Abstract:
Dorothy Drummond's book was born at the dawn of the third millennium,when the author was in Jerusalem. She had taken notes throughout hertravels in the Holy Land, which she defines not only as the land of historicPalestine, but also the lands of present-day Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Iraq,and Egypt (i.e., where the Patriarchs, Prophets, and the Holy Familyroamed). Rather than write a travelogue, she decided to write a book aboutthe Arab-Israeli conflict while interspersing her personal comments (initalics) about her journeys. Her intent is not to "answer the question posedin the title of this book. Rather, by shedding light on dark corners, itattempts to bring understanding," as she explains in the prologue.The book is divided into three parts: a discussion of the IsraeliPalestinianconflict in the present, a discussion of the roots of the conflicttraveling 4,000 years into the past, and a brief discussion of how negotiationis the only way to resolve the conflict. There are maps and pho tographsthroughout the book, as well as a 40-page glossary of the HolyLand's people and places. Drummond has written the work in the presenttense, because of the immediacy of all that has happened in the MiddleEast, but the discussion ultimately centers on the area between theMediterranean Sea and the Jordan River.Her book promises to be a good, balanced account written in a wonwonderfullyaccessible style. However, early on it runs into problems. Forexample, when she talks about the 1956 Israeli attack on Egypt, she fails ...

Abstract:
In the fourth and early fifth centuries Christians laid claim to the land of Palestine. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the investment of the land of Palestine and its places with Christian historical and cultural meanings, and to trace its remapping as the “holy land.” This map was not a figurative representation of geographical and cultural features; as with all maps, it was an idea. The Christian “holy land” is also an idea, one which did not exist at the beginning of the fourth century, but which, by the mid-fifth century, was a place constructed of a rich texture of places, beliefs, actions, and texts, based in the notion that the landscape provided evidence of biblical truths. When Constantine became a Christian, there was no “holy land”; however, over the succeeding one hundred and thirty years Christians marked and identified many of their holy places in Palestine. The map-makers in this transformation were emperors, bishops, monastics, holy women, and pilgrims who claimed the holy places for Christianity, constructing the land as topographically Christian and mediating this view of their world through their pilgrim paths, buildings, liturgies, and texts. The idea of mapping is used here as an aid to understanding the formation of cultural viewpoints and the validation of ideas and actions that informed the construction of the “holy land.”

Abstract:
Silence, Seigneurs, and hold your peace if you want to hear a glorious song. No jongleur can speak of a higher theme … my song is of the Holy City - may she be praised - where God allowed himself to be tortured and crucified, even suffering the lance and blows and wounds. Jerusalem, such is her name.The opening laisse of the Old French Chanson d’Antioche, which focuses on the Holy Land as the scene of Christ’s Passion, promises to address the theme of this volume very directly. How far is that promise fulfilled? The purpose of the examination which follows is to look at the image of Jerusalem in the Chanson and the attraction of the Holy Land to the poem’s audience: this will entail a consideration of the ideas of pilgrimage and crusade. Aspects of popular religion – visions and miracles, for example – will be identified. It will be seen that the role played by the clergy in promoting, explaining, and especially participating in the expedition is crucial to the text.

Abstract:
Holy Land is an approximately 13 minute long three movement work fororchestra and choir. It is essentially a large scale ternary form, with eachmovement comprising one part of the form. The work is inspired by thecomposer’s experience of growing up in Southern Illinois and by the presenceand influence of religion in the region, to which the title is a sarcastic reference.The first movement of the work, Golden Age, represents the simplicity andinnocence of childhood, and is characterized by long sustained harmonies and aprimarily homophonic texture. The second movement, Seeker of Truth, containsa setting of the E.E. Cummings poem of the same name, and represents anemotionally turbulent adolescence, characterized by fast, perpetual rhythms anda primarily contrapuntal texture. The third movement, A Better Resurrection,contains a setting of an excerpt of the Christina Rossetti poem of the samename, and represents a nihilism-tinged adulthood, with a return to musicalmaterial similar to that of the first movement.

Mylod, Elizabeth Jane. "Latin Christian pilgrimage in the Holy Land, 1187-1291." Thesis, University of Leeds, 2013. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/5880/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis discusses the practice and sites of Latin Christian pilgrimage in the Holy Land during the period between the capture of Jerusalem by Saladin, sultan of Egypt and Damascus, in 1187, and the end of the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem in 1291 following the capture of Acre by al-Ashraf Khalīl, the Mamlūk sultan. It demonstrates how pilgrimage of this period changed from pre-1187 practices, and discusses how pilgrimage developed from 1187 to 1291 under the influence of a continued Frankish political presence in the Holy Land which did not extend to control over most of the holy sites. It investigates this through an analysis of both the texts written by and for pilgrims at this time, and a variety of other documentary and chronicle source material. It concludes that Holy Land pilgrimage had a different character to that practised during the period 1099 to 1187 due to: 1) changing access to holy sites as a result of raiding and treaties, in some cases causing complete breaks with earlier tradition; 2) Islamic political control of holy sites; and 3) interaction with non-Latin Christians. Many of the unique aspects of Holy Land pilgrimage, with its dearth of healing shrines and indulgences, focus on the New Testament and the life of Christ, and large number of holy associations in a small area, remained unchanged, but the details of where pilgrims went and the balance of site-types visited was modified. Pilgrims visited a broader range of sites, most of which were shared with Greek and Eastern Christians, and some of which were shared with non-Christians. The geography of several sites changed, and they began to be identified with other locations. New holy sites were visited for the first time, while the area within the walls of Jerusalem was harder to visit than ever. Overall, the thesis demonstrates that Latin Christian holy sites and pilgrimage traditions in the Holy Land were not static, and continued to develop and change into the fourteenth century.

Abstract:
This study is a comprehensive analysis of the Teutonic Knights in the Holy Land. It discusses their early development and their rising importance in the Latin East. It explores the strong connection between the order's growth and the enthusiasm of the Gennan nobility for crusading to the Holy Land. Within this the brethren's relationship to the empire and the papacy at this time is examined closely. Crucially, this thesis seeks to nuance the current contention that the order was merely an expression of the emperor's Mediterranean policies and demonstrate that its intentions, like its interests, lay in the defence of Christendom, not in the wars ofthe papacy and empire. Over time the order acquired major territorial holdings in Livonia and Prussia and the effect of these growing military and financial commitments upon its Levantine branch is examined to show the way in which defeats and opportunities on these northern frontiers could impact upon the Levant. Within the Latin East itself, the order's relationship with the lay and ecclesiastical hierarchies is analysed to evaluate their contribution to the local politics of the Holy Land. Furthennore, the brethren's role in the Eastern Mediterranean is continually contrasted with that of the Templars and Hospitallers to highlight the similarities and differences between their institution and these older orders. Internally, the order's system of control and organisation is examined to discuss how effectively the institution overcame the challenges of its geographically dispersed commitments and how factions within the order, which advocated the needs ofeach separate frontier, affected its general policy. In short, this is a detailed study of the Teutonic Knights in the Holy Land which places both their military and internal affairs in the context of their responsibilities in the Baltic and the wider poli~ics of the medieval world.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the existence of a region for Islamicjerusalem and its extents throughout Muslim centuries.  The initial cause of the study is the neglect of the concept of the region that was once popular in the early Muslim periods and also the vanishing of knowledge on the extent of the region in later centuries. The Study examines critically both direct and general accounts referring to a region for Islamicjerusalem from the early Muslim period.  It also distinguishes this region from the administrative political districts that existed alongside this region. Rather it equates its extent with the religious extents of the sacred regions of Makkah and Madinah. The study goes further to discuss the wider framework in which the region of Islamicjerusalem is situated; this investigates the geographical extent of another two entities, the Holy Land and the Land of Barakah, which Islamicjerusalem is a central part of.  These have also been subjected to much misunderstanding and distortion. Another aspect of this research is the detailed survey of Muslim literature and their reference to the names of Islamicjerusalem.  This clearly reflected a wide spectrum of usage for the names in the different connotations referring to the mosque, city and region. This is besides initiation of new terms such as Ard and Bilad to be placed before the name of the city when referring to the region. The Study clearly sets out that the region of Islamicjerusalem is an essential part of the Qur’anic and Prophetic terminologies.  It lies at the heart of the Land of Barakah and has almost identical extents with the Holy Land.

Today the Malay language is known to have communities of speakers outside the Malay archipelago, such as in Australia inclusive of the Christmas Islands and the Cocos (Keeling) Islands in the Indian Ocean (Asmah, 2008), the Holy Land of Mecca and Medina (Asmah et al. 2015), England, the Netherlands, France, and Germany. The Malay language is also known to have its presence on the Asian mainland, i.e. Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam. As Malays in these three countries belong to a minority, in fact among the smallest of the minorities, questions that arise are those that pertain to: (i) their history of settlement in the localities where they are now; (ii) the position of Malay in the context of the language policy of their country; and (iii) maintenance and shift of the ancestral and adopted languages.

Abstract:
Tunisian fortifications disputed between Spaniards and Turks in the mid-sixteenth century, documented by coeval iconography. An analysis from the territory to the architectureThe five volumes of the precious archival collection of drawings called Architettura Militare (Military Architecture), kept at the Archivio di Stato di Torino (Turin State Archive), propose documents made mostly by military engineers from the half of the sixteenth to the following first decade. The tomes collect mostly drawings of places under the aegis of the Duchy of Savoy, apart from the second one, dedicated to documents of Spanish military interest (Mediterranean Sea and Lombardy maps). As I pointed out at Fortmed Convention 2018, the reason why these documents are kept at the Turin State Archives is because of their belonging to Catherine of Aragon, daughter of the Spanish king and wife of Carlo Emanuele I di Savoia. In the volume Architettura Militare II (Military Architecture II) 26 tables, all datable from 1522 (Rhodes) to 1596 (Cadiz), concern territories, walled cities and fortifications, of islands and Mediterranean coasts, disputed by Christians and Turks for the supremacy on the sea. In the previous study I had examined drawings about Egypt, eastern Ottoman territories and Holy Land coasts, Spanish possessions as Perpignan and Cadiz bay. In this new study instead, I would like to examine in depth the iconography about Tunisia. Those drawings, so different from each other for scale and graphic quality, document those phases in which the Spanish control is characterized by alternate situations: the Iberian presidio dates back to 1535, reconquered by Ottomans in 1570, it is taken back in three years by Christians who keep it until 1574 only, when the whole Tunisian territory, precious bastion for the control of routes and trades, definitely returns in the hands of the Turks.

Full text
Abstract:
The honeycomb seal shows promising characteristics in many turbine machines for the leakage control and rotor stability enhancement. However, the cost of honeycomb seal is relative high due to its complexities in manufacture and installation process. The hole-pattern seal has a very close leakage and rotordynamic performance with honeycomb seal, and also the manufacture and installation of hole-pattern seal are easier than the honeycomb seal, which attract the researchers and designers in recent years. In the published literature, there have been many papers dealt with the rotordynamic coefficients measurements, but very few researchers concentrated on the leakage control performance for the labyrinth seal with hole-pattern land. In this paper, the experimental tests were carried out to obtain the leakage rates versus pressure ratios at four clearances for the straight-through labyrinth seal with smooth stator, straight-through labyrinth seal with hole-pattern stator, stepped labyrinth seal with smooth stator and the stepped labyrinth seal with hole-pattern stator. The flow fields in the seal chambers were also visualized at different clearances and pressure ratios. Moreover, the CFD tool was also implemented to predict the leakage performance in labyrinth seals, and the numerical results were compared with the measurements. The results show that, the stepped labyrinth seal with hole-pattern land performs better leakage control characteristic than the straight-through labyrinth seal with hole-pattern land, and the stepped labyrinth seal with smooth land performs better leakage control than the straight through labyrinth seal with smooth land. For the stepped labyrinth seal, holes in the stator increase the effective clearance thus increase the leakage rate in seal. However, the straight-through labyrinth seal with hole-pattern land almost has the identical leakage performance with the smooth configuration.

Full text
Abstract:
The present study investigates the local heat (mass) transfer characteristics of flow through perforated plates. Two parallel perforated plates placed, relative to each other, in either staggered, in-line or shifted in one direction. Hole length to diameter ratio of 1.5, hole pitch to diameter ratio of 3.0, and distance between the perforated plates of 1 to 3 hole diameters are used at hole Reynolds numbers of 3,000 to 14,000. For flows through the staggered layers and the layers shifted in one direction, the mass transfer rates on the windward surface of the second wall increase approximately 50% from impingement cooling alone and are about three to four times that with effusion cooling alone (single perforated plate). The high transfer rate is induced by strong secondary vortices formed between two adjacent impinging jets that are accelerated by the effusion flow. The overall transfer rate is dominated by the target (second) surface (approximately 50%) instead of the inside hole surface that is dominant with a single plate case. The transfer coefficient for the in-line layers is approximately 100% higher on the windward surface of the second wall than that of the single plate case. The transfer coefficient on the leeward surface for the second plate is affected little by upstream flow conditions.

Hammack, E., and Morgan Johnston. Three-dimensional numerical model study of flow near a scour hole in Isle of Wight Bay near Ocean City, Maryland. Engineer Research and Development Center (U.S.), April 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.21079/11681/43921.

Abstract:
A scour hole has developed in Isle of Wight Bay near Ocean City, MD. This hole could grow to the point that nearby land developments are threatened, so channel-bed protection measures may be implemented near this scour hole. Appropriately designing those bed protection measures requires knowledge of the flow behavior in the scour hole, so a three-dimensional model study has been conducted to determine the flow behavior at the extreme flood and ebb tides present during a pre-selected month of tide cycles. Steady-state simulations of the flows during those two tide conditions have been completed. Contour plots of the flow velocity near the bed and the corresponding bed shear stresses are provided as input for the design of the bed protection measures.

Abstract:
The Greater Yellowstone Area (GYA) is one of the last remaining large and nearly intact temperate ecosystems on Earth (Reese 1984; NPSa undated). GYA was originally defined in the 1970s as the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, which encompassed the minimum range of the grizzly bear (Schullery 1992). The boundary was enlarged through time and now includes about 22 million acres (8.9 million ha) in northwestern Wyoming, south central Montana, and eastern Idaho. Two national parks, five national forests, three wildlife refuges, 20 counties, and state and private lands lie within the GYA boundary. GYA also includes the Wind River Indian Reservation, but the region is the historical home to several Tribal Nations. Federal lands managed by the US Forest Service, the National Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management, and the US Fish and Wildlife Service amount to about 64% (15.5 million acres [6.27 million ha] or 24,200 square miles [62,700 km2]) of the land within the GYA. The federal lands and their associated wildlife, geologic wonders, and recreational opportunities are considered the GYA’s most valuable economic asset. GYA, and especially the national parks, have long been a place for important scientific discoveries, an inspiration for creativity, and an important national and international stage for fundamental discussions about the interactions of humans and nature (e.g., Keiter and Boyce 1991; Pritchard 1999; Schullery 2004; Quammen 2016). Yellowstone National Park, established in 1872 as the world’s first national park, is the heart of the GYA. Grand Teton National Park, created in 1929 and expanded to its present size in 1950, is located south of Yellowstone National Park1 and is dominated by the rugged Teton Range rising from the valley of Jackson Hole. The Gallatin-Custer, Shoshone, Bridger-Teton, Caribou-Targhee, and Beaverhead-Deerlodge national forests encircle the two national parks and include the highest mountain ranges in the region. The National Elk Refuge, Red Rock Lakes National Wildlife Refuge, and Grays Lake National Wildlife Refuge also lie within GYA.

Simms, Janet, Benjamin Breland, and William Doll. Geophysical investigation to assess condition of grouted scour hole : Old River Control Complex—Low Sill Concordia Parish, Louisiana. Engineer Research and Development Center (U.S.), September 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.21079/11681/41863.

Full text
Abstract:
Geophysical surveys, both land-based and water-borne, were conducted at the Old River Control Complex‒Low Sill, Concordia Parish, LA. The purpose of the surveys was to assess the condition of the grout within the scour region resulting from the 1973 flood event, including identification of potential voids within the grout. Information from the ground studies will also be used for calibration of subsequent marine geophysical data and used in stability analysis studies. The water-borne survey consisted of towed low frequency (16-80 MHz) ground penetrating radar (GPR), whereas the land-based surveys used electrical resistivity and seismic refraction. The GPR survey was conducted in the Old River Channel on the upstream side of the Low Sill structure. The high electrical conductivity of the water (~50 mS/m) precluded penetration of the GPR signal; thus, no useful data were obtained. The land-based surveys were performed on both northeast and southeast sides of the Low Sill structure. Both resistivity and seismic surveys identify a layered subsurface stratigraphy that corresponds, in general, with available borehole data and constructed geologic profiles. In addition, an anomalous area on the southeast side was identified that warrants future investigation and monitoring.

Coyner, Kelley, and Jason Bittner. Automated Vehicles and Infrastructure Enablers. SAE International, March 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.4271/epr2022008.

Full text
Abstract:
Manufacturers and developers of automated vehicles (AVs) often maintain that no new infrastructure enablers are needed to achieve full AV deployment aside from existing infrastructure investments (e.g., connected traffic signals, designated stops, booking software, mobile applications, separated lanes). These groups hold that a state-of-good-repair and clean lane markings are sufficient; however, much of the US receives poor grades when it comes to these features. What do infrastructure owners and operators need to know about what constitutes effective lane markings or what to prioritize in terms of safety and mobility? How do policy considerations effect these choices? Automated Vehicles and Infrastructure Enablers the first in a series on AVs and infrastructure—considers ways in which infrastructure can speed or delay deployment, mitigate hazards, and capture benefits related to AV roll-out. Some of these benefits include accessibility, safety, reduced climate impacts, and integrated supply chain logistics.

Kadlec, Amanda. Still Kicking: the Survivability of the Islamic State in Libya. RESOLVE Network, December 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.37805/pn2020.10.ssa.

Full text
Abstract:
Since emerging in eastern Libya in 2014, ISIS laid claim to wilayat within Libya’s three regional provinces—Tripolitania, Barqa, and Fezzan—moving fast to establish a quasi-state in the coastal city of Sirte and amassing just a few thousand fighters at its peak strength. Yet, just as ISIS core’s territorial hold in Syria and Iraq withered, its strength in Libya also soon diminished. Sustained domestic and international counterterrorism efforts have severely depleted ISIS in Libya’s (ISIS-L) numbers, operational capacity, and opportunity for safe haven. However, while weakened, ISIS-L’s survivability is driven by a far more complex range of factors than just Libya’s domestic unrest. The apex of ISIS-L’s power from 2014 to 2016 may have been brief, and its current threat low, but the group’s damage to Libya lingers, and the potential for its continued periodic revival should not be understated. For those seeking to counter and address ISIS-L’s continued presence in Libya, understanding the factors that simultaneously facilitate and hamper the group’s operations and growth is paramount to crafting appropriate interventions.

Who Owns the World's Land? A global baseline of formally recognized indigenous and community land rights. Rights and Resources Initiative, September 2015. http://dx.doi.org/10.53892/nxfo7501.

Full text
Abstract:
The first analysis to quantify the amount of land formally recognized by national governments as owned or controlled by Indigenous Peoples and local communities around the world. Ownership of the world’s rural lands and natural resources is a major source of contestation around the globe, affecting prospects for rural economic development, human rights and dignity, cultural survival, environmental conservation, and efforts to combat climate change. Communities are estimated to hold as much as 65 percent of the world’s land area through customary, community-based tenure systems. However, national governments only recognize formal, legal rights of Indigenous Peoples and local communities to a fraction of these lands. Some countries are in the process of recognizing communities’ rights, and estimates from those countries provide some indication of the size of these gaps in recognition. As demands for land tenure reform increase and national processes to recognize land rights advance, this report provides a baseline that documents the current status of formal, statutory recognition of community-based tenure.

Significance of Community-Held Territories in 24 Countries to Global Climate. Rights and Resources Initiative, November 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.53892/ybgf2711.

Full text
Abstract:
This research provides a timely reminder of the global significance of community-held lands and territories; their importance for the protection, restoration, and sustainable use of tropical forestlands across the world; and the critical gaps in the international development architecture that have so far undermined progress towards the legal recognition of such lands and territories. Our findings indicate that Indigenous Peoples, Afro-Descendant Peoples, and local communities customarily hold and use at least 958 million hectares (mha) of land in the 24 reviewed countries but have legally recognized rights to less than half of this area (447 mha). Their lands are estimated to store at least 253.5 Gigatons of Carbon (GtC), playing a vital role in the maintenance of globally significant greenhouse gas sinks and reservoirs. However, the majority of this carbon (52 percent, or 130.6 GtC) is stored in community-held lands and territories that have yet to be legally recognized.
