Training Packages form the basis upon which practitioners in the Vocational Education and Training (VET) sector in Australia develop their pedagogical processes. As workplaces adapt their practices to compete globally, demand for skilled and knowledgeable workers places pressure on institutional training providers such as TAFE to develop training programs that support the acquisition of higher order thinking skills in graduates. Using a competence based framework as a backdrop, the research centres on the notion of the place of Project Based Learning in a Training Package context. The research proposes that learning through projects is an effective means of integrating Training Package outcomes with an instructional model that engages learners in independent, flexible and reflective learning. The research was conducted retrospectively from a case study of an AQF Level 6 Textile, Clothing and Footwear Training Package Program at RMIT University TAFE. An Action Research approach underpins the investigation, resulting in the profiling of teaching, learning and assessment as areas in need of further examination. These defining themes are explored in the context of the Project Based Learning model developed at RMIT, with consideration given to the potential for broader application. The discussion concludes with a theoretical review of the new understandings of pedagogy. The study aims to establish that a constructive alignment exists between the behaviourist approach of Training Packages and the more constructivist theories behind Project Based Learning; rendering it a suitable instructional model that meets the needs of 21st century learners.

With the advantage of modern high speed computers, there has been an increased interest in the use of first-principles based computational approaches for the aerodynamic modeling of horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT). Since these approaches are based on the laws of conservation (mass, momentum, and energy), they can capture much of the physics in great detail. The ability to accurately predict the airloads and power output can greatly aid the designers in tailoring the aerodynamic and aeroelastic features of the configuration. First-principles based analyses are also valuable for developing active means (e.g., circulation control), and passive means (e.g., Gurney flaps) of reducing unsteady blade loads, mitigating stall, and for efficient capture of wind energy leading to more electrical power generation. In this present study, the aerodynamic performance of a wind turbine rotor equipped with circulation enhancement technology (trailing edge blowing or Gurney flaps) is investigated using a three-dimensional unsteady viscous flow analysis. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) Phase VI horizontal axis wind turbine is chosen as the baseline configuration. Prior to its use in exploring these concepts, the flow solver is validated with the experimental data for the baseline case under yawed flow conditions. Results presented include radial distribution of normal and tangential forces, shaft torque, root flap moment, surface pressure distributions at selected radial locations, and power output. Results show that good agreement has been for a range of wind speeds and yaw angles, where the flow is attached. At high wind speeds, however, where the flow is fully separated, it was found that the fundamental assumptions behind this present methodology breaks down for the baseline turbulence model (Spalart-Allmaras model), giving less accurate results. With the implementation of advanced turbulence model, Spalart-Allmaras Detached Eddy Simulation (SA-DES), the accuracy of the results at high wind speeds are improved. Results of circulation enhancement concepts show that, at low wind speed (attached flow) conditions, a Coanda jet at the trailing edge of the rotor blade is effective at increasing circulation resulting in an increase of lift and the chordwise thrust force. This leads to an increased amount of net power generation compared to the baseline configuration for moderate blowing coefficients. The effects of jet slot height and pulsed jet are also investigated in this study. A passive Gurney flap was found to increase the bound circulation and produce increased power in a manner similar to the Coanda jet. At high wind speed where the flow is separated, both the Coanda jet and Gurney flap become ineffective. Results of leading edge blowing indicate that a leading edge blowing jet is found to be beneficial in increasing power generation at high wind speeds. The effect of Gurney flap angle is also studied. Gurney flap angle has significant influence in power generation. Higher power output is obtained at higher flap angles.

In recent years, the emergence of Hsinchu Science Park shows strength of economic development in Taiwan. This strength further moulds and brings the new industry space image (famous region brand), the industry cluster, as well as the development of industry network. Moreover, these factors drive related manufacturer or general headquarters to assemble in Hsinchu. Reviews of modern position theory and general headquarters point out that the productive service industry and innovative atmosphere have critical influence on sing geographical space position for the manufacturing industry. This study observes the general headquarters of enterprises of all counties and cities in Taiwan; By using logist statistical analysis and the interview method to confirm distribution factors of general headquarters position, this study propose the following conclusions. There is great difference in the space distribution of general headquarters between manufacturing industry enterprises. Among them, the statistical analysis confirms that the factor of system has influence on the position of enterprises general headquarters. Especially, as far as the general headquarters location is concerned, big factories have preference for choosing industrial regions. For the part of division among specialized deartments of two sides, clusters of scientific and technological industry, which form specific regions, are located mainly in Hsinchu Science Park, Nankang Software Park, and Neihu Technology Park. The first two parks are products of government systems, while the third one is established by independent strength of private companies. It is showed that the innovative atmosphere, which is composed of the above three parks and sufficient knowledge facilities in northern Taiwan, indeed influences locations of enterprises general headquarters. The general headquarters of enterprises are mainly the concept of the command system in an organization. It is suggested that the government should keep cultivate research/development environment and high quality human resources, and strength innovative atmosphere to mould better industry environments in the future.

Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht die Relevanz von Merkmalen psychologischer Verträge und organisationaler Demokratie, Basisdimensionen psychischer Arbeitsanforderungen und Eigenverantwortung als Determinanten für Gesundheit, Arbeitsengagement und Innovation bei flexibilisierter Wissensarbeit. Dabei knüpft sie an der Frage an, welchen Erklärungswert indirekte Kontrollmechanismen auf organisationaler Ebene für die widersprüchliche Befundlage bei eigenverantwortlich handelnden Beschäftigten haben. Dazu wird das Konzept der Verhandlungsautonomie (Moldaschl, 2001) als organisationale Kontrolle von Beschäftigten über ihre Arbeits- und Beschäftigungsbedingungen vorgestellt, operationalisiert und in seiner strukturellen Invarianz bestätigt. Die empirischen Ergebnisse weisen ferner auf die inkrementelle Validität des Konstruktes hin, da Verhandlungsautonomie einen substanziellen zusätzlichen Beitrag zur Varianzaufklärung von Innovation und Gesundheit bei Wissensarbeit leistet, der über Personen- und Tätigkeitsmerkmale hinausgeht. Im Mittelpunkt der Arbeit steht die Überprüfung eines theoretisch begründeten Wirkungsmodells, in dem Eigenverantwortung als personale Ressource und Verhandlungsautonomie als organisationale Ressource wechselseitig aufeinander bezogene Determinanten für Stresserleben, Arbeitsengagement und innovatives Arbeitshandeln darstellen. Die Ergebnisse verweisen auf die Bedeutung von Eigenverantwortung und Verhandlungsautonomie als Innovations- und Gesundheitsressourcen, um Widersprüche zwischen leistungs- und gesundheitsbezogenen Zielen in Organisationen zu reduzieren, indem sie einer progressiven Entwicklung chronischer arbeitsbezogener Stresszustände im Innovationsgeschehen entgegen wirken. Damit eröffnen sich für Organisationen Handlungsperspektiven, durch Stärkung organisationaler Demokratie einerseits und Unterstützung eigenverantwortlichen Arbeitshandelns mit einer breiten Auslegung individueller Arbeitsrollen andererseits das Entstehen von Innovationen unter salutogenen Bedingungen zu befördern.

Ett stort antal av miljonprogrammets byggnader är idag i behov av renovering. Då många av dessa byggnader har en hög energiförbrukning kan det vara lönsamt att samtidigt energieffektivisera byggnaderna, bland annat genom tilläggsisolering. Det är av stor vikt att noggrant undersöka hur byggnaderna påverkas ur fukthänsyn innan nya fasadsystem tas i bruk för att undvika framtida fuktrelaterade skador.Syftet är att undersöka tre fasadsystem utifrån hur olika fuktbelastningar, väderstreck, tilläggsisoleringar och stommaterial påverkar ytterväggars fukttillstånd och risken för mikrobiell tillväxt. Även hur väl de olika fasadsystemen lämpar sig för att uppföras på en befintlig stomme i trä-, lättbetong- och betongstomme har undersökts. För att undersöka detta har fuktsimuleringar gjorts i fuktberäkningsprogrammet Wufi och resultaten har analyserats genom jämförelse av RF-kurvor samt riskbedömning för mögeltillväxt i Wufi Bio.En övergripande slutsats är bland annat att inläckage av slagregn är en stor belastning för fasadsystemen. Systemens fuktsäkerhet beror till stor del på dess förmåga att hantera inläckaget.Studien visar även att en fungerande ventilerad luftspalt, en god dränerande funktion eller en konstruktion med genomgående relativt ångöppna material har förmågan att hantera inläckage av slagregn effektivt. / A large number of buildings built under “miljonprogrammet” is today in need of renovation. With their high energy consumption it is also considered profitable to improve the buildings energy efficiency e.g. by additional insulation. It is however important to thoroughly evaluate potential damp issues that might arise as a result of these improvements before starting to implement a new building exterior.The aim of this study was to investigate three different façade systems based on how their moisture content and risk for mould growth are affected by different moisture loads, orientation, and additional insulation. Included is also a performance evaluation for each building exterior solution mounted on existing structure of wood, lightweight concrete and concrete structure. Damp simulations were done with the program Wufi and the results were then analysed by comparison to RF-curves in combination with risk assessments of the growth of mould with “Wufi Bio”.The overall conclusion shows that leakage due to torrential rain poses a great strain on building exterior systems. A solutions damp proof quality is largely dependent on its ability to withstand leakage from outer sources.The study also shows that a well ventilated cavity wall, sufficient drainage or a construction of exclusively vapour open materials has a positive impact on the amount of leakage.

This study belongs to the ‘feasibility’ research current and was carried out at three levels: analysis, design and implementation. The level of analysis involves the analysis of Galilean epistemological framework about the motion of the pendulum, the analysis of mental representations of students about the motion of the simple pendulum and the analysis of the requirements of innovative and constructive approaches for the science curriculum. The level of design includes the formulation of learning objectives and the content development of the teaching sequence. The structural features of the sequence concern (a) the cultural dimension of scientific knowledge (the relationship between the simple pendulum and the timekeeping problem), (b) the conceptual dimension of scientific knowledge (a Galilean semi-quantitative approach of the isochronal motion of the simple pendulum) and (c) the methodological dimension of scientific knowledge (a hypothetico-deductive approach of the relation between the period of the simple pendulum, its string length and its gravitational acceleration) The proposed sequence is composed of four modules and is implemented through problem – solving activities, which are based on transformed or authentic material from the History of Science. The application level includes the experimental implementation of the teaching sequence to 36 students aged 14-15 y.o. and the evaluation of their cognitive progress that we assume took place during the teaching. A questionnaire is used to detect mental representations of students before and after having participated in the teaching intervention. Data analysis was carried out on three levels. The first level shows the positive contribution of the activities of the teaching sequence to a transformation of student responses towards the acceptable scientific school knowledge about the motion of the simple pendulum. The second level shows the overall significant cognitive progress of students in the three components of scientific knowledge, cultural, conceptual and methodological. Finally, the third level shows the positive contribution of the teaching sequence in the formation of groups of pupils using in an efficient and coherent manner both conceptual and methodological aspects of scientific knowledge.
