Abstract:
Is Queer modernism simply another name for modernism?As Douglas Mao and Rebecca L. Walkowitz note in their introduction to the 2006 collection Bad Modernisms, “[T]here were numerous ways of being outside in the early twentieth century” (7). Efforts over the past several decades to imagine modernism as an expanded field have been remarkably successful. Female modernism, African American modernism, queer modernism, sentimental modernism, low- and middlebrow modernism, and colonial, postcolonial, and anticolonial modernism have all been integrated into a renewed understanding of modernism (or modernisms, as it is often written). In addition, the rethinking of modernism as a set of aesthetic movements in relation to a larger context of global modernity and modernization has turned the inside out. Since few modernists, on closer inspection, appear to have stayed high or dry, bad modernism, outsider modernism, and marginal modernism begin to look more and more like modernism itself.

Abstract:
Abstract This article pursues the elements of architectural Modernism in James Graham Ballard’s 1975 novel High-Rise (1975). The enormous tower block represents a triumph of technological and constructional progress envisioned by the pioneers of modernist architecture. However, Ballard’s vision of social development within it is regressive and violent. In order to decipher the nature of the role, or lack thereof, of the tower block in the reformulation of its own social fabric, the paper studies the ways in which the narrative presents aspects analogous to the key elements of architectural modernism. Particular attention is paid to the narrative’s reflections of radical and often contradictory visions of key figures of theoretical roots of modernism, such as Le Corbusier and Karel Teige. Their ambiguous stance on the core of modernism not only determines the outcome of the social experiment performed by Ballard in High-Rise, but can also be seen as deforming the building practice until today.

Abstract:
This article explores the reciprocal relationship between modernism and Harper's Bazaar (UK) during 1929–35. In its early years this commercial fashion magazine exploited modernism's perceived exclusivity and highbrow status to flatteringly construct its aspirational readers as culturally sophisticated people. Whether printing modernist texts and artworks or parodying their experimental style, early Harper's Bazaar (UK) promoted the reception of modernist writers and artists as high cultural celebrities, whose presence in the magazine enhanced its cultural value. While insisting on the exclusivity of modernist art and literature, Harper's Bazaar (UK) simultaneously facilitated the mainstreaming of modernism by commodifying modernist texts and artworks and teaching its readers how to approach them. During the early 1930s, this article argues, Harper's Bazaar (UK) helped to establish early narratives of modernism's origins and development while marketing modernism as a desirable, high-end cultural product to its fashion-conscious audience.

Abstract:
This paper explores the relationship between literary modernism and mainstream culture within a little-studied American magazine, Life (New York, 1884-1936). It does so by looking at three ways in which Life presented modernism to its readers: by quoting modernist writing, and, above all, by satirizing modernist art, and by offering didactic explanations of modernist art and literature. By reconsidering some of the long-established divisions between high and low culture, and between ‘little’ and ‘bigger’ magazines, this paper contributes to a better understanding of what modernism was and meant. It also suggests that the double agenda observed in Life – both satirical and didactic – might be a way of defining middlebrow magazines.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper investigates the rise of aesthetic modernism in Turkey’s early republican era (i.e., the late 1920s and the 1930s), with an emphasis on the influence of international cultural currents on Turkey’s intelligentsia. The paper concentrates on the modernist ideas and works of the D Group, who advocated a high modernism in the plastic arts, and the literary modernism of the socialist poet Nâzım Hikmet (Ran). Firstly, it addresses the historiographical argument that aesthetic modernism in Turkey was a derivative enterprise, a low-grade replica of European modernism. Secondly, it argues that the early republican intelligentsia found itself in a dilemma with regard to modernist currents. For them, aesthetic modernism was a sign of the modern epoch, but it also carried a radical potential for a critique of bourgeois modernity. Aesthetic modernism not only promised change, functionality, and renewal, but also manifested such disturbing symptoms of modernity as individualism, melancholy, degeneration, and restlessness. The paper reaches the conclusion that figures such as the D Group artists and Nâzım Hikmet translated the avant-garde international currents of aesthetic modernism into the early republican context, opting for positive and optimistic versions of modernism rather than adopting its more alienating, pessimistic, and despairing features. Through their works, an intellectual debate on aesthetic modernism was initiated in early republican Turkey.

Abstract:
In ‘With a Plural Vengeance: Modernism as (Flaming) Brand’, Michael Coyle examines the renaissance of modernism within the academic institution since the early 1990s, and the vigorous yet controversial re-branding through which this has in part been achieved. Defending this revisionary modernist studies, he argues that the issue for contemporary scholars is not primarily one of purging the elitism of a previously dominant ‘high modernist canon’, but of emphasising the pluralistic rather than singular criteria of canon-formation.

Abstract:
In examining the urban heritage, which has often been fragmented in Belgrade as a result of different social and political circumstances, the issue of the choice of methodology is often raised in urban conservation. The present paper will propose to consider along these lines the role of high (second) Modernism in the architecture and urban development of Belgrade. The strategies of urban conservation focusing on the main issue of the synthesis of the historical and planned structure would be directed towards the Modernist phenomena which are established as a platform structure of the urban conservation of Belgrade's spatial cultural and historical units. The present research analyses the potential and possibilities of implementing the postulates of the Modernist creative efforts in the contemporary architectural, urban planning and conservation theory and practice, with the analytical basis in the seminal work of architect Milica Šterić (1914-1997) - the Energoprojekt building (1956-1960), located in Zeleni Venac Square in Belgrade. This study, which is based on certain aspects of the high Modernism, namely rationalism and neutrality, aims to point out a number of issues in the current globalist textualism, in which concepts of high Modernism and internationalism are evidently manipulated in the historical urban contexts of the city.

Abstract:
This special issue of Modernist Cultures is animated by two claims. First, that modernism is funny, and the moderns inveterate laughers, gigglers, joke-pullers, and devastating wags. Second, that modernism's ubiquitous laughter is overlooked, undertheorized, and downright gagged by the aura of high seriousness that still infuses critical descriptions of modernism: of its heroic gambits to shore up a besieged world of authenticity, plenitude, and presence; of its aristocratic disdain for the enervating banality of quotidian modernity; of its arch and unfeeling formalism.

Abstract:
Since the last decade of the twentieth century, there has been renewed interest in photographing high Modernist structures and architectures. A significant portion of these images has tended towards the autotelic or spectacle, with far fewer functioning as social commentary or critique. However, the need for an independent and critical photography of architecture remains. Such a practice furthers our understanding of the lasting legacy of architectural modernity and its ongoing impact/s. This dissertation investigates the critical representation of high Modernist structures, architectures, and urban planning in specific works by contemporary artists and photographers, Andreas Gursky, Filip Dujardin, David Goldblatt, and Beate Gütschow. However diverse their practice, each of these artists and photographers engages with the authoritarian impetus of high Modernism: a drive towards social order and control enacted through its structures and architectures. Through investigation of a range of photographic projects produced with a view to critique the social expression of high Modernism, I argue that contemporary photography which takes architecture as its subject has the ability to communicate wider notions about society. These artists and photographers reveal the degree to which humanity has been elided by high Modernist architectures and planning. By discussing these projects I contribute to a relatively under-researched area of study.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis argues that the popular characterization of high modernist fiction as esoteric, elitist, uncommunicative, and far too difficult for the common reader obscures the democratic principles at the heart of modernist experimentation and its poetics of difficulty. Recent theories of embodied cognition when applied to representative examples of high modernist novels help dispel the myth of inaccessibility and reveal the many ways in which these works actually accommodate the common reader. Once the stigma of inaccessibility is removed from the study of modernist novels, it becomes possible to see how their formal experiments with language as well as the themes and issues they contain operate for readers and writers alike as a means of exploring everyday cognitive activities and responses. To this end, the concept of cognitive dissonance provides a heuristic device for understanding what lies behind the motivations of writers who aestheticise experiences of dissonance in their texts and the responses of readers who confront these texts. This cognitive approach to modern literature challenges assumptions about high modernism's "uncompromising intellectuality" and replaces them with a view of modernism that is more accessible and inclusive without diminishing its radical difficulty. It also paves the way for new readings of highly canonical modernist fiction. For instance, I examine how James Joyce places "inscribed" readers into Ulysses to guide actual readers through some of the difficulties of the novel. I then read William Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury as a novel that both thematises and formally resists the modern threat of behaviouristic human conditioning. Finally, I look at how the theme and form of Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway reinforce the embodied equation of dissonance with illness and incompletion.

Abstract:
Through the story of Kathputli Colony, thiss essay; Creating Urbanity – Destroying Cultures, Relationships Between Public and Private in Kathputli Colony, New Delhi, India, discusses various degrees of public and private in urban architecture. It compares the architecture of the former Kathputli Colony with the new architecture proposed for the site. Striving to become a “world class city”, Delhi has, through the Master Plan 2021, decided to raze all informal settlements and replace them with high-rises. Kathputli Colony was such an informal settlement; an urban environment built up by an architecture that responded to the needs and economic means of its inhabitants. Its design was the result of network connections and personal relationships merging public and private life. The essay concludes that Kathputli Colony consisted of a heterogeneous architecture, that had more in common with pre-industrial urbanism and village-architecture, than with the modernist architecture of the high-rises with its clear separation between public and private, work and leisure.

Abstract:
This paper examines the US-Cuban relationship during the first military occupation of Cuba from 1898 to 1902, to show the role of high modernist state building in the occupation and the scope of Cuban participation in this endeavor. This is evidenced by heavily examining the annual reports of the US Military Governor General of Cuba and the US appointed civil secretaries of the Cuban government. This research differs from previous studies in the field by introducing James C. Scott’s concepts of legibility and high modernist state building, as well as suggesting that the Cuban civil secretaries participated within a limited scope to help form an independent republic.

Abstract:
By 1970, Singapore’s urban landscape was dominated by high-rise blocks of planned public housing built by the People’s Action Party government, signifying the establishment of a high modernist nation-state. A decade earlier, the margins of the City had been dominated by kampongs, home to semi-autonomous communities of low-income Chinese families which freely built, and rebuilt, unauthorised wooden houses. This change was not merely one of housing but belied a more fundamental realignment of state-society relations in the 1960s. Relocated in Housing and Development Board flats, urban kampong families were progressively integrated into the social fabric of the emergent nation-state. This study examines the pivotal role of an event, the great Kampong Bukit Ho Swee fire of 1961, in bringing about this transformation. The redevelopment of the fire site in the aftermath of the calamity brought to completion the British colonial regime’s ‘emergency’ programmes of resettling urban kampong dwellers in planned accommodation, in particular, of building emergency public housing on the sites of major fires in the 1950s. The PAP’s far greater political resolve, and the timing of and state of emergency occasioned by the scale of the 1961 disaster, enabled the government to rehouse the Bukit Ho Swee fire victims in emergency housing in record time. This in turn provided the HDB with a strategic platform for clearing other kampongs and for transforming their residents into model citizens of the nation-state. The 1961 fire’s symbolic usefulness extended into the 1980s and beyond, in sanctioning the PAP’s new housing redevelopment schemes. The official account of the inferno has also become politically useful for the government of today for disciplining a new generation of Singaporeans against taking the nation’s progress for granted. Against these exalted claims of the fire’s role in the Singapore Story, this study also examines the degree of actual change and continuity in the social and economic lives of the people of Bukit Ho Swee after the inferno. In some crucial ways, the residents continued to occupy a marginal place in society while pondering, too, over the unresolved question of the cause of the fire. These continuities of everyday life reflect the ambivalence with which the citizenry regarded the high modernist state in contemporary Singapore.

Abstract:
The dissertation examines how medieval poetic tradition was reactivated in the production of poetry from the period between the two world wars—the Polish interwar period, defined here as one of literary transition. The positioning in regard to certain literary conventions and the quest for a new normativity that is so prevalent in interwar poetry is also reflected in the era’s poetry on the theme of Mary. Marian lyrics, owing to their strong position in Polish literature (but also by dint of their role in Polish piety and national identity), serve as an indicator in identifying and defining certain poetic processes. Central to this are the respective relationships of Marian themes to tradition and to the poetic norms of the era: is a given poem located along the traditional axis (if so, which), does it run counter to it, or is it an innovation? The poems analysed—Julian Przyboś’ Heavenly Blue, Jerzy Liebert’s Litany to the Virgin Mary, Tytus Czyżewski’s De profundis, Maria Pawlikowska-Jasnorzewska’s The Black Portrait, Józef Czechowicz’ pious rhymes—represent disparate poetic models: the Krakow Avant-garde, Catholic literature, formism/futurism, the circle of Skamander, the Poetics of the Third Sphere in the Second Avant-garde. Reflected here is the broad spectrum of the period’s poetic trends, tendencies, and constellations—as are the historical and literary events of the era. Despite important differences in the poetic/aesthetic models, in these poems it is possible to identify shared characteristics relevant to this study, that is, elements of medieval poetry. The identifying criterion for these elements here is the concept of dogmatic formal language. In the poems medieval poetics are transformed into their own modern form and integrated into the respective poetic models. No other literary epoch offers what the poets are seeking better than poetic formal language modelled on medieval liturgical language. The five poets all participate in what has been called the interwar paradigm shift in Polish poetry—a parameter that only indirectly relates to modernism. The term high modernism (in the sense of the culmination of Polish poetic modernism) can serve to summarize the historical and literary delimitations and definitions in the study. As interwar poetry is indeed part of the definitive emergence and full expansion of modernism in Polish literature, serving as a link between tradition and innovation, such a study of the influence of high modernism and Marian lyrics on each other aspires to reflect general processes in the poetry of the time.

West, Emma. "The highs and lows of modernism : a cultural deconstruction." Thesis, Cardiff University, 2017. http://orca.cf.ac.uk/101029/.

Full text
Abstract:
Over the past two decades, scholars have shown that the modernist ‘Great Divide’ between high and low culture is culturally-constructed, reductive and oversimplified. Yet, despite these critical disavowals, the field of modernist studies is still informed by the Divide’s binary systems of evaluation and classification. ‘High’ and ‘low’ texts are studied in isolation and modernism is privileged over popular culture. This thesis argues that we must address the Great Divide’s structure if we are to move beyond it. The Divide is underpinned by three structural myths: that of essence (texts are inherently high or low), mutual exclusivity (texts are either high or low) and precedence (high texts come before low ones). Over the course of four chapters, this study seeks to define, challenge and reconfigure the Great Divide, exploring new approaches which allow us to study texts from across the cultural spectrum together. After an initial chapter which maps out the Great Divide in early-twentieth-century Britain, the following three chapters interrogate the structural myths in turn. Chapter 2 disputes the myth of essence, arguing that both ‘little’ and ‘popular’ magazines are shaped by external factors; Chapter 3 considers travel posters, showing that they exhibit apparently mutually-exclusive aesthetic and publicity functions at once; and Chapter 4 examines the extent to which innovations in mass-market fashion predated their modernist counterparts. Informed by theory but rooted in print culture, this thesis combines cultural history and deconstruction to displace the Great Divide as a system of classification and reinstate it as an object of study. Only by viewing high, low and middlebrow texts together can we trace the effects that socio-economic conditions, prevailing aesthetic norms and audience demands had on a text’s production, circulation and reception.

Full text
Abstract:
Depuis le début du millénaire, le régime dirigé par le Front démocratique révolutionnaire du peuple éthiopien -FDRPE- (The Etiopian People’s Revolutionary Democratic Front -EPRDF-) a mené une série d’opérations visant à atteindre un objectif clé du gouvernement : l’État de développement démocratique autoproclamé du régime. Cette thèse, inspirée par des idéologies politiques particulières, tente de comprendre la notion et la matérialisation du développementalisme démocratique dans le contexte d’un modèle de gouvernance ethno-fédéral, en utilisant le projet hydroélectrique Gibe III comme cas d’étude illustratif.À cette fin, il m’a semblé pertinent d’opter pour une approche de recherche empirique axée sur la matérialité et les pratiques quotidiennes de l’État, dans une perspective multi-scalaire. A cela s’ajoute un travail de terrain de 18 mois, mené à la fois à l’échelle nationale mais aussi à des échelles plus locales, s’appuyant sur une approche qualitative. L’analyse met en évidence la complexité des processus relatifs à la matérialisation d’un État de développement dans la vallée de l’Omo : d’une part, le gouvernement central accroît sa capacité de contrôle et d’extraction des ressources dans cette périphérie, au sein d’une république fédérale, en tant qu’ « effets d’État de développement », et renforce la légitimité des performances grâce à la construction d’un barrage, du moins à l’échelle nationale; d’autre part, la matérialisation d’un État de développement prend de plus en plus une forme autoritaire dans ce processus et le déni des revendications des populations affectées et de leurs résistances grandissantes semble compromettre sa légitimité politique
The EPRDF-led regime, since the turn of the new millennium, has been conducting a series of operations that seek toachieve a key government objective: the regime’s self-declared democratic developmental state. However, literature on thisissue has been dominated by technocratic and macro-intuitionalist analyses. There has been, surprisingly, little in-depth qualitative research on its materiality and concrete practices, and multiscaled effects. This thesis, inspired by political explanations, tries to understand the notion and materialization of the democratic developmentalism in the context of ethno-federal model of governance by using the Gibe III hydropower project as a case study. To this end, it opted for a grounded empirical research approach that focuses on materiality and everyday practices of the state from multi-scalar perspective. A qualitative case study design was employed, which was a product of 18 months of fieldwork conducted both at the national and sub-national scales. The analysis points at complexity of the processes regarding the materialization of a developmental state in the Omo Valley: on the one hand the central government increases its capacity of resource control and extraction in this periphery, within a federal republic, as “developmental state effects” and garners performance legitimacy through delivering the dam [“development”]-at least at the national scale; on the other hand increasingly an authoritarian form it takes in this process and lack of recognition of the affected peoples’ claims and their growing dispersed resistances seemingly jeopardizes its political legitimacy

Abstract:
ISUF 2017 XXIV international conference : City and territory in the globalization age. Regenerating historic Tripoli: urban form, problems and potential Mr. Almabrok Alakhal Almabrok.Alakhal@mail.bcu.ac.uk Keywords: Urban regeneration, Urban form, Changing pattern of urban form, Tripoli. Conference topics and scale : Urban morphological methods and techniques. Abstract This paper examines the impact of change, particularly Modernism, on a traditional Islamic urban core: the historic centre of Tripoli. It begins by discussing the historical background of Tripoli, identifying the key periods of urban change and growth through the evidence of historic documentation, maps, photographs and sketches. It focuses on the impact of Modernism, introduced during the Italian colonial period, identifying the nature, scale and speed of change – to the physical environment (streets, plots, buildings, land uses) and social environment (uses and occupiers). This allows the identification of key problems facing the present-day historic city. The paper then identifies examples of upgrading and urban regeneration projects for urban corridors, street networks and public spaces, drawing on local, national and international comparisons, for evaluating quality, and impact on urban form and design. Finally, it discusses the implications for future urban form. References : Development, A.D (2010), Project of rehabilitation of the old city of Tripoli, Code of the old Tripoli city.

Abstract:
The result of misunderstanding science by students is their inability as future citizens to impact science public policies. The solution argued last year included creating courses in science studies serving two purposes: destroy students’ stereotypical certainties about science and help them become “historical realists” in regard to scientific practices. But we also speculated that dismissing the myth of scientific objectivity and teaching the historical and sociological underpinnings of science might lead to turning students into epistemological relativists. We now have a solution to the social-constructivist trap stemming from studies of science. This paper inquires into American contexts such as scientific illiteracy, post-modernism in high schools and colleges, and the media, all of which help produce a generalized inability to demarcate science from pseudoscience. Science studies courses guide students into both making epistemological distinctions and understanding the nature of science. Informing methodologies, course format, and bibliography follow.

Abstract:
Tuned mass damper (TMD) device has been a popular vibration control system for moderns as high-rise building, bridge to suppress excessive vibration due to environment or human loading. Moreover, multiple tuned mass dampers have received much attention in the researched. An optimal design theory for bridge implemented with multiple TMD devices is proposed in this paper. The proposed method chooses the objective function with the constraints on the peaks which are at the same heights over frequency ranges of interest. This proposed method successfully reduces vibration of bridge traveled by a car. In a future study, we will extend the optimal design theory for the cases with more than one car and the bridge under seismic loading.

Abstract:
This paper presents the results of thermal modeling of a unique 69 kV 3000A Solid State Fault Current Limiter (SSFCL) developed by Silicon Power of Malvern, PA with support of EPRI. The development of the Solid State Fault Current Limiter is expected to modernize power distribution systems through the use of small-scale solid-state power devices. The use of this new design is expected to increase reliability and functionality while reducing footprint. However, as the footprint is reduced, the heat flux for the system is increased, leading to the significant possibility of device failure due to thermal excursions if the heat load is not properly managed. The high heat loading requires the use of aggressive thermal management in the form of liquid cooling of the electronics. This system features 288 kW of waste heat in the three phase system. The system is submerged in FR3 dielectric coolant and the desired thermal management system is liquid natural convection within the tank and shed to the ambient through an external finned array system. This project explores the feasibility of this system design.

Abstract:
The Turbine Research Facility (TRF) at the Air Force Research Laboratory has undergone a two-year effort to enhance and modernize multiple systems for advanced study of unsteady turbine aerodynamics and heat transfer. This paper provides an overview of several concurrent projects to upgrade a number of facility hardware and software systems. A unique scalable high speed, high channel count data acquisition architecture is developed with modern hardware and software that expands capability while maintaining compatibility and synchronization with legacy hardware. The combination of both new and existing channels with custom Matlab-based data acquisition and processing code provides accurate and efficient signal processing and display for over 750 high speed data channels. Codes are integrated with a new Turbine Design and Analysis System that provides design CFD modeling, optimization, and post-test analysis. The paper describes a new 1+ 1/2 stage cooled high pressure research turbine that has been designed, instrumented, and tested. Initial cooled vs. uncooled data comparisons are given including fast response unsteady airfoil pressure and heat flux. This work further describes significant modification to the TRF rotordynamic drive system. Analysis and mechanical re-design have been completed to mitigate vibration effects. Facility monitoring and control upgrades are implemented to improve test situational awareness and safety. Updated cryogenic cooling hardware and software improve cooling flow delivery to HPT airfoils, platforms, and blade outer air seals. Future work includes continued research turbine testing, industry test rig collaboration, new instrumentation technology, and advanced modeling and simulation development.

"A Methodology for the Integration of Passive System Reliability With Success Criteria in a Probabilistic Framework for Advanced Reactors." In 2016 24th International Conference on Nuclear Engineering. American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/icone24-60749.

Full text
Abstract:
GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy (GEH) and Argonne National Laboratory are currently engaged in a joint effort to modernize and develop probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) techniques for advanced non-light water reactors. At a high level, the primary outcome of this project will be the development of next-generation PRA methodologies that will enable risk-informed prioritization of safety- and reliability-focused research and development, while also identifying gaps that may be resolved through additional research. A subset of this effort is the development of PRA methodologies that can be used for the determination of passive system reliability while integrating quantitative success criteria into the risk analysis framework. An updated passive system reliability approach has been developed for utilization in the PRISM PRA that systematically characterizes the impact of passive safety systems on key success criteria. This methodology is derived from the Reliability Method for Passive Systems (RMPS), but is refined to explicitly include consideration of overall mission success through satisfaction of success criteria, rather than only focusing on the passive system itself. This paper provides details on the integrated methodology, focusing on the interface between passive system reliability and success criteria. Specific examples for the passive systems/features of interest, RVACS and inherent reactivity feedback, are included. Additionally, aspects of the integrated passive system and success criteria methodology as they relate to the ASME/ANS Non-LWR PRA Standard are identified and discussed.

Lin, Zhongjie. "Vertical Urbanism: Re-conceptualizing the Compact City." In 2016 ACSA International Conference. ACSA Press, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.35483/acsa.intl.2016.26.

Full text
Abstract:
Although the term “compact city” appears frequently in academic accounts on sustainable urbanism as well as in professional descriptions of planning projects, it is often used in a general manner to indicate such ideas as high density, mixed uses, walkability, and transit oriented development, all linking to the common principles of New Urbanism. Unfortunately this misses some important points, as the concept of compact city possesses the power to generate dynamic urban forms, utilize cutting-edge technologies, address pressing environmental issues, and respond to distinctive geographical and cultural contexts, thus challenging conventional notions of urbanism. The awareness of the limitations of the current practice leads to the introduction of Vertical Urbanism as an alternative discourse on the compact city responding proactively to the state of contemporary metropolises characterized by density, complexity, and verticality. The reinvented concept of Vertical Urbanism moves away from the Modernist notion promoting tall buildings as dominant urban typology to explore physically interactive and socially engaged forms addressing the city as a multi-layered and multi-dimensioned organism. Informed by complex systems ranging from underground mass transit to futuristic ecology of vertical urban farm, this experimental urban design approach envisions a holistic organization of infrastructure, space, and ecology ina three-dimensional framework. This paper derives from a series of urban design research studios under the common theme of Vertical Urbanism conducted in four different cities in the United States and China during 2010-2014 and recently shifted to Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. These studio stook on various sites and design questions such as urban infrastructure, transit system, and urban waterfront redevelopments, testing the concept in different geographic and cultural settings. Sensitivity to locality in both ecological and cultural terms was emphasized across these studios although the schemes often engaged speculative and innovative modes of design production. This paper examines a number of issues around the urban design approach of Vertical Urbanism, including the drive for density and vitality, the relationship between horizontal and vertical dimensions, space of flow and scalar shift, as well as ecological and social adaptability of mega forms; but above all, it tries to explore the capacity of global urban tactics in providing localized design solutions.

Abstract:
ASME Nuclear Codes and Standards are used worldwide in the construction, inspection, and repair of commercial nuclear power plants. As the industry looks to the future of nuclear power and some of the new plant designs under development, there will be some significant departures from the current light water reactor (LWR) technology. Some examples are gas-cooled and liquid metal-cooled high temperature reactors (HTRs), small modular reactors (SMRs), and fusion energy devices that are currently under development. Many of these designs will have different safety challenges from the current LWR fleet. Variations of the current LWR technology are also expected to remain in use for the foreseeable future. Worldwide, many LWRs are planned or are already under construction. However, technology for construction of these plants has advanced considerably since most of the current construction codes were written. As a result, many modern design and fabrication methods available today, which provide both safety and economic benefits, cannot be fully utilized since they are not addressed by Code rules. For ASME Nuclear Codes and Standards to maintain and enhance their position as the worldwide leader in the nuclear power industry, they will need to be modernized to address these items. Accordingly, the ASME Nuclear Codes and Standards organizations have initiated the “2025 Nuclear Code” initiative. The purpose of this initiative is to modernize all aspects of ASME’s Nuclear Codes and Standards to adopt new technologies in plant design, construction, and life cycle management. Examples include modernized finite element analysis and fatigue rules, and incorporation of probabilistic and risk-informed methodology. This paper will present the vision for the 2025 ASME Nuclear Codes and Standards and will discuss some of the key elements that are being considered.

Full text
Abstract:
Turbine blades with radial fasteners (T-shank, radial fir-tree, etc.) are commonly used in current steam turbomachinery, especially in power generation applications. However, this reliable and cost-effective design is limited by the strength of the axial pins which lock the closing part in the radial entry slot in the disc. In applications with high speed rotors or heavy blades, the centrifugal force of the blade exceeds the pin strength. In those applications, the airfoil portion of the closing blade is cut off leaving only the bottom portion which is located in the radial entry slot. Some original equipment manufactures (OEMs) also remove the airfoil of the blade 180 degrees opposite for better balancing. The absence of two airfoils is detrimental to efficiency and reliability of the entire row. Siemens Demag Delaval Turbomachinery, Inc. (SDDTI) developed a new locking arrangement which eliminates the above described shortcoming associated with standard radial entry blades. This paper presents the design of the new patented locking arrangement and mechanical stress calculations (FEA) of its major components. In order to verify the validity of the design and calculations, a full-scale row of modernized radial entry blades for an existing US Navy turbine with the new locking arrangement was tested. The testing was done over the full range of operating speeds in a vacuum bunker. The paper also describes the special test rotor, instrumentation used, and the test results which were compared with the stress calculations. The tests confirmed all the advantages of the new locking arrangement and showed acceptable correlation with the stress calculations. The patented design will expand applications for radial entry blades, modernize radial entry blades with missing blade airfoils, and provide a cost-effective method to repair localized cracks in the fastener area of the turbine discs.
