Helen R. Deese Honored with the 2010 Lyman H. Butterfield Award
The Lyman H. Butterfield Award is presented this year to Helen R. Deese. With this award the Association for Documentary Editing recognizes, first and foremost, Professor Deese’s achievements as a scholar who works on both sides of our putative divide, producing acclaimed editions of both literary and historical texts. We also recognize her generous service to the Association over many years as a member of its committees and Council, a presenter at annual meetings, an author in Documentary Editing, and a thoughtful contributor to our ongoing discussions of editorial theory and practice

On the displacement of a traditional retaining wall when first loaded
When the dimensions of the base of a retaining wall have been selected by, for example, some form of limit state analysis (Butterfield, 2012) an assessment ought also to be made of the displacement of the wall during its working life. This paper presents a simple rational means of doing so, illustrated by but not limited to, loads imposed during a conventional backfilling process. The analysis presented is an application of a vertical-displacement-hardening plasticity model incorporating nested interaction diagrams as yield functions together with a plastic potential and a hardening rule. The hardening rule, a key component of such a model, is assumed to depend only on the vertical centreline load V0 versus vertical displacement w0 relationship of the wall base. The model predicts that the horizontal, rotational and vertical displacements will be very simply inter-related; a prediction reinforced by the very satisfactory agreement obtained between it and the results from tests on a model footing supported on dense sand
Dimensional Analysis Revisited
Dimensionless groups, the output of a successful dimensional analysis, are usually developed via Buckingham's pi theorem. Because this theorem provides a necessary but not sufficient condition for a solution, such a dimensional analysis may, on occasion, appear to fail. The paper presents the necessary and sufficient conditions in a simple form and builds on them to demonstrate how new physical knowledge can augment a 'primitive' set of dimensions to arrive at an optimal number of dimensionless groups. The formulation is used to elucidate the historical Rayleigh-Ria-bouchinsky controversy and a related thermomechanical problem is analysed to demonstrate the complete 'new knowledge' algorithm. Mathematica code is appended which incorporates these ideas and generates the complete set of admissible dimensionless groups for any specific problem

Dimensional analysis for geotechnical engineers
Dimensional analysis is an important tool for engineers, aiding the design of experiments and concise expression of the results generated by them. The dimensionless groups, which are the output of a successful dimensional analysis, are usually developed via Buckingham's ‘Pi’ theorem. Because this alone is a necessary, but not sufficient, condition for a solution, difficulties are frequently encountered. This paper presents a general, dimensional analysis algorithm which imposes both necessary and sufficient conditions. Illustrative problems are included, together with a Mathematica program which generates all possible sets of admissible dimensionless groups for a specific problem.<br/
