abstract: The statue of Leopold I, Prince of Anhalt-Dessau is a bronze sculpture installed at Wilhelmplatz in Berlin, Germany. At the end of the Seven Years' War in 1763 a plan was formulated to erect marble statues of Prussian generals who died in the war. Initially four were installed, between 1769 and 1786. Between 1794 and 1828 two statues, including Leopold I by Johann Gottfried Schadow, which had initially been intended to be installed elsewhere in Berlin were relocated there. Because of the vulnerability of the marble statues, the sculptor Christian Daniel Rauch suggested recasting them in Bronze. The marble originals were moved to the Bode Museum, and the new statues were cast by August Kiß. The statues survived World War II, but were not on public view for many years. Finally the statues or Leopold and Hans Joachim von Zieten were re-erected between 2003 and 2005 on a subway island on the transverse axis of the former Wilhelmplatz.

title: West London Air Terminal

abstract: The West London Air Terminal was a check-in facility for British European Airways flights from Heathrow Airport. It was located on Cromwell Road in Kensington, London, and was in operation from 6 October 1957 to 1 January 1974. After passengers checked in their baggage and received their boarding passes, they would travel to Heathrow Airport by coach. One of the drawbacks of using the terminal for checking in was that road traffic could delay the coaches and ultimately delay the departure of the flight.

# West London Air Terminal

The **West London Air Terminal** was a check-in facility for British European Airways flights from Heathrow Airport. It was located on Cromwell Road in Kensington, London, and was in operation from 6 October 1957 to 1 January 1974. After passengers checked in their baggage and received their boarding passes, they would travel to Heathrow Airport by coach. One of the drawbacks of using the terminal for checking in was that road traffic could delay the coaches and ultimately delay the departure of the flight.

## History

Heathrow Airport started to gradually replace Croydon Airport as London's main airport from 1946 onwards. Croydon Airport used a location near London Victoria station as its airport terminal but this location was unsuitable for Heathrow Airport, so a committee consisting of the airlines, British Railways and London Transport decided to build a new terminal in West London. In the view of the committee's report of 1954, the best site for the terminal was the Cromwell Curve, a disused section of railway line owned by London Transport, that provided easy access to Heathrow Airport by road. The terminal was designed to replace the Waterloo Air Terminal. British European Airways (BEA) wanted the terminal ready by September 1957, so a temporary building was erected by Costain Group. The terminal was built in four-and-a-half months, and opened on 6 October 1957.

In the 1960s, a permanent building was built by Holland, Hannen & Cubitts. The architect of this building was Sir John Burnet, Tait and Partners. The new £5 million air terminal was opened by Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, on 6 November 1963. The six floors above the terminal's concourse were occupied by BEA's passenger-handling staff, reservations unit and accountants.

On 26 February 1962, BEA introduced their electronic reservations unit at the terminal. On 17 April 1965, BEA's automatic seat reservation system came into operation. In November 1969, BEA's computerised check-in system came into use.

On 11 May 1972, BEA announced the closure of the check-in facilities at the terminal. The check-in facilities closed on 1 January 1974. However, bus services running between the terminal and Heathrow Airport operated until March 1979.

In 1983, a Sainsbury's superstore opened in the western half of the building. The building was bought by Regalian and three Singapore-based partners in August 1997, and converted to Point West apartments above the Sainsbury's store.

## Incidents

* On 7 December 1963, a fire affected the fifth, sixth and seventh floors of the terminal.
* On 28 September 1973, eight people were injured when a bomb exploded in the terminal.

title: The Wheel of Fortune (play)

abstract:
The Wheel of Fortune: A Comedy is a comedy in five acts written by playwright Richard Cumberland and first presented at the Drury Lane Theatre in London on 28 February 1795, with a prologue and an epilogue. The original cast included John Philip Kemble as Penruddock, Robert Palmer as David Daw, Thomas King as Tempest, George Bland as Jenkins, John Whitfield as Woodville, John Palmer as Sydenham, Charles Kemble as Henry Woodville, Richard Suett as Weazel, Francis Godolphin Waldron as Woodville's Servant, Walter Maddocks as Penruddock's Servant, John Phillimore as Attendant, Jane Powell as Mrs. Woodville, Elizabeth Farren as Emily Tempest and Charlotte Tidswell as Maid. John Philip Kemble was praised for his portrayal of the misanthropic, embittered Roderick Penruddock, who cannot forget but learns to forgive. The famous playwright August von Kotzebue claimed that the misanthropic character was stolen from his Menschenhass und Reue. Elizabeth Inchbald was in some measure of agreement with Kotzebue, but Cumberland objected. Weazel the lawyer was one of Richard Suett's best roles. The play is mentioned in Jane Austen's 1814 novel Mansfield Park:
All the best plays were run over in vain. Neither Hamlet, nor Macbeth, nor Othello, nor Douglas, nor the Gamester, presented any thing that could satisfy even the tragedians; and the Rivals, the School for Scandal, Wheel of Fortune, Heir at Law, and a long et cætera, were successively dismissed with yet warmer objections. In December 1796 Ann Brunton Merry played the role of Emily Tempest at the Chestnut Street Theatre in Philadelphia.

John Philip Kemble was praised for his portrayal of the misanthropic, embittered Roderick Penruddock, who cannot forget but learns to forgive. The famous playwright August von Kotzebue claimed that the misanthropic character was stolen from his *Menschenhass und Reue*. Elizabeth Inchbald was in some measure of agreement with Kotzebue, but Cumberland objected. Weazel the lawyer was one of Richard Suett's best roles.

The play is mentioned in Jane Austen's 1814 novel *Mansfield Park*:

> All the best plays were run over in vain. Neither *Hamlet*, nor *Macbeth*, nor *Othello*, nor *Douglas*, nor the *Gamester*, presented any thing that could satisfy even the tragedians; and the *Rivals*, the *School for Scandal*, *Wheel of Fortune*, *Heir at Law*, and a long *et cætera*, were successively dismissed with yet warmer objections.

In December 1796 Ann Brunton Merry played the role of Emily Tempest at the Chestnut Street Theatre in Philadelphia.

## Plot summary

Roderick Penruddock's rural cottage is the location for the first act. The scenes of other four acts are in London. The comic lawyer Timothy Weazel finds Roderick Penruddock, who has been living for twenty years in isolated misanthropy, embittered against Arabella and his enemy Woodville. Weazel informs Penruddock that he is the heir of the deceased Sir George Penruddock, a cousin of Roderick. This unexpected inheritance and Woodville's ruin at the gaming tables create a possibility. Roderick plots his revenge and searches for his enemy Woodville in London, where he encounters Henry Woodville. Arabella and his enemy Woodville's friend Sydenham make appeals to Penruddock. The appeals and his own pangs of conscience cause Penruddock to repent, turn to forgiveness, abandon his plans for revenge, and bestow a fortune upon Henry Woodville and Emily.

## Release

*The Times of India* gave the film two-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that "The road movie about an unethical doctor keeps you yearning for a bit of sensible and thrilling story to kick in. Though there are a handful of twists and turns, sadly, none are entertaining enough". *The Hindu* wrote that "Right from the first frame, a sense of foreboding, of something about to happen, is maintained, only to be deceived time and again when things fizzle out".

# Mary Joy Langdon

Sister **Mary-Joy Langdon** BEM (born 1951) is a British nun who was the first woman to be an operational firefighter in Britain on 21 August 1976. She started a pony riding centre to supply therapy and she was an Olympic flag carrier in 2012.

## Life and career

Langdon was born in 1951 in Battle, East Sussex. She attended Charters Towers School, Bexhill, East Sussex.

In the summer of 1976 there was a major drought in Britain and the fire brigades needed extra people. Langdon volunteered and joined the Battle fire station, close to her family farm as part of the East Sussex Fire Brigade, part-time but being on call for 24 hours. She had passed all the normal tests including carrying an 11 stone (150 lb; 70 kg) man for 100 yards. At the age of 25, she was the UK's first ever female firefighter to be formally admitted to a brigade. She joined on 21 August 1976, leaving in 1983. In 1978, women firefighters were accepted everywhere in the UK.

In 1984, Sister Mary-Joy joined the Roman Catholic congregation Sisters of the Infant Jesus.

## Wormwood Scrubs Pony Centre

Sister Mary-Joy founded the Wormwood Scrubs Pony Centre, a charity, in 1989. The Centre is an inner city community riding school for children and young people, many of whom have learning difficulties and physical disabilities. The children, parents and local people are encouraged to actively get involved by offering help with fund raising or joining the volunteering programmes. In 1994, the television programme Challenge Anneka built a training ground for the charity. The actor Martin Clunes and the painter Lucian Freud have been supporters. When Freud first visited, Langdon helpfully gave him a book on how to paint horses.

In 2012, she was chosen to be one of the people carrying the Olympic torch on its journey to the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.

In September 2023, Sister Mary Joy Langdon announced that she will step back from her role as Chief Executive of the Wormwood Scrubs Pony Centre in 2024 after 35 years in the position.

## Results

Mapai retained its plurality in the Knesset, although its share of the vote dropped by 5.1 and its share of seats dropped from 47 (at the end of the Second Knesset) to 40. Meanwhile, Herut overtook the General Zionists, Mapam, and Hapoel HaMizrachi to become the second-largest party, with its share of seats nearly doubling (from 8 in the Second Knesset to 15 in the Third).

The Third Knesset is notable for being the only Knesset thus far in which none of the represented parties merged or split (although two parties did change their names) and no MKs switched parties, making it the most stable Knesset in Israel's history.

## Aftermath

Unlike the second Knesset, the third Knesset was one of the most stable in Israel's history. There were only two governments, and it was the only Knesset to date during which none of the parties split or merged. As with the first and second Knesset, the speaker was Yosef Sprinzak until his death on 28 January 1959. He was replaced by Ahdut HaAvoda's Nahum Nir.

### Seventh government

The third Knesset started with David Ben-Gurion forming the seventh government of Israel (the previous two Knessets had six governments; two in the first and four in the second) on 3 November 1955. His Mapai party formed a coalition with the National Religious Front (which later changed its name to the National Religious Party), Mapam, the Progressive Party, Ahdut HaAvoda, and the three Israeli Arab parties, the Democratic List for Israeli Arabs, Progress and Work, Agriculture and Development. The government had 16 ministers. It collapsed when Ben-Gurion resigned on 31 December 1957 over the leaking of information from ministerial meetings.

### Eighth government

Ben-Gurion formed the eighth government a week later on 7 January 1958 with the same coalition partners. The number of ministers remained the same. The eighth government collapsed when Ben-Gurion resigned again on 5 July 1959 after Labour Unity and Mapam had voted against the government on the issue of selling arms to West Germany and refused to leave the coalition. Elections for the fourth Knesset were called for 3 November 1959.

title: Mambalgins

abstract: Mambalgins are peptides found in the venom of the black mamba, an elapid snake. Mambalgins are members of the three-finger toxin (3FTx) protein family and have the characteristic three-finger protein fold. First reported by French researchers in 2012, mambalgins are unusual members of the 3FTx family in that they have the in vivo effect of causing analgesia without apparent toxicity. Their mechanism of action is potent inhibition of acid-sensing ion channels.

**Mambalgins** are peptides found in the venom of the black mamba (*Dendroaspis polylepis polylepis*), an elapid snake. Mambalgins are members of the three-finger toxin (3FTx) protein family and have the characteristic three-finger protein fold. First reported by French researchers in 2012, mambalgins are unusual members of the 3FTx family in that they have the *in vivo* effect of causing analgesia without apparent toxicity. Their mechanism of action is potent inhibition of acid-sensing ion channels.

## Structure

Mambalgins known to date consist of 57 amino acid residues and fold into a characteristic three-finger toxin (3FTx) structure. Two isoforms were originally described, called mambalgin-1 and mambalgin-2, which differ by a single amino acid residue. A third variant which differs by a single residue at another site, has subsequently been reported from venom profiling of the Eastern green mamba (*Dendroaspis augusticeps*).

The X-ray structure of mambalgin-1 has been solved and consists of a three-finger protein fold with the typical three beta sheet-containing "finger" loops emanating from a central core stabilized by disulphide bonds; however, the structure differs from most 3FTx proteins in having an elongated second loop and shortened first and third loops. Mambalgins have relatively low sequence similarity to other 3FTx proteins and are most closely related to the 3FTx subclass known as the non-conventional or "weak" toxins.

## Function

Mambalgins are potent inhibitors of acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs), which are multimeric membrane proteins that respond to low pH and whose activation is thought to be involved in perception of pain. Mambalgins have been shown to interact specifically with ASIC subtypes present in the central nervous system (homomeric ASIC1a and heteromeric ASIC1a/ASIC2a or ASIC1a/ASIC2b), as well as those found in sensory neurons (ASIC1b and ASIC1a/ASIC1b). They have no effect on other ASICs or on other types of ion channel proteins. These interactions are likely mediated in part by mambalgins' positive electrostatic potential facilitating binding to negatively charged ASICs. Mambalgins are believed to trap ASICs in a closed conformation.

In tests performed on laboratory mice, mambalgins have the *in vivo* effect of analgesia without the toxic effects seen with most 3FTx proteins, and in particular, without the clinical manifestations associated with inhibition of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, the targets of most 3FTx proteins including mambalgins' closest relatives. Furthermore, the analgesic effects of mambalgins does not confer side effects such as respiratory depression and drug tolerance, both associated with opioid analgesics.

In addition to mambalgins, at least three other peptides from three different taxa have been identified as interacting with ASICs: PcTx1, from the South American tarantula *Psalmopoeus cambridgei*; APETx2, from the sea anemone *Anthopleura elegantissima*; and MitTx, a heterodimer from the snake *Micrurus tener tener*. PcTx1 and APETx2, like mambalgins, are ASIC inhibitors, albeit with different subtype specificities; MitTx is an activator associated with causing pain *in vivo*. The four proteins have no detectable sequence similarity. The natural function of ASIC-inhibiting analgesic peptides is unclear, as all are produced by predator animals yet have no known toxic effects on the corresponding prey.

## Applications

In laboratory experiments using laboratory mice, mambalgins appear to exert clinically significant analgesic effects without the side effects typically associated with opioid analgesics. Although this property has attracted interest as a basis for development of pharmaceutical drugs, mambalgins or their derivatives are not in clinical use.

# West Margin Press

**West Margin Press** is a book publishing company.

Using two additional imprints — **Graphic Arts Books** and **Alaska Northwest Books** — West Margin publishes books that focused on lifestyle and place.

## History

Graphic Arts Center Publishing started in 1967 as a division of Graphic Arts Center, Inc., Oregon's largest printer. The publishing house was one of the pioneers in publishing large-format, full-color print books. These became known as "coffee table books." Their first book in this format was the popular *Oregon*, a book of photographs by Ray Atkeson, which became a series that includes *Oregon 2* and *Oregon III*.

In the mid 1980s, Graphic Arts began to diversify from photographic books into subjects like children's fiction and non-fiction. In 1993, Graphic Arts acquired Alaska Northwest Books, the largest trade book publisher in the Alaskan market.

In 1998, Graphic Arts started its third imprint, WestWinds Press, to launch a series of Western titles and photography books.

Graphic Arts Center was one of the Northwest's largest book publishers, publishing about 40 books annually and selling over 500 titles to the U.S., Canada, United Kingdom, and Europe.

In April 2006, the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. In October 2006, Ingram Content Group invested in Graphic Arts as part of a bankruptcy reorganization plan. In January 2007, Graphic Arts Center Publishing Company emerged from bankruptcy. The company again filed for bankruptcy in order to liquidate in November 2009. Ingram became the owner of Graphic Arts.

In 2012, Graphic Arts acquired Pruett Publishing. In 2014, Graphic Arts acquired Companion Press. In 2019, Graphic Arts was renamed West Margin Press, with Graphic Arts remaining as an imprint and the WestWinds Press replaced by West Margin. Turner Publishing acquired West Margin from Ingram in 2022.

title: 1959–60 Four Hills Tournament

text:
# 1959–60 Four Hills Tournament

The eighth annual Four Hills Tournament in Germany and Austria was influenced by the German flag controversy, which led to the teams of the Warsaw pact zone withdrawing from the tournament. In addition, Finland and Norway decided not to compete due to preparations for the upcoming 1960 Winter Olympics. Finland ultimately sent prospective athletes.

The tournament was instead dominated by the host country and for the first time, the Four Hills were won by a West German ski jumper, Max Bolkart.

## German Flag Controversy

For ten years after its declared independence, the German Democratic Republic continued to use the German tricolour for official use. In October 1959, they finally adapted a distinctive flag, the East German coat of arms in front of the tricolour. The Four Hills tournament starting in December 1959 was one of the first sporting events on West German ground where East German athletes were supposed to compete under the new flag.

However, it was prohibited to display the new East German flag under West German law and the hosts refused to do so in Oberstdorf. The strong East German delegation including defending champion Helmut Recknagel refused to compete under the circumstances and withdrew. Teams of countries that accepted East Germany as a sovereign nation and thus their flag, withdrew in solidarity (Czechoslovakia, Poland and the Soviet Union). Originally, it was announced that they would compete at the two events in Austria.

Austria, however, did not yet have diplomatic relations with the GDR and it was left to the local government to deal with the situation. Innsbruck mayor Alois Lugger decided not to display the East German flag either. Although he offered compromises, such as the use of the Olympic German flag or using no flags at all, the Warsaw pact teams declared their withdrawal on the day of the Innsbruck event and left the day after.

## Participating nations and athletes

Many notable absences include the teams from East Germany, the Soviet Union, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Norway and the top athletes from Finland.

A French team, however, competed at the Four Hills for the first time.

### Innsbruck

Bergiselschanze, Innsbruck
3 January 1960

Thanks to close results so far, the overall ranking was still closely contested after the first two events. In Innsbruck however, Max Bolkart increased his lead to almost twenty points after a third, clearer victory.

Curiously, three out of four Swedish competitors shared 21st place, equal in points (198.5).

Max Bolkart was the third athlete within seven years to win the first three events but fail to achieve the 'Grand Slam' in Bischofshofen. He still became the first West German to win the tournament however, as Alwin Plank almost, but not quite closed the gap in the overall ranking.

The Austrians achieved their first triple victory, a feat that only the Finnish had produced so far (twice in 1954–55).

## Competition Report

Spanish Battleship was a national icon by the time he lined for an attempt to win a third title. He suffered a surprise first round defeat when he was caught before the line by Crostys Bell but he still qualified for the next round by virtue of finishing second. Trainer Tom Lynch had other entries in the competition and two dead heated in the first round, they were Imperial Toast and Dancing Jester. Makra Bibs who had defeated Spanish Battleship in the Tostal Cup earlier in the year was the fastest heat winner in 29.68. Due to there being only 36 greyhounds in the event this year there was a rest before the semi-finals got underway and Lynch gave Spanish Battleship a trial. In the semi-finals Spanish Battleship returned to winning form by beating Mile Bush Champion by three lengths but Makra Bibs failed to make the final. A very fast time of 29.53 from Crostys Bell was good enough to take the second semi-final from Sailaway Sailor and Dancing Jester completed the round after he beat Claremont John in the third heat.

Harold's Cross stadium was overwhelmed by crowds attempting to see Spanish Battleship and they backed him into favourite at 5-4 with Crostys Bell drifting in the market at 7-4. Spanish Battleship was first away from the traps again and stretched to a three length victory from Crostys Bell to cement his place into the record books.

# Ugolino da Gualdo Cattaneo

**Ugolino da Gualdo Cattaneo** (1200 - 1 January 1260) was an Italian Roman Catholic professed religious and friar of the Order of Saint Augustine. Ugolino is best known for founding an Augustinian convent in Gualdo Cattaneo in 1258 where he served as its prior until his death. He practiced a rigorous spiritual life with austerities including frequent bouts of strict silence and fasting.

The confirmation of the late friar's longstanding 'cultus' (or popular devotion) on 12 March 1919 allowed for Pope Benedict XV to approve his beatification; Ugolino is the patron of Gualdo Cattaneo where he lived and served.

## Life

Ugolino da Gualdo Cattaneo was born in 1200 in Gualdo Cattaneo in Perugia.

He became a professed religious in the Order of Saint Augustine.

The friar practiced a rigorous spiritual life and undertook frequent bouts of fasting in addition to periods of strict silence as both an act of meditation and repentance. One of the hermitages he dwelled in for a long period of time was that of San Giovanni somewhere around Bevagna.

In 1256 the townsfolk of Gualdo Cattaneo began wanting a church to replace a long-abandoned convent and in 1258 approached the Benedictine monks of San Pancrazio and requested them to provide the town with their former convent. The citizens persuaded the monks to donate the convent to the Augustinians at which point Ugolino accepted this former Benedictine residence and began the process of renovating it for his order's needs. He and Angelo da Foligno founded this convent for the order in Gualdo Cattaneo in 1258 at which point Ugolino was made its first prior - the religious served as such for the remainder of his life. A fellowship was opened and named after him though was dissolved after its 1568 suppression.

He died in 1260. His remains were transferred in 1262 to the church of Santi Antonio e Antonino. His first biographer from the 1600s was Lodovico Iacobilli.

## Beatification

The confirmation of the late friar's longstanding 'cultus' (or popular devotion) on 12 March 1919 allowed for Pope Benedict XV to approve his beatification. His local 'cultus' is said to have flourished after his death though became greater after 1483.

He is the patron of Gualdo Cattaneo.

# Thiais–Orly station

**Thiais–Orly station** is an underground station on Line 14 of the Paris Métro. It is part of the Grand Paris Express project. The station is located in the town of Thiais, on the outskirts of Orly Airport. It opened on 24 June 2024 as part of the southern extension of Line 14 from Olympiades to Aéroport d'Orly.

## Location and design

Located south of the RER C tracks and north of Avenue du Docteur-Marie, the station was built along a north–south axis. Opened in 2024, it connects with the RER C's existing Pont de Rungis–Aéroport d'Orly station.

The station occupies a former car park used by Air France. Passengers access the station through a building constructed above the underground station. This building houses the entrance hall, ticketing office, fare gates, bicycle parking, and local services. The north access to the station connects to the RER C platforms. The east access building has connections to local buses.

Line 14 platforms are approximately 26 meters deep. The entire station is fully accessible for people with reduced mobility.

The design consortium includes engineering firms SETEC and SYSTRA, alongside architecture firm Valode & Pistre. Artist Lyes Hammadouche created an artwork for the station in collaboration with architect Denis Valode.

Originally named *Pont de Rungis*, the station's name sparked controversy. Several mayors in Val-de-Marne disagreed with the chosen names for three stations, including this one, arguing they didn't reflect their actual locations. In September 2022, the station was officially renamed *Thiais - Orly*, with *Pont de Rungis* remaining as a subtitle.

title: Open-circuit time constant method

abstract: The open-circuit time constant (OCT) method is an approximate analysis technique used in electronic circuit design to determine the corner frequency of complex circuits. It is a special case of zero-value time constant (ZVT) method technique when reactive elements consist of only capacitors. The zero-value time (ZVT) constant method itself is a special case of the general Time- and Transfer Constant (TTC) analysis that allows full evaluation of the zeros and poles of any lumped LTI systems of with both inductors and capacitors as reactive elements using time constants and transfer constants. The OCT method provides a quick evaluation, and identifies the largest contributions to time constants as a guide to the circuit improvements. The basis of the method is the approximation that the corner frequency of the amplifier is determined by the term in the denominator of its transfer function that is linear in frequency. This approximation can be extremely inaccurate in some cases where a zero in the numerator is near in frequency. If all the poles are real and there are no zeros, this approximation is always conservative, in the sense that the inverse of the sum of the zero-value time constants is less than the actual corner frequency of the circuit. The method also uses a simplified method for finding the term linear in frequency based upon summing the RC-products for each capacitor in the circuit, where the resistor R for a selected capacitor is the resistance found by inserting a test source at its site and setting all other capacitors to zero. Hence the name zero-value time constant technique.

$$\frac {V\_{1}-V\_{O}{R\_{2}=j\omega C\_{2}V\_{O}\ ,}}$$

where *V*1 is the voltage at the top of capacitor *C*1. At the center node:

$$\frac {V\_{S}-V\_{1}{R\_{1}=j\omega C\_{1}V\_{1}+{\frac {V\_{1}-V\_{O}{R\_{2}\ .}}}}}$$

Combining these relations the transfer function is found to be:

$$\frac {V\_{O}{V\_{S}={\frac {1}{1+j\omega \left(C\_{2}(R\_{1}+R\_{2})+C\_{1}R\_{1}\right)+(j\omega )^{2}C\_{1}C\_{2}R\_{1}R\_{2}}}}}$$

The linear term in *j*ω in this transfer function can be derived by the following method, which is an application of the open-circuit time constant method to this example.

1. Set the signal source to zero.
2. Select capacitor *C*2, replace it by a test voltage *V*X, and replace *C*1 by an open circuit. Then the resistance seen by the test voltage is found using the circuit in the middle panel of Figure 1 and is simply *V*X / *I*X = *R*1 \+ *R*2. Form the product *C*2 ( *R*1 \+ *R*2 ).
3. Select capacitor *C*1, replace it by a test voltage *V*X, and replace *C*2 by an open circuit. Then the resistance seen by the test voltage is found using the circuit in the right panel of Figure 1 and is simply *V*X / *I*X = *R*1. Form the product *C*1 *R*1.
4. Add these terms.

In effect, it is as though each capacitor charges and discharges through the resistance found in the circuit when the other capacitor is an open circuit.

The open circuit time constant procedure provides the linear term in *j*ω regardless of how complex the RC network becomes. This was originally developed and proven by calculating the co-factors of the admittance matrix by Thornton and Searle. A more intuitive inductive proof of this (and other properties of TTC) was later developed by Hajimiri.

For a complex circuit, the procedure consists of following the above rules, going through all the capacitors in the circuit. A more general derivation is found in Gray and Meyer.

So far the result is general, but an approximation is introduced to make use of this result: the assumption is made that this linear term in *j*ω determines the corner frequency of the circuit.

That assumption can be examined more closely using the example of Figure 1: suppose the time constants of this circuit are τ1 and τ2; that is:

$$\left(1+j\omega {\tau }\_{1})(1+j\omega {\tau }\_{2}\right)=1+j\omega \left(C\_{2}(R\_{1}+R\_{2})+C\_{1}R\_{1}\right)+(j\omega )^{2}C\_{1}C\_{2}R\_{1}R\_{2}$$

Comparing the coefficients of the linear and quadratic terms in *j*ω, there results:

$$\tau \_{1}+\tau \_{2}=C\_{2}(R\_{1}+R\_{2})+C\_{1}R\_{1}\ ,$$

$$\tau \_{1}\tau \_{2}=C\_{1}C\_{2}R\_{1}R\_{2}\ .$$

One of the two time constants will be the longest; let it be τ1. Suppose for the moment that it is much larger than the other, τ1 \>\> τ2. In this case, the approximations hold that:

$$\tau \_{1}+\tau \_{2}\approx \tau \_{1}\ ,$$

and

$$\tau \_{2}={\frac {\tau \_{1}\tau \_{2}{\tau \_{1}\approx {\frac {\tau \_{1}\tau \_{2}{\tau \_{1}+\tau \_{2}\ .}}}}}}$$

In other words, substituting the RC-values:

$$\tau \_{1}\approx {\hat {\tau \_{1}=\ \tau \_{1}+\tau \_{2}=C\_{2}(R\_{1}+R\_{2})+C\_{1}R\_{1}\ ,}}$$

and

$$\tau \_{2}\approx {\hat {\tau \_{2}={\frac {\tau \_{1}\tau \_{2}{\tau \_{1}+\tau \_{2}={\frac {C\_{1}C\_{2}R\_{1}R\_{2}{C\_{2}(R\_{1}+R\_{2})+C\_{1}R\_{1}\ ,}}}}}}}}$$

where ( ^ ) denotes the approximate result. As an aside, notice that the circuit time constants both involve both capacitors; in other words, in general the circuit time constants are not decided by any single capacitor. Using these results, it is easy to explore how well the corner frequency (the 3 dB frequency) is given by

$$f\_{3dB}={\frac {1}{2\pi {\hat {\tau \_{1}\ ,}}}}$$

as the parameters vary. Also, the exact transfer function can be compared with the approximate one, that is,

$\frac {1}{(1+j\omega \tau \_{1})(1+j\omega \tau \_{2})}\ $ $\ $  with  $\ $ $\ {\frac {1}{(1+j\omega {\hat {\tau \_{1})(1+j\omega {\hat {\tau \_{2})}\ .}}}}}$

Of course agreement is good when the assumption τ1 \>\> τ2 is accurate.

Figure 2 illustrates the approximation. The x-axis is the ratio τ1 / τ2 on a logarithmic scale. An increase in this variable means the higher pole is further above the corner frequency. The y-axis is the ratio of the OCTC (open-circuit time constant) estimate to the true time constant. For the lowest pole use curve T\_1; this curve refers to the corner frequency; and for the higher pole use curve T\_2. The worst agreement is for τ1 = τ2. In this case τ^1 = 2 τ1 and the corner frequency is a factor of 2 too small. The higher pole is a factor of 2 too high (its time constant is half of the real value).

In all cases, the estimated corner frequency is closer than a factor of two from the real one, and always is *conservative* that is, lower than the real corner, so the actual circuit will behave better than predicted. However, the higher pole always is *optimistic*, that is, predicts the high pole at a higher frequency than really is the case. To use these estimates for step response predictions, which depend upon the ratio of the two pole frequencies (see article on pole splitting for an example), Figure 2 suggests a fairly large ratio of τ1 / τ2 is needed for accuracy because the errors in τ^1 and τ^2 reinforce each other in the ratio τ^1 / τ^2.

The open-circuit time constant method focuses upon the corner frequency alone, but as seen above, estimates for higher poles also are possible.

Application of the open-circuit time constant method to a number of single transistor amplifier stages can be found in Pittet and Kandaswamy.

# New York State Route 328

**New York State Route 328** (**NY 328**) is a northeast–southwest state highway located entirely within the town of Southport in Chemung County, New York, in the United States. The northeast end of NY 328 is at an intersection with NY 14 in the community of Southport, and the southwest terminus is at the Pennsylvania state line, where NY 328 continues on as Pennsylvania Route 328 (PA 328). NY 328 parallels Seeley Creek, a tributary of the Chemung River, for its entire length. The entirety of the 6.15-mile (9.90 km) route is part of Corridor U of the Appalachian Development Highway System.

## Route description

NY 328 picks up where PA 328 leaves off at the Pennsylvania state line in the southwestern Chemung County town of Southport. The route heads northeast, roughly paralleling Seeley Creek as it runs along the base of a large valley surrounding the waterway. After three-fifths of a mile (1.0 km), the route veers to the north as a super two, crossing the creek, while the roadway along the southern edge of Seeley Creek becomes County Route 69 (CR 69). NY 328 intersects CR 78 shortly afterward.

The route continues along the western base of the valley, bypassing both Webb Mills and Pine City as it continues to parallel both CR 69 and Seeley Creek. Near Pine City, NY 328 intersects CR 69, now named Pennsylvania Avenue, once more. Here, NY 328 transitions from a two-lane roadway to a four-lane divided highway, a configuration that remains in place for the final 3 miles (5 km) of the route. NY 328 continues along a narrow strip of land situated in the center of the valley between CR 69 and Seeley Creek to the hamlet of Southport, where it terminates at NY 14. At this point, NY 14 leaves Broadway and turns east onto the Clemens Center Parkway, the eastward and northward continuation of NY 328 into Elmira.

All of NY 328 is part of Corridor U of the Appalachian Development Highway System. The corridor continues south into Pennsylvania on PA 328 and U.S. Route 15 to Williamsport, Pennsylvania, and north along NY 14 to the Southern Tier Expressway (Interstate 86 and NY 17) in Horseheads.

## History

When NY 328 was assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York, it began on Sagetown Road at the SteubenChemung county line and followed Sagetown Road east to the hamlet of Seeley Creek. At Seeley Creek, NY 328 turned north to follow Pennsylvania Avenue into Elmira, where it ended at NY 14. At the same time, a connector between NY 328 at Seeley Creek and then-PA 549 at the Pennsylvania state line was designated NY 328A. Over the next few years, NY 328 was extended northward to Horseheads in stages, beginning with an extension along Broadway and Walnut Street to a new terminus at Water Street (NY 13 and NY 17E) by 1932.

NY 13 and NY 17E were moved one block northward onto Church Street c.1934. Around the same time, NY 328 was extended north to then-NY 17 in Horseheads by way of Church Street, Davis Street, Oakwood Avenue, and Corning Road between Elmira and Horseheads. It was altered slightly by 1938 to follow a more easterly alignment through Elmira via Broadway, Main Street, Park Place, College Avenue, and Thurston Street. The routing of NY 328 through the city was changed again by 1947 as the route was reconfigured to use Pennsylvania Avenue between Southport and Main Street and to bypass Thurston Street, Davis Street, and Oakwood Avenue on College Avenue. NY 14 was realigned c.1974 to follow the routing of NY 328 from Elmira to Horseheads. NY 328 was truncated to its current northern terminus in Southport as a result.

To the south, NY 328 was rerouted south of Seeley Creek c.1935 to connect directly to PA 549, replacing NY 328A. The former routing of NY 328 on Sagetown Road remained state maintained long after NY 328 had been realigned off of it. The roadway was designated NY 960D, an unsigned reference route; however, the route was turned over to the county by 1993 and is now CR 78. In the 1960s, NY 328 was realigned between Seeley Creek and Southport to follow a new roadway built to bypass the hamlets of Seeley Creek, Webb Mills, and Pine City. The realignment coincided with the designation of the route as part of Corridor U of the Appalachian Development Highway System in 1965. The former alignment of NY 328 between Seeley Creek and Southport is now CR 69.
