GAME, SET, STYLE: UNVEILING THE FASHION SECRETS OF TENNIS DRESS CODE

Clothing in the game of tennis is one of the most important elements in the sport, both in terms of the role it plays, and the impact of the historical tradition it holds. Over centuries, both clothing and tennis shoes have undergone massive evolution, transitioning from traditional attire to more practical and technologically advanced designs. This evolution has not only enhanced the players' performance but has also contributed to the financial development of tennis through effective marketing strategies. Clothing in the game of tennis has always had a set of specific characteristics, often passed down from one generation to another as an unwritten rule. Although it does not have a major role in how a tennis match is influenced, it has a significant financial impact, through the important role of marketing reflected by associating the apparel with important figures in tennis. Throughout history, tennis clothing has evolved, abandoning many of its traditional aspects, opting for a much more practical version of the way they are made in the context of innovation, technology and design (durability, style and sustainability). Despite embracing innovation and modern design principles, certain traditional elements persist, notably exemplified by the strict dress code of prestigious events like Wimbledon. Similarly, tennis footwear has experienced significant transformations, largely driven by changes in playing surfaces. These advancements aim to optimize players' performance at the professional level and, like clothing, contribute to the financial dynamics of the sport. Therefore, the present paper aims to illustrate how the evolution of these essential elements of tennis equipment have led to the improvement of the game of tennis, and how the preservation of traditions over time has helped in the rise of the marketing element in tennis.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MODERN DESIGN PRINCIPLES AND EMOTIONAL COMMUNICATION

Aim: The aim of the study is to examine the effects of modern design principles on emotional communication and to understand the relationship between these two fields. Design is an important way for people to interact with products and their environment, and integrating emotional effects into design enhances the user experience. Scope: The research will be conducted in different design fields (graphic design, industrial design, interior design, etc.), and the effects of design on emotional communication will be examined. By including the perspectives of designers and users, the emotional effects of modern design principles are comprehensively evaluated. Methodology: Methodologies such as literature review, observation, and questionnaires were used to conduct the study. Different design examples were examined, designers and users were interviewed, and the effects of design on emotional communication were evaluated. Results: The results show that modern design principles positively impact emotional communication. Well-designed products and environments can cause positive emotional responses in users, increasing the preference for the product or environment. It was also observed that colors, forms, and material choices are important in determining emotional effects. Conclusion: The study concluded that modern design principles impact emotional communication. Considering emotional effects and aesthetic and functional design values enriches the user experience. Therefore, the most important conclusion is that design professionals and industrial designers should focus on integrating emotional communication into design processes.

New monitoring interface for the AMS experiment

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is constantly exposed to harsh condition on the ISS. As such, there is a need to constantly monitor and perform adjustments to ensure the AMS operates safely and efficiently. With the addition of the Upgraded Tracker Thermal Pump System, the legacy monitoring interface was no longer suitable for use. This paper describes the new AMS Monitoring Interface (AMI). The AMI is built with state-of-the-art time series database and analytics software. It uses a custom feeder program to process AMS Raw Data as time series data points, feeds them into InfluxDB databases, and uses Grafana as a visualization tool. It follows modern design principles, allowing client CPUs to handle the processing work, distributed creation of AMI dashboards, and up-to-date security protocols. In addition, it offers a more simple way of modifying the AMI and allows the use of APIs to automate backup and synchronization. The new AMI has been in use since January 2020 and was a crucial component in remote shift taking during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Considerations on Present Production Science Theory and Didactics: The Evident Lack of a Rational Manufacturing Theory

Today’s universities’ manufacturing courses on production system design and analysis of performance dynamics are heuristics than rational-based, far away from a physics or mathematics theorem constructed science. This is also due to increasing computational power, which allowed the proliferation of simulation-based modeling for complex manufacturing systems to analyze their behavior and optimize their performance. Indeed, manufacturing theory remained stuck to generic practice-based production concepts. The lack of a well-structured scientific production specific theory is increasingly problematic. Engineering students lacking the foundation of a solid theory will base manufacturing systems design rather on believing that the optimization software will solve the scheduling issue instead of comparing alternative modern design principles to conceive high performance manufacturing systems. This attitude is far away from a scientific rational approach to design demand characteristic and product appropriate manufacturing systems by knowing “the theory”. A scientifically formulated manufacturing theory should cover two aspects: Firstly, a proper Cartesian-based understanding and law-based modeling of manufacturing systems to describe rationally their behavior; and secondly, a library with a comprehensive set of elementary production systems’ design principles. The design principles define the functioning of the manufacturing system and the theory models the resulting dynamics of the manufacturing system. This paper exemplarily shows the increased didactic and professional benefit of such an appropriate, solid, theorem and law based manufacturing science. In addition, it also discusses the impact of presently applied manufacturing simulation in today’s context of emerging Industry 4.0 type cyber-physical production systems (CPPS).

Javanese House Interior Study: A Philosophical and Cosmological Extraction of Java’s Heritage, as Design Principles Application in Local Content Context

Omah has interior arrangement system and regulation according to the life of Javanese people hereditarily. In its process of building and interior arranging, Javanese people hold on to the philosophical and cosmological concept, which was illogic for modern design study to be applied in the aesthetic study. This study aimed to examine the extent of the correlation between consideration of philosophical and cosmological Java community with modern design principles in making Omah. It was through observation on concept application to the realization in Omah form and also through literature analysis of both these principles. This research used the qualitative method in the form of observation and literature study. This research would observe and analyze the relationship between philosophical and cosmological extraction of Javanese interior with design principle through the study from another journal. It finds that a design that facilitates activities and way of life of Javanese people applies design principles and a modern study that becomes visual beauty guidance.

The Main Design Principles of Hybrid Spaces in Terms of the Urban Planning Regeneration

Urban planning regeneration is a viable mechanism contributing to the urban development during complex reconstruction of the existing city space-planning structure. The dynamics of changing of urban planning theories and practices are characterized by an integral approach to city development through contradictory processes: intensification of globalization processes on the one hand; searching for identity on the other hand. Formation of hybrid spaces in urban fabric of modern cities is relevant and has significant socio-economic importance to the process of urban planning regeneration. In the context of permeability theory hybridity is determined as multi-layer, multi-functional feature of urban space, where there is no clear separation between public and private; buildings and facilities forming the structure are combined by multilevel public space where its virtual perception is also vey the important as well as its information capacity and its transformation ability. Hybrid spaces are multifunctional architectural and landscape entities, designed by applying the landscape urbanism approach and having the spatial connectivity with adjacent areas. The hybrid spaces are very importantt for the city economy, as they are development drivers to spatial, social and public changes. This research is aimed at defining modern design principles of hybrid spaces in terms of urban planning regeneration. The paper focuses on the principles of hybrid urban spaces design in the context of landscape urbanism such as the integration of dwelling areas and public spaces through the green infrastructure.

Adaptive glass panels using shape-memory alloys

Due to the growing application of laminated glass panels in building facades and roofs, tending towards the minimization of frameworks, substructures and supports, technological solutions based on the use of glass panels with increasingly wide dimensions and modern design principles are becoming more frequent. The growing use of structural glass applications is leading to “lighter” and “smarter” optimized design solutions. The design of such applications greatly depends on the material mechanical properties of their structural elements and on their sensitivity to ambient and loading conditions. This is the specific case of laminated glass, where a temperature and time loading sensitive interlayer is generally used to bond together two (or more) glass panes with brittle behavior and rather limited tensile resistance. In this research paper, a novel adaptive glass panel concept is developed by using shape-memory alloy (SMA) cables, and assessed by means of Finite-element numerical studies and experimental validation. Based on the case study of an existing laminated glass roof panel, several geometrical configurations of practical interest are investigated. A key role in the proposed approach is the application of external pre-stressing based on the Joule heating of the SMA bracing system. The structural efficiency of the cable system is emphasized by taking into account the effects of ordinary wind pressures and temperature variations. Due to the innovative adaptive control system, as shown, the structural performance of traditional laminated glass panels can be enhanced, e.g. optimized in terms of maximum displacements and stresses in the glass, as well as in the overall dimensions and thicknesses of the glass panes.

The Affective Slider: A Digital Self-Assessment Scale for the Measurement of Human Emotions.

Self-assessment methods are broadly employed in emotion research for the collection of subjective affective ratings. The Self-Assessment Manikin (SAM), a pictorial scale developed in the eighties for the measurement of pleasure, arousal, and dominance, is still among the most popular self-reporting tools, despite having been conceived upon design principles which are today obsolete. By leveraging on state-of-the-art user interfaces and metacommunicative pictorial representations, we developed the Affective Slider (AS), a digital self-reporting tool composed of two slider controls for the quick assessment of pleasure and arousal. To empirically validate the AS, we conducted a systematic comparison between AS and SAM in a task involving the emotional assessment of a series of images taken from the International Affective Picture System (IAPS), a database composed of pictures representing a wide range of semantic categories often used as a benchmark in psychological studies. Our results show that the AS is equivalent to SAM in the self-assessment of pleasure and arousal, with two added advantages: the AS does not require written instructions and it can be easily reproduced in latest-generation digital devices, including smartphones and tablets. Moreover, we compared new and normative IAPS ratings and found a general drop in reported arousal of pictorial stimuli. Not only do our results demonstrate that legacy scales for the self-report of affect can be replaced with new measurement tools developed in accordance to modern design principles, but also that standardized sets of stimuli which are widely adopted in research on human emotion are not as effective as they were in the past due to a general desensitization towards highly arousing content.

More than a mirage: A large‐scale assessment centre with more dimension variance than exercise variance

Assessment centres (ACs) are widely recognized to be among the best tools for assessing and developing management talent (Assessment Centres and Global Talent Management, 2011, Gower: London). Yet, the current consensus about the construct validity of ACs is that exercises rather than dimensions explain the majority of variance in ratings. Because much of the data on which these conclusions are based are now old, it is worthwhile to periodically re‐examine this issue to see whether well‐implemented designs produce better measurements of dimensions. We present results from 1,205 executive‐level leaders from Fortune 500 firms across Europe and North America, who participated in developmental ACs that use modern design principles where assessors were formally examined to ensure they had a common frame or reference. Our results showed that while dimensions and exercises mutually determined ratings, more variation was owing to dimensions.Practitioner Points Modern assessment centre designs can yield dimension scores that reflect dimensions more than exercises; The psychometric characteristics of operational ACs should be regularly monitored as the characteristics of any single AC may differ widely from meta‐analytic averages.

Integration of educational and scientific–technological areas during the process of education of aerospace engineers

National priorities, defined by modern state of high-tech industries, demand adequate problem solving of training professionals possessing required modern qualifications. Modern tendencies of the development of aerospace technologies, harsh competition in the market of space services and expansion of international cooperation for implementation of space projects, demand sharp increase of the scientific/technical level and competitiveness of the developed projects. Especially important is to be able to solve technological problems, which in turn define the cost and quality attributes of the designed item, as well as the ability to utilize the most modern design principles. Training of highly efficient, creative professionals who are capable of generating and implementing new ideas is a very important factor driving not only the development of national economy and industry, but also enriching the human capital of the country. Moscow State Technical University named after N.E. Bauman developed and successfully implemented the project-oriented technology of professional training for aerospace industry. It assumes a multitude of forms, methodologies and organizational events, which allow preparing the specialists – on the basis of integration of scientific/technological and educational environment – who are adapted to the conditions of the intellectual market. The Youth Space Center of the University is the base where graduate and post-graduate students attend unique lectures as a part of the facultative course “Applied Cosmonautics”, participate in annual International Youth Science School “Space Development: Theory and Practice” and develop innovative technical projects aimed at creation of real-life space hardware. Microsatellite technologies are being developed in Bauman University through various projects, which are implemented in a coordinated manner by way of accomplishing the following steps: – development of small-size satellites by universities, using them as test-beds for quick and affordable trial-and-test of new technologies and design solutions in aerospace followed by implementation of selected efficiencies in the industry; – development and improvement of ground control infrastructure based in the university, which includes the Mission Control Center and the Earth Remote Sensing Center; – development of cooperative partnerships with international partners in the field of microsatellite technologies with the goal of sharing experience, uniting efforts in preparing and running scientific and educational experiments and creating next-generation spacecraft by multi-national student groups. Such approaches allow creating seamless environment that unites educational, scientific and innovative processes. This allows students to develop high professionalism, modern engineering thinking and stable engineering skills at an early stage of education at the university.

The Application of Design Principles to Innovate Clinical Care Delivery

Clinical research centers that support hypothesis-driven investigation have long been a feature of academic medical centers but facilities in which clinical care delivery can be systematically assessed and evaluated have heretofore been nonexistent. The Institute of Medicine report "Crossing the Quality Chasm" identified six core attributes of an ideal care delivery system that in turn relied heavily on system redesign. Although manufacturing and service industries have leveraged modern design principles in new product development, healthcare has lagged behind. In this article, we describe a methodology utilized by our facility to study the clinical care delivery system that incorporates modern design principles.

Louis Hippolyte Lebas (1782-1867) et l'histoire de l'art

"Louis Hippolyte Lebas (1782-1867) and art history", by Françoise Largier The career of Louis Hippolyte Lebas followed a trajectory that began and ended at the École des Beaux-Arts : he studied under Vaudoyer and Percier, travelled to Italy, was awarded commissions by the administration, became a member of the Institut de France and finally succeeded Huyot as professor at the École des Beaux-Arts. His classical and rationalist inclinations are manifest in his church of Notre-Dame-de-Lorette and the prison of La Petite-Roquette, both of which reveal his taste for antiquity and his acceptance of modern design principles. As a historian of architecture, his principal work is his series of lectures delivered at the École des Beaux-Arts between 1840 and 1863. Lebas' objective was to teach the architecture of all periods and places based on the methods developed by Winckelmann and Quatremère de Quincy. Three themes representative of his approach to history are thoroughly studied here : (1) the search for physical and moral causes, (2) the search for origins, and (3) the evolution of the vault.
