Following Manson Papers from the Peter Manson Symposium
No full textCopyright: © 2020 The Author(s). Peter Manson (1969-) is a poet and translator of poetry from Glasgow. He is the author of several volumes of poetry including For the Good of Liars (Barque Press, 2006), Between Cup and Lip (Miami University Press, 2008), English in Mallarmé (Blart Books, 2014) and Poems of Frank Rupture (Sancho Panza, 2014), and of the prose-work Adjunct: an Undigest (Edinburgh Review 2006; ubuweb 2001). Recent poetry includes Factitious Airs (Zarf editions, 2017) and a collaboration with Mendoza, WINDSUCKERS & ONSETTERS: SONNOTS for Griffiths (MATERIALS, 2018). Manson is also a translator of poetry from French: his translation of Stéphane Mallarmé’s Poesies, twenty-five years in the making, was published as Stéphane Mallarmé: The Poems in Verse in 2013 (University of Miami Press). Further translations include Mallarmé’s The Marrying of Hérodiade (Free Poetry, 2016) and early poems by Théophile Gautier, Darkness (2018). With Robin Purves, Manson co-edited the poetry magazine, Object Permanence, from Glasgow, between 1994 and 1997, establishing vital transatlantic links between experimental poets from the UK and Ireland and the US. In October 2017, a symposium dedicated to Manson’s poetry and translations was held at the University of Glasgow, including an evening of celebratory readings and music, and a poetry reading by Manson. This special issue of the Journal of British and Irish Innovative Poetry collects essays extending many of the papers given that weekend.
This editorial is in three parts. First, Ellen Dillon discloses the personal impact of her compulsive engagement with Peter Manson’s work on her life as a reader and scholar, then Tom Betteridge reads ‘Gray Squirrel’ from Manson’s early pamphlet Birth Windows.1 These are followed by an introduction to each of the seven essays collected in this special issue.The Andrew Tannahill Fund for the Furtherance of Scottish Literature; The W.P Ker Fund; Scottish Network of Modernist Studies; School of English, Dublin City University

Brevulacus reticulatus Manson 1984
No full textBrevulacus reticulatus Manson 1984 Type host and locality. Quercus sp. (Fagaceae), New Zealand. Distribution. On Quercus robur L.; from England (recorded here), Poland (Skoracka et al. 2005), Russia (Chetverikov & Sukhareva 2010), Turkey (Denizhan & Çobanoġlu 2008) and West Virginia, USA (James Amrine, personal communication 2012); on Quercus cerris L. from England (recorded here); on Quercus sp. from China (Kuang, Luo & Wang 2005) and New Zealand (op. cit.); and on Quercus glauca Thunb. from China (Xue & Hong 2006). This species has also been reported on Xylosma japonicum A. Gray (Salicaceae) from China (Kuang, Luo & Wang 2005), however no further biological details were given, and it is unknown if it had naturalised on this host. Relation to host. Vagrant on the under surface of the leaves, causing no apparent damage. Collection details. England, North Yorkshire, York, Sand Hutton (54 ° 1 ʹ 1.92 ʺ N, 0° 58 ʹ 5.52 ʺ W), mid to high numbers on Q. robur, 24.vi. 2009, collected by the author; Quadracus urticae Keifer 1944 Sand Hutton (54 ° 1 ʹ 5.88 ʺ N, 0° 57 ʹ 47.52 ʺ W), low numbers on Q. cerris, collected by C. Malumphy, 07.ix. 2010. Discussion. Quercus cerris is a new host record for this species. The empodium of B. reticulatus were originally described by Manson (1984) as having “bundles of ‘rays’ distal to which can be faintly discerned the normal apical rays”, but the exact number of rays was not given. Specimens from the British populations studied here have 10 (rarely 9) rays. Furthermore, the solenidia were originally described as being positioned lateral to the empodia, but this feature was not observed in the populations studied: the solenidia were in the normal position, above the empodia. The British populations studied also differed slightly to the original description by having 54–58 dorsal annuli (n= 10), and with the sc setae 30–36 µm long (n= 10).Published as part of Pye, Daniel R.

The development of a predictive procedure for localised three dimensional river flows
No full textThis thesis contains the formulation, development and initial tests of a computer model for the prediction of fully three dimensional turbulent free surface flows typically found at localised areas of river systems. It is the intention that the model will be used to predict flow situations which are fully three dimensional. The model is, therefore, tested against a fully three dimensional test case of flow in a two-stage meandering channel. However, the model is not intended simply to be for computing flows in meandering river channels. Rather the model is intended to be used in a variety of problems which are outlined in the thesis.
The Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations form the basis of the physical system. The Reynolds stresses are represented by two different stress-strain relationships: (1) a linear relationship and (2) a non-linear relationship. These relationships rely on an eddy viscosity and a turbulence time-scale which are calculated from two characterising turbulence quantities, a velocity squared scale, k, and an inverse length scale, . These quantities are computed from differential transport equations. Non-linear stress-strain relationships are relatively new and, it has been argued by their originators, require application to several different problems to fully ascertain their potential for future use. The author addresses this demand by applying them to two new problems. These are flow in a plenum chamber and open channel flow over a backward facing step.
The equations are solved by an operator splitting method which, it is argued, allows for an accurate and realistic treatment of the troublesome advection terms at low spatial resolutions. This is thought to be essential since for three dimensional problems owing to computer time limitations achieving grid independent solutions with low order schemes is at present very difficult. The advantage of the present approach is demonstrated with reference to a simple one dimensional analogue
BCIT integrated grid laboratory planning framework
No full textThis paper presents a planning framework for an educational training facility designed to incorporate exposure to equipment and scenarios seen in modern power systems, such as islanded microgrids, distributed renewable generation, and new information and communications technologies. The overall architecture is geared towards addressing skills and training gaps in undergraduate “power systems” education. The design principles make this laboratory safe, robust, scalable, modular, and expandable and can therefore also be considered for transport to remote sites for training or demonstration purposes. The framework is based on development and implementation of such a facility at the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) in the Vancouver area of Canada. It is the goal of the author to allow other institutes to reduce overall implementation time and to share and collaborate on educational materials and pedagogical results. The paper concludes with the presentation of a cost function which ranks, according to the author and BCIT's planning experience, the relative costs and benefits for such a facility in comparison with other possible approaches
