Ep096 The Neighbours: Exploring Stories and Songs with Meghan Forsyth
No full textMeghan Forsyth is the Project Coordinator and Researcher at the Research Centre for the Study of Music, Media, and Place, and the Director of the Bruneau Centre for Excellence in Choral Music at MUN. She is an ethnomusicologist specializing in music and dance of the Acadian diaspora, and is co-author, with Ursula Kelly, of the forthcoming book The Music of Our Burnished Axes: Songs and Stories of the Woods Workers of Newfoundland and Labrador. In addition to her work at MMaP, Meghan teaches courses in ethnomusicology, musicology and popular music at MUN’s School of Music. Recently, MMaP launched “The Neighbours: St. John’s” -- an app for mobile devices. In this episode, we chat about how this new app presents fascinating stories from cultural communities in and around St. John’s. Meghan describes how the app enables users to take a walking tour of downtown St. John’s and Middle Cove Beach to hear stories associated with individual locations, and then she gives us a preview of her new book on logging song traditions.

The A-theory: a theory
No full textA-theories of time postulate a fundamental distinction between the present and other times. This distinction manifests in what A-theorists take to exist, their accounts of property change, and their views about the appropriate temporal logic. In this dissertation, I argue for a particular formulation of the A-theory that dispenses with change in existence and makes tense operators an optional formal tool for expressing the key theses. I call my view the minimal A-theory. The first chapter introduces the debate. The second chapter offers an extended, logic-based argument against more traditional A-theories. The third and fourth chapters develop my alternative proposal. The final chapter considers a problem for A-theorists who think the contents of our attitudes reflect changes in the world.Ph.

Shedding the Shackles
No full textI began to follow in my sister\u27s footsteps, and suddenly I lost myself.
Meghan Hyland: Meghan wrote her essay for GWRIT 102D. Meghan is one of the student editors of e-Vision, though her essay was (of course!) submitted anonymously and and was chosen for publication by the e-Vision student editorial board without anyone having the slightest idea that she was the author!
Meghan Hyland is a French and Spanish double major who likes to read and write in her spare time. She enjoys experimenting with new styles of writing, and favors creative writing because it allows her to write without rules. She finds the process of writing to be extremely challenging, but at the same time very rewarding.
Overwhelmed by the newness of college and the task of developing her own identity, Meghan wrote Shedding the Shackles, which gave her a chance to reflect on her college decision and her relationship with her sister. In it, she experimented with voice by using sentence fragments and simple language to bring power to her writing and express the thoughts of a child. This personal essay required a number of drafts and revisions, but she feels that the ultimate product was well worth the effort
Modeling and analysis of steel gusset plates in truss bridges under live load
No full textIn the aftermath of the collapse of the I-35W over Mississippi River Bridge in Minnesota, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) issued a technical advisory to bridge owners to check the status of similarly-designed bridges. It was determined that under-designed gusset plates contributed to the collapse. This sparked a nationwide effort to investigate the design of these connection members and to develop more detailed specifications for future gusset plate design. In order to thoroughly study complicated bridge elements such as gusset plates, sophisticated analysis techniques are required. One such technique is finite element modeling (FEM), which is used here to identify critical loading cases for typical Warren truss gusset plates. The specific gusset plates studied here are located on two bridges, herein referred to as Bridge A and Bridge B, that are similar in design to the I-35W Bridge. Following the I-35W collapse, independent investigations, which included finite element analysis, were initiated on both bridges. In this thesis, information from these investigations is used to develop a comprehensive FEM, which facilitates more in-depth analysis of such gusset plates. The analysis focuses on the investigation of stresses created in the gusset plates by various types of live loading. The results are compared to the Method of Sections approach recommended by FHWA following the I-35W Bridge collapse to determine if better analysis specifications are needed. Although the results of the finite element analysis and the Method of Sections approach are similar, the authors conclude that the value of the Method of Sections approach is strongly dependent on the accuracy of the load data input. Therefore, more detailed specifications are needed to ensure the accuracy of future gusset plate analysis and design.M.S.Includes bibliographical referencesby Meghan M. Myer
