Nyack River Front Park: a conversation between land and waterMullins, Kerri Ann 10 January 2003 (has links)
This architecture thesis is an exploration of an idea, an event, and a place. The idea was to explore design with water. The design had to be thoughtful and have an impact: an event. My place is on the waterfront.
This thesis confirmed my ideas about site-specific and site-inspired architecture. I looked to my thoughts about water and tried to incorporate them into my design and enhance it with them. In my design I began to think about materials, about the senses, and about how we experience places through sight, sound, smell, touch, and taste. My exploration led me to design a public park on the Hudson River in Nyack, New York.

"Reaching toward the Ineffable": The "Stepping in" in Toni Morrison's ParadiseChan, Yan-Ru 29 July 2003 (has links)
Morrison opens Paradise by constructing a black community based on a traditional, unrelenting patriarchal discourse which seems to be subverted by a rather trivial, private or ¡§feminine¡¨ talk represented by a party of outcast women. Such binary oppositions are thus surfaced continually in the novel and are further intertwined with various genres Morrison draws from myth, fairy tale, romance, biblical story, folklore, vernacular (hi)story, etc. Nevertheless, while elaborating those literary genres and antagonizing sexes, races and classes, she parodies/caricatures and ¡§molests¡¨ them with stereotyped but paradoxical, or contradictory narrative. In so doing, she complicates and revitalizes the seemingly organized but actually paralyzed, unproductive world of language. By fusing and infusing opposite elements into concepts such as stern religious beliefs and one-sided, self-righteous morality, Morrison liberates literature, or language, in a way that it ¡§is both the law and its transgression.¡¨
I quote a phrase from Morrison¡¦s Nobel lecture¡XLanguage¡¦s ¡§force, its felicity is in its reach toward the ineffable¡¨¡Xas part of my title to suggest that her narrative politics¡X¡§stepping in¡¨¡Xis grounded on a sense of human interrelatedness. Demanding as it is, the compassion for distinct individuals, especially for those who are muffled by ¡§representational¡¨ or ¡§monumental¡¨ discourse, is what Morrison tries to gesture toward in her writing. With acute imagination and insightful compassion, she not only voices and makes the ¡§trivial,¡¨ ¡§insignificant¡¨ or ¡§negligible¡¨ things remarkable enough to be juxtaposed with ¡§the grand,¡¨ but also employs them to ¡§step in¡¨ and transform the rather rigid, unreceptive idea of conventional literary canon. Rather than founding a particular ethnic or gendered canon (or hierarchy) to counteract the already dominant, it seems that Morrison appeals to transcend those barriers by releasing the ambiguous, paradoxical and inspiring properties of language, and at the same time, paying deference to diverse, ineffable human differences and experiences.

Criteria for Numerical Stability of Explicit Time-Stepping Elastic-ViscoplasticityHiggins, Jerry 06 1900 (has links)
A simple yet effective technique is used to obtain a numerical stability criteria for explicit time-marching algorithms in elastic-viscoplasticity. The resulting stability criteria are capable of accounting for non-associative and work hardening viscoplasticity for a wide variety of constitutive laws of the Perzyna-type. Conservative estimates for maximum permissible time step are obtained.
This thesis investigates the level of conservativeness by considering different problems exhibiting various levels of constraint. Using the proposed stability criterion, assuming a linear flow function, non-hardening and uniform material properties, it is shown that the initial strain algorithm for plasticity and the initial strain viscoplastic algorithms are numerically the same. The intuitive approach used to obtain an estimate of maximum permissible time step was also used to develop an unconditionally stable implicit time marching scheme which avoids expensive matrix inversions. / Thesis / Master of Engineering (ME)
