Research features of voltage static load characteristics in the electric system of Russia
At the present time using the standard (generalized) voltage static load characteristics which can differ from actual considerably is provided in software packages for calculations of the steady-state mode and steady-state stability (in the absence of exact data). Absence of the metering or the incorrect metering of the actual voltage static load characteristic, and also using the standard (generalized) static load characteristics could lead to considerable errors and the incorrect final results while making calculations. The definition experience of actual voltage static load characteristics in different ways made by authors is given in this paper: making tests in situ in electric power systems by allocation of energy area load or separately taken electric power substation to the isolated electric supply, load allocation of the power supply from the power plant generator; registration data using of crash conditions of the electric power system. Such test of actual voltage static load characteristics definition in electric system of Russia it is reduced by authors in making tests in situ technique. Error estimation which can appear in calculations of steady-state modes with the absence of the voltage actual load characteristics is executed.
Assessment of Organization Development Speed Based on the Analysis of Standards Efficiency
Standardization has proven to be an efficient regulation mechanism as well as means for storage of best experience. For instance, lean production methods developed in Japan emphasize the importance of decision standardization. In our paper we describe the method for assisting company competitiveness based on evaluation of standardization quality of processes, technologies implemented at a company and products being manufactured. Our method regards standardization as an instrument for analysis of company efficiency, rather than as a process. Indeed, production of new goods of high demand involves revision of design of these goods and technologies for their production. Therefore, the implementation dynamics of new rules, procedures and norms is increasing. Analysis of this dynamics can give us data about company development and development of some particular processes. Comparing development speed of two competing companies can help us to forecast their state of business. To illustrate the described method we give some real data of one of industrial company which produces automobile components as well as data of one of international airports in Russia.
As práticas profissionais no campo público de atenção à saúde bucal: o caso de dois municípios da Bahia
This paper examines the working facilities and processes of dentists in the primary healthcare systems of two towns in Bahia State, Brazil, striving to analyze the extent to which factors related to dental care, training, placement and professional profiles influence their practices. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine dentists in both towns, with work process organization patterns in Municipality C being closer to the structuring principles of Brazil's National Health System than in Municipality E. This seems to be related to management characteristics, with networking links among individual, collective, and preventive clinical activities and planning noted in Municipality C. Despite these differences, the practitioners presented similarities in terms of dual militancy and perceptions of the public and private healthcare fields. The hegemony of the private sector seems to be influencing the professional practices of dentists in the public health system.
