Abstract:
Many theatre scholars are familiar with the name Mercedes de Acosta but do not know the nature of her connection to the theatre—her close ties to notable actresses and the plays that she wrote. Robert A. Schanke has published two books that hope to clarify de Acosta's place in theatre history. The first is a biography that takes the reader from her exotic background of Spanish ancestry and her stolen inheritance through her innumerable affairs with such figures as Maude Adams, Eva Le Gallienne, Nazimova, Marlene Dietrich, Greta Garbo, and Isadora Duncan. The biography concludes with de Acosta's last years, impoverished, nearly forgotten, and lonely.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTCaptain William Adams (1837–1890) was one of the exceptional whaling masters who sailed from Dundee in Scotland. This paper uses primary sources to confirm his reputation not only as a whaler but also as an adventurous explorer and wealthy businessman. He became outstandingly successful with Alexander Stephen & Sons, the Dundee shipping company that pioneered the use of auxiliary powered vessels for use in sealing in Labrador and fishing for whales in the Davis Strait and beyond. His first command was the Arctic in 1868, and his reputation was such that he was chosen by Albert Hastings Markham as his mentor in gaining experience for polar exploration. The unfortunate loss of the Arctic in Regent Sound in 1875 did no damage to this reputation and Adams was made Master of the newly built flagship of the company's fleet, the Arctic II. In 1883, by then a rich man, Adams became his own Master with the purchase of the Maud. In 1890, the vessel was returning to Dundee from Arctic waters when Captain Adams, who was accompanied by his son also William Adams (1869–1942) acting as Mate, was taken fatally ill, dying at Thurso in Caithness.

Abstract:
In order to do research on dynamic characteristics of auger miner’s working mechanism, three-dimensional entity model was built by software Pro/E, some components of working mechanism were made flexible and corresponding Modal Neutral Files were created by software ANSYS. Through the date exchange among Pro/E, ANSYS and ADAMS, dynamical simulation model of working mechanism was built in ADAMS environment. ADAMS/vibration, a plugin in ADAMS, can solve the dynamical simulation model and obtain dynamic characteristics of working mechanism. The establishment of the model can lay the foundation for the research on dynamic characteristics of working mechanism. The resolved results of the model can provide reference for structural design and performance improvements of working mechanism.

Abstract In this work electrostatic spray deposition process was used to deposit thin Al2O3 + TiO2 ceramic thin film on X10CrAlSi18 steel from colloidal suspension of TiO2 powder in Al2O3 precursor solution. The precursor was 3% solution of Al2(NO3)3 in ethanol. An influence of the thermal treatment after film deposition on protective properties against high temperatures and film endurance were investigated. The resistance against thermal cycles and dynamic impacts were tested. Performed investigations showed that the best protective properties had the Al2O3 + TiO2 film sintered at 1000°C.

Full text
Abstract:
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a protease-modulated chronic disorder with heterogenous clinical manifestations which may lead to an imprecise diagnosis. To date, there are no diagnostic protease tests for AD. We explored the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) protease profile of individuals with moderate/severe AD compared to healthy controls. An exploratory case-control study was conducted. AD patients (n = 23) and controls (n = 21) were enrolled at the International Center for Clinical Studies, Santiago, Chile. Complete dermatological and periodontal evaluations (involving the collection of GCF samples) were made. The levels of 35 proteases were analyzed using a human protease antibody array in matching AD patients (n = 6) and controls (n = 6) with healthy periodontium. The GCF levels of zinc-binding ADAM8, ADAM9, MMP8, Neprilysin/CD10, aspartyl-binding Cathepsin E, serin-binding Protein convertase9, and uPA/Urokinase proteases were lower in moderate/severe AD patients compared to controls (p < 0.05). No inter-group differences in the levels of the other 28 proteases were found. MMP8, Cathepsin E, and ADAM9 were the biomarkers with the highest sensitivity and specificity regarding the detection of AD (p < 0.05). The area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for MMP8 was 0.83 and MMP8 + ADAMP9 was 0.90, with no significant differences (p = 0.132). A combined model of MMP8, Cathepsin E, and ADAM9 was not considered since it did not converge. Then, levels of MMP8 in GCF were determined using a multiplex bead immunoassay in 23 subjects with AD and 21 healthy subjects. Lower levels of MMP8 in the GCF from the AD group versus healthy group (p = 0.029) were found. This difference remained significant after adjustment by periodontitis (p = 0.042). MMP8 revealed the diagnostic potential to identify AD patients versus healthy controls, (ROC area = 0.672, p < 0.05). In conclusion, differences in the protease profile between AD and control patients were associated with MMP8, Cathepsin E, and ADAM9. Based on the multiplex assay results, MMP8 was lower in AD patients than controls, suggesting that MMP8 may be a diagnostic biomarker candidate.

Full text
Abstract:
The varied career of Adam Easton (c.1330—1397) led him from Norwich Cathedral Priory to Oxford, Avignon and Rome. Not only a monk of the Benedictine Order, he was also a scholar, theologian, diplomat and cardinal, and his work reflects the breadth of this multifaceted background. This volume presents recent research on Easton’s oeuvre, his diplomacy and the books that accompanied him on his travels. Amongst the works addressed in this volume are Easton’s Defensorium ecclesiastice potestatis, his Defensorium Sanctae Birgittae and his Office for the Feast of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary. Further evidence is also offered on his testimony during the Great Schism, on the dating of his copy of De pauperie Salvatoris, while two reassessments are made of his likeness, including his sepulchral monument at S. Cecilia in Trastevere in Rome and the Lutterworth wall painting. Finally, a catalogue of Easton’s important manuscript collection is also provided.

Full text
Abstract:
In the early Irish Church (600–800 CE) there were apocrypha of Oriental origin and in the tenth-century poem Saltair na Rann (“Psalter of Quatrains”) the account of the Fall of Adam and Eve is recognized as having analogues with rabbinic tradition and also a poem on Adam’s head. This essay first considers Jewish texts that have, or may have, influenced Irish tradition. Jewish influence on Irish traditions is then considered: Latin conjoined treatises on Adam and Eve; Adam created in agro Damasceno, in the field of Damascus; the seven or eight parts from which Adam was made; the four elements from which Adam was made (with rabbinic analogues); the naming of Adam (Slavonic Enoch and Sibylline Oracles 3:24–26); Penance of Adam and Eve; Sunday, Sabbath, respite for the damned; XV Signs before Doomsday; Jewish traditions in Saltair na Rann; the influence of Hebrew Bible traditions on early Irish genealogies and imagined prehistory.

Full text
Abstract:
According to Malebranche, Adam should be considered as an occasionalist philosopher. Not only did philosophy originate in paradise, but it in fact originated as Malebranchian occasionalism. It was in order to be able to persist in his occasionalist belief that Adam was given exceptional power over his body, that is, the power to detach the principal part of his brain (i.e., the seat of the soul) from the rest of the body. It was only in continually detaching the principal part of his brain from the rest of the body that Adam was able to persist in his occasionalist belief despite the unmistakable testimony of his sense to the contrary. Having once sinned, he thereupon lost his psychophysical privilege. Whereas pre-lapsarian physiology made Adam's belief in the causal efficacy of God possible, post-lapsarian physiology, in contrast, necessarily engenders and sustains belief in the causal efficacy of bodies. It was only as a result of the post-lapsarian physiology that some of the central problems of early modern philosophy arose. Contingent upon Adam's psychophysical privilege, occasionalism was possible only in paradise.

Abstract:
As the 1960s end and the 1970s begin, Betty Comden and Adolph Green worked on two new shows. The first was Applause, which though set in then-present-day New York was something of a backward glance. It was a musical version of the classic Bette Davis film All About Eve. The show, which had a score by composer Charles Strouse and lyricist Lee Adams, was a hit for the writers and its star, film luminary Lauren Bacall, who was making her debut in a musical. They followed with another nostalgic piece of writing, Lorelei, a revision of the musical Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, penned specifically for its original star, Carol Channing. Comden and Green were only to provide lyrics for a handful of new songs, but when the production was foundering on the road they stepped in as its directors, working on it for over a year.

Full text
Abstract:
Timbuktu was a site for both mystical and imperial projections, both the city of gold and the (always impossible) destination of European explorers. This chapter begins with the narrative of Robert Adams who, in 1815, declared to Britain's African Company that he was the first white man ever to have been to Timbuktu. But Adams was a poor mixed-race sailor who was found starving on the London docks, and he invented the Timbuktu tale to secure food, clothing, and passage back to America. Five years later, James Grey Jackson published the narrative of Al-Sayid al-Hajj ‘Abd al-Salaam Shabeeny, a Muslim merchant who also claimed to have been to Timbuktu; Jackson made the mistake of citing Adams’ narrative as evidence of the veracity of some of Shabeeny’s claims. This chapter argues that Adams and Shabeeny take advantage of British self-conception and colonial imagination to manipulate systems of control, rather than to merely respond to them. Like pirates, Shabeeny and Adams recognize how to work the colonial territorial imagination to their own ends.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter argues that it is not only the angels who are perceived as dangerous competitors with God—the same holds true for Adam, the first man, who, according to some midrashim, was originally created with enormous bodily dimensions (a makro-anthropos); one midrash even goes so far as to suggest that God decided to make him mortal only when he realized that the angels made an attempt to worship him. The rabbis polemicized against attempts to elevate Adam to a supernatural and (semi)divine being because they were aware of the possible Christological interpretations and because such ideas had gained followers among the rabbis themselves. The Adam myth is but another example of the theological possibilities inherent in ancient Judaism—possibilities that were developed further by circles that would be labeled “Christian” yet could still remain within what would be called “rabbinic Judaism.” In distancing themselves from such tendencies, the rabbis ultimately aimed to shape their own (rabbinic) identity.

Full text
Abstract:
The FAST/ADAMS/AeroDyn system of codes has been widely used to perform the aero-structural analysis of conventional wind turbine blades. Recent advances in blade design involve the development of aeroelastic tailored blades with large amounts of sweep, and blades with winglets. However, the existing Blade Element Momentum (BEM) approach in AeroDyn is limited to straight blades and does not account for sweep or dihedral effects. The goal of this work is to obtain higher fidelity aerodynamic loads predictions for such advanced blade designs. A Vortex Line Method (VLM) for computing aerodynamic loads has been coupled to ADAMS through modification of the existing AeroDyn interface. The VLM approach adopted here adds fidelity by modeling the effects of sweep, dihedral, 3D wakes, and wake dynamics. An existing steady/unsteady VLM code with these capabilities was restructured to allow its integration with AeroDyn. The FAST routines from NREL, which are used as a preprocessor to ADAMS, and the ADAMS/AeroDyn interface itself, were also modified to create an ADAMS model that properly accounts for the curvature of the blade that occurs when large amounts of sweep or winglets are present. The resulting ADAMS/VLM model was compared to the original ADAMS/BEM model for a straight blade and for a highly swept blade. The model was also applied to blades with pressure-side and suction-side winglet configurations. The BEM and VLM models give similar aero predictions for the straight blade, as expected. The induced twist and blade deformations are found to be more similar for the two methods than the aerodynamic loads. Computations were made for the blades with the winglets at different wind speeds and different pitch settings, and results were obtained for blade deflection, induced twist, and thrust and torque force distributions.

Full text
Abstract:
The usual practice in vehicle dynamic modeling is to consider the body and suspension components as rigid elements. The question this paper is trying to answer is; how large the errors will be if flexibility of the components are not considered in vehicle dynamic model. The flexible vehicle model made for this study has 300000 elements which are generated using Super-element analysis in MSC/NASTRAN and made usable in MSC/ADAMS environment using Craig-Bampton theorem. The full vehicle model made in ADAMS has 200 degrees of freedom and includes all bushings, mechanism, power train, and suspension system. The model was used in simulating ride and handling behavior of the vehicle in several virtual road conditions. The results show that although a rigid car model will result errors in handling behavior, but these errors are all towards increased safety margin when used in design process. On the contrary using a rigid model in vibration and ride analyses of the car tend to suppress the vibrations, and a flexible model markedly affect the vibration modes of the body and the suspension system components

Full text
Abstract:
Despite the importance given to the computational efficiency of multibody system (MBS) simulation tools, there is a lack of standard benchmarks to measure the performance of these kinds of software applications. Benchmarking is done on an individual basis: different sets of problems are used, and the procedures and conditions considered to measure computational efficiency are also different. In this scenario, it becomes almost impossible to compare the performance of the different available simulation methods in an objective and quantitative way. This works proposes a benchmarking system for MBS simulation tools. The system is made up by two components: (a) a collection of test problems with reference solutions and standardized procedures to measure computational efficiency; and (b) a web-based application to collect, organize and share information about performance of existing simulation methods. The benchmarking system has been applied to evaluate the performance of ADAMS/Solver, a popular MBS simulation tool.

Full text
Abstract:
In this paper, dynamic response analysis of a Floating Offshore Wind Turbine (FOWT) with Spar-type floating foundation is presented. The FOWT mounts a 100kW down-wind turbine, and is grid-connected. It was launched at sea on 9th June 2012, and moored on 11th for the purpose of the demonstration experiment. During the experiment, the FOWT was attacked by severe typhoon events twice. Among them, Sanba (international designation: 1216) was the strongest tropical cyclone worldwide in 2012. The central atmospheric pressure was 940 hPa when it was close to the FOWT, and the maximum significant wave height of 9.5m was recorded at the site. In this paper, the dynamic responses of the platform motion, the stresses at the tower sections and the chain tensions during the typhoon event, Sanba (1216), have been analyzed, and compared with the measured data. Through the comparison, validation of the numerical simulation tool (Adams with SparDyn developed by the authors) has been made.

Abstract:
In the chemical heat pipe concept, energy is transported long distances by using a high temperature heat source (e.g., a nuclear reactor) at the sender end to convert a mixture of gases (e.g., CO2 and CH4, or H2O and CH4) into an energy-rich combination (CO and H2), and then transporting the mixture by pipeline at close to room temperature to the receiver end. At the receiver end, the stored energy is released by the reverse reaction to generate steam or produce heat for process purposes. Candidate reactions for this system include the Hy-Co reaction (CO2 + CH4 = 2CO + 2H2) and the Eva-Adam reaction (CH4 + H2O = CO + 3H2). As written, these reactions are endothermic in the forward direction and exothermic in the reverse direction. In the Eva-Adam reaction, the forward conversion (steam or methane reforming) is favored by high temperatures and low pressures. For example, at a temperature of 1100 K and a pressure of 1 atmosphere, the degree of advancement in the forward direction is about 93%. The reverse conversion (methanation) is favored by low temperatures and high pressures. For example, at 800 K and 25 atmospheres, the degree of advancement in the reverse direction is about 95%. Thus, heat representing most of the heat of reaction can be made available at the sender end at a relatively high temperature. Since the system requires two pressure levels, compressors (and turbines to drive them) are necessary, as well as strategically placed heat exchangers. Thus results a closed cycle gas turbine system with a dissociating gas as the working fluid. This paper analyzes the Eva-Adam system and evaluates the energy-delivered to energy-supplied ratio. The efficiency is improved if the return pipeline is insulated.

Abstract:
The automatic gearshift algorithm and its dynamic control is an important research area in tracked vehicle design. In the paper the models of power train system such as engine, transfer gearbox, hydraulic torque converter, planetary gearbox, running gear propulsion system and virtual terrain are built. The program for gearshift algorithm design is developed. The model of designed gearshift algorithm is developed with MATLAB/simulink and finite state machine theory. The hydraulic control system is modeled with MATLAB/simulink and the oil pressures can be applied on the clutches and brakes of power train system. The planetary gearbox and other transmission parts are modeled through EASY5 power train library models and the gear contact stiffness, torsional stiffness of links between planetary gear sets and shafts are taken into consideration. The running gear system model are built with ADAMS, and the terrain loads from the interaction between terrain and tracks are applied on the sprocket extended to the power train, which considers the dynamic contacts among road wheel, track and terrain. Many terrain models including the slope, obstacle and road model with A, B, C, D etc. levels at different vehicle speeds can be built and integrated with the virtual prototyping models These different disciplinary models are integrated with MATLAB, ADAMS and EASY5 development environment and the virtual test can be done in various operation conditions. The integrated method is through the interfaces provided by these simulation software. It realizes the time synchronization between two different models of EASY5 and MATLAB/simulink with the digital electric circuit theory. The virtual test is been made in the integrated MATLAB/simulink development environment. The tracked vehicle's acceleration performance is simulated. The acceleration time from second gear to 32 km/h is about 14.5 seconds. Many other performances such as the virtual dynamic torque loads of rotating parts, the clutch torque capacity and the jerks of any parts in the power train can be obtained from simulation and can be verified with the physical tests later. There are some innovations in modeling method in this paper. Firstly, it builds many subsystem models with the virtual prototyping technology. Secondly, it builds the integration environment and interfaces. Many models of different areas are integrated to simulate transmission gearshift process. Thirdly, it provides a modeling method and environment for power train modeling and simulation. Fourthly, the acceleration performance of a tracked vehicle is simulated and the two results of virtual and physical tests are close.

Abstract:
Abstract In this paper, an attempt is made to model and study the planar and spatial dynamics of flexible elephant trunk-like manipulator by using multi-body dynamics software MSC-ADAMS. The flexible manipulator is modelled for bending with variable curvature. The entire manipulator length is divided into two sub-sections with associated lumped mass, damping and stiffness for the dynamic analysis. In this model, each section has three pressure actuated bellow tubes, which are modelled as simple spring-damper with the net mass distributed at the ends. Besides, a torsional spring-damper system is also incorporated in each section model to resist the bending about the transverse axes when the pressures in the bellow tubes are unequal. The manipulator is so designed that due to different actuation forces (corresponding to different bellows), the resultant action is finally a bending moment at the tip of each section. The effect of the gravitational force is also included. The change in behaviour of the end-effector position and orientation with respect to time is studied along with the elongation of bellow tubes. The nature of the velocity profile of the end-effector is also determined to study the behaviour of the manipulator.

Abstract:
The majority of the U.S. reactor fleet is applying for license renewal to extend the operating life from the current 40 years to 60 years, and there is now active interest in extending the operating life to beyond 60 years. Many plants are also applying for increases in power rating and both of these changes increases the need for an improved understanding of materials degradation. Many materials degrade over time and much is known about the degradation of materials under normal environmental conditions; however, less is known about the characteristics of materials degradation when the environment is subject to higher than normal radiological conditions over extended periods of time. Significant efforts are being made by industrial, academic and regulatory groups worldwide to identify, classify and mitigate potential problems arising from degradation of components in this context. From a regulatory perspective, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is very interested in being able to identify ways to ensure their licensees proactively manage the identification of materials degradation and the mitigation of its effects. To date, the NRC has consolidated “generic” programs for mitigating aging issues in the two volume Generic Aging Lessons Learned (GALL) Report (NUREG-1801) and has encouraged applicants for license renewal to use these programs where applicable in their plant when applying for renewal of their reactor’s license. The NRC has also published a comprehensive report entitled Expert Panel Report on Proactive Materials Degradation (NUREG/CR-6923) [3]. This report inventories the types of degradation mechanisms that could exist in each component of a light water reactor (LWR) and indicates how much is known about mitigating the effects within that context. Since the number of plant designs and materials used varies greatly within the U.S. fleet, there are many variations to implementing aging management programs (AMPs), requiring significant dialogs between the licensee and the NRC. These discussions are part of the licensing basis and as such are documented with up to multi-hundred page responses that are loosely coupled through the NRC Agency-wide Document Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS serves as an electronic records repository for the NRC. These discussions have supported revisions to the GALL, including the revision that is being prepared as this paper is being written. The NRC has sought the help of the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) to improve their staff’s ability to navigate the significant numbers of documents that are generated in this process. PNNL is also to provide a forum for regulators, licensees, and researchers to share knowledge in their efforts to improve the cyclic process for defining, applying, validating, and re-defining AMPs. Work to date in this area is publicly accessible, and this paper will describe that work and outline a potential path forward. The presenter will also demonstrate the capabilities of the PMMD information tools (http://pmmd.pnl.gov).

Abstract:
Kinematic chains or mechanisms have conventionally been analyzed comprising of links that behave as rigid members and links assumed to be built at nominal sizes. Such mechanisms, articulating entirely from rigid-body translations and/or rotations and nominally established links may not closely represent the actual real life manufactured parts with tolerances and joint clearances. It is important to identify the allowable variations in the linkages especially when the end-effector of the mechanism generates a path or a function and/or a tightly controlled gearing ratio or mechanical advantage is required. In this study, the band of solutions that can be obtained from the variation in lengths of linkages and the effect of stiffness is generated to better understand the quality of the mechanism performance. The application of four bar mechanism in an aileron trim tab system that utilizes a rotatory actuator to move the tab surface is used to demonstrate the band of solutions. Then CATIA V5 is used to layout the geometry and design the linkages within the prescribed airfoil. The MSC Adams is used to calculate the initial gearing ratio and for validation of values. A Matlab®code is developed and used to analyze the effects of the variation of lengths and stiffness of linkages on the tab speed using closed form algebraic solution. Finally, a comparison is made to illustrate and quantify the effects of link lengths and stiffness on the gearing ratio/mechanical advantage of the system.

Abstract:
This report examines the current interaction points between humans and autonomous systems, with a particular focus on advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), the requirements for human-machine interfaces as imposed by human perception, and finally, the progress being made to close the gap. Autonomous technology has the potential to benefit personal transportation, last-mile delivery, logistics, and many other mobility applications enormously. In many of these applications, the mobility infrastructure is a shared resource in which all the players must cooperate. In fact, the driving task has been described as a “tango” where we—as humans—cooperate naturally to enable a robust transportation system. Can autonomous systems participate in this tango? Does that even make sense? And if so, how do we make it happen?
