The writings of Morel, Wildermuth, Binder, Gradengo, Vali, Frigerio, Eyle, Schwalbe, have familiarised us with several types of ear; and this, together with Bertillon's work, perhaps forms the bulk of our knowledge on the subject. Recently, in America, good summaries have been published by Meyer and Peterson.

The subject of the article is a new method that I have developed for calculating a multi-asset break-even for multi-assortment production, extended by a percentage threshold and a current sales ratio (which was missing in previously published methods). The percentage threshold provides unambiguous information about the economic health of a company. As a result, it became possible to use it in practice to evaluate the activities of economic entities (mines) and to perform modelling and optimisation of production plans based on different variants of customer demand scenarios. The publication addresses the complexity of the problem of determining the break-even in multi-assortment production. Moreover, it discusses the practical limitations of previous methods and demonstrates the usefulness of the proposed method on the example of hard coal mines.

TRIZ method has long proven its value without appearing to the industrial world as inevitable. Design researchers have therefore addressed the limitations of the TRIZ method and have overcome them with more systematic approaches. Among these, the Inventive Design Method (IDM) has been the subject of several articles and put into practice in the industry. It is considered an improvement over TRIZ but still suffers from some drawbacks in terms of the time-consuming nature of its implementation. We focused on the IDM process by trying to both identify its areas of inefficiencies while attempting to preserve the quality of its deliverables. Our approach consists of applying the precepts of Lean to IDM. The result is the Inverse Problem Graph (IPG) method, inspired by IDM, but offering significant progress in reducing the time required to mobilize experts while preserving its inventive outcomes. This article outlines our approach for the construction of this new method.

ABSTRACTBased on the “Imaginando I” and “Imaginando II” Teaching Innovation Projects, developed in the Documentary Sciences Faculty of the Complutense University of Madrid in 2012 and 2013 with excellent results, an open and universal learning method is proposed with the production and analysis of photographs, that can be applied to all the subject matters and areas of knowledge. The use of a picture in teaching, as well as its analysis (reading and interpretation) is a task pending university study. For this reason, we propose, following prior investigation, the application of a new method which would facilitate the involvement of students in the learning process at the same time that an image bank would be created which could be easily accessed and used in teaching.RESUMENBasándonos en los proyectos de Innovación Docente “Imaginando I” e “Imaginando II”, desarrollados en la Facultad de Ciencias de la Documentación de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid en los años 2012 y 2013 con un resultado excelente, se propone un método de aprendizaje abierto y con carácter universal desde la generación y el análisis de la fotografía aplicable en todas las disciplinas y áreas de conocimiento. El uso de la imagen en la docencia, así como su análisis (lectura e interpretación) es una tarea pendiente de los estudios universitarios. Es por ello que, derivado de una investigación previa, proponemos la aplicación de un nuevo método que facilite la implicación de los alumnos en el proceso de aprendizaje, y al mismo tiempo la creación de bancos de imágenes de acceso libre utilizables en la enseñanza.

The article is a review of the book "Sources of the meaning of life: a new method of personality psychodiagnostics" by the Belarusian psychologist K.V. Karpinskij. It is argued that the meaning of life became the subject of special psychological research only in the 20th century. In recent years, there have been many breakthroughs in this area, and undoubted progress is visible. There was a transition to the interpretation of the meaning of life as a systemic, that means, in other words, multicomponent and multilevel mental education. In his previous works K.V. Karpinskij subjected the problem of the psychology of the meaning of life to a comprehensive analysis. This book has no analogues among the observable thematic literature and contains new theoretical ideas, original methodological solutions and rich factual material, which together form a new look at the key methodological issues of the psychology of the meaning of life. First of all, this is a question about the subject and method of research. Despite the fact that the study of the psychology of the meaning of life is largely represented in foreign psychology, the author of the monograph consistently adheres to the methodology of Russian psychology. The book offers the author's methodology "Sources of the meaning of life", which was created with a full understanding of the advantages and disadvantages, opportunities and limitations of existing foreign analogues. Being a diagnostic complex in its composition, this technique has incorporated proven diagnostic techniques, as well as completely new techniques for studying the meaning of life. The methodology clearly surpasses the existing tools in its diagnostic (research) capabilities.

Art. 64. The subject of the partition of numbers, for its proper development, requires treatment in a new and more comprehensive manner. The subject-matter of the theory needs enlargement. This will be found to be a necessary consequence of the new method of regarding a partition that is here brought into prominence.

SynopsisIn his inaugural address the President, dealing with the subject of research in connection with climatic and occupational rates of mortality, suggested that the Faculty might consider the advisability of the question being remitted to a committee to consider and report. In consequence a Sub-Committee was appointed by the Faculty Mortality Committee on 21st November 1930 to consider the subject of extra premiums for occupational and climatic risks generally. The time therefore seems appropriate for the submission to the Faculty for discussion of a paper on this subject.The paper falls naturally into two sections. Section I contains a summary of the work which has been done in the past, chiefly in this country and America : it is hoped that it will form a convenient source of information on the subject, and further, that it will be of use inasmuch as any new method should rest on the basis of a full study of what has been done in the past. It may be mentioned that no attempt has been made to criticise or in any way to indicate the value or otherwise of the studies summarised. Endeavour has been made to include all the more recent studies which have a bearing on the subject under discussion, but it is of course difficult to avoid overlooking some which should have been included.In Section II consideration is given to the methods used in the past, particularly to those employed in connection with the Joint Occupation Study. This leads to the formulation of an object for the proposed statistical investigation, and attention is then given to the problems of attaining this object with particular reference to the needs and practice of assurance companies in this country. A brief description is given of how the proposed investigation might be undertaken, and the following subjects are dealt with :—(a) the hazardous groups to be investigated;(b) the methods of recording the data ;(c) the methods of collecting the data.The relation of the proposed investigation to the Continuous Mortality Investigation now proceeding and to any medico-actuarial investigation which, may be contemplated is discussed ; the suggestion is made that a comprehensive system of collecting the data should be instituted and that the information necessary for a standard, an occupational and climatic, and a medico-actuarial mortality investigation should be embodied on one uniform mortality card.

Electrical Prospecting

In two papers published in Geophysics, one in the October, 1944, issue and the other in October, 1946, a system and method of calculation, called “Resistolog” method, was presented. The object of the Resistolog method is to eliminate the effects of superficial inhomogeneities which are the most troublesome obstacles in interpreting electrical sounding results in exploring deep, horizontal discontinuities. The following is a discussion of the papers mentioned above, mainly of the subject of (1) the apparent‐resistivity formula derived for use with the Resistolog configuration, (2) determination of inflectional points on apparent resistivity curves, (3) depth of penetration, and (4) distortion caused by the “far electrode.” A new method to determine inflectional points is also given. This paper includes a comprehensive knowledge about the forementioned papers and the reader may not have to refer to them.

The Subject

A great deal has been written, especially in the last few years, on the subject of collision at sea. The increase, however, in the speed of ships and in the density of traffic so magnifies the complexity of the problem that even closer and more earnest study is still called for. Three fields of inquiry demand our attention: technical advances, procedure, and the human factor. Of these, the widest and most promising might seem to be the first. Its importance is undeniable, and I am by no means the only one to have pointed out that with the new difficulties it raises it supplies also the appropriate solution. Even wider, however, and more complex is the field of human study; this covers both the others, for in this the final objective is to enable men to master what they have won for themselves, and this they cannot do—here we meet the familiar problems of philosophy, ethics and religion—unless they first learn to master themselves.Compared with these two fields, the technical and the human, that of procedure must at first seem quite insignificant. Can one seriously imagine that there is in fact some new method of avoiding collisions, so abstruse that no one has yet been able to discover it? In my small book on the use of radar I wrote: ‘The Regulations envisage two ways of avoiding collision:1. A movement carried out in concert with the other vessel.2. A reduction of speed, if necessary to zero.

Stratigraphic Sequences

For a number of years the subject of California archaeology has undergone a great deal of discussion. A large measure of this discussion has been concerned with the problem of chronology. Heizer (1949) has postulated a classification of cultural and temporal relationships for central California. His chronology is based primarily on stratigraphic sequences together with intrasite comparisons and geological-chemical soil and bone analysis.This paper is an attempt to examine a part of his sequences using a new method for the chronological ordering of archaeological deposits (Brainerd 1951; Robinson 1951). The material to follow will be divided into three categories: 1) theory and method; 2) a discussion of the sequences resulting from the application of the method used here; and 3) the nature of the conclusions which one may safely draw in the light of 1) and 2) above.

Although several proofs have been published showing the completeness of the propositional calculus (cf. Quine (1)), for the first-order functional calculus only the original completeness proof of Gödel (2) and a variant due to Hilbert and Bernays have appeared. Aside from novelty and the fact that it requires less formal development of the system from the axioms, the new method of proof which is the subject of this paper possesses two advantages. In the first place an important property of formal systems which is associated with completeness can now be generalized to systems containing a non-denumerable infinity of primitive symbols. While this is not of especial interest when formal systems are considered as logics—i.e., as means for analyzing the structure of languages—it leads to interesting applications in the field of abstract algebra. In the second place the proof suggests a new approach to the problem of completeness for functional calculi of higher order. Both of these matters will be taken up in future papers.The system with which we shall deal here will contain as primitive symbolsand certain sets of symbols as follows:(i) propositional symbols (some of which may be classed as variables, others as constants), and among which the symbol “f” above is to be included as a constant;(ii) for each number n = 1, 2, … a set of functional symbols of degree n (which again may be separated into variables and constants); and(iii) individual symbols among which variables must be distinguished from constants. The set of variables must be infinite.
