Abstract:

This thesis documents the early history of the City of Sydney Eisteddfod from its beginning in 1933 until it recessed in 1941 for the duration of the Pacific War. Eisteddfods had long been commonplace in Australia, but this competition began for political rather than cultural reasons in 1932, when organisers of the Harbour Bridge celebrations decided that since the spectacular edifice had made Sydney an icon on the world map, the city needed to cultivate a more sophisticated image. In observing events that led to its establishment, the project looks at the technological revolution of the 1920s

Abstract:

Although Fort Denison is purported to be close to the heart of Sydneysiders, extensive studies on the island are confined to the realm of grey literature. This thesis seeks to resolve this lacuna by investigating whether Fort Denison stood as a symbol of pride or folly in the local context from 1840-2000. By employing a cultural history approach, this study foregrounds the diverse meanings and perceptions that have accumulated in popular material since its physical reconfiguration as a fortification. In doing so, this examination reveals that Fort Denison’s place and meaning in Sydney was freq

Abstract:

Agriculture, industry and medicine are being altered by new biological technologies. Today's students are the citizens who will make decisions about associated ethical issues. They need to have the knowledge that will enable them to make informed choices. Hence biotechnology has an important place in science education. The aims of the research were to: 1/describe the state of biotechnology teaching in NSW; 2/determine whether teachers in NSW do not teach biotechnology because they do not have the necessary knowledge and experience; 3/identify other reasons why NSW teachers choose not to teach

Abstract:

Estuarine habitats along the temperate south-eastern shores of Australia are generally made up of salt marsh, mangrove forests and seagrass beds. In urban areas these habitats have been progressively fragmented as a result of population increase and industrial expansion. Salt marshes in particular have been vulnerable to urban expansion and reclamation because of their close proximity to densely populated areas, while mangrove forests have been less often reclaimed because of frequent tidal inundation.

Both P. corniculatus and A. carunculata were found to be mostly canopy foragers with occasional forays into the shrub layer when food resources became available there. Flower-probing and foliage gleaning comprised the bulk of foraging behaviour. Most of the food resources

Abstract:

Increased development pressure in inner city areas of many Australian and North American cities has resulted in the loss of locally valued cultural landscapes. Accompanying this process is palpable concern by local residents that their values have not been taken into account. While architectural and historical values are well recognised by heritage and planning practitioners, less tangible social values are often ignored. This thesis argues that a gap has formed between the process through which people interact with place and the process of landuse planning. The aim of the research is to criti

In spite of Australia’s border closure during the pandemic, the number of displaced people seeking refuge has continued to rise. For those lucky ones that are granted a visa to Australia, social inclusion and connectedness in the host country are crucial and closely linked to the indicators often used when measuring resettlement success. Yet refugee women particularly struggle with creating social connections. This thesis aims to investigate the role of social media in refugee women’s process of gaining social capital.

Abstract:

Over half of the world’s human population are living within an urban environment. As a result, urbanisation of the natural landscape has increased, involving extensive land use change, and reducing the ecological resilience of species living within these complex environments. Habitat fragmentation and isolation caused by urbanisation can reduce the landscape connectivity of the ecological network. Landscape connectivity between habitat patches is critical to sustain genetic diversity, migration and sufficient territories for many species within complex landscapes.

By the late 1920s this number was almost halved and from 1969 to 1989 a further 46 hotels in Central Sydney have ceased trading.

Among the plethora of human uses of coastal areas, recreation and tourism are two of the most rapidly-growing activities in post—industrial societies.

Abstract:

This thesis is the first substantive analysis of unregistered proprietary horse racing (or pony racing, as it was popularly known) in Sydney, an extremely popular form of the sport conducted weekly or more frequently between 1888 and 1942. However, a number of researchers working on its periphery have contributed commentary and judgements to a discourse on it that has existed since the establishment of the Sydney Turf Club (STC) in 1943. Their writings have created an orthodox view of the sport that suggests inter alia it was a cultural expression of a ‘needy and greedy’ element of the working

Abstract:

This study examined the role of social networks in the occupational choice, access and retention of Australian youth. It explored the nature of the interaction between factors which provided a set of conditions in which access to jobs and job retention was either facilitated or inhibited. The main focus of the study was on experiences of family, schooling and employment as sources of networks, and the way in which these three sources interact to produce networks with different characteristics. The focus on networks generated certain propositions which formed the basis of the study. The ﬁrst

Abstract:

Using Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulations, the flow in the new University of Sydney closed circuit wind tunnel has been analyzed prior to the construction of the tunnel. The objective was to obtain a uniform flow in the test section of the wind tunnel while keeping the pressure losses over the tunnel as low as possible. This was achieved by using several flow-improving components such as guide vanes, screens, a honeycomb and a settling chamber. The guide vanes were used in the corners and in the diverging part leading into the settling chamber, giving a significant improvement of the flow
