Abstract:
Abstract Alfred Lichtwark (1852–1914) was the first director (1886–1914) of the Hamburger Kunsthalle. At his personal instigation, a sculpture collection was founded. Focusing on contemporary sculpture, he became a pioneer in the museum world. Lichtwark aimed at introducing sculpture to a wider public: he considered contemporary medals and plaquettes to be the most suitable material for his purpose, and consequently he initiated the sculpture collection in 1891 by assembling ‘sculptures en miniature’ from Paris. In his practice he probed questions of the medals’ art historical context, as well as processes of making and display. When Lichtwark published his book on the revival of the medal – Die Wiedererweckung der Medaille – in 1897, his engagement and expertise in the field were already widely respected. While he is well known as an innovative museum director, his role as collector of contemporary sculpture has not been sufficiently appreciated. This paper suggests a re-evaluation of his achievements.

Abstract:
The Museum of Classical Archeology of the Imperial Academy of Sciences is the successor to the 18th-century Kunstkamera of the Academy of Sciences in term of collections of classical antiquities. This article discusses in detail the stages of development of the Museum of Classical Archaeology as an institution within the structure of the Academy of Sciences through the Cabinet of Medals and Rarities, Numismatic Museum, and the Museum of Classical Archaeology. The fund of the museum consisted of ancient Greek and Roman coins, ancient Russian coins, coins from oriental cultures, ancient Greek vases, antiquities from ornamental stone, glass, precious metals, impressions of medals and coins, items from archaeological excavations and treasures, manuscripts, drawings of objects and photographs. Special attention is paid to the correlation of the possibilities of museum collections of the Academy of Sciences and the Imperial Hermitage in terms of storage, exhibition, research, and promotion of archaeological collections in the second half of the 19th century. The reasons for the very active transfer of the Academy of Sciences’ archaeological collections to the Hermitage in the 19th century and the types of compensation received by the Academy for the collections are discussed. The first archaeological collections donated from the Academy of Sciences to the Hermitage on the initiative of the chairman of the Imperial Archaeological Commission S. G. Stroganov were the “Siberian collection” of Peter I and the Melgunov treasure. The collection of the Museum of Classical Archeology also attracted the attention of art critic I. V. Tsvetaev when arranging funds for the new Museum of Fine Arts at Moscow University. The article introduces into scientific circulation archival documents, showing the state of the museum work in the 19th century in the institution of the Academy of Sciences, documents depicting the structure of the Museum of Classical Archaeology, and the composition of collections.

Abstract:
The proliferation of digital cameras in commodity consumer devices, and the social trend for casually capturing and sharing media, has led to an explosive growth in personal visual media collections. However this wealth of digital material is infrequently accessed beyond the point of initial capture or sharing, and often lies dormant gathering digital dust in the media repository. This thesis proposes novel Computer Vision and Computer Graphics techniques to release the value in personal media collections - investigating new ways to stylise and present images and video in such collections. First, personal visual media tends to be shot casually in varied and challenging capture conditions by amateur operators. This necessitates some interactive manipulation prior to presentation. This thesis contributes a novel solution for editing such amateur home video into succinct clips of this nature, using a parse-tree representation of the video editing process. We also enable interactive manipulation o(~till images through a novel object segmentation algorithm dubbed TouchCut which enables object selection with a single touch and is intended for direct media manipulation on commodity media capture devices such as touch-screen digital cameras. Second, there is an interaction barrier to digital media. The casual nature of personal media encourages the capture of significantly larger collections than traditional media. This thesis explores the application of artistic stylisation to create digital ambient displays (DADs) of personal media in the style of cartoons, paintings and paper-cut out. Underpinning this contribution are two new algorithms for video segmentation that enforce temporal coherences within the stylised video. Furthermore, we explore how structuring the media collection hierarchically within the DAD can promote interest and engagement with the collection. Third, personal media collections often contains images of friends or family members. The artistic stylisation of such content using existing approaches rarely results in acceptable output. We propose a novel example-based approach to portrait stylisation driven by a high level model of facial structure that gives rise to improved aesthetics and enables the example-based rendering of a diverse range of portrait styles.

Abstract:
Sediments can act as both a sink for pollutants and a source for aquatic contaminants. Natural and human disturbances of the sediments can release the contaminants to the overlying water where bottom dwelling, or benthic, organisms may be exposed through direct contact, ingestion of sediment particles, or uptake of dissolved contaminants present in the water. Dredging, the most common remediation technology for heavy metals, exacerbates this process. The in situ use of emulsified metal has been studied for its ability to pull heavy metals from aqueous solution and from saturated soils. It has proven successful in the laboratory with removal of lead, cadmium, copper, nickel, and uranium from aqueous solution and removal of lead and cadmium from saturated spiked soils. The use of zero-valent metal particles, particularly those of zero-valent iron (Fe0), as an in situ remediation technique, is currently undergoing evaluation. The basic mechanism for removal appears to be reduction of contaminant metals followed by the subsequent precipitation of their insoluble forms. This is accompanied by the oxidation of the zero-valent metal. In the case of iron, Fe0 undergoes oxidation to Fe2+ and then to the Fe3+ state. Particulate Fe0 has been shown to precipitate Cr6+ to Cr3+ and Pb2+ undergoes reduction to Pb0. Initially, zero-valent iron filings were used to reduce the metal contaminants, but it has been shown that smaller size iron particles, such as nano-scale iron, have higher initial reduction rates as well as a higher concentration of contaminant removal per mole of iron. Emulsion liquid membrane (ELM) technology has been employed as a remediation technique for the removal of metals from wastewater where extraction and stripping processes are performed in a single operation. The ELMs are made by forming an emulsion between two immiscible liquids, such as oil and water, and are often stabilized by a surfactant. We have attempted to demonstrate the application of the combination of these two technologies through the use of emulsified zero-valent metal (EZVM) to treat sediments with heavy metal contamination. Emulsions were prepared using vegetable oil, water, Span 85, and either nanoscale Fe, 1-3 [micro]m Fe, 4 [micro]m Mg, or a 20 wt % Fe-Mg mixture. The results presented in this study demonstrate that EZVM is a viable technique for in situ remediation of heavy metals in sediments. Laboratory scale studies have shown high levels of removal of lead and cadmium from solution using emulsified zero-valent iron. Additionally, the use of emulsified magnesium has shown the ability for high levels of removal of copper, cadmium, nickel, lead, and uranium from solution. A variety of solution matrices were also explored for a lead solution including seawater, the presence of complexing agents and humic acids. Small-scale laboratory studies have shown 65% removal of lead and 45% removal of cadmium from saturated, spiked soils. A bench scale test to demonstrate the applicability of this technique in the environment revealed similar results for the removal of lead.<br>M.S.<br>Department of Chemistry<br>Arts and Sciences<br>Industrial Chemistry

Abstract:
Three-dimensional (3D) metal photonic crystals (MPCs) can exhibit interesting electromagnetic properties such as ultra-wide photonic or "plasmonic" band gaps, selectively tailored thermal emission, extrinsically modified absorption, and negative refractive index. Yet, optical-wavelength 3D MPCs remain relatively unexplored due to the challenges posed by their fabrication. This work explores the use of multi-photon direct laser writing (DLW) coupled with electroless metallization as a means for preparing MPCs. Multi-photon DLW was used to prepare polymeric photonic crystal (PC) templates having a targeted micron-scale structure and form. MPCs were then created by metallizing the polymeric PCs via wet-chemical electroless deposition. The electromagnetic properties of the polymeric PCs and the metallized structures were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. It is shown that metallization transforms the optical properties of the structures from those of conventional 3D dielectric PCs to those consistent with 3D MPCs that exhibit ultra-wide photonic band gaps. These data demonstrate that multi-photon DLW followed by electroless deposition provides a viable and highly flexible route to MPCs, opening a new path to metal photonic materials and devices.<br>M.S.<br>Optics and Photonics<br>Optics and Photonics<br>Optics MS

Abstract:
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have captured a great deal of attention worldwide since their discovery in 1991. CNTs are considered to be the stiffest and strongest material due to their perfect atomic arrangement and intrinsic strong in-plane sp[super]2--sp[super]2 covalent bonds between carbon atoms. In addition to mechanical properties, CNTs have also shown exceptional chemical, electrical and thermal properties. All these aspects make CNTs promising candidates in the development of novel multi-functional nanocomposites. Utilizing CNTs as fillers to develop advanced nanocomposites still remains a challenge, due to the lack of fundamental understanding of both material processing at the nanometer scale and the resultant material properties. In this work, a new model was developed to investigate the amount of control specific parameters have on the mechanical properties of CNT composites. The new theory can be used to guide the development of advanced composites using carbon nanotubes, as well as other nano-fibers, with any matrices (ceramic, metal, or polymer). Our study has shown that the varying effect based on changes in CNT dimensions and concentration fit the model predictions very well. Metallic CNT composites using both single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT), have been developed through a novel electrochemical co-deposition process. Copper and nickel matrix composites were developed by using pulse-reverse electrochemical co-deposition. Uniaxial tensile test results showed that a more than 300% increase in strength compared to that of the pure metal had been achieved. For example, the ultimate tensile strength of Ni/CNTs composites reached as high as about 2GPa. These are best experimental results ever reported within this field.; The mechanical results are mainly attributed to the good interfacial bonding between the CNTs and the metal matrices and good dispersion of carbon nanotubes within the matrices. Experimental results have also shown that the strength is inversely dependent on the diameter of carbon nanotubes. In addition to the mechanical strength, carbon nanotube reinforced metallic composites are excellent multifunctional materials in terms of electrical and thermal conduction. The electrical resistivity of carbon nanotube/copper composites produces electrical resistivity of about 1.0~1.2 x10[super]-6ohm-cm, which is about 40% less than the pure copper. The reduced electrical resistivity is also attributed to the good interfacial bonding between carbon nanotubes and metal matrices, realized by the electrochemical co-deposition.<br>ID: 028916756; System requirements: World Wide Web browser and PDF reader.; Mode of access: World Wide Web.; Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Central Florida, 2010.; Includes bibliographical references (p. 95-105).<br>Ph.D.<br>Doctorate<br>Department of Mechanical, Materials and Aerospace Engineering<br>Engineering and Computer Science

Abstract:
Magnesium (Mg) Metal matrix composites (MMCs) reinforced by ceramic reinforcements are being developed for a variety of applications in automotive and aerospace because of their strength-to-weight ratio. Reinforcement being considered includes SiC, Al2O3, Carbon fiber and B4C in order to improve the mechanical properties of MMCs. Microstructural and interfacial characteristics of MMCs can play a critical role in controlling the MMCs' mechanical properties. This study was carried out to understand the microstructural and interfacial development between Mg-9wt.Al-1wt.Zn (AZ91) alloy matrix and several reinforcements including SiC, Al2O3, Carbon fibers and B4C. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy was employed to investigate the microstructure and interfaces. Al increase in hardness due to the presence of reinforcements was also documented via Vicker's hardness measurements. Thermodynamic consideration based on Gibbs free energy was employed along with experimental results to describe the interfacial characteristics of MMCs. Reaction products from AZ91-SiC and AZ91-Al2O3 interfaces were identified as MgO, since the surface of SiC particles is typically covered with SiO2 and the MgO is the most thermodynamically stable phase in these systems. The AZ91-Carbon fiber interface consist of Al4C3 and this carbide phase is considered detrimental to the mechanical toughness of MMCs. The AZ91-B4C interface was observed to contain MgB2 and MgB2C2. In general, Vicker's hardness increased by 3X due to the presence of these reinforcements.<br>ID: 031001275; System requirements: World Wide Web browser and PDF reader.; Mode of access: World Wide Web.; Adviser: Yongho Sohn.; Title from PDF title page (viewed February 22, 2013).; Thesis (M.S.M.S.E.)--University of Central Florida, 2012.; Includes bibliographical references (p. 49-51).<br>M.S.M.S.E.<br>Masters<br>Materials Science Engineering<br>Engineering and Computer Science<br>Materials Science and Engineering

Abstract:
Recent advances in surface science technology have opened new opportunities for atomic scale studies in the field of nanoparticle (NP) catalysis. The 2007 Nobel Prize of Chemistry awarded to Prof. G. Ertl, a pioneer in introducing surface science techniques to the field of heterogeneous catalysis, shows the importance of the field and revealed some of the fundamental processes of how chemical reactions take place at extended surfaces. However, after several decades of intense research, fundamental understanding on the factors that dominate the activity, selectivity, and stability (life-time) of nanoscale catalysts are still not well understood. This dissertation aims to explore the basic processes taking place in NP catalyzed chemical reactions by systematically changing their size, shape, oxide support, and composition, one factor at a time. Low temperature oxidation of CO over gold NPs supported on different metal oxides and carbides (SiO2, TiO2, TiC, etc.) has been used as a model reaction. The fabrication of nanocatalysts with a narrow size and shape distribution is essential for the microscopic understanding of reaction kinetics on complex catalyst systems ("real-world" systems). Our NP synthesis tools are based on self-assembly techniques such as diblock-copolymer encapsulation and nanosphere lithography. The morphological, electronic and chemical properties of these nanocatalysts have been investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and temperature-programmed desorption (TPD). Chapter 1 describes briefly the basic principles of the instrumentation used within this experimental dissertation. Since most of the state-of-art surface science characterization tools provide ensemble-averaged information, catalyst samples with well defined morphology and structure must be available to be able to extract meaningful information on how size and shape affect the physical and chemical properties of these structures. In chapter 2, the inverse-micelle encapsulation and nanosphere lithography methods used in this dissertation for synthesizing uniformly arranged and narrow size- and shape-selected spherical and triangular NPs are described. Chapter 3 describes morphological changes on individual Au NPs supported on SiO2 as function of the annealing temperature and gaseous environment. In addition, NP mobility is monitored. Chapter 4 explores size-effects on the electronic and catalytic properties of size-selected Au NPs supported on a transition metal carbide, TiC. The effect of interparticle interactions on the reactivity and stability (catalyst lifetime) of Au NPs deposited on TiC is discussed in chapter 5. Size and support effects on the formation and thermal stability of Au2O3, PtO and PtO2 on Au and Pt NPs supported on SiO2, TiO2 and ZrO2 is investigated in chapter 6. Emphasis is given to gaining insight into the role of the NP/support interface and that played by oxygen vacancies on the stability of the above metal oxides. Chapter 7 reports on the formation, thermal stability, and vibrational properties of mono- and bimetallic AuxFe1-x (x = 1, 0.8, 0.5, 0.2, 0) NPs supported on TiO2(110).

Abstract:
An experimental setup has been designed and fabricated for the analysis of filtration performance of the metal fiber filter as applied to Filtered Containment Venting System (FCVS). The main characteristic of this test facility is the presence of the aerosol and Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer. The objective is to investigate the removal performance of the metal fiber filter for aerosol, as well as further understand the filtration process in the metal fiber filter. It is observed that the metal fiber filter is capable of removing more than 99.955% aerosols at the desired flow rate ranging from 0.17 m/s to 0.3 m/s and the resistance has a significant linear correlation with flow rate. Due to the electrostatic effect, diffusion effect, inertia effect, interception effect and gravity effect, most penetrating particle size plays a significant role in removal performance of the metal fiber filter for aerosol. It is also found that with aerosol size ranging from 0.1 μ m to 0.3μm in most penetrating particle size, the filtration efficiency is more than 99.8% at the flow rate of 0.25 m/s. From this study, valuable reference data and useful information are provided for practical applications.

Abstract:
Orthogonal metal cutting allows the collection of force data in the laboratory in an analytical manner not practical during industrial applications. Orthogonal tube turning (OTT) allows the collection of force data at much higher speeds than the original methods used by Ernst and Merchant. An orthogonal tube turning apparatus was constructed and validated in order to study the effects of rake angle, uncut chip thickness and cutting environments on the tool forces and the wear of the tool face itself. Although there have been many studies which characterized the forces and the surface finish of the part machined, along with some version of tool life, this study is unique in that the wear of the tool face itself is characterized in a detailed analysis of variance (ANOVA) study. A widely utilized commercial water based product performed less well than either nitrogen gas or cold shop compressed air. Surface roughness of the tool was used to parameterize tool surface finish for cutting each factor level combination of the experiment.
