  • 1 Delphi technique

    Gen Mgt
    a qualitative forecasting method in which a panel of experts respond individually to a questionnaire or series of questionnaires, before reaching a consensus. The Delphi technique requires individual submission of, and response to, the questionnaire on the topic under investigation, in order to avoid the effect of a dominant personality influencing a group discussion. A summary of the written replies is then distributed so that responses can be revised in the light of the views expressed. This cycle is repeated until the coordinator of the group is satisfied that the best possible consensus has been reached. The Delphi technique was developed at the Rand Corporation during the late 1940s and 1950s and owes its name to the Greek oracle at Delphi, which was believed to make predictions about the future.

  • 16 Rawcliffe, Gordon Hindle

    SUBJECT AREA: Electricity
    [br]
    b. 2 June 1910 Sheffield, England
    d. 3 September 1979 Bristol, England
    [br]
    English scientist and inventor of the multi-speed induction motor using the pole amplitude modulation principle.
    [br]
    After graduating from Keble College, Oxford, Rawcliffe joined the Metropolitan Vickers Electrical Company in 1932 as a college apprentice, and later became a design engineer. This was followed by a period as a lecturer at Liverpool University, where he was able to extend his knowledge of the principles underlying the design and operation of electrical machines. In 1941 he became Head of the Electrical Engineering Department at the Robert Gordon Technical College, Aberdeen, and Lecturer in charge of Electrical Engineering at Aberdeen University. In 1944 Rawcliffe was appointed to the Chair of Electrical Engineering at the University of Bristol, where he remained until his retirement in 1975. The reputation of his department was enhanced by the colleagues he recruited.
    After 1954 he began research into polyphase windings, the basis of alternating-current machinery, and published papers concerned with the dual problems of frequency changing and pole changing. The result of this research was the discovery in 1957 of a technique for making squirrel-cage induction motors run at more than one speed. By reversing current in one part of the winding, the pole distribution and number were changed, and with it the speed of rotation.
    Rawcliffe's name became synonymous with pole amplitude modulation, or PAM, the name given to this technique. Described by Rawcliffe as a new philosophy of windings, the technique led to a series of research papers, patents and licensing agreements in addition to consultancies to advise on application problems. Commercial exploitation of the new idea throughout Western Europe, the United Kingdom and the United States followed. In total he contributed twentyfive papers to the Proceedings of the Institution of Electrical Engineers and some sixty British patent applications were filed.

       very hot, green Japanese horseradish.
       Green relative of horseradish that is primarily used with sushi and sashimi.
       ♦ Japanese plant with green roots tasting like strong horseradish and used in cooking in the form of green paste. Many people call it "Japanese mustard", although it is not related to the mustard plant.
       ♦ a hot, spicy condiment made from the roots of Japanese horseradish, chartreuse in color
       ♦ Called Japanese horseradish, this is a root that is dried and ground to a fine powder. This powder is then reconstituted and used for dipping sauce with soy sauce when eating sushi and sashimi. Water Bath -The French call this cooking technique Bain Marie. It consists of placing a container of food in a large, shallow pan of warm water, which surrounds the food with consistent gentle heat. The food may be cooked in this manner either in an oven or on top of a range. This technique is designed to cook delicate dishes such as custards, sauces and savory mousses without breaking or curdling them. It can also be used to keep foods warm. The principle is that the water in the water bath must come to the level of the product being cooked within the container.
       ♦ Japanese horseradish style flavoring, comes in tubes or powder. maya’s bachan (grandma) has a wasabi farm on the side of a mountain and it’s very cool
