Developmental growth, change, and architectural character of an Ohio River town from 1816 to 1966 : New Albany, Indiana, a case studyBruckman, Deborah L. January 1997 (has links)
This study has presented a comprehensive study on the growth, change, and architectural character of an Ohio River town between 1816 and 1996 using New Albany, Indiana as a case study. The evidence suggest that the majority of New Albany's physical growth occurred between 1838 and 1859, and also between 1953 and 1977. The economy of New Albany transformed several times through the course of its existence. New Albany was first supported by the ship building industry. Many boat manufacturers established ship yards along the banks of the Ohio River in New Albany. The ship building industry in New Albany became non-existent in the early 1970s. The glassmaking industry that replaced the ship building industry was also located along the banks , of the Ohio River.The early twentieth century and the closure of the glass-making industry began a transformation of the location of industries in New Albany. When hardwood companies established plants in New Albany, several were attracted to the undeveloped, flat land in the northeastern fringe of the city. This process of development in the north and northeastern section of the city still continues today.The architectural character that was established in New Albany in the late 1800s remained until the early 1960s and urban renewal. Many historic structures in New Albany were demolished in the 1960s and early 1970s. Much of New Albany's architectural character today was constructed during that period. However, New Albany still retains several historic buildings, and increased preservation efforts has lead to the rehabilitation of many of them. / Department of Architecture

Environmental pathway analysis of a radioactive zirconium sand uploading facilityMiller, Robert E. 16 November 2001 (has links)
The Teledyne Wah Chang facility is a manufacturer of the rare metal
zirconium. The facility has been in constant production since 1956. In 1973
an attempt to utilize different sand ore sources from Nigeria and India in a
new carbiding process, prior to chlorination, failed. The resulting
byproducts of the carbiding process and approximately 2000 kg of zircon
sand ore were lost in what is now called the Former Sand Unloading Area.
In 1982, Teledyne Wah Chang facility was listed as a Superfund site. The
Former Sand Unloading Area was contaminated with naturally-occurring
radioactive material. After being listed, Teledyne Wah Change began the
Remedial Investigation / Feasibility Study process in an attempt to cleanup
the Former Sand Unloading Area and other contaminated sites.
Afterwards, it was discovered that the remediation goals for the Former
Sand Unloading Area only addressed exposure pathways to current workers
on site. No consideration had been given to possible future occupants under
long term exposure scenarios. In this study, three scenarios were modeled
to illustrate the most plausible occupancy uses of the Former Sand
Unloading Area. The scenarios were: current industrial worker,
commercial worker, and a residential occupant. The pathways that were
used to model the exposure scenarios were, direct external radiation,
inhaled and ingested soil, and plant consumption. The RESRAD computer
code was used to estimate the dose rates to current and future occupants
working or living on the Former Sand Unloading Facility. The maximum
resulting radiation dose received was 16.7 mrem y����� for the industrial
worker scenario. The lowest maximum radiation dose received was 13.6
mrem y����� for the commercial worker scenario. The most conservative
assumptions and efforts were used to ensure the maximum dose rate was
modeled. The maximum radiation dose rate received at the Former Sand
Unloading Area was below the regulatory maximum allowable exposure
limit of 25 mrem y�����. / Graduation date: 2002

The historical archaeology of the Old Farm on Strawberry Hill : a rural estate 1827-1889, Albany, Western AustraliaGardos, Amy January 2004 (has links)
This thesis presents the results of historical archaeological research at the Old Farm on Strawberry Hill in Albany, Western Australia. The site is an important colonial farm in Western Australia’s history; the location for the first farm in Western Australia (1827) and linked to many important individuals in the state’s colonial past. The site is owned and managed by the National Trust of Australia (W.A.) and is registered on both the West Australian, Heritage Council Register of Historical Places and the Australian Heritage Commission’s National Estate. Past historical and cultural biases had created an incomplete interpretation of this site that did not represent all social groups, including indentured servants, convict and Aboriginal labourers and women. The research has provided a holistic site interpretation that identified all social groups living and working on this site in the 1800s by analysing historical documents and archaeological excavated materials. The historical documentary record included both personal and official correspondence, diaries and drawings, as well as two valuable farm log books that documented the day to day events on the farm in the early to mid 1800s. The archaeological excavation was restricted to small area excavations in habitation areas still present on the site or in areas identified from 19th century surveyor maps. Both of these data sources were analysed to identify social and economic relationships, such as gender, status, class and ethnicity so that a comparison could be made between historical and archaeological data and a complementary interpretation created. The research was divided into three main periods of site occupation, firstly by convict gardeners during the government farm period from 1827 to 1832. The Spencer family period from 1833 to 1889, which is further defined by two phases, the six years from their arrival until Richard Spencer’s death in 1839 and the dispersal of the family and the property decline until it was sold in 1889. The third period of occupation by the Bird family was not discussed due to the discontinuation of a farming subsistence that distinguished it from a rural rather than an urban property. This study provides the current heritage managers with an updated interpretation of the site’s past and changing social and economic relationships on site and with the early town of Albany. It is hoped that this interpretation will be used to improve the site’s current representation and becomes the basis for a heritage conservation plan which not only recognises the importance of existing site structures, but also sub surface remains. This thesis also identifies a number of avenues for future research that will further enhance the site’s interpretation.

Rena rör : Clean pipesLundgren, Paulina, Torstensson, Anton January 2008 (has links)
In this project a washing station has been constructed for Albany International AB. At present, there is no existing system to clean the dirty pipes that are coming back to the company. The work followed the product development process, and it started with the requirements list. This was followed by brainstorming, evaluation and completion. The result was a concept for de present time and one concept for the future. The present concept is intended to be built immediately. This is an adjustable bench with sliding bearings to facilitate the work. The actual cleaning is done with a high pressure washer that uses hot water. When the future concept will be brought into use, you don’t need to modify or rebuild anything, just add to the constructions that already exist. The future is to increase efficiency and become even more environmentally friendly. The concept also includes two types of warehouses, one for the dirty pipes, and one for the clean pipes. On these you are supposed to place several pipes, so it’s possible to streamline processing, and wash more pipes in a flow. The washing station will lead to improvement of the working environment, and the new technology will make improvements on the result. / I detta arbete har en tvättstation konstruerats åt företaget Albany international AB. I dagsläget finns inget befintligt system för att tvätta smutsiga returrör. Arbetet följde produktutvecklingsprocessen, och började med en kravspecifikation. Därefter följde brainstorming, utvärdering och färdigställande. Resultatet blev ett nutidskoncept och ett framtidskoncept. Nutidskonceptet är tänkt att det skall byggas omgående. Detta är en ställbar tvättbänk med kulhus för att underlätta arbetet. Själva rengöringen sker med en högtryckstvätt som använder varmvatten. När framtidskonceptet skall tas i bruk behöver företaget inte ändra eller bygga om någonting, utan bara göra tillägg i den konstruktion som redan finns. Framtidsvisionen handlar om att öka effektiviteten och samtidigt bli ännu mer miljövänlig. I konceptet ingår det även två typer av magasin, ett för de smutsiga rören, och ett för de rena rören. På dessa ska man kunna lägga flera rör, så att man ska kunna effektivisera bearbetningen och tvätta fler rör i ett flöde. Tvättstationen ska leda till att arbetsmiljön blir bättre, och den nya tekniken gör att resultatet förbättras.
