No full textGeneralized Bagley-Torvik Equation and Fractional Oscillators
No full textIn this paper the Bagley-Torvik Equation is considered with the order of the damping term allowed to range between one and two. The solution is found to be representable as a convolution of trigonometric and exponential functions with the driving force. The properties of the effective decay rate and the oscillation frequency with respect to the order of the fractional damping are also studied. It is found that the effective decay rate and oscillation frequency have a complex dependency on the order of the derivative of the damping term and exhibit properties one might expect of a thermodynamic Equation of state: critical point, phase change, and lambda transition
A Southern Colonial House in Miniature, circa 1948
No full textThis booklet describes the creation of the "Hammons House," a Colonial Revival miniature mansion co-designed by Claire Bagley Hammons, her husband Frederick Dent Hammons, and architect Joseph S. Cote. The model house was completed in 1948 and given as a gift to the Seattle Historical Society, now known as the Museum of History & Industry, in 1955. The pamphlet has black and white photographs of the individual rooms with details about their furnishings and creation. There is an introduction by the author, who dedicated the booklet to her husband.
Some years later, in 1960, Claire Bagley Hammons wrote a letter to a Mrs. McLennon, probably at the Seattle Historical Society, with an 11-page enclosure describing the model house in greater detail. With a page for each room of the house, the entries detail the provenance of objects and how some specific objects were created.1 pamphlet (16 p.); 8 x 5 i

Non-commercial object-base scene description
No full textThis is the post-print version of the Article. The official published version can be accessed from the link below - Copyright @ 2007 SpringerThis paper investigates methods of describing two-dimensional and three-dimensional scenes using eXtensible Mark-up Language (XML). It also investigates the initial development of a non-commercial object-based scene description language, for the effective capture of two- and three-dimensional scenes. Design science research techniques were applied to determine the ideal factors involved in effective scene capture. The solution facilitates the description of 2D and 3D environments via interpretation of object relationships; the implementation of the inheritance, functionality, interactions and behaviour

Kim Bagley: Africa and the West: an exhibition of ceramics
No full textThis exhibition of handmade ceramic work was created over three years in the ceramics studios at UCA, Farnham. The work is an exploration of the artist's own African and South African identities. The exhibition forms part of a practice-led PhD thesis entitled: Africa and the West: a contested dialogue in modern and contemporary ceramics.
The exhibition comprises three themes in which an animal or animal-related symbol has been used as a metaphor and a starting point for examining questions of identity and representation.
In the first phase this is relatively simple. Nguni cattle are synonymous with KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, where the artist comes from. In 'Object/ify', cattle forms are arranged to create a large herd-like grouping.
The second theme is centred on notions of official forms of identification and identity documents. The plastic ear tag commonly used to 'mark' cattle in commercial farming practices all over the world have been remade in clay in their hundreds, and suspended using silk thread.
The third animal symbol is more abstract. The group of insects known collectively as 'wood-borer' pose a significant threat to suburban houses in the port city of Durban, South Africa. To get rid of these insects, pest control companies use extermination tents. These large tarpaulins cover entire houses during fumigation. The striking forms of these giant 'skins' over houses have been translated into an installation of ceramic 'Extermination Tents' made from thin porcelain and terracotta paper clay. Inner structures of grey stoneware clay that echo scaffolding hold up some of these fragile tents. Through this careful grouping of objects, the project moves away from rural symbols. This draws more closely from the artist's own experience, that of growing up in an African city
Flying Squirrel Nest Site Use and Activity Patterns at Bagley Nature Area
No full textUMD University Honors Capstone research projectFlying squirrels are found in hardwood forests across North America, yet little is known about their habitat use and activity patterns. The focus of this project is on the use of nest trees of the southern flying squirrels (Glaucomys volans) present at Bagley Nature Area on the UMD campus (Image 1). Data collection was done by fitting the squirrels with VHF radiocollars and conducting daily monitoring visits in order to mark active nest locations. By analyzing the radiotelemetry data, we were able to identify nesting durations and distances between sites on a per-squirrel basis. We analyzed biological and behavioral comparisons in gender, season/temperature, nest site characteristics, number of days in a tree, distance traveled per night, as well as various other contributing factors. This data gains insight into the proportional habitat use and activity patterns of flying squirrels in northern Minnesota.Windfeldt, Allison. (2024).
