low cycle fatigue of copper-base alloys in argon. Part 3: Zirconium-copper; thermal-mechanical strain cycling, hold-time and notch fatigue results
The low-cycle fatigue characteristics of smooth bar and notched bar specimens (hourglass shape) of zirconium-copper, 1/2 Hard, material (R-2 Series) were evaluated at room temperature in axial strain control. Over the fatigue life range from about 300 to 3000 cycles the ratio of fatigue life for smooth bar to fatigue life for notched bar remained constant at a value of about 6.0. Some additional hold-time data for the R-2 alloy tested in argon at 538 C are reported. An analysis of the relaxation data obtained in these hold-time tests is also reported and it is shown that these data yield a fairly consistent correlation in terms of instantaneous stress rate divided by instantaneous stress. Two thermal-mechanical strain cycling tests were also performed using a cyclic frequency of 4.5 cycles per hour and a temperature cycling interval from 260 to 538 C. The fatigue life values in these tests were noticeably lower than that observed in isothermal tests at 538 C
High-temperature, low-cycle fatigue of advanced copper-base alloys for rocket nozzles. Part 2: NASA 1.1, Glidcop, and sputtered copper alloys
Short-term tensile and low-cycle fatigue data are reported for five advance copper-base alloys: Sputtered Zr-Cu as received, sputtered Zr-Cu heat-treated, Glidcop AL-10, and NASA alloys 1-1A and 1-1B. Tensile tests were performed in argon at 538 C using an axial strain rate of 0.002/sec. Yield strength and ultimate tensile strength data are reported along with reduction in area values. Axial strain controlled low-cycle fatigue tests were performed in argon at 538C using an axial strain rate of 0.002/sec to define the fatigue life over the range from 100 to 3000 cycles for the five materials studied. It was found that the fatigue characteristics of the NASA 1-1A and NASA 1-1B compositions are identical and represent fatique life values which are much greater than those for the other materials tested. The effect of temperature on NASA 1-1B alloy at a strain rate of 0.002/sec was evaluated along with the effect of strain rates of 0.0004 and 0.01/sec at 538 C. Hold-time data are reported for the NASA 1-1B alloy at 538 C using 5 minute hold periods in tension only and compression only at two different strain range values. Hold periods in tension were much more detrimental than hold periods in compression
Cloning of a Carcinoembryonic Antigen Gene Family Member Expressed in Leukocytes of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Patients and Bone Marrow
The carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) gene family belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and can be subdivided into the CEA and pregnancy-specific glycoprotein subgroups. The basic structure of the encoded proteins consists of, in addition to a leader, one IgV-like and 2, 3, or 6 IgC-like domains. These domains are followed by varying COOH-terminal regions responsible for secretion, transmembrane anchoring, or insertion into the membrane by a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol tail. Here we report on the characterization of CGM6, a new member of the CEA gene subgroup, by complementary DNA cloning. The deduced coding region comprises 349 amino acids and consists of a leader, one IgV-like, two IgC-like domains, and a hydrophobic region, which is replaced by a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol moiety in the mature protein. CGM6 transcripts were only found thus far in leukocytes of chronic myeloid leukemia patients, in normal bone marrow, and in marginal amounts in normal granulocytes. The CGM6 gene product might, therefore, represent a myeloid marker. Analyses of CGM6 protein-expressing HeLa transfectants with monoclonal antibodies strongly indicate that the CGM6 gene codes for the CEA family member NCA-95
High-temperature, low-cycle fatigue of advanced copper-base alloys for rocket nozzles. Part 1: Narloy Z
Short-term tensile and low-cycle fatigue data are reported for Narloy Z, a centrifugally cast, copper-base alloy. Tensile tests were performed at room temperature in air and in argon at 482, 538 and 593 C using an axial strain rate of .002/sec to the -1 power. In addition tensile tests were performed at 538 C in an evaluation of tensile properties at strain rates of .004 and .01/sec to the -1 power. Ultimate and yield strength values of about 315 and 200 MN/sq m respectively were recorded at room temperature and these decreased to about 120 and 105 respectively as the temperature was increased to 593 C. Reduction in area values were recorded in the range from 40 to 50% with some indication of a minimum ductility point at 538 C
Co2 FeAl thin films grown on MgO substrates: Correlation between static, dynamic and structural properties
Co2FeAl (CFA) thin films with thickness varying from 10 nm to 115 nm have
been deposited on MgO(001) substrates by magnetron sputtering and then capped
by Ta or Cr layer. X-rays diffraction (XRD) revealed that the cubic CFA
axis is normal to the substrate and that all the CFA films exhibit full
epitaxial growth. The chemical order varies from the phase to the
phase when decreasing the thickness. Magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) and
vibrating sample magnetometer measurements show that, depending on the field
orientation, one or two-step switchings occur. Moreover, the films present a
quadratic MOKE signal increasing with the CFA thickness, due to the increasing
chemical order. Ferromagnetic resonance, MOKE transverse bias initial inverse
susceptibility and torque (TBIIST) measurements reveal that the in-plane
anisotropy results from the superposition of a uniaxial and of a fourfold
symmetry term. The fourfold anisotropy is in accord with the crystal structure
of the samples and is correlated to the biaxial strain and to the chemical
order present in the films. In addition, a large negative perpendicular
uniaxial anisotropy is observed. Frequency and angular dependences of the FMR
linewidth show two magnon scattering and mosaicity contributions, which depend
on the CFA thickness. A Gilbert damping coefficient as low as 0.0011 is found.Comment: 11 pages, 11 figures, to appear in Phys. Rev
Magnetic and structural properties of Co2FeAl thin films grown on Si substrate
The correlation between magnetic and structural properties of Co_{2} FeAl
(CFA) thin films of different thickness (10 nm<d< 100 nm) grown at room
temperature on MgO-buffered Si/SiO2 substrates and annealed at
600\lyxmathsym{\textdegree}C has been studied. XRD measurements revealed an
(011) out-of-plane texture growth of the films. The deduced lattice parameter
increases with the film thickness. Moreover, pole figures showed no in-plane
preferential growth orientation. The magneto-optical Kerr effect hysteresis
loops showed the presence of a weak in-plane uniaxial anisotropy with a random
easy axis direction. The coercive field measured with an applied field along
the easy axis direction and the uniaxial anisotropy field increase linearly
with the inverse of the CFA thickness. The microstrip line ferromagnetic
resonance measurements for in-plane and perpendicular applied magnetic fields
revealed that the effective magnetization and the uniaxial in-palne anisotropy
field follow a linear variation versus the inverse CFA thickness. This allows
deriving a perpendicular surface anisotropy coefficient of -1.86 erg/cm2Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, submitted to J. Mag. Mag. Ma
