Abstract:
This research describes the types and function of reference in a short story book written by Christine Lindop under the title The Bridge and Other Love Stories. This research applies discourse analysis, especially on the reference. The study used a qualitative descriptive approach. The data source of this research is a short story telling about the bridge and love stories that happened. The data of this research are words, phrases, and sentences contained in a short story. The results of this research show that the types of reference used in the short story include personal reference, demonstrative reference, definite article reference and comparative reference. Meanwhile, the function of reference is to risk word repetition, to show the close of scale, and to compare things or situations.

Abstract:
This article introduces the reader to the work of Australian verbatim theater artists Donna Jackson, Bindi Cole Chocka, and James Henry. It describes the artists’ remount of Vicki Reynolds’s verbatim play The Bridge, which tells the story of the collapse of the Melbourne West Gate Bridge in 1970. I discuss the remount of the play as an intergenerational verbatim theater project which not only tells an important story from Australian working-class history to new audiences who haven’t heard it before, but also deepens the story through additional research and music. I also discuss the play as a project that uses political truths from the past to do new political work in the present.

Abstract:
The paper analyzes the story of Ivo Andrić The Bridge on the Žepa in the interpretive key of hermeneutic narrative ethics. The goals of the work were multiple. The first goal was to look at and explain the mentioned theoretical-analytical framework, which has not been the subject of the study within the Bosnian-Herzegovinian literary-theoretical discourse. The reason why hermeneutic narrative ethics is presented is that it, as a new, insufficiently known approach to storytelling, enables new readings of narrative texts. This goal was realized by presenting the methodological apparatus of this framework, which includes the following concepts: ethical potentials of storytelling, sense of the possible, historical imagination, dialogicity, subversive narrative understanding, awareness of other people’s perspectives, ethical search. These concepts are applied in the second part of the paper, which offers a new reading of the short story The Bridge on the Žepa. The main hypothesis of the paper is that Andrić’s story develops certain ethical potentials of storytelling. The paper showed that the stated interpretive approach with its methodological apparatus enables the understanding of the ethical potentials of Andrić’s story The Bridge on the Žepa, which were not the subject of literary criticism. The analysis also revealed that the narrative of the circumstances of the construction of the magnificent bridge in Žepa is a means of understanding the individual and wider cultural past of characters whose lives took place in the space of possibilities of a particular historical world, and that the story is a form of ethical search, which develops the ethos of dialogue because it encourages the dialogic conception of narration.

Abstract: The theme of the devil offering to build a bridge in one night in exchange for the soul of the victim has a considerable presence in folk narrative and is widespread internationally. An analysis of the 27 Catalan versions featuring «the devil as bridge builder» as their protagonist shows that these stories vary in nature and can be presented in the form of legend, folktale or etiological story.

Abstract:
A great number of reinforced concrete bridges in Australia are in excess of 30 years old and beginning to show signs of distress. The vehicle loads carried by these structures have increased since their construction and will continue to increase in the future. A rational procedure for inspection, testing and analysis of these bridges is vital if this important national asset is to be managed effectively and the useful life of these structures economically extended. The Story Bridge provides a major traffic corridor over the Brisbane River. It is now over 50 years old and beginning to show signs of distress. The author has undertaken a detailed procedure of testing, inspection and analysis of the approach spans to this structure. The procedure formulated for the Story Bridge can be effectively applied to other reinforced concrete bridge structures. The major mechanisms of concrete corrosion have been identified and methods to test for these in concrete stn,ictures detailed. These testing methods have been applied in the investigation of the approach spans to the Story Bridge. Several applicable structural analysis techniques have been described and implemented in the analysis work undertaken. Test loading of the structure was carried out using two 38 tonne test vehicles and employing a computer based data logging system for data collection. The results of the test loading were used to calibrate the various analytical models used in the investigation. The results of the investigation of the approach spans to the Story Bridge have shown that the major problems are corrosion of reinforcement with associated concrete spalling at expansion and construction joints and significant carbonation of the concrete in the structure. The causes of these problems and remedial measures to economically extend the useful life of the structure have been formulated. The work undertaken highlighted the need for improved design techniques with respect to limiting the number of joints in bridges, and also the need for further research into the long term behaviour of coating systems for the protection of concrete against carbonation. Also highlighted was the need for a national mobile testing facility for bridges to enhance the ability of public authorities to undertake effective investigations of the numerous ageing bridges under their control.

Abstract:
AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Elaine Conrad, for the Doctor of Philosophy degree in Communication Studies, presented on September 21, 2018, at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. TITLE: “I WANT TO TELL YOU MY STORY”: THE POTENTIAL OF NARRATIVE TO BRIDGE CULTURAL DIVIDE MAJOR PROFESSOR: Dr. Nilanjana Bardhan In this dissertation, I examine a strange kind of divide or disconnect that occurs between international students and U.S.-American students. While international students studying in the United States are often strongly interested in forming connections within their newly adopted country and are anxious to get to know and make new friends with U.S.-American students as well as with other community members, it is not always reciprocated by their U.S.-American counterparts. According to data collected in a survey at Midwestern University, frequently U.S.-Americans lack the same motivation for forming connections, find conversing with international students “awkward” at best, threatening or frightening at worst, and view international students as “very foreign,” “strange,” and “too different from me.” Some are fearful of even beginning a conversation, afraid that they will say or do the wrong or politically incorrect thing. Or they may purposely distance themselves from anyone they perceive as different from themselves, preferring that those they view as different stay “someplace else” as far away as possible. My principal concern and overall question in this dissertation is how to begin to bridge these gaps between U.S.-American students and international students so the divide does not become even greater when they leave the protected environment of a college campus and venture out in the world. Perhaps a good starting point to begin to build bridges toward such understanding is through narrative and the stories that international students tell. Stories connect people. They ii draw us in and engage us. It seems only natural to turn in the direction of narratives about the challenges international students experience while negotiating their newly adopted culture in the United States as that potential connecting point, and to begin with audiences of primarily U.S.-American students and community members. In this qualitative study, I was a participant observer in the U.S.-American audiences for the presentations delivered by international students who volunteered to tell their personal stories about the challenges that they have faced. The topic and the exact nature of the challenges they experienced was left open regarding what information and what stories they chose to share with their audiences. I followed up each presentation by conducting qualitative interviews with the 6 female international students involved. In addition, I conducted interviews with 10 audience members who participated and volunteered to be interviewed. My interest was in learning what the U.S.-American students and community members heard when listening to the narratives, stories about how these international students have constructed and negotiated their identities in relation to their “Other” (in this case those of us who are U.S. American). Did U.S.-Americans pick up the same messages that the story-tellers believed that they were delivering? What questions were the audience members motivated to ask? What did they learn from listening to the storytellers’ stories? Did they gain any new insights? Were there commonalities between the different audience members who volunteered to be interviewed? And did they hear common messages? Regarding the students telling their stories, I was interested in discovering what they chose to discuss as well as how much they chose to disclose, and if they gained any insights from the process of telling their stories or from questions that the audience members asked or did not ask. What were their observations about the audience and the audience reactions? How did they iii feel when they were telling their stories? Did the process of telling their stories impact their own identities? There were similar themes that both the storytellers and their audience members discussed during their interviews; however, the subthemes differed. The primary themes that the storytellers believed that they focused on were: cultural issues and differences, religious perceptions, and to a lesser degree, language and communication. While these primary themes were consistent across the storyteller narratives, how strongly they were emphasized and what subthemes were discussed differed from storyteller to storyteller. Among the audience members, the themes heard and discussed were similar to those of the storytellers; however, when the U.S.-Americans discussed cultural differences, they emphasized similarities as opposed to differences, and focused more on communication and language challenges. Religious perceptions were viewed through a western, mostly Christian lens. Subthemes mentioned by U.S.-Americans were bullying, gender, and stereotypes. When I began this dissertation, many of us in the United States were celebrating our first Black president and I, along with many others, hoped that U.S.-Americans would begin to feel more comfortable with diversity in that new and historic reality. However, the political environment has changed once again. Unfortunately, many U.S.-Americans appear to feel even more threatened by diversity, viewing those who are “different” from themselves with ever increasing amounts of anxiety, fear, xenophobia and anger, which are fueled by almost daily news reports. In the current environment, narrative has become even more important as a way to connect and begin to better understand each other, with the potential of bridging cultural divide.

Abstract:
John Augustus Roebling, a classically educated civil engineer and young Hegelian, immigrated to America in 1831 in search of freedom from a repressive political system that afforded him no opportunity for advancement. Arriving in the midst of the American market revolution, his dream of establishing an agrarian farming colony changed in response to societal transformations resulting from mechanization and the rise of industry. Within forty years, Roebling achieved fame as a canal engineer and bridge designer while establishing the American wire rope industry. Without Roebling's innovation in wire-rope, modern suspension bridges, high-rise elevators, construction cranes, and cable cars would not have been possible. Yet historians have virtually ignored Roebling and other civil engineers, entrepreneurs, and inventors who built America's infrastructure. Known primarily, if at all, as the designer of the Brooklyn Bridge, Roebling is an enlightening study of Old World education and training used in the New World.

Arthur, Yaw Amankwa. "Evaluation of a mental health literacy programme on community leaders’ knowledge about and attitude towards people with mental disorders in Ghana: cluster randomised controlled trial." Thesis, 2018. https://vuir.vu.edu.au/38633/.

Full text
Abstract:
In Ghana, poor knowledge about mental disorders, compounded by negative attitudes developed from deep-rooted stigma, may be responsible for inappropriate behaviour towards people with mental disorders. The effects of negative societal reactions toward individuals with mental disorders and their families may be minimised considerably if people are exposed to credible and adequate information about mental disorders. The broad aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a mental health literacy programme on Ghanaian assembly members’ knowledge about and attitudes toward people with mental disorders. In addition, the study sought to evaluate the perspectives of the assembly members who participated in the programme about its usefulness and in what ways, if any, they used this acquired information in their routine dealings with people with mental disorders and their families. This was a mixed method, sequential explanatory design, comprising a cluster randomised controlled trial and a process evaluation. A mental health literacy programme, based on a problem-solving Story-bridge approach, underpinned by andragogy, was developed for the study. Ten district assemblies were randomised into intervention and control clusters. Overall, an equal sample of 70 assembly members in the intervention group received the programme while the control group received a plain language basic brochure about mental health issues. Data were collected from both groups at baseline and 12-week follow-up. In addition, a mixed method process evaluation was undertaken with the intervention group. Principal findings of the study indicated that the programme was somewhat effective in improving participants’ knowledge about and attitudes toward people with mental disorders. Overall, both clusters demonstrated an increase in their mean scores at follow-up; however, the intervention cluster demonstrated a greater improvement than the control cluster. Apart from the community mental health ideology outcome measure, which had a medium and statistically significant difference between the two groups in changes over the two time-points, all other outcome measures had small differences which were not statistically significant. The process evaluation highlighted the usefulness of the programme. Participants expressed value in the programme; improved knowledge, increased confidence and willingness to engage, and increased empathetic and non-judgemental attitudes toward people with mental disorders and their families. In addition, participants commended the delivery of the programme, and recommended ways to boost realisation of the programme objectives and education activities that could be introduced to improve community mental health literacy. Overall, the findings indicate that it is possible to improve people’s knowledge about and attitudes toward people with mental disorders and their families. The outcomes suggest that mental health education should be intensified to improve mental health literacy and reduce deep-rooted stigma. These improvements, in turn, may contribute to positive attitudes towards people with mental disorders and their families, enhance the quality of mental health service delivery, and decrease the treatment gap and burden of mental disorders in Ghana.

Abstract:
This paper presents the replacement of cable stays of the 33 years old Tjörn Bridge located in Sweden. The bridge has a main span 366 m and a total length of 664 m. The bridge has a locked coil cable system of 64 cables, where some cables have corroded with a number of wire failures. The reason is exposure to water and ice combined with insufficient drainage. The paper describes the full story from detecting the corrosion problem to restoring the safety of the bridge by replacing the cables in a safe way. The paper presents and discusses the history of inspection and identification of the corrosion problem and the challenges and solutions of the replacement of cables. As several cables had been ex-posed to a corrosion risk, the replacements carried out, required an in depth safety analyses to consider the strength of all cables.

Abstract:
The reconstruction of the author’s original strategy in the collection Liao Zhai zhi yi (聊齋誌異) implies the ascertaining of the extent to which the text reflects the ethnographic and folklore facts contemporary for Pu Songling. The article offers an attempt of the approach based on the examination of a miniature tale called Making Animals (Zao chu, 造畜). Researchers see its origins either in the Tang story Third Lady of Banqiao Bridge (9th century) or in current demonological beliefs. An analysis of the general structure of the miniature and its lexical features has been conducted. On its basis, as well as on the basis of the comparison of the text with earlier works about the transformation of human beings into animals, we conclude that the sources of the tale were ethnographic information obtained by the author in everyday life, and the story Third Lady… combined with several widespread folklore motifs.

Abstract:
<p>Māori, the tangata whenua (people of the land) in Aoteroa (New Zealand), have very rich, deep-seated cultural connections with wahi (place) and nature. Clients, designers and constructors alike, have begun to understand that ‘story telling’ and ‘place making’ are mutually inclusive strengths. This has seen a steadily growing trend in the New Zealand bridge landscape, where kōrero (cultural narrative) is incorporated in design and delivery of projects large and small.</p><p>The Tirohanga Whānui (panoramic views) Footbridge in Auckland is a project where kōrero is integrated into the design. The bridge is an example of architectural design through kōrero, parametric design and structural features. The 104m long three span truss hybrid has organic voids with apertures that vary in response to the stresses in the structure. With the people-focused cultural lens in mind, the bridge detailing will be discussed.</p><p>This paper will also highlight the unique features of a few bridge projects from Aotearoa (New Zealand), showing the smart and sometimes subtle connections these bridges have with nature and iwi (local community or tribe).</p>

Abstract:
<p>The story of the Msikaba and Mtentu River Bridges is a story about the Transkei Region in South Africa. The area’s unfenced rural landscape is considered unique and is characterised by steep gorges and rivers that run down to the Wild Coast. The civil engineers of the past avoided the area and the main highway connecting the ports of Durban and East London runs 200 km inland. This is now changing with the South African National Roads Agency’s SOC Ltd (SANRAL’s) procurement of the new N2 Wild Coast Road that will realign the highway within 30 km of the coast. The project includes two new crossings, one a 580 m span cable-stayed bridge, the other a 1.1 km long viaduct with a 260 m central balanced cantilever span, across the deepest gorges on the route. Their design and procurement is however driven not only by their physical environment but the need to create jobs, business opportunities for small local enterprises and community development projects that will leave a legacy and a long term economic benefit.</p>
