Having been delivered about 3 years ago of a paper for the Society's Centenary Journal on the subject of rotorcraft in retrospect—without, apparently, undue birth pains—I was led to think some months ago, when I was asked to write a similar paper—this time on the prospect for rotorcraft in the next 100 years—that the process would perhaps be equally painless. However, unwittingly, I had made one grave logical mistake: I did not realise that this time I was involved with an altogether different bairnie! In looking backwards one is concerned with collecting and collating factual matter from various sources, comparing present views with the views held at the time, and with such hindsight arriving at fairly positive conclusions, a more or less routine logical process, the quality of which is mainly measured by the care taken in considering all important factors in sufficient detail to ensure valid conclusions.

This paper is an attempt to apply to the phonological hierarchy in particular views expressed recently by Pike (Pike, 1972) on the nature of linguistic hierarchies in general. In a paper presented to the 11th International Congress for Linguistics, Bologna, 1972, entitled Recent developments in tagmemics, Pike spoke of the possibility of developing ‘paired levels’ or a ‘paired ladder’ in a hierarchy. His main concern in that paper, and in a similar paper presented to the German branch of the Summer Institute of Linguistics, 1971, was with the grammatical hierarchy. It is my aim in this paper to show that ‘paired levels’, or ‘double ranks’ as I shall call them, apply equally well in the phonological hierarchy, and that they offer interesting possibilities of (a) developing the notion of interpenetration of hierarchies and (b) broadening the field of general theoretical categories of language.

PurposeA recursive scheme for the ALIENOR method is proposed as a remedy for the difficulties induced by the method. A progressive focusing on the most promising region, in combination with a variation of the density of the alpha-dense curve, is proposed.Design/methodology/approachALIENOR method is aimed at reducing the space dimensions of an optimization problem by spanning it by using a single alpha-dense curve: the curvilinear abscissa along the curve becomes the only design parameter for any design space. As a counterpart, the transformation of the objective function in the projected space is much more difficult to tackle.FindingsA fine tuning of the procedure has been performed in order to identity the correct balance between the different elements of the procedure. The proposed approach has been tested by using a set of algebraic functions with up to 1,024 design variables, demonstrating the ability of the method in solving large scale optimization problem. Also an industrial application is presented.Originality/valueIn the knowledge of the author there is not a similar paper in the current literature.

The article published by Ilankovic et al., 2013 [1] has been retracted by Editor-in-Chief because corresponding author published the similar paper in Psychiatria Danubina in 2014 [2]. An internal investigation has raised sufficient evidence of the originality in the first paper [1] and self plagiarism in the second paper [2]; as such, we retract this article from the literature on request by corresponding author and in accordance with guidelines and best editorial practices from the Committee on Publication Ethics. We apologize to our audience about this unfortunate situation.

Ehsan SOURTIJI and Mofid GORJI-BANDPY, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Babol University of Technology, Babol, Mazandaran, Iran, published in the journal Thermal Science, Vol. 21, Year 2017, No. 5, pp. 2205-2215, asked Editor-in-Chief to retract paper since after positive reviews of the two reviewers, paper was published without final permission of the authors. Since, authors have not been informed by Editor-in-chief of the journal THERMAL SCIENCE, about publishing of their paper, they published similar paper in the journal Powder Technology, Volume 262, August 2014, Pages 71-81, <https://doi.org/10.1016/j.powtec.2014.04.061>. Due to this fact authors asked from Editor-in-chief of the journal THERMAL SCIENCE to retract their paper published in this journal. <br><br><font color="red"><b> Link to the retracted article <u><a href="https://doi.org/10.2298/TSCI130804001S">10.2298/TSCI130804001S</a></b></u>

Presented are new parameters for the calculation of L subshell ionization cross sections for proton impact using a semiempirical expression. A similar paper was published by our group in early 1993 but the fitting parameters were obtained by using only 2295 experimental L shell cross section data. Since then a large number of experimental data have become available and therefore a new fitting has been performed employing more than 5000 data points. All available data were fitted separately for L1, L2 and L3 subshells. For targets with low atomic numbers (14≤Z≤42), only coefficients for L tot were obtained. Because of the slight Z dependence of the universal function, data were also devised into five sub-groups according to their atomic numbers and fitted separately within each group for L1, L2 and L3 subshells. To extend the energy range of validity of the new fitting function theoretical values were used in the high energy region where experimental data were lacking. Results are compared with ECPSSR predictions and discussed.

An attempt was made to determine what effect implementation of the APA Ethical Principles would have on cognitive and affective data collected in a classroom setting. A total of 126 graduate and 90 undergraduate male and female subjects were assigned randomly to six treatment groups. The groups were provided different levels of information on a continuum ranging from no disclosure to full disclosure on the purpose and expectations of the research. A logical task and Scott's Academic Self-concept Scale were given. The data among all treatment groups yielded nonsignificant differences, which is inconsistent with published literature on artifacts in research. The results indicated that implementation of ethical principles in one classroom setting may not affect the internal validity of research with similar paper-and-pencil tasks.

The performances of paper pulp mould and foam net as packaging materials for mango transportation were studied and compared. Mangoes were packed in both types of packaging materials, vibration tested, and left for 24 days. Firmness, weight loss, and colour changes were measured. It is found that firmness of mangoes in both types of packaging during the first 3 days and slowly afterwards. The performances of both types of packaging are similar. Paper pulp mould performed better with regards to weight loss. Colour changes as measured by lab equipment are not conclusive but through naked eyes paper pulp mould seemed to perform better. It is concluded that paper pulp mould as a packaging material performs better than foam net in some respects, therefore an interesting alternative packaging material.
