title: Re-creating legal space for the first law of Aotearoa-New Zealand

authors: Joseph, Robert

subjects: law

abstract: Some of the historic and contemporary statutory and case law examples of a hybrid Maori-British common law legal system in Aotearoa-New Zealand are discussed. The importance and role performed by the First Law, the tikanga Maori customary law is highlighted.

title: The Truth About Stories: A Native Narrative By Thomas King

authors: Douglas, Zanna

abstract: The truth about stories is that that’s all we are.” Koinei ngā kupu e tika ana hei whakamana i te āhua o te pukapuka nei nā Thomas King i tuhi. Ko te pakiwaitara tētehi āhuatanga e pupuri nei e te iwi taketake, he huarahi e mārama ai tātou ki te huringa o te ao. He taonga hoki ēnei kua take mai nō mua rā anō, kia kore e warewaretia wā tātou hītori, kia pupuri tonu hoki ki ngā kōrero ō mua, ngā kōrero e puawai ai te tuakiri o te tangata. Mō King, ka hanga te pakiwaitara i te tangata, nā koianei te pūtakenga mai o tāna aronga i roto i te pukapuka nei. Ko tāna he whakatakoto mai i ngā pakiwaitara kua rangona e ia i roto i ōna tau, me kī ko ngā hītori nō tōna iwi. Ko tētehi o ngā āhuatanga matua ka tū mai i roto i te tuhituhinga nei ko tāna kōrero mō ngā āhuatanga kua pā ki a ia i roto i tōna oranga. He huarahi pai tēnei hei whakamahana atu i te kaituhi ki te kaipānui, mā reira e āhei ana te kaipānui ki te whakawhanaunga atu ki te ngako o ngā kōrero o roto i te pukapuka.

title: Ensuring cost-effective heat exchanger network design for non-continuous processes

authors: Morrison, Andrew S.

subjects: Capital costs

abstract: The variation in stream conditions over time inevitably adds significant complexity to the task of integrating non-continuous processes. The Time Averaging Method (TAM), where stream conditions are simply averaged across the entire time cycle, leads to unrealistic energy targets for direct heat recovery and consequently to Heat Exchanger Network (HEN) designs that are in fact suboptimal. This realisation led to the development of the Time Slice Method (TSM) that instead considers each time interval separately, and can be used to reach accurate targets and to design the appropriate HEN to maximise heat recovery. However, in practise the HENs often require excessive exchanger surface area, which renders them unfeasible when capital costs are taken in to account. An extension of the TSM that reduces the required overall exchanger surface area and systematically distributes it across the stream matches is proposed. The methodology is summarised with the help of a simple case study and further improvement opportunities are discussed
