Artistry of the everyday: beauty and craftsmanship in Berber life
Artistry of the Everyday presents the Peabody Museum’s collection of arts from the Berber-speaking regions of North Africa. The book gives an overview of Berber history and culture, focusing on the rich aesthetic traditions of Amazigh (Berber) craftsmen and women. From ancient times to the present day, working with limited materials but an extensive vocabulary of symbols and motifs, Imazighen (Berbers) across North Africa have created objects that are both beautiful and practical. Intricately woven textiles, incised metal locks and keys, painted pottery and richly embroidered leather bags are just a few examples of objects from the Peabody Museum’s collections that are highlighted in the color plates. The book also tells the stories of the collectors--both world-traveling Bostonians and Harvard-trained anthropologists--who brought these objects from Morocco or Algeria to their present home in Cambridge in the early twentieth century. The generosity of these donors has resulted in a collection of Berber arts, especially from the Tuareg regions of southern Algeria, that rivals that of major European and North African museums

Incorporating Reverse Engineering Methodology into Engineering Curricula
Wanamaker, Trevor W., M.S., Purdue University, May 2012. Incorporating Reverse Engineering Methodology into Engineering Curricula. Major Professor: Craig L. Miller.
Using a qualitative research approach, this study investigated the thoughts and feelings of students regarding the question, “what factors need to be considered when Reverse Engineering (RE) methodology is incorporated into engineering curricula?” The participants in the study were from the Introduction to Graphics for Manufacturing course at the West Lafayette campus of Purdue University. An RE survey was given to the all students enrolled in the course and 10 select students were given the opportunity to use a 3D handheld scanner in a hands-on learning exercise. Each of the 10 students underwent two interviews with questions pertaining to the study, the course, the technology, and the factors they felt were important to RE. The instructor for the course and an industry professional were interviewed to support the data gathered from the student interviews. The outcome of the study was a list of factors that students, the instructor, and the industry professional felt were important to RE implementation. This study provides information important to implementing RE into engineering curricula and suggestions for future research in the field of RE

Elliott.</p> <p> <i>Comments</i></p> <p> Superficially similar to <i>S. cataractarum</i> larvae, <i>S. adelaideae</i> differs noticeably in its enhanced head pattern and is perhaps the most colourful of all <i>Inseliellum</i> larvae, matched perhaps only by the head pattern of larval <i>S. arlecchinum</i> (Craig and Joy 2000). The number and arrangement of hypostomal teeth is similar to that seen in the <i>hirticranium</i> subgroup (Craig and Joy 2000) and is reminiscent of that seen in the <i>oviceps</i> group. The virtually absent postgenal cleft is also shared with the <i>hirticranium</i> group, as is the development of the anal sclerite. The apical teeth of the mandible are also similar to those of <i>S. hispidum</i>. Absence of tubercles on the abdominal cuticle is shared with larvae of <i>S. cataractarum</i> and the <i>hirticranium</i> subgroup, except that <i>S. adelaideae</i> possesses tuberculate cuticle just anterior of the anal sclerite. Although sharing numbers of synapomorphic traits with the <i>hirticranium</i> subgroup, <i>S. adelaideae</i> does, however, not show the diagnostic elongated head setae possessed by larvae of that taxonomic segregate. Still, with its complement of character states, <i>S. adelaideae</i> will no doubt, after more detailed phylogenetic analysis, be shown to be related to <i>S. cataractarum</i> and probably basal to the <i>hirticranium</i> subgroup.</p> <p> The type locality of <i>S. adelaideae</i> is the highest stream on the road that continues past and above Lac Vaihiria and through a tunnel to emerge in the Papenoo Valley. Fed by a small cascade the stream flows though dense vegetation before emerging (Fig. 27) into sunlight, then crosses the road to plunge some 200 m down into the Lac Vaihiria Valley. With air temperature at 21° C, water temperature was 18° C, pH 8.4, and conductivity 50 µS. Water velocity was 76–98 cm /s and depth ca. 30 cm.</p> <p> This small stream is unusual in the complement of species collected. Cascade­dwelling species (<i>S. cataractarum</i>, <i>S. dussertorum, S. fossatiae</i>, <i>S. oviceps</i>) probably originate from the cascade immediately upstream. Larvae of <i>S. lotii</i> and <i>S. malardei</i>, typical of smaller streams at lower altitude, were markedly larger than normal. <i>Simulium cheesmanae</i> adults were captured while trying to bite the author.</p>Published as part of <i>Craig, Douglas A., 2004, Three new species of Inseliellum (Diptera: Simuliidae) from Polynesia, pp. 1-18 in Zootaxa 450</i> on pages 3-6, DOI: <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/157955">10.5281/zenodo.157955</a>
Interface reduction for Hurty/Craig-Bampton substructured models: Review and improvements
The Hurty/Craig-Bampton method in structural dynamics represents the interior dynamics of each subcomponent in a substructured system with a truncated set of normal modes and retains all of the physical degrees of freedom at the substructure interfaces. This makes the assembly of substructures into a reduced-order system model relatively simple, but means that the reduced-order assembly will have as many interface degrees of freedom as the full model. When the full-model mesh is highly refined, and/or when the system is divided into many subcomponents, this can lead to an unacceptably large system of equations of motion. To overcome this, interface reduction methods aim to reduce the size of the Hurty/Craig-Bampton model by reducing the number of interface degrees of freedom. This research presents a survey of interface reduction methods for Hurty/Craig-Bampton models, and proposes improvements and generalizations to some of the methods. Some of these interface reductions operate on the assembled system-level matrices while others perform reduction locally by considering the uncoupled substructures. The advantages and disadvantages of these methods are highlighted and assessed through comparisons of results obtained from a variety of representative linear FE models.Accepted Author ManuscriptShip Hydromechanics and StructuresDynamics of Micro and Nano System
