No full textThe collection of texts contained in this volume stem from a proposition that as an emerging discipline interior design draws from a body of theory specific to its creative practice. Initial informal surveys of interior design/ interior architecture and spatial arts university programmes revealed that not only do approaches, outlooks and pedagogical philosophy differ, but also the scope of theoretical texts rarely repeat or identify a distinct set of readings. Feedback we received from respondents indicated that most interior design programmes identify theoretical sources that span across several disciplines, that is, material from cultural geography, sociology, anthropology, philosophy and gender studies etc. The material offers positions and insights that operate beyond architectural canons and interior design’s marginalisation within that discourse. This is not to suggest the interior as an inside is possible without architectural context or another form of enframing, particularly as Elizabeth Grosz has discussed the impossibility of having an inside without some form of demarcation that distinguishes the outer from the inner. Our search for theory related to the specifics of inhabitation and bodily presence confirms, the interior and its design constitute a wider field of cultural production
Proceedings of the Interior Space in Other Places : An IDEA [Interior Design/Interior Architecture Educators Association] Symposium [Edited Volume of Proceedings]

The focus of this symposium was to question whether interior design is changing relative to local conditions, and the effect globalization has on the performance of regional, particularly Southern hemisphere identities. The intention being to understand how theory and practice is transposed to ‘distant lands’, and how ideas shift from one place to another. To this extent the symposium invited papers on the export, translation and adoption of theories and practices of interior design to differing climates, cultures, and landscapes.\ud

This process, sometimes referred to as a shift from ‘the centre to the margins’, seeks new perspectives on the adoption of European and US design ideas abroad, as well as their return to their place of origin. Papers were invited from a range of perspectives including the export of ideas/attitudes to interior spaces, history of interior spaces abroad, and the adoption of ideas/processes to new conditions.\ud

Paralleling this trafficking of ideas are broader observations about interior space that emerge through specificity of place. These include new and emerging directions and differences in our understanding of interiority; both real and virtual, and an ever-changing relationship to city, suburb and country. Keeping within the Symposium theme the intention was to examine other places, particularly on the margins of the discipline’s domain.\ud

Semantic slippage aside, there are a range of approaches that engage outside events and practices enabling a transdisciplinary practice that draws from other philosophical and theoretical frameworks. Moreover as the field expands and new territories are opened up, the virtual worlds of computer gaming, animations, and interactive environments, both rely on and produce new forms of expression. This raises questions about the extent such spaces adopt or translate existing theory and practice, that is the transposition from one area to another and their return to the discipline

Mesh considerations for adaptive finite element analyses of cement failure in total hip replacement
No full textFailure of the cement mantle has been identified as a possible
mode of failure of the implanted femur in total hip replacement (THR)
[1]. Finite element (FE) analyses have been used to investigate the
stresses experienced in the cement mantle [2] and to predict the life of
the cement mantle when taking different factors into account [3]. The
number of elements used, or mesh density, is an important
consideration when creating a FE model. A model with an insufficient
mesh density will not be able to fully capture the stress state in the
area of interest, but increasing the mesh density dramatically increases
the computational cost of the analysis.
The aim of this study is to determine the mesh density necessary
to model creep and damage accumulation in the cement mantle of a
cemented implanted femur. We compare the initial stress state and
damage accumulation rate for different mesh densities and different
element types
