TL;DR: The European Socio-economic Classification (ESeC) as mentioned in this paper is a categorical social class schema based on the concept of employment relations, which was proposed by the European Statistical Office as part of its Statistical Harmonization Programme.
Abstract: As a result of an initiative by the European Statistical Office as part of its Statistical Harmonisation Programme, a prototype of a common European Socio-economic Classification (ESeC) has been created. ESeC is a categorical social class schema based on the concept of employment relations. The paper explains the conceptual basis of ESeC, describes the categories of the classification and how they may be collapsed for analytic purposes, as well as indicating how it is operationalised. The operational variants of ESeC, depending on the data available for its construction, are also discussed. In the second part of the paper some key findings of comparative analyses which use ESeC to examine issues relating to unemployment, education, poverty, deprivation and health across the EU are summarised. These analyses demonstrate the potential of ESeC as a major advance for an improved understanding of the patterns of European social inequalities. As such, this new classification should be of vital importan...

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the flow-induced surface instabilities of Kramer-type compliant surfaces by a variety of theoretical approaches and derived the critical velocity, wavenumber and stability boundaries.
Abstract: The flow-induced surface instabilities of Kramer-type compliant surfaces are investigated by a variety of theoretical approaches. This class of instability includes all those modes of instability for which the mechanism of generation involves essentially inviscid processes. The results should be applicable to all compliant surfaces that could be modelled theoretically by a thin elastic plate, with or without applied longitudinal tension, supported on a springy elastic foundation. with or without a viscous fluid substrate; material damping is also taken into account through the viscoelastic properties of the solid constituents of the coatings.The simple case of a potential main flow is studied first. The eigenmodes for this case are subjected to an energy analysis following the methods of Landahl (1962). Instabilities that grow both in space and time are then considered, and absolute and convective instabilities identified and analysed.The effects of irreversible processes on the flow-induced surface instabilities are investigated. The shear flow in the boundary layer gives rise to a fluctuating pressure component which is out of phase with the surface motion. This leads to an irreversible transfer of energy from the main stream to the compliant surface. This mechanism is studied in detail and is shown to be responsible for travelling-wave flutter. Simple results are obtained for the critical velocity, wavenumber and stability boundaries. These last are shown to be in good agreement with the results obtained by the numerical integration of the Orr–Sommerfeld equation. An analysis of the effects of a viscous fluid substrate and of material damping is then carried out. The simpler inviscid theory is shown to predict values of the maximum growth rate which are, again, in good agreement with the results obtained by the numerical integration of the Orr–Sommerfeld equation provided that the instability is fairly weak.Compliant surfaces of finite length are analysed in the limit as wave-length tends to zero. In this way the static-divergence instability is predicted. Simple formulae for critical velocity and wavenumber are derived. These are in exact agreement with the results of the simpler infinite-length theory. But, whereas a substantial level of damping is required for the instability on a surface of infinite length, static divergence grows fastest in the absence of damping on a surface of finite length.

TL;DR: The Partition Algebra Pn(Q) as mentioned in this paper is a generalisation of the Temperley-Lieb algebra for Q-state n-site Potts models, underpinning their transfer matrix formulation on arbitrary transverse lattices.
Abstract: We give the definition of the Partition Algebra Pn(Q). This is a new generalisation of the Temperley–Lieb algebra for Q-state n-site Potts models, underpinning their transfer matrix formulation on arbitrary transverse lattices. In Pn(Q) subalgebras appropriate for building the transfer matrices for all transverse lattice shapes (e.g. cubic) occur. For the Partition algebra manifests either a semi-simple generic structure or is one of a discrete set of exceptional cases. We determine the Q-generic and Q-independent structure and representation theory. In all cases (except Q = 0) simple modules are indexed by the integers j ≤ n and by the partitions λ ˫ j. Physically they may be associated, at least for sufficiently small j, to 2j 'spin' correlation functions. We exhibit a subalgebra isomorphic to the Brauer algebra.
