Abstract:
Drawing on a broader narrative inquiry into the curriculum making of participants who compose identities dissonant with dominant stories of gender and sexuality, this article explores the shaping influence of the social (relationships, communities, and contexts) in one participant's life story around sexuality from a curricular perspective. The term curriculum making represents an ongoing process through which individuals make sense and meaning of experience, position curriculum broadly as a course of life, and shift notions of curriculum and curriculum making beyond the bounds of school. Individuals engage in identity making as they make sense of themselves in relation to their curriculum making, narratively understood as the composition of stories to live by. This inquiry highlights the ways that life stories are composed alongside, connected to, and shaped by other people and draws the attention of educators to the complex lives unfolding in schools.

Abstract:
This study is part of a larger inquiry (Clandinin & Connelly, 2000), attended to children’s, teachers’, and parents’ narratives of experience situated within institutional, cultural, and social narratives shaping particular school contexts. As one teacher engaged in an autobiographical narrative inquiry alongside her mother’s lived and told stories, she learned curriculum making is intergenerational and woven with identity making. This teacher’s narrative inquiry led her to new ways of knowing, reshaping her practice. The study illuminates the importance of attending to the interwoven, intergenerational stories of teachers, children and parents stories in co-composing a curriculum of lives.

Abstract:
A cancer diagnosis heralds the onset of significant life changes. The various experiences of diagnosis, treatment, and recovery from cancer during adolescence and young adulthood are complex and disruptive. Emphasis on treatment and recovery often overshadows other social and developmental imperatives for adolescents and young adults. Acknowledging, exploring, and crafting one’s own sexual identity is a significant milestone achieved during this time, and it is one that is interrupted by the arrival and treatment of cancer. There is value in understanding how adolescents and young adults compose sexuality amid cancer experiences, and how this composition contributes to their ongoing stream of life experiences after recovery. As part of a larger study of sexuality and adolescent cancer, we undertook a narrative inquiry with Anna and Mark, two young adults who experienced cancer during adolescence. Over 14 months, we met with Anna and Mark, drawing on different narrative inquiry approaches to explore their past and ongoing experiences and to build negotiated stories of those experiences. We explored resonant threads between the stories, which help show the depth and complexity of sexuality as it is experienced in the midst of and after cancer. Two resonant threads are discussed: inward and outward looking, and sexuality and survival. The inquiry reveals the richness of self-composition amid competing stories of cancer treatment, disruptions to family and socialization, survivorship, what it means to be a young man or woman in the world, and the sense of a developing sexual self.

Abstract:
Collection of short stories of James Joyce in a book under the title of “Dubliners” (1914) is a collection composing of 15 short stories, which topic of all of them is living in Dublin (stories about death, love, live in school, etc.). Short story of “sisters” narrates feelings of a boy about death of a priest. The first woman, who is afraid of love, a mother in law speaks about ambition and destroys her daughter. It ispainful narrative of a single man, who leaves the woman he loves and the woman finds in the time of her death that he has been in his loneliness all his life. Accordingly, it could be mentioned that the author has selected in his short stories a style that Flober has been its establisher. Hence, stories in the collection of Dubliners have been strongly image-based and have been less relied on storied actions. (Stein et al, 2008)The present study has analyzed two short stories of the mentioned collection under the titles of “The Dead Persons” and “The sisters\s”. In this analysis, the author has considered internal modes and feelings of characters of the story. Process of analyzing the two works has been firstly related to analysis of every story separately and then has been related to goals and destinies of creator of the work and totally his collection of short stories. Finally, the study has considered investigation and analysis of short stories of James Joyce, which analysts and critics of his works have presented it and it is that Dubliners should be considered as an origin and generality. Considering stories of this artist separately can’t be a competent work, since as it is obvious in this collection, the author has been tended to achieve a specific goal through considering a certain order for these stories.

Abstract:
This article reports on a study of 23 tenth-grade students who created fiction in digital game and written formats. The researchers observed them at work, analysed their stories in both formats, and interviewed selected students to learn what affordances and constraints they demonstrate and/or articulate in such authoring. The students used ScriptEase, a software tool that supports the creation of digital stories, based on the game engine of Neverwinter Nights (Bioware). The authors consider the theoretical literature about narrative and games, focusing especially on indicators of verbal tense and mood. They discuss the overlaps and differences between digital and written stories, drawing in particular on the work of two students, and they conclude with implications for theoretical understandings of contemporary narratives in multiple formats and implications for literacy education.

In her commentary on Jerome’s Vita Malchi, in the section called ‘Literary form and texture’ Gray discusses the existing literature on which Jerome drew in composing Vita Malchi. She provides a detailed account of the sources and possible influences on Jerome under the headings Christian literature, biblical quotations and allusions, and secular literature. In a previous article, I have indicated multiple references and allusions to both classical sources and the Bible in this work of St Jerome. In this article the focus falls on a possible allusion to the story of Pyramus and Thisbe, a source which has not previously been considered amongst the possible influences on Vita Malchi. The love stories of Aeneas and Dido and Pyramus and Thisbe are compared to and contrasted with the story of Malchus and his ‘wife’.

Abstract:
While current assessment methods for preventing progressive collapse are mainly associated with blast and impact loading, no systematic framework is currently available for the practical and rational assessment of robustness of multi-storey building structures under localised fire. In this thesis, a robustness assessment framework with various alternative levels of sophistication is presented with the aim of bridging the gap between the topics of structural fire resistance and progressive collapse. The robustness assessment framework developed in this thesis is comprised of four basic components, namely, detailed Temperature-Dependent Approach, simplified Temperature-Dependent Approach, Temperature-Independent Approach, and practical design recommendations. These assessment approaches can satisfy various design requirements in different design stages. To illustrate their application, localised fire induced by burning vehicles in a typical multi-storey steel-composite car park is considered as a main reference scenario. A Robustness Limit State (RLS) is proposed, which is based on the fact that large inelastic deformations of building structures subject to extreme loading are typically concentrated in the joint regions, thus failure of joints in certain locations may lead to floor collapse, and subsequently trigger progressive collapse. Therefore, no floor collapse is allowed in the current RLS. Since joint resistance and ductility play an essential role in mitigating progressive collapse, a component-based joint modelling technique and multiple joint failure criteria for commonly used semi-rigid joints are proposed and thoroughly discussed. The proposed joint modelling strategy is shown to be capable of capturing realistic nonlinear behaviour of joints under both ambient and elevated temperatures. Employing the proposed joint failure criteria, the application of the robustness assessment framework is illustrated for the reference structure, and important conclusions are drawn relating to the accuracy and reliability of each assessment approach. Furthermore, multi-level structural modelling strategies, the significance of structural dynamic effects during fire, factors influencing structural robustness, and future research

Os sistemas de cobertura constituem uma parcela considerável dos custos finais de galpões de grandes dimensões. Os carregamentos desse sistema são transferidos para os pilares a partir dos vigamentos principais. Dúvidas sobre qual é a melhor solução para o dimensionamento do vigamento principal podem surgir devido aos grandes vãos que essas estruturas devem cumprir. Esta dissertação apresenta um estudo das configurações estruturais e uso de diferentes materiais para o projeto, fabricação e montagem de coberturas de galpões de grandes dimensões. Foram desenvolvidos diversos projetos de uma estrutura modelo onde se variou o tipo de perfil das cordas, o comprimento dos vãos, a geometria da seção transversal da treliça e a inclinação das diagonais. A partir dos resultados obtidos, realizou-se uma análise paramétrica buscando-se a solução que apresenta o menor peso estrutural dos vigamentos principais. A grande vantagem da utilização de treliças multiplanares é o bom comportamento fora do plano que esse tipo de estrutura oferece, podendo reduzir custos com travamentos e elementos secundários. Também foi realizado um estudo determinístico para dar apoio às decisões na escolha da melhor solução para os diversos tipos de galpões de grandes dimensões estudados. Os resultados preliminares obtidos indicam que a solução de cordas tubulares mistas, em partes selecionadas da estrutura, representa uma das soluções mais competitivas para este tipo de estrutura.
Roofing systems constitute a considerable part of the final costs of large single-storey buildings. The loads of this system are transferred to the columns from the girders. During the design process may be raised the question of what may be the best solutions for the roof supporting girders, mainly due to the large spans required. This dissertation presents a study of the structural configurations and the use of different materials for the design, manufacture and assembly of roofs of large single-storey buildings. Several designs of a model structure were developed where the type of profile of the main chords, the length of the spans, the geometry of the cross-section of the truss and the angulation of diagonals were varied. Based on the obtained results, a parametric analysis was performed focused on solutions presenting the lower structural weight of the girders. The great advantage of using multiplanar trusses is the good behavior out of plane that this type of structure offers, which can reduce costs with bracing and secondary elements. A deterministic study was also carried out in order to support decisions in choosing the best solution for the various types of large single-storey buildings studied. The preliminary results obtained indicate that the solution of concrete filled steel tubular chords in selected parts of the structure represents one of the most competitive solutions for this type of construction.

Full text
Abstract:
As part of the continuing effort undertaken at Imperial College London to develop a unified measure of robustness, the current study addresses several issues which were identified in the past as prospective enhancements to the ductility-centred framework. As robustness evaluates the structural performance against extreme local actions, it should consider within the assessment framework the duration of the accidental event and its repercussion on the structural response. In this context, incorporation of rate-sensitivity is a step forward to a more realistic structural assessment under blast/impact loading. Towards this end, the rate-sensitivity of steel is quantified with the aid of experimental coupon tests. Subsequent studies on rate-sensitivity at the structural level, which similarly include validation by component testing under moderate to high rates, address a knowledge gap on the dynamic over-strength and ductility supply associated with sudden column loss scenarios. Further developments are made to the framework in order to accommodate material rate-sensitivity, where a case study is undertaken which illustrates the diminishing rate effects at higher structural levels. Since local damage resulting from extreme loading does not revolve around a single possible damage scenario, it is important to investigate other local damage scenarios besides the typically considered single column removal. In this context, the feasibility and practicality of scenarios involving the simultaneous loss of multiple columns are considered, with generalisation of the simplified dynamic assessment and development of simplified models based on dominant modes of deformation. As the study of different damage scenarios moves the discussion on robustness towards rational risk assessment, this work aims to demonstrate the adequacy of the ductility-centred framework to the quantification of the failure probability under column loss scenarios. With an illustrative application study, it is established that such risk assessment is not only feasible but may ultimately provide a valuable decision-making tool in the design process of robust structures.

Abstract:
La tesi si occupa di un argomento ancora poco studiato, ovvero la durabilità dei materiali compositi fibrorinforzati a matrice polimerica (FRP) applicati ai substrati murari dell’edilizia storica, con particolare riguardo a come la presenza di umidità e di sali all’interno della muratura possa influire negativamente sull’efficacia del legame di adesione tra substrato e materiale composito FRP. La prima parte dell’elaborato è incentrata sulla definizione delle principali caratteristiche dei materiali compositi FRP, del loro utilizzo nel rinforzo strutturale del patrimonio edilizio storico e della loro durabilità in relazione a vari fattori di degrado, sulla base della letteratura tecnico-scientifica disponibile. La seconda parte riguarda la descrizione della campagna sperimentale condotta, dalla descrizione dei materiali e dei metodi impiegati fino alla discussione dei risultati ottenuti: sono stati studiati provini costituiti da mattoni in laterizio rinforzati con matrice polimerica a base di resina epossidica e tessuto unidirezionale in trefoli di acciaio. I provini sono stati sottoposti a due differenti tipi di cicli di condizionamento in modo da ricreare le condizioni di substrati murari affetti rispettivamente da umidità e sali: sono state poi eseguite le prove di taglio diretto per valutare il peggioramento del legame di adesione. In seguito, sono state effettuate le prove di caratterizzazione dei materiali: la cromatografia ionica e l’analisi al microscopio, per comprendere le modalità di rottura riscontrate nei campioni affetti dalla presenza di sali, e due diverse prove meccaniche standard (prova di flessione a 3 punti e prova brasiliana), per comprendere le modalità di rottura osservate nei campioni affetti da umidità. Infine, su singoli mattoni rinforzati in maniera analoga ai provini precedenti sono state svolte delle prove di pull-off, per confermare i risultati ottenuti in precedenza e avere una visione più completa riguardo il fenomeno dell’adesione.

Abstract:
L’obiettivo di questo studio è analizzare l’adesione tra i compositi fibrosi a matrice inorganica (FRCM) e alcune tipolgie di substrato su cui vengono applicati, attraverso l'esecuzione, in laboratorio, di prove di pull off, un test effettuabile anche in sito che consiste in un’estrazione semi-distruttiva al fine di valutare la forza di legame tra substrato e rinforzo. Nel presente studio sono stati scelti come substrati alcuni tra i materiali più impiegati nell’architettura storica: due tipi di laterizio (giallo e rosso) e due materiali lapidei porosi (pietra leccese e tufo napoletano). Alcuni di essi sono stati sottoposti a cicli di cristallizzazione salina per portarli a una condizione di degrado simile a quella della muratura esistente. Sono poi stati applicati gli FRCM. Come matrici inorganiche sono state utilizzati due tipi di malta a base di calce idraulica e una malta cementizia, combinate con rinforzi di reti di fibre in vetro o reti di fibre in basalto, applicati secondo le indicazioni fornite dai produttori. Dall’analisi dei risultati dei test di pull off si evince che l’adesione tra il substrato ed il composito è forte nella maggior parte dei casi, data la modalità di rottura coesiva prevalente, soprattutto nel tufo, il che però contraddice la letteratura riguardo alla reversibilità dell’intervento. Per quanto riguarda il degrado da sali è emerso che esso non ha danneggiato l’efficacia del rinforzo, bensì ha reso le superfici più scabre, incrementando quindi l’adesione. La prova di pull off è risultata essere una prova semplice, tuttavia si è riscontrata un’elevata dispersione dei risultati, quindi è necessario realizzare numerose prove. In sito si deve tener conto dell'eterogeneità dei materiali della muratura e della presenza di malta tra i giunti.

Abstract:
During the twentieth century, men and women across Ireland picked up cameras, photographing days out at the beach, composing views of Ireland’s cities and countryside, and recording political events as they witnessed them. Indeed, while foreign photographers often focused on the image of Ireland as a bucolic rural landscape, Irish photographers—snapshotter and professional alike—were creating and curating photographs of Ireland which revealed more complex and diverse images of Ireland. Snapshot Stories explores these stories. It examines a diverse array of photographic sources, including family photograph albums, studio portraits, and the work of photography clubs and community photography initiatives, alongside the output of those who took their cameras into the streets to record violence and poverty. It shows how Irish men and women used photography in order to explore their sense of self and society, and examines how we can use these images to fill in the details of Ireland’s social history. Through exploring this rich array of sources, it asks what it means to see—to look, to gaze, to glance—in modern Ireland, and explores how conflicts regarding vision and visuality have repeatedly been at the centre of Irish life.

Abstract:
This book unites feminist international research with the writing, composing, and production of a musical designed to critique the discourse about the trafficking of women in Thailand. Through writing and producing “Land of Smiles,” a two-act, fifteen-song musical inspired by field research that includes over fifty interviews with female migrant laborers, sex workers, community-based women’s rights activists, non-governmental organization (NGO) employees, and other development actors in Thailand’s anti-trafficking movement, playwright, composer and feminist scholar Erin Kamler presents one of the dominant stories about human trafficking and shows that the voices of the people, most often women, can illuminate the problems and highlight the difficulties in finding solutions. This project was designed to serve as a platform for dialogue among stakeholders in Thailand’s anti-trafficking movement through a three-phase process of uncovering, recovering and articulating the lived experience of the “subject”—the trafficking “victim”—who the movement seeks to rescue, as well as the NGO employees who are embedded in the social catastrophe that underscores this movement. Through researching, writing and performing the musical for the communities on whom its story is based, Kamler shows the importance of lived experience as a framework for understanding social catastrophe, and the power of musical theater in conveying that understanding through a feminist, liberatory praxis. She calls this praxis Dramatization as Research, or DAR.

The main part of the chapter is devoted to the state-of-the-art review on how concrete time effects influence the long-term and ultimate behaviour of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns, and on the combined effects produced by sustained loading and chloride corrosion on CFST columns. The review then deals with the long-term behaviour of concrete-filled double skin tube (CFDST) and encased composite columns. The final parts of the chapter provide a review of the time-dependent differential axial shortening (DAS) in vertical components of multi-storey buildings and on the long-term response of arch bridges.</p>

Abstract:
AbstractIn Tanzania, about 90% of the banana-coffee-based farming systems lie in the hands of smallholder farmer families. In these systems, smallholder farmers traditionally add farm waste to crop fields, making soils rich in organic matter (humus) and plant-available nutrients. Correspondingly, soils remained fertile during cultivation for over a century. Since the 1960s, the increasing demand for food and biofuels of a growing population has resulted in an overuse of these farming systems, which has occurred in tandem with deforestation, omitted fallows, declined farm size, and soil erosion. Hence, humus and nutrient contents in soils have decreased and soils gradually degraded. Inadequate use of farm waste has led to a further reduction in soil fertility, as less organic material is added to the soils for nutrient supply than is removed during harvesting. Acknowledging that the traditional use of farm waste successfully built up soil fertility over a century and has been reduced in only a few decades, we argue that traditional composting practices can play a key role in rebuilding soil fertility, if such practices are adapted to face the modern challenges. In this chapter, we discuss two cases in Tanzania: one on the traditional use of compost in the Kagera region (Great African Rift Valley) and another about adapted practices to produce compost manure in the Morogoro region (Uluguru Mountains). Both cases refer to rainfed, smallholder banana-coffee-based farming systems. To conclude, optimised composting practices enable the replenishment of soil nutrients, increase the capacity of soils to store plant-available nutrients and water and thus, enhance soil fertility and food production in degraded banana-coffee-based farming systems. We further conclude that future research is needed on a) nutrient cycling in farms implementing different composting practices and on b) socio-economic analyses of farm households that do not successfully restore soil fertility through composting.

Abstract:
<p>This chapter presents a number of case studies that deal with the service design of composite steel-concrete buildings associated with the time-dependent behaviour of the concrete. The particular focus of this chapter is to outline key design aspects that need to be accounted for in design and that are influenced by concrete time effects. The first case study provides an overview of the design considerations related to the time-dependent column shortening in typical multi-storey buildings by considering the layout of the Intesa Sanpaolo Headquarters in Turin as reference. The second case study focuses on a composite floor of a commercial building constructed in Australia and it provides an overview of the conceptual design used to select the steel beam framing arrangement to support the composite floor system while accounting for concrete cracking and time effects. The third case study deals with the Quay Quarter Tower that has been designed for the repurposing of an existing 50-year old building in Australia while accounting for the time-dependent interaction between the existing and the new concrete components of the building.</p>

Abstract:
The Natural Gas Industry is changing rapidly. Yesterday, the producer sold to the gathering company, the gathering company sold to the pipeline company, the pipeline company sold, processed, stored, and moved the gas to the end user. Today, the end user buys from the producer, the gatherer, pipeliner, processor, storer. All handle someone else’s gas. There is only one way to know the quality of your product. Take a representative sample. Since everything that is done to gas changes it, you must know its’ quality as it is produced, compressed, processed, stripped, stored, and sold. This takes an analysis of that collected representative sample. Your company’s sampling techniques determine that gas quality. The people involved and the equipment used to collect the sample, store, transport, condition, and analyze that sample all make a profound difference. This paper will cover all of the aspects of gas quality determination and the business impacts of sampling accuracy. The issues discussed include: where on the line should the sample be taken, how should it be taken to protect its’ quality, what about transportation, D.O.T., cylinders, what happens to the gas in that cylinder, conditioning in the lab, heating, cooling, manifolds, and analyzers. Each step in the sampling operation will be discussed, as well as the ramifications of errors involved. This paper will also cover recent tests involving spot sampling test to maintain phase control and data from continuing test of composite samplers.

Abstract:
The hydrogen economy envisioned in the future requires safe and efficient means of storing hydrogen fuel for either use onboard vehicles, delivery on mobile transportation systems or high-volume storage in stationary systems. The main emphasis of this work is placed on the high -pressure storing of gaseous hydrogen on-board vehicles. As a result of its very low density, hydrogen gas has to be stored under very high pressure, ranging from 350 to 700 bars for current systems, in order to achieve practical levels of energy density in terms of the amount of energy that can be stored in a tank of a given volume. This paper presents 3D finite element analysis performed for a composite cylindrical tank made of 6061-aluminum liner overwrapped with carbon fibers subjected to a burst internal pressure of 1610 bars. As the service pressure expected in these tanks is 700 bars, a factor of safety of 2.3 is kept the same for all designs. The results indicated that a stress reduction could be achieved by a geometry change only, which could increase the amount of pressure sustained inside the vessel and ultimately increase the amount of hydrogen stored per volume. Such reductions in the stresses will decrease the thickness dimension required to achieve a particular factor of safety in a direct comparison to a cylindrical design.

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON SEISMIC PERFORMANCE OF PEC COMPOSITE COLUMN-STEEL BEAM FRAME WITH WELDED T-STUB STRENGTHENED CONNECTIONS. The Hong Kong Institute of Steel Construction, September 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.18057/ijasc.2021.17.3.5.

Full text
Abstract:
Seismic performance of innovative Partially Encased Composite (PEC) column-steel beam composite frame was investigated, where the connection was strengthened by the welded T-stub. A ½ scale, two-storey, and one bay composite frame specimen was designed and fabricated for the quasi-static test. Through the experimental observation and measurements, the seismic performance were evaluated, including hysteretic characteristic, lateral stiffness, seismic energy dissipation, and ductility. The plastic damage evolution process and ductile failure mode were clarified. The results indicated that the welded T-stud strengthened connection enhanced the integrity of the frame and led to higher seismic strength and larger lateral stiffness. The plastic hinge was observed away from the beam end due to the welded T-stud and the specimen exhibited an approximately completed hysteretic loop. Without significant decreasing of the ultimate bearing capacity, its overall drift, ductility efficient and equivalent viscous damping ratio were 3.63% (push) / 4.07% (pull), 3.21 (push) / 3.70 (pull) and 0.261 respectively. The proposed structure possesses sound deformation, ductility, and energy-dissipation capacity with the desired plastic failure mode induced by the plastic hinges formed in all beam sections near the T-stud end and column section at the bottom, successively. It was demonstrated an ideal ductile energy-dissipation mode of the frame structure.
