The Free Church army chaplain 1830-1930.
No full textThe study traces the efforts of English Nonconformists to provide
chaplains for their adherents in the British Army. Unrecognised
by the War Office, and opposed by the Church of England, the
Wesleyan Methodists persisted in providing an unpaid civilian
ministry until, by stages, they secured partial recognition in
1862 and 1881. The respect earned by volunteer Wesleyan civilian
chaplains, who accompanied the troops on most colonial and
imperial expeditions in the last quarter of the century,
culminating in the Boer War, prompted the War Office in 1903 to
offer them a number of commissioned chaplaincies. The Wesleyans
declined the offer. Although they had earlier, and after
anguished debate, accepted State payment of chaplains, they were
not prepared to accept military control of them.
In the Great War, Wesleyan chaplains were nevertheless obliged to
accept temporary commissions. Congregationalists, Baptists,
Primitive and United Methodists, through a United Board, provided
another stream of chaplains. With the political help of Lloyd
George, both sets of Nonconformists secured equitable treatment
at the hands of the Church of England and, through an
Interdenominational Committee, gained positions of considerable
influence over chaplaincy policy. In the field, remarkably for
the age, they joined with Presbyterians and Roman Catholics in a
single chain of command. By 1918, over 500 Wesleyan and United
Board commissioned chaplains were engaged. After the war, as the price of retaining their newly won standing
and influence, both the Wesleyans and the United Board
denominations accepted permanent commissions for their chaplains
and their absorption within a unified Chaplains Department.
Acceptability was secured through willingness to compromise on
voluntaryism and conformity to the State

The elastic spiral phase pipe
No full textThis is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is available from Elsevier via the DOI in this recordWe design a device for the passive mode conversion of guided, axisymmetric, ultrasonic waves in hollow elastic pipes into arbitrary non-axisymmetric flexural waves that have a constant angular profile along the pipe axis. To achieve this we create an elastic analogue to optical spiral phase plates—the elastic spiral phase pipe. Three possible configurations of the elastic spiral phase pipe are presented which allow the efficient generation of non-axisymmetric flexural waves from an axisymmetric, longitudinal forcing. The theory leverages the dispersive nature of the guided elastic waves that are supported in pipes through a defined relative refractive index. As such we include a spectral collocation method used to aid the design of the elastic spiral phase pipe that is corroborated with numerical simulations and then experimentally verified.Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC)European Union Horizon 2020Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 185

Adventist Information Ministry: Historical-Missiological Foundations and an Evaluation of the Chaplain\u27s Role
No full textPurpose
The aim of this dissertation was to: (1) investigate and record historical and missiological foundations of Adventist Information Ministry; (2) survey, analyze, describe, and evaluate perceptions about the AIM chaplain\u27s role and present resulting recommendations; and (3) provide summaries and conclusions for the major topics and methodology revealed in the main body of this report.
Method
Following an investigation of historical documents, a qualitative survey based on Dillman\u27s Total Design Method was implemented with six different groups of individuals associated with Adventist Information Ministry. Recorded input from sixty-five telephone interviews was analyzed and described according to pertinent group perceptions regarding the principle subjects of the study. The historical probes and phone interview findings were augmented with observations from the author\u27s two and a half years of work experience as senior chaplain at Adventist Information Ministry.
Results
A treatise of trends spanning a fifteen-year period of time leading up to the birth of Adventist Information Ministry is now available under one cover. The display of documented contributions reveals that a host of foundational proclamations, formative ideas, technological inventions, and key institutions were involved. For the Adventist Information Ministry chaplain, six fundamental functions are ranked according to survey results for the importance and time spent for each function. Discoveries among the chaplain interviewees includes intercession receiving the place of greatest importance but least time spent, administration voted least important but second in time spent, and counseling looked upon with lower importance but claiming the most time spent.
Conclusions
The variety of foundational sources made clear the delivery of Adventist Information Ministry was not the result of any one human being\u27s work. It was concluded that the governing source behind these multiple developmental factors was the working of God through His Holy Spirit. Given the blend of widely differing perspectives pertaining to the counseling component of the chaplain\u27s role, a concluding recommendation was directed to current leadership, staff, and chaplains at Adventist Information Ministry to meet together and work through the likelihood of ongoing misunderstandings in this important area
