Abstract:
‘Galaxy Metabolism' was the second in the annual ‘Southern Cross Astrophysics Conference Series’ (http://www.aao.gov.au/AAO/southerncross/), supported by the Anglo-Australian Observatory and the Australia Telescope National Facility. It was held at the Australian National Maritime Museum in Darling Harbour, Sydney, from 22 to 26 June 2009, and was attended by 91 delegates from around the world.Over the past decade, both the star formation history and stellar mass density in galaxies spanning most of cosmic history have been well constrained. This provides the backdrop and framework within which many detailed investigations of galaxy growth are now placed. The mass-dependent and environment-dependent evolution of galaxies over cosmic history is now the focus of several surveys. Many studies are also exploring the role of gas infall and outflow in driving galaxy evolution, and the connection of these processes to massive star formation within galaxies.The aims of ‘Galaxy Metabolism’ were to bring together the global constraints on galaxy evolution, at both low and high redshift, with detailed studies of well-resolved systems, to define a clear picture of our understanding of galaxy metabolism: How do the processes of ingestion (infall), digestion (ISM physics, star formation) and excretion (outflow) govern the global properties of galaxies; how do these change over a galaxy's lifetime; and are the constraints from nearby well resolved studies consistent with those from large population surveys at low and high redshift?The conference was a great success, with an extensive variety of topics covered spanning many aspects of galaxy evolution, and brought together eloquently in a comprehensive conference summary by Warrick Couch. The four papers by De Lucia (2010), Cole (2010), Vlajić (2010) and Stocke et al. (2010) presented in this special collection of PASA are just a sampling of the depth and variety of the resentations given during the conference.

Abstract:
This dissertation investigates the technology for storage and access to data in museums, focusing on requirements for collections management and the information needs of visitors. The various components of museum information systems, including data structures and terminology, recording media, computer software and hardware, manual systems, and management procedures are comprehensively examined through case studies at the National Maritime and Science Museums. The first case study describes and assesses manual and computer based techniques developed for the storage and retrieval of records in the Archaeological Research Centre at the UK National Maritime Museum. The types of data which the system encompasses were derived from a wide range of sources, including both land based and underwater fieldwork; archaeological, historical and ethnographic research; routine curatorial activities, including conservation; and research into the conservation of waterlogged materials. Further aspects considered included the collection of data in the field, and the development of a framework on which the analysis of boat finds could be based. Archaeological and museum record keeping, and contemporary developments in computer technology are reviewed. The design, development and use of the system are described, and the system is assessed against the initial specification and in the light of users' experience. The second case study builds on the experience of the first, and examines the requirements for a visitor information system at the Science Museum in London.Sources which are used include an analysis of overall visitor needs, specific requirements for object based information and public interest in information as exhibited through the use of the Museum's World Wide Web pages. Building on these studies and the experience of other museums providing such a facility, a model system is outlined, including visitor orientation and information points within the Museum and external access to information.The data requirements of this system are tested against the types of information which are already available in the museum. An overall approach to designing the system is described. In conclusion a comparison is made between the information requirements for collection management and visitor information. Technological issues including data structures and database design are reviewed, and the costs of various options are considered.

Abstract:
Figurant parmi les grands musées nationaux, le musée de la Marine est le plus ancien musée d’histoire maritime en France, dont les origines remontent au milieu du XVIIIe siècle. Fondé à partir de la collection de modèles de bateaux donnée au roi Louis XV par l’académicien Henri Louis Duhamel du Monceau en 1748, le musée Dauphin ouvre au Louvre en 1827 sous Charles X, à destination avant tout des élèves de l’école d’ingénieurs constructeurs de la Marine dans une finalité d’instruction. L’approche monographique et institutionnelle permet de mettre en évidence trois grands moments de l’histoire de ce musée : la lente genèse du musée naval (1748-1827) dans le contexte des Lumières et d’une culture scientifique et technique ; la longue période du musée naval au palais du Louvre (1827-1939) au cours de laquelle se forge l’identité de l’institution autour de collections techniques et ethnographiques à vocation pédagogique ; le transfert du musée au palais de Chaillot et son expansion au XXe siècle avec la modernisation du site parisien, l’extension de ses collections aux cinq marines et la constitution d’un réseau des musées des ports (1939-1971). Devenu établissement public administratif en 1971, le musée national de la Marine se transforme à la fin du XXe siècle pour devenir le grand musée maritime du XXIe siècle. Cette étude s’attache à cerner les enjeux sociaux, culturels et idéologiques qui ont présidé à la création et au développement de ce musée, à interroger le statut de ses collections, entre technique, art et instrument de propagande ou de communication, et enfin à analyser la question plus large du rôle du musée dans la société française, d’un lieu de représentation du pouvoir à un espace au service du public
One of the major national museums, The Marine Museum is the oldest museum of maritime history in France, whose origins date back to the mid-eighteenth century. Founded from the collection of boat models given to king Louis XV by the Academician Henri Louis Duhamel du Monceau in 1748, the Dauphin Museum (as it was called) opened in the Louvre in 1827 under the reign of Charles X ; primarily intended for teaching purposes to the construction engineers of the Navy. The monographic and institutioal approach highlights three major moments in the history of this museum : the slow genesis of the naval museum (1748-1827) in the context of the Enlightenment and of the development of scientific and technical culture ; the long period of the naval museum at the Louvre Palace (1827-1939), during which the identity of the institution is based on technical and ethnographic collections for educational purposes ; the transfer of the museum to the Palais de Chaillot and its expansion in the 20th century with the modernization of the Paris site, the extension of its collections to the five Navies and the creation of a network of port museums (1939-1971). Having become a public administrative institution in 1971, the National Marine Museum was transformed at the end of the 20th century into the great maritime museum of the 21st century, as it is now. This study seeks to identify the social, cultural and ideological issues that led to the creation and the development of this museum, to question the status of its collections, between technique, art and propaganda or communication instrument, and finally, to analyze the broader question of the museum's role in French society, from a place of representation of power to a space in the service of the public

Abstract:
The National Museum of Australia (NMA) (1997- 2001) by architects Ashton Raggatt McDougall (ARM) in association with Robert Peck von Hartel Trethowan was commissioned by the Australian Commonwealth Government for the Centenary of Federation in 2001. It was conceived as a gift to the people of Australia and now stands on Acton Peninsula in Canberra, the nation's Capital. It is a visually complex manifestation of the design architects' (ARM) dialogue with the ambiguities of Australian history and national identity. The architectural realisation of these complexities was facilitated through advances in computer technologies and a complementary non-traditional procurement method, both at the leading edge of Australian architectural practice of the time. Completed three years earlier was probably the most debated work of architecture of the 1990s, the Guggenheim Museum (GMB) (1991-98) in Bilbao, Spain, by Frank O. Gehry and Associates (FOG&A). This satellite museum of the Guggenheim Foundation of New York was heralded as the quintessential example of a kind of architecture only possible because of advances in computer technologies. Both visually complex museums were conceived as flagship projects and consequently share many political, functional, and cultural expectations. Both were procured outside the usual adversarial designer/builder paradigm of western architecture and featured the innovative use of three-dimensional (CAD) software for design, documentation and analysis. The NMA project used a government instigated procurement method which was embraced by a group of design and construction companies who formed a joint venture known as the Acton Peninsula Alliance. This non-traditional or relationship-based procurement method required ARM to reassess their approach to generate and disseminate design data and their traditional relationship with other design and construction professionals. As part of this process, ARM were required to devolve some of their design authority to a project delivery team via a Design Integrity Panel and an Independent Quality Panel; both innovations integral to the Acton Peninsula Alliance. The NMA project reframed many of the enduring professional relationships of Australian architecture and in so doing extended the skill set and expectations of the architects and others to include a more substantial engagement with 3D CAD and a procurement system which was less subject to many of the common impediments inherent in the more traditional processes. Through a series of interviews with the architects and other stakeholders, a qualitative methodology was used to investigate the NMA as a case study which uses the GMB as an internationally recognised comparison. This thesis examines how these two projects have been successfully completed within time and budgetary constraints in an environment where flagship projects have had a history of highly publicised difficulties. It reveals that the successful realisation of the NMA was due to the relationships built or reframed as a result of this cooperative approach in conjunction with high levels of engagement with computer technologies. This is in contrast to the seamless flow of data and high levels of prefabrication integral to the success of the GMB.

Full text
Abstract:
Rigorous deepwater wave-basin tests for a series of reduced (1/80) scale model compliant buoyant towers (CBT) have recently been conducted in the Deep-Sea Basin at the National Maritime Research Institute (NMRI) in Tokyo, Japan. The models have been designed to comply with the theoretical conditions of the hydro-elastic similitude. The models are based on a conceptual prototype CBT design suited for the Vincent Field situated on the North West Shelf of Western Australia. The research has been funded by the Australian Research Council. Three parameters, namely, seabed stiffness, additional buoyancy and platform payload, were varied to investigate how each influence the performance of the CBT. Only one portion of the tests conducted at the NMRI is reported here. These include results and findings from free decay and load-deflection tests that were performed to achieve the structure’s natural periods, modal dampening factors and the tower’s global stiffness. These dynamic characteristics and responses obtained from the tests are compared with their finite element analysis (FEA) counterpart.

Abstract:
Description Ballarat sits on Wathaurong land and is located at the crossroads of four main Victorian highways. A number of State agencies are located here to support and build entrepreneurial activity in the region. The Ballarat Technology Park, located some way out of the heart of the city at the Mount Helen campus of Federation University, is an attempt to expand and diversify the technology and innovation sector in the region. This university also has a high profile presence in the city occupying part of a historically endowed precinct in the city centre. Because of the wise preservation and maintenance of its heritage listed buildings by the local council, Ballarat has been used as the location for a significant set of feature films, documentaries and television series bringing work to local crews and suppliers. With numerous festivals playing to the cities strengths many creative embeddeds and performing artists take advantage of employment in facilities such as the Museum of Australian Democracy at Eureka. The city has its share of start-ups, as well as advertising, design and architectural firms. The city is noted for its museums, its many theatres and art galleries. All major national networks service the TV and radio sector here while community radio is strong and growing.

Full text
Abstract:
An archaeological site report of an excavation of the Empress Place site in Singapore. Empress Place was the fourth site excavated in Singapore, and the first and so far the only ancient site located directly on the Singapore River’s bank. The opportunity to investigate this site arose when it was decided to convert the Empress Place Building into a permanent Asian Civilisations Museum under the National Heritage Board. The project began in January 1998, during the rainy season and the excavation was completed in May the same year. Empress Place was occupied during the 14th through 16th centuries CE. A wide variety of Chinese porcelain from the Ming Dynasty is quite plentiful at Empress Place. This is significant in view of the rarity of Chinese porcelain from the 15th century CE outside of China. Artifacts from Vietnam, Thailand, Java, Borneo, the Philippines, China, and Persia are consistent with the description of EMP as a site where goods from much of maritime Asia were loaded, unloaded, and transhipped.

Full text
Abstract:
Professor Leslie R. Marchant was a Western Australian historian of international renown. Richly educated as a child in political philosophy and critical reason, Marchant’s understandings of western political philosophies were deepened in World War Two when serving with an international crew of the merchant navy. After the war’s end, Marchant was appointed as a Protector of Aborigines in Western Australia’s Depart of Native Affairs. His passionate belief in Enlightenment ideals, including the equality of all people, was challenged by his experiences as a Protector. Leaving that role, he commenced his studies at The University of Western Australia where, in 1952, his Honours thesis made an early case that genocide had been committed in the administration of Aboriginal people in Western Australia. In the years that followed, Marchant became an early researcher of modern China and its relationship with the West, and won respect for his archival research of French maritime history in the Asia-Pacific. This work, including the publication of France Australe in 1982, was later recognised with the award of a French knighthood, the Chevalier d’Ordre National du Mèrite, and his election as a fellow to the Royal Geographical Society. In this festschrift, scholars from The University of Notre Dame Australia appraise Marchant’s work in such areas as Aboriginal history and policy, Westminster traditions, political philosophy, Australia and China and French maritime history.
