A Hybrid Bishop-Hill Model for Microstructure Sensitive DesignTakahashi, Ribeka 08 November 2012 (has links) (PDF)
A method is presented for adapting the classical Bishop-Hill model to the requirements of elastic/yield-limited design in metals of arbitrary crystallographic texture. The proposed Hybrid Bishop-Hill (HBH) model, which will be applied to ductile FCC metals, retains the `stress corners' of the polyhedral Bishop-Hill yield surface. However, it replaces the `maximum work criterion' with a criterion that minimizes the Euclidean distance between the applicable local corner stress state and the macroscopic stress state. This compromise leads to a model that is much more accessible to yield-limited design problems. Demonstration of performance for the HBH model is presented for an extensive database for oxygen free electronic (OFE) copper. The study also implements the HBH model to the polycrystalline yield surface via standard finite element analysis (FEA) tools to carry out microstructure-sensitive design. Anisotropic elastic properties are incorporated into the FEA software, as defined by the sample texture. The derived local stress tensor is assessed using the HBH approach to determine a safety factor relating to the distance from the yield surface, and thereby highlighting vulnerable spots in the component and obtaining a quantitative ranking for suitability of the given design. By following standard inverse design techniques, an ideal microstructure (meaning texture in this context) may be arrived at. The design problems considered is a hole-in-plate configuration of sheets loaded in uniaxial tension and simple compliant mechanisms. The further improvement of HBH model is discussed by introducing geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) densities in addition to the crystal orientations procedure in standard microstructure-based method. The correlations between crystal orientations and GND densities are studied. The shape of the yield surface most influenced by the texture of the material, while the volume of the envelope scales in accordance with the GND density. However, correlations between crystal orientation and GND content modify the yield surface shape and size. While correlations between GND density and crystal orientation are not strong for most copper samples, there are sufficient dependencies to demonstrate the benefits of the detailed four-parameter model. The four-parameter approach has potential for improving estimates of elastic-yield limit in all polycrystalline FCC materials.

House Music: Anxiety, Order, Form, and the Domestic in the Works of Elizabeth Bishop, Gwendolyn Brooks, and Anne SextonBasekic, Alexandra E January 2022 (has links)
This dissertation discusses the way in which mid-20th century American female poets Elizabeth Bishop, Anne Sexton, and Gwendolyn Brooks addressed anxieties around seeking, keeping, and surviving home spaces while incorporating elements of formal poetic structure (including metre, stanzaic configurations, and rhyme). Susan Fraiman, in Extreme Domesticity: A View from the Margins, suggests that domestic space and practice can become sites of improvisation, rebellion, and refuge. Building on this theory, I show how form and domestic subject matter can interact to signify active responses to trauma resulting from childhood abandonment, physical/sexual abuse, homophobia, madness, and systemic racism. I argue that poetic form at its most effective does not function as an homage to either patriarchal canonical models of restraint or craftspersonship but animates the work from the inside out and effectively creates poem-spaces that are metaphorical “homes” rather than “houses”.
My work adds to the fields of American poetry and prosodic scholarship by incorporating close reading techniques that neither follow New Criticism mandates that privilege authorial choice/structural integrity over biographical and sociopolitical resonances nor assign specific meaning to how form is used. Instead, this project encourages readers, students of poetry, and practitioners to rethink how formal structures in poetic work can emerge from and engage with the highly personal and how the implementation of formal technique can potentially offer shelter and a means of articulating trauma and resistance whilst extending into the public sphere (either thematically or through the vehicle of performance) to offer intimacy and forge community. / Dissertation / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) / The mid-20th century American female poets Elizabeth Bishop, Anne Sexton, and Gwendolyn Brooks addressed anxieties around seeking, keeping, and surviving home spaces while incorporating elements of poetic form (including metre, stanzas, and rhyme). I show how form and domestic subject matter can interact to signify active responses to trauma resulting from childhood abandonment, physical/sexual abuse, homophobia, madness, and systemic racism. I argue that form at its most effective should be neither a “container”—a “house” of words—nor a sign that the poet is conservative and/or old-fashioned. Rather, I invite my readers to consider the formal poem as a potential “home” in which the structure becomes an extension of the inner personal forces that animate it, helping it to offer shelter and a means of resistance to the writer and reader/listener, as well as forge connections in the public sphere, both thematically and in performance.

"Rise to thought" : Augustinian ethics in Donne, Shakespeare, and MiltonHarris, Mitchell Munroe, 1977- 21 September 2012 (has links)
This dissertation considers the development of an ethics stemming from the Augustinian revival of early modern England, and the subsequent effect of this ethics on the literary culture of the period. The Preface claims that religious and textual communities operate according to a “cultural mobility” that eludes conventional neo-historicist approaches to literary culture, and Paul Ricoeur’s aphorism, “the symbol gives rise to thought,” serves as a model for thinking through this mobility. Augustinian ethics is a cultural phenomenon in the period, because people are thinking about Augustine, giving new life to his works through their own expressions of thought. After exploring the ways in which the Augustinian revival was brought about during the early modern period in the Introduction, one such expression of thought, John Donne’s relationship with early modern print culture, is examined in Chapter One. Following the theoretical outline of Augustine’s Christianization of Ciceronian rhetoric in his De Doctrina Christiana, it is suggested that though Donne’s aversion to the print publication of his poetry may have begun as a result of his “gentlemanly disdain” of the press, it ultimately found its sustenance in the form of an Augustinian ethic. Chapter Two examines the possibility of a metaphorical acquisition of Augustinian hermeneutics in the metadrama of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. This hermeneutics ultimately calls into question the epistemological framework of Theseus’s skeptical aesthetics, suggesting that a more inclusive aesthetics based on charity can elevate the stage to its proper dignity. The last chapter turns from the communal implications of Augustinian ethics to its subjective implications by examining Augustine’s inner light theology and the role it plays in John Milton’s late poetry. Instead of falling in line with criticism that sees the simultaneous publication of Paradise Regained and Samson Agonistes as a dialectical meditation on the virtues of pacifism and the evils of religious violence, this reading suggests that the late poetry asserts the ethical rights of those who attend to the inner light, whether they be peaceful or violent. / text

The history of the Roman Catholic Church in Lesotho, 1862-1989Sekoati, S. M. 02 1900 (has links)
This dissertation titled The History of the Catholic Church in Lesotho 1862-1989 has
three chapters. The first chapter deals with the formation of the seventy-seven
missions in Lesotho, and the establishment of the four dioceses of Lesotho the
seventy-seven mission had all been formed during the period mentioned in the title,
and those formed after appear in the appendix.
The second chapter deals with the socio-political involvement of the Catholic Church
in Lesotho, this part deals with the authority of the bishop and the Church
government and again with the role of the bishop and his relationship to the Oblate
authority. In this part four bishops are taken to illustrate this point, and this covers the
period from 1930 to 1966. In short this deals with the internal affairs of the Church,
and its finances. And we go on to deal with the involvement of the Church in the
party politics which led to independence of the country.
The last chapter deals with the church under the indigenous clergy, which actually is
inculturation its problem and attempted solution. / Christianity, Spirituality, Church History and Missiology / M. Th. (Church History)
