Abstract:
The craft and art of plastering has played an important role in internal and external spaces of historical and modern constructive components. This elegant industry is always flaunted on walls and ceilings to take part in decoration of the monument. Plastering is another field of decorative, which is used along with other kinds of decorative arts such as tile, sculpture and woodcarving, that are often over seen in modern and classic buildings nowadays. Goal: The assessment is on cornice engraving methods and its designs in Herat Buildings and complexes. This article stated various methods of engraving on gypsum, as well as designs applied by this art and craft in Herat buildings in a clear and comprehensive way. The research method is based on library and field studies. In library methods the focus is on using of authentic scientific reference books and field studies methods is an emphasis on observation and taking photos of gypsum decorations by the researcher, applied on modern and classic buildings of Herat. And finally the results of the study show that art and craft of plastering in Herat buildings and complexes has been applied in various positions by different methods while containing variable decorative elements.

Abstract:
Often, carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) manufacturing represents an expensive, time-consuming, small-scale production due to products and components characterized by complex geometric properties. In the field of orthopedic products individual molds, usually made of metal alloys or plaster, are necessary to shape the contour of the components. The presented case study focuses on individually manufactured masks for post-operative treatment of uncomplicated midfacial fractures that are frequent and typical injuries in popular contact sports like football or handball. To improve the costly process of CFRP production of individually manufactured masks, this paper describes the advantages of the combination of optical metrology (i.e. 3D-scanning) and additive manufacturing (i.e. 3D-printing). Therefore, the conventional process chain consisting of the main process steps molding (master pattern), casting (mold), CFRP laminating, curing, cutting and final assembly is replaced by 3D-scanning (instead of master pattern), followed by the revision of the CAD-model (to prevent cutting efforts), 3D-printing (mold), CFRP laminating, curing and final assembly. Summarizing, this case study on manufacturing of carbon fiber reinforced plastic orthopedics shows that the combination of innovative manufacturing technologies opens up new possibilities to increase efficiency in craft based manufacturing.

AbstractA number of recent works have explored the value of scholarly efforts to “unpack” museum collections and examine the constitutive networks and histories of objects. The interrogations of collections through methods such as object biographies and itineraries imparts important knowledge about the institutions, disciplines, and individuals who made museum collections, contribute to deeper understandings of the roles of objects in creating meaning in and of the world, and suggest implications for future practice and policies. This article examines the object itinerary of a cultural property item of negative heritage: a three-dimensional painted plaster work of craft-art originally designed to symbolize the scientific practice of anthropology in early twentieth-century Germany and later associated with wartime collecting during World War II, the history of American archaeology, and the modern repatriation movement in museums.

Abstract:
Serbian fi gured gingerbreads owned by the Russian Museum of Ethnography are described, the history of the collection is provided, and its cultural meaning is evaluated. Ethnographic parallels are analyzed, and archaic examples are cited. The custom of baking gingerbread results from the commercialization of the agricultural tradition of baking ritual bread. In terms of cultural anthropology, the question may be raised whether the replacement of destroyed originals by plaster replicas preserves the information potential and ethnographic value of the collection. Its interpretation is relevant to national identity in new Balkan nations such as Slovenia, Croatia, and Serbia. Another problem is if and how a craft shared by several peoples can be an ethnic marker. In terms of ethnographic museology in the globalizing world, the prospects of acquiring recent collections are discussed. The role of such collections in constructing new national identities may be considerable.

Abstract:
Abstract Currently, people are starting to reduce the use of traditional products and switch to ready-to-use products made from plastic, such as teapots. Nevertheless, clay crafts still maintain their existence in the widespread use of plastic products. Bayat is one of the subdistricts in Klaten Regency, Central Java, which is famous for its ceramics and pottery craft centres. Most artisans in the Bayat make crafts with clay as raw materials. This research focused on the advantages of Bayat pottery over other plastic products. This study aimed to increase public awareness to reduce plastic products’ use in daily life. This study used the descriptive qualitative method. The research was conducted in Bayat, Klaten, from March – June 2022. The results showed that clay crafts were considered more eco-friendly than plastic products. The development of Bayat pottery from clay has implications for design, function, usability, and environmental aspects. In the design aspect, the Bayat teapot can increase the aesthetic value of the craft. In terms of function and usability, the clay teapot functions as a water storage container as well as interior decoration. Meanwhile, in the environmental aspect, raw clay materials are easier to decompose, while plastic products are difficult to decompose.

Abstract:
Making crafts with floral motifs from plastic bottle waste by Apikes Iris students for residents around Mount Panggilun. The data collection techniques used were observation, interviews and documentation. The research subjects are students. The results of the research show that making crafts with floral motifs from waste plastic bottles uses materials and tools, where the materials are large and small plastic bottles of various shapes, paint and water, while the tools used are scissors, cutting knives, brushes. , pot, bucket. The process of making crafts from plastic bottle waste goes through several stages, namely obtaining materials, processing materials, the process of making stems and the final stage (finishing). Crafts with flower motifs from plastic bottle waste by Apikes Iris students for the residents of Mount Panggiun are an example of a plastic recycling process which aims to change the use of plastic items so that they remain useful. The manufacturing process is done by hand using simple tools and carrying out productive efforts with the principle of togetherness. The results of handicrafts with floral motifs from waste plastic bottles are creative decorative objects. Visually, this product has a basic flower shape with various patterns and different sizes. The colors used are bright and attract attention, such as red, yellow, blue, pink and golden yellow, some of the patterns are wavy like leaves and also sharp. The motifs are in the form of small circles, leaves, flower petals and lines. This craft work, apart from having aesthetic value, also has economic value.

Abstract:
Entre 1880 y 1933, en algunas partes de Europa, principalmente en Inglaterra y en Alemania, surgieron unas escuelas, a priori dedicadas a las artes plásticas, el diseño y la arquitectura, en las que se emplearon herramientas más bien propias de las artes escénicas. Este trabajo está encaminado a averiguar cuál era la función que ocupaba lo teatral dentro de las pedagogías de maestros como: Charles Ashbee, Josef Maria Olbrich, Peter Behrens, Henri van de Velde, Hermann Muthesius, Johannes Itten, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, Vasili Kandinsky, Lothar Schreyer u Oskar Schlemmer, en el contexto de sus respectivas escuelas: la Guild and School of Handicraft, la Colonia de Darmstadt, la Escuela de Artes visuales de Weimar, las escuelas vinculadas a la Werkbund o la Bauhaus. A partir de la investigación se ha podido concluir que lo teatral se empleó principalmente por su capacidad para conectar distintos saberes artísticos, por su potencial a la hora de favorecer el trabajo conjunto, por su dimensión móvil y por su condición efímera. A la hipótesis de partida se han añadido dos funcionalidades más. La primera refiere al conocimiento de lo teatral como una forma de favorecer la aptitud técnica para el diseño de edificios teatrales y de escenografías. Y, la segunda, a su capacidad para funcionar como ejemplo de modelos teóricos o como material didáctico dentro de determinadas pedagogías artísticas. Esta tesis, además, ha permitido trazar una genealogía de lo teatral en las instituciones de estudio, así como de las principales escuelas o proyectos que surgieron y que, incluidos en los contextos artísticos transversales de estudio, estuvieron encaminados a la formación actoral. Adicionalmente, esta tesis incluye tres anexos que, a su vez, dejan abiertas nuevas líneas de investigación derivadas de cada una de las tres partes en las que está estructurado este trabajo.
Between 1880 and 1933, in some parts of Europe, mainly in England and Germany, schools dedicated to plastic arts, design and architecture began using theatrical tools as a method of teaching. My thesis is an analysis of the role played by those theatrical methodologies within the pedagogies of teachers such as: Charles Ashbee, Josef Maria Olbrich, Peter Behrens, Henri van de Velde, Hermann Muthesius, Johannes Itten, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, Vasili Kandinsky , Lothar Schreyer and Oskar Schlemmer; in the context of their respective schools: the Guild and School of Handicraft, the Cologne of Darmstadt, the School of Visual Arts in Weimar, and the schools linked to the Werkbund and the Bauhaus. My research concludes that performing art classes were used mainly to connect diverse artistic expertise and promote team work, due to their fluid dimension and ephemeral condition. Two other functionalities have been added to this hypothesis. The first one proves that the understanding of theatrical performance favors the design of performing art facilities and theatrical sets. The second functionality suggests the capacity of those learning tools to act as theoretical models and didactic material within certain artistic pedagogies. This thesis also traces a genealogy of the use of theater in the mentioned institutions, and the specific acting programs that were developed as a result of their implementation. In addition, I include three annexes which will lead to further research and discoveries in the field of using theater as a teaching tool.

Abstract:
The earliest examples of “art films,” which date from the first two decades of the twentieth century, had monuments and public sculptures as their subject. While often being actualities showing inaugurations of public statues, many of these films focus on the social event of the ceremony rather than the sculptures themselves, but some films did give attention to the plastic qualities of the sculptures in natural light.3 While a cinematic reproduction of a painting seemed useless or redundant, the medium of film was considered perfect for visualizing threedimensional artworks, which necessitate a moving approach to grasp their different angles and spatial dimension. Likewise, German art film pioneer Hans Cürlis, who founded the Institut für Kulturforschung in 1919 in order to develop and propagate film as a mediator for art, considered paintings highly “unfilmic.”4 Throughout the 1920s, Cürlis made several films that consist of static shots of sculptures rotating on their axis, grouped under titles such as “Heads,” “Negro Sculpture,” “Old-German Madonnas,” “German Saints,” “Kleinplastik,” “Indian Crafts,” or “East-Asian Crafts.” Other landmark art documentaries produced before the Second World War also focused on sculpture.

Abstract:
In early 2020, sea trials carried out in some interisland high-speed boats in Galápagos confirmed the need to improve the comfort of the passengers during those trips. Results from those tests showed very high levels of vertical acceleration which, according to ISO 2631 standard, provoke high negative effects on the passengers, as was directly observed. This project aims to design at conceptual level a fiberglass reinforced plastic high-speed boat including flaps, with minimum vertical acceleration while also considering the boat resistance. The design variables considered were length, beam, longitudinal position of the center of gravity, hull deadrise angle, flap deflection angle and its chord. In addition, the constraints considered were dynamic trim angle for porpoising, length-beam ratio, metacentric height, freeboard, and required area for passengers. A multi-objective optimization method available in pymoo, an open-source Python-based framework, was employed along with an open-source planing craft hydrodynamic evaluation framework, OpenPlaning The resistance was evaluated with a combination of semiempirical formulations with a prismatic hull assumption that included the effect of waves, whisker spray and flaps; while the vertical acceleration was estimated with formulations from lab tests based on significant wave height. To estimate the Pareto front, the NSGA-II (Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm) optimization algorithm is chosen considering the complex relations and number of design variables. First, the benefits of including flaps to reduce the boat planing angle, and as result a reduction in the motion acceleration were confirmed. Also, results show that sea performance of the boat is highly affected by CG position, deadrise angle and angle of flap. The combination of these parameters that helps to reduce the acceleration objective function are identified. Finally, the estimated Pareto front identifies a set of solutions, which shows that the acceleration could be reduced by up to 45% and the resistance to advance of the boat by 7% with the increase of some design variables.

Abstract:
This upper-storey unit, or apartment, was accessed through entranceway I 10,5, which consists of a stairway between the two rooms of Unit I 10,6. Eleven masonry steps of this stairway remain. According to Ling, the apartment consisted of a room above the rear room of Unit I 10,6 (room 6A) and rooms above rooms 5–7 of the Casa del Menandro. Elia reported a semi-elliptical lararium niche (dimensions: 1.77 m × 0.65 m, d.: 150 mm) at the foot of the stairs, painted with a green festoon and red and yellow flowers. However, it is not certain that this decoration would identify it as a lararium. A downpipe in the north-east corner of room 6A in Unit I 10,6 has been used as evidence for the presence of a latrine in the upper room although this could equally have been for roof drainage. The only finds conceivably from this apartment, were a bronze buckle and possibly those items recorded above room 5 of the Casa del Menandro (cat. nos. 908–917a). There is insufficient evidence to substantiate its identification as a brothel. This was an area with a wide opening onto the street to the north of this insula. The pavement was of mortar and the walls were furbished with a high cocciopesto socle with coarse plaster above. In the south-west corner is a rectangular structure consisting of two low walls which enclosed two basins (each 1.05 m × 0.88 m) cut into the pavement, with a large drainage channel in front. Ling identifies these as washing-basins. The loose finds in this room, at pavement level, consisted of: two rectangular marble bases, likely to have been for display furniture such as marble tables or basins; four larger rectangular marble bases possibly for statuary; three other cylindrical marble supports; and a small marble capital. A clay lamp was also found in the entranceway, in the volcanic deposit. Elia interpreted the structure in the south-west corner as a ‘saltus fullonicus’, thus identifying this establishment as a fullers’ workshop. Ling points out that these basins ‘could have been used in various crafts’ and he suggests, on the basis of the stone pieces, that this was the workshop of a specialist stone-carver.

Abstract:
Resumen: El “mouleur” Charles Lasnon representa la convivencia que durante el primer tercio del siglo XX se dará entre las Artes y Oficios y las nuevas técnicas de representación vinculadas a la fotografía. Lasnon realizará para Le Corbusier una serie de maquetas que presentarán sus propuestas a escala doméstica y urbana, primera aproximación a una expresión tridimensional de sus teorías: los modelos 1:20 de los Salones de Otoño en 1922 y 1923, a camino entre el objet-type y la escultura de vanguardia, y las del “Urbanisme á trois dimensions” del Plan Obus y Nemours. Las maquetas de las Villas se establecerán como “manifiestos estéticos y arquitectónicos”. En ellas se ensayarán principios teóricos plásticos, previos incluso a una idea de construcción, indagaciones que abren la puerta a transferencias entre la representación a escala realizada en yeso y la arquitectura a realizar. Por otra parte, la vinculación de Lasnon con el Service Geographique de l’Armée le familiarizará con las nuevas técnicas de representación del territorio. Así, realizará los Carte-Relief de Argel coetáneamente a la ejecución de las maquetas de las propuestas urbanas argelinas de Le Corbusier, garantes no sólo del rigor geométrico de sus postulados: quedan en ellas registradas el paisaje original, cuya topografía se modela y manipula como si de un trabajo plástico se tratara. Utopías en busca de un lugar imaginado sobre un trozo de yeso. Abstract: Charles Lasnon, "mouleur",represents the coexistence between the Arts and Crafts and the new rendering techniques related to photography that took place in the first quarter of the twentieth century. Commissioned by Le Corbusier, Lasnon made in those years several models that represent his new proposals at a domestic and urban scale. That was the first approach to a three-dimensional expression of his theories –the scale models of 1:20 from "Salon d'Automne" in 1922 and 1923, which were halfway between objet-types and avant-garde sculptures, and the theories of "L'Urbanisme à trois dimensions" from Plan Obus and Nemours. The scale-models of "Villas" were established as “aesthetic and architectural manifestos”. They were used to test theoretical and plastic principles, formulated before the idea of construction. These tests resulted in "transfers" between plaster-craft scale models and the architecture to be built. Additionally, the links between Lasnon and the “Service Geographique de l’Armée” enabled him to be familiar with new techniques to represent landscape. Thus, Lasnon made the Carte-Reliefs d'Argel at the same time as Le Corbusier made the models for the urban proposals in Alger. These models not only guarantee the geometrical accuracy of his proposals, but also capture an original landscape whose topography is modeled as if it was a plastic craftwork.

Abstract:
Architectural design research on local materials and vernacular building is increasingly moving toward an integrated model of design-build optimizing processes of digital modeling and fabrication. Conversely, this paper details a low-tech—though high-performance—alternative: exploring the construction of architectural structures using mass- produced, recycled paper products to offer a promising avenue toward grassroots sustainability as it intersects with circular economy and sustainable craft. Informed by architectural histories of environmentalism, the paper presents design research, architectural applications, and construction logistics in the form of documentation and discussion of two recently fabricated domestic prototypes and one speculative housing proposal, all tested at sites in the extreme climate of the American Southwest.The first prototype documented investigates the application of paper strips soaked in non-toxic adhesive as casting material for convexo-concave thin-shell structures—show- casing the use of paper as a primary construction material using an inventive process that reduces material waste by half and limits the need for industrial equipment. The second prototype examines the usefulness of paper pulp as a facade solution applied similarly to stucco or plaster—yet offering a more renewable alternative. Lastly, the paper imagines speculative futures in which these technologies can become implemented at large scales to create resilient, Zero-Carbon Communities as safer and healthier alternatives for the environment and users.

Abstract:
Abstract When designing and manufacturing an air or space craft, material selection is very important. Each material selected for the vessel will have different purposes including strength or hull integrity, support, and insulation. No matter what the material’s purpose is, however, the material must be light in order to reduce the force required to achieve lift thus reducing the cost of fuel as fuel is one of the highest costs for air and space travel. Soft metamaterials could be an option to fill some of the roles in manufacturing of air and space craft. While soft metamaterials will not be able to replace steel that forms the hull or supporting structures, they have other possible applications. Soft metamaterials are highly resistant to plastic deformation and are effective acoustic dampeners. Soft metamaterials could be used to insulate the cockpit of a flying vessel to dampen noise and provide some protection from any impact forces that may occur. The objective of this paper is to explore the viability of the application of a soft metamaterial to the aerospace and space industry. The metamaterial in question is manufactured using a mixture of Eccoflex 00-30 and Dragonskin 20 by Smooth-On Inc. in a honeycomb composite structure. The final soft composite material is tested for its mechanical properties including its tensile strength, compressive strength, and its fatigue strength. For the tensile tests, the material is formed into an ASTM D638 shape and stretched until failure in accordance with the ASTM standards. After these physical tests are conducted, a finite element study is analyzed in ANSYS and the results are compared with the physical test results. The model used for the finite element analysis is the neo-Hookean model for elastic materials.

Abstract:
Venice can be regarded as a test bed for any preservation strategy. From its very origins, the city has always had to withstand hostile environmental conditions, such as unstable soil, overflowing tides, and rising damp. Hence traditional materials and techniques are the result of a thousand-year-old selection aimed at improving their durability. Since the end of the nineteenth century, however, historical surfaces have been progressively replaced by new short-lasting plasters, following the trend of systematic refurbishment meant to maximize economic output with disregard for good practices. As tourism became the driving force of a social, cultural, and architectural transformation, a sharp decrease in local population and craftsmanship has caused the loss of traditional know-how, leading to irreversible decline and low-quality interventions. All this makes it necessary to reconsider the use of traditional materials and building skills, trusting, once again, in the Venetian craftsmen who are the repositories of local material culture and in the intangible know-how that can be crucial in protecting the city’s tangible built heritage. Joint efforts between the Iuav and local craftsmen are now underway in this regard. This synergy is making it possible to readdress an operational approach in which preservation is understood as the broadest possible care-for practice capable of providing continuous maintenance and control over architectural variances. Urgent too is the need to transfer traditional know-how from the elder custodians to the younger generations who will have the cultural and operational task of safeguarding Venice’s future. Finally, fostering traditional good practices may also help develop local, cost-effective, site-specific efforts capable of promoting positive economic-and-social reversion. Reintroducing traditional high-quality materials and artisan skills, together with controlled, compatible innovation, should be regarded as a sort of living idea of tradition, connecting past and future in protecting Venice’s material authenticity – its main tangible resource and a specific requisite for a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Abstract:
The present work focuses on the shaping craft of shape memory alloy metal rubber (SMAMR) and its temperature dependent mechanical properties. Heat treatment process was conducted to form a stable SMAMR sample beyond the general procedure of metal rubber (MR) in order to resist the shape memory effect (SME). The influence of the heat treatment procedure on the mechanical properties was tested. The quasi-static experimental investigations were carried out to obtain the storage modulus and energy loss factor varying with the structural parameter, strain amplitude, and material temperature. It is found from the experiment results that the SMAMR sample which underwent the heat treatment was able to remember its original moulding shape and recover from the overloading plastic deformation when heated above the phase transition temperature. For comparison, another sample without the heat treatment was heated to the same temperature after the plastic deformation, but the final shape deviated from the original one. It is also confirmed that the heat treatment procedure obviously increased the storage modulus and loss factor of SMAMR. Just like the variety elastic modulus of shape memory alloy (SMA), the storage modulus of SMAMR increased obviously while the material was heated above the phase transformation temperature due to the elastic modulus change of SMA wire. The quasi-static experiments showed a hysteretic property of the stress–strain curve in a certain temperature. But the hysteretic curve was temperature and structural parameter dependent. It is concluded that the heat treatment process is necessary to obtain a stable SMAMR during the phase transformation. The varying storage modulus and superior loss factor performances of SMAMR make itself a kind of attractive functional material which will be available in the active suppression of vibration. For example, it can be fabricated to a rotor bearing with changeable stiffness and damping, which is of practical significance in the active control of synchronous vibration of rotors crossing resonance condition.

Abstract:
The amount of organic and inorganic waste which has not been appropriately managed has become a global problem. The zero-waste system can then be a solution to waste problems. The zero-waste system must be implemented to protect areas with valuable natural and cultural resources. For instance, it could be implemented in the ecotourism area of Kebonagung village, Imogiri District, Yogyakarta. This educational program aims to provide understanding and upgrading skills related to the zero-waste system by creating a waste-free ecotourism area. This program will be conducted from December 2021 to September 2022 through socialization, waste treatment training and application, and evaluation monitoring. This program resulted in the socialization implementation of inorganic waste processing, liquid organic fertilizer, home-grown vegetables, Mina-padi (rice-fish farming), biogas, and Black Soldier Fly (maggot) larvae cultivation—which is the main focus of this program. Waste system training and application are carried out by turning plastic bottles into crafts, building Omah Maggot (a maggot breeding ground), also maggot cultivation training, monitoring, and guidance. This maggot cultivation could accommodate up to four kilograms of organic waste per day, along with a half kilogram of harvested maggot that could be harvested as fish seed. The remaining organic waste, known as kasgot, can be used as plant fertilizer. From evaluation to in-depth interviews, it is known that the community understands the zero-waste system concept and application. Yet, they lacked the organic waste handling experience for maggot, and no group yet can handle inorganic waste processing. From the results obtained, it can be concluded that this program received positive support and responses from the community that has gained knowledge and skills related to a zero-waste system toward creating a waste-free area.
