Abstract:
A quasi-experimental repeated measures design using a matched set of 20 test and comparison supermarkets in the Washington, D. C. and Baltimore, Md., metropolitan areas was used to evaluate a nutrition information program called “Special Diet Alert” (SDA) introduced by Giant Food, Inc. into Washington, D. C. stores in March 1981. The objective of the SDA program was to help supermarket shoppers find products for special diet needs by providing brand-specific (i.e., individual product level) shelf markers that identified products considered low or reduced in sodium, calories, cholesterol, and fat, supplemented by take-away information booklets available from a rack in the store which listed SDA brand names and specific nutrient values. Market shares of these products were tracked over the two-year evaluation period in Washington, D. C. and Baltimore stores. The pattern of differential sales trends across 16 individual food categories was complicated, but sales of shelf-marked products increased on the average 4 to 8 percent more over the two-year evaluation period in Washington, D. C. than in Baltimore, Md. stores. The average magnitude of effect attributable to SDA was modest in comparison with other factors influencing consumer purchases, highlighting the need for powerful evaluation designs to assess the effectiveness of information programs that operate in the context of many other more powerful influences. Further research is needed to determine which aspects of the SDA program were critical to its success, but one obvious difference between SDA and other in-store nutrition information programs that have been reported in the literature was the use of individual brand-specific shelf markers to deliver nutrition information to shoppers rather than prominently displayed sectional posters and detailed educational pamphlets.

Abstract:
There is a long-standing belief in U.S. music education that students should learn music from other cultures. Research that incorporates elements of neuroscience, music, and culture can provide evidence teachers need to improve the design and implementation of multicultural music education curricula. The purpose of this short-form literature review is to discuss recent quantitative research in neuroscience, music, and culture to further the integration and application of neuroscientific evidence into the daily practices of music educators. This literature review includes three avenues of inquiry: (a) studies of infants’ musical perception, (b) studies from Finland highlighting the neuroplasticity of the brain, and (c) a series of experiments from the University of Washington investigating culture and the recall of music. Recommendations focus on four concepts: (a) uncovering innate musical potential, (b) developing a framework for understanding music, (c) teaching focused listening strategies, and (d) adjusting expectations in learning outcomes.

Abstract:
Conversion of a general-purpose freeway into a high-occupancy-vehicle (HOV) lane is an alternative to infrastructure addition for HOV system implementation. Research indicates that lane conversion is feasible technically if sufficient HOV usage and minimal main lane congestion occur from the first day of operation. The elements required for inclusion in an implementation plan for lane conversion to HOV after technical feasibility has been determined are presented. HOV-lane marketing is meant to heighten public awareness of the purpose and operation of HOV facilities while encouraging their use. The general public, local decision makers, and the local media are important elements to include in a marketing campaign for successful HOV implementation. These elements also apply to the successful implementation of lane conversion to HOV. Four HOV lane-conversion projects are investigated: (a) Santa Monica Freeway, Los Angeles, California; (b) Dulles Toll Road, Northern Virginia; (c) Interstate 90, Seattle, Washington; and (d) Interstate 80, northern New Jersey. The Santa Monica and Dulles projects are considered failures, whereas the Interstate 80 and 90 projects are considered successful. From these case studies and the literature review, implementation elements were identified: (a) technical feasibility, (b) early public outreach, (c) strong institutional arrangements, (d) inclusion of law enforcement agencies, (e) open relationships with the media, and (f) project opening timing.

Abstract:
Literature on the foreign policy behavior of economically dependent states holds that they will comply with the foreign policy preferences of the United States, particularly on cold war issues. Regional foreign policies of Mexico and Costa Rica defy this view. Despite significant economic dependence on U.S. aid and trade, both Miguel de la Madrid and Oscar Arias developed peace plans for Central America that directly countered the objectives of the Reagan policy for the area. Pressures resulting from (a) regional security threats, (b) the flow of refugees into Costa Rica and Mexico, (c) the foreign policy traditions of each country, and (d) the need to counteract the effects of dependence guided these presidents to accept the risks of a defiant foreign policy in order to satisfy local demands. Even though heavily dependent and under pressure from the U.S. government to comply with its regional foreign policy, Mexico and Costa Rica implemented policies that served their own national interests and defied Washington.

Abstract:
THE IDEA FOR THIS CLUSTER of work had its origins in a session of the 1996 Modern Language Association Convention in Washington, D. C., where the editors of Victorian Literature and Culture organized a panel devoted to the topic at hand: “Victorian Studies and Cultural Studies.” The panel presentations and the post-panel discussion were extremely stimulating, and it was clear that the rich topic wanted further consideration. The following selection of essays, gathered together under this journal’s special feature, the “Editors’ Topic,” is the result. Here, then, are four articles representing a range of practice — though not, by any means, the entire range of practice — in the intersecting fields of Victorian studies and cultural studies. The articles are followed by fourteen forum essays presenting an array of pressing issues, arguments, and sharp opinions centering in the relations — past, present, and potential — between Victorian studies and cultural studies. Three of the following eighteen pieces were presented (and those in shorter, nascent form) at the MLA: Mary Ellis Gibson’s article on Henry Martyn, Jane Eyre, and Missionary Biography, Kristen Leaver’s consideration of Victorian melodrama, and my brief ruminations on the concepts of “discourse” and “genre.” All the rest were commissioned for this issue of Victorian Literature and Culture.

Full text
Abstract:
A systematic list of echinoderms from Malpelo Fauna and Flora Sanctuary (MFFS) was prepared, based on local sampling, literature review and identification of specimens from Museo de Historia Natural Marina de Colombia (MHNMC) and from National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington D. C. (USNM). Standard methodology for monitoring the Eastern Tropical Pacific Seascape was used in December 2006 and March 2007 to sample shallow water echinoderms (1-20 m deep). Malpelo is the richest locality of the Colombian Pacific with 84 species reported (56 % of them deep water organisms), belonging to 22 orders, 42 families and 68 genera, distributed between the surface and a depth of 5000 m. Thirty-six new records for MFFS and Colombian Pacific are reported. In Colombia the shallow water species are widely distributed in the Pacific, while deep forms only occur at Malpelo. The majority of species are mostly related to the Panamanian and Galapagos region showing a possible connectivity. This list increases knowledge on the echinoderm biodiversity from the Malpelo Island in 68 %.

Full text
Abstract:
In this article, we advance a conceptual framework for the study of Teach For America (TFA) as a political and social movement with implicit and explicit ideological and political underpinnings. We argue that the second branch of TFA’s mission statement, which maintains that TFA’s greatest point of influence in public education is not in classrooms, but in its facilitation of entry into leadership positions aimed at reshaping public schooling, can be better understood in terms of the organization’s: a) infusion of “policy entrepreneurs” into educational policymaking processes; b) cultivation of powerful networks of elite interests; c) promotion of “corporate” models of managerial leadership; and, d) racial and social class identities of its corps members that facilitate entry into leadership and policy networks. Our framework is informed by the extant research literature on TFA, interview data from more than 150 alumni and corps members, and our observations of TFA’s 20th Anniversary Summit in Washington, D.C., as an illustrative case of TFA’s messaging and general orientation toward educational reform. We conclude that this framework can help illuminate under-examined political and ideological motivations behind the organization’s activities.

Abstract:
This paper discusses procedures for creating calibrated building energy simulation programs. It begins with reviews of the calibration techniques that have been reported in the previous literature and presents new hourly calibration methods including a temperature bin analysis to improve hourly x−y scatter plots, a 24-hour weather-daytype bin analysis to allow for the evaluation of hourly temperature and schedule dependent comparisons, and a 52-week bin analysis to facilitate the evaluation of long-term trends. In addition, architectural rendering is reviewed as a means of verifying the dimensions of the building envelope and external shading placement as seen by the simulation program. Several statistical methods are also presented that provide goodness-of-fit indicators, including percent difference calculations, mean bias error (MBE), and the coefficient of variation of the root mean squared error (CV(RMSE)). The procedures are applied to a case study building located in Washington, D. C. where nine months of hourly whole-building electricity data and sitespecific weather data were measured and used with the DOE-2.1D building energy simulation program to test the new techniques. Simulations that used the new calibration procedures were able to produce an hourly MBE of –0.7% and a CV(RMSE) of 23.1% which compare favorably with the most accurate hourly neural network models (Kreider and Haberl, 1994a, b).

Full text
Abstract:
In 1902, Larz Anderson III, a Washington diplomat, and his wife, Isabel Weld Perkins Anderson, a Boston author, commissioned the Boston architects Arthur Little and Herbert W. C. Browne to design their winter residence in the District of Columbia. Completed in 1905, this Beaux-Arts mansion now serves as an historic house museum and as the national headquarters for the Society of the Cincinnati, a patriotic organization established by Revolutionary War officers in 1783. Larz Anderson was a member and a descendant of one of the founders of the Society. The fact that Anderson House was designated a national historic landmark in 1996 indicates that it is worthy of national recognition, yet the architectural and historical significance of this socially and politically important building has not been fully investigated. This dissertation examines the edifice by focusing on its patrons, families, architects, design, art collection, and mural paintings.

Abstract:
Depuis sa création en 1846, la Smithsonian Institution reflète l'évolution des rapports entre sociétés industrielles et traditionnelles, de la domination au respect. Tour à tour vitrines, encyclopédies, centres de recherche scientifique ou lieux de validation de l'idéologie nationale, les musées s'étaient éloignés de l'essence des objets pour n'en retenir que l'apparence, le plus souvent magnifiée par les techniques de conservation. Les années soixante, en remettant en question la pensée cartésienne et le concept d'apprentissage élitiste, contraignirent les conservateurs à intégrer dans leurs pratiques la préservation, l'éducation et l'éthique. Dès lors, l'objet muséal ne fut plus relique mais outil au service de la connaissance des sociétés plurielles, lien entre la raison, les croyances et les sentiments individuels et collectifs. Ainsi conçu, le musée du vingt-et-unième siècle sera tout à la fois mémoire du groupe et de l'individu, mémoire dynamique qui prend en compte le passé, le présent et l'avenir. Les cent quarante millions d'objets qui composent les collections des seize musées de la Smithsonian peuvent se combiner à l'infini pour porter, dans chaque exposition, un regard différent sur le monde. Muséographie et muséologie se complètent pour rapprocher les différences et faire en sorte que le multiculturalisme ne soit pas synonyme de juxtaposition mais d'enrichissement mutuel
Since its creation in 1846 the Smithsonian has followed the evolution of the relations between industrialized and traditional societies, relations that have evolved from domination to respect. By turns showcases, encyclopedias, scientific research centers and places to validate the national ideology, museums had lost the contact with the essence of the object, mostly concerned with its physical appearance, that was often magnified by the techniques of conservation. In the sixties. Cartesian thinking and the elitist education were questioned and, in their practices, curators had to take into account the preservation, as well as the educational role and the ethical dimension of the exhibits. Since then the museal object has no longer been a mere treasure but has enabled visitors to have access to the knowledge of communities in their diversity, it has become a link between rational thinking, beliefs and personal or collective feelings. The 21st century museum should be the memory of the group as well as that of the individual, a dynamic memory stretching between the past, the present and the future. The 140 million objects of the Smithsonian collections can be combined ad infinitum to present the world in different ways. Museography and museology join their competencies so that the multicultural exhibitions may not be a mere juxtaposition of differences but offer an opportunity to share experiences and knowledge

Abstract:
Studiens syfte var att utvärdera hur elever på SFI utvecklar de syntaktiska kunskaperna i det svenska språket. Utifrån ett skriftligt nationellt prov jämfördes 15 elever på C-nivå med 15 elever på D-nivå. Texternas syntax analyserades med fokus på ordföljd vid topikaliserade huvudsatser samt bisatser. Jag använde mig av processbarhetsteorin som analysverktyg. Processbarhetsteorin är utarbetad av Pienemann och teorin har två grammatiska delar, en morfologisk del och en syntaktisk del. Teorins syfte är att, med hjälp av dess implikationella inlärningsgångar, beskriva var en inlärare befinner sig och vad som kommer härnäst i utvecklingen (Flymann, Mattsson & Håkansson 2010 s. 15). Resultatet visade att D-eleverna använde bisatser i mycket högre utsträckning än C-eleverna. På grund av det ringa antalet satsadverbial gick det dock inte att fastställa att inlärarna gjorde skillnad på huvudsats- och bisatsordföljd. Resultatet av studien visade vidare att C-eleverna, med knapp marginal, topikaliserade sina huvudsatser i högre utsträckning. Osäkerheten kring faktorer som t.ex. skrivämnets påverkan gjorde att det inte gick att dra någon slutats i huruvida C-eleverna faktiskt hade mer kunskap gällande omvänd ordföljd. Studiens resultat visade att för att kunna göra en jämförelse med god validitet av elevernas syntax, hade det krävts ett kompletterande material till skrivningarna för att locka fram mer ovanliga grammatiska strukturer. Studiens resultat visade också att processbarhetsteorins inlärningsgångar stämmer väl med elevernas inlärningsgångar.

Abstract:
Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, la capitale étatsunienne connaît une croissance sans précédent et acquiert une position incontestée de quartier général des Alliés. La Washington de 1945 n'a plus rien à voir avec le paysage urbain peuplé mais somnolent de 1939. Suite à la guerre, que va-t-il advenir du District de Columbia ? Nombre d'acteurs de différents types et niveaux veulent avoir leur mot à dire dans le futur de la capitale. La plupart d'entre eux espèrent utiliser la ville pour promouvoir des intérêts particuliers.Au cours des années d'après-guerre, le District est le théâtre de nombreuses joutes symboliques, qui voient s'affronter l'ensemble des acteurs politiques, économiques et sociaux du pays. Les enjeux sont locaux, nationaux ou internationaux, ils concernent l'administration locale, le droit de vote, la ségrégation, les conditions de logement, etc., ils rejaillissent sur Washington à la fois en tant que ville-symbole et que ville habitée. Ces affrontements et leurs résultats incarnent la capitale et dessinent son futur tout à la fois. Nous étudions ici pourquoi et comment ces évolutions se produisent. Le combat pour l'égalité entre Noirs et Blancs dans le District, par exemple, ouvre la voie à des progrès sur le plan national. La lutte contre les taudis se déroule dans le cadre des programmes de redéveloppement urbain souvent associés au déclin des centres-villes. La lutte pour l'autodétermination et les efforts fournis pour développer les rôles national et international de Washington sont d'autres exemples des dynamiques à l'œuvre dans la capitale entre 1945 et 1955. Après une première partie consacrée à la situation dans le District à la fin de la guerre, afin d'exposer les enjeux qui se posent en 1945, nous examinons les spécificités et implications de son rôle de capitale, tant sur le plan national que sur le plan international. La troisième partie porte sur les évolutions urbaines et sociales dans la ville d'après-guerre.

AbstractBrain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) classification has been the subject of extensive discussion. The aim of our work was to review the main classification schemes proposed in the literature, which can be summarized in four main groups: (a) traditional schemes oriented to evaluate the operability of AVMs have been joined by (b) specific classifications that evaluate the outcome and the predictability of obliteration of other treatment modalities and (c) others that evaluate the outcome of intracerebral hemorrhages in ruptured AVMs. Eventually, (d) topographical classifications that categorize the subtypes of AVMs located in specific anatomical regions have been drawn. For each classification, we discuss the implications on surgical management.

Abstract:
Abstract Wells turbine is a self-rectifying axial flow reaction turbine used to harvest energy from the ocean waves. It suffers from a premature stall at higher flow rates. The present study discusses a comparative performance analysis with a turbine-blade leading-edge (LE) microcylinder (LEM) and D-cylinder (LED). The space between the LE and the cylinder was fixed as 1.5% of chord length (c). The sizes of the cylinder were varied from 0.5% to 0.75% of the chord. The unstructured tetrahedral mesh elements were used to discretize the computational flow domain that consists of a single blade passage with periodic boundary conditions. The Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the k-ω shear stress transport (SST) turbulence equations were solved in a commercial CFD code Ansys CFX 18.1. The flow was considered incompressible. The present numerical study was compared with available open literature. The modified rotor blades showed a significant performance enhancement compared to the reference turbine. The peak efficiency was improved by 11.29% at a particular flow coefficient in 0.5%c radius LED-turbine. The presence of the cylinders delayed the flow separation and enhanced the operating range up to 11.11%.

Abstract:
The objective of the paper is investigating food networks (FNs), focusing on the emerging of recurring themes in literature and investigating how the networks relationships may influence the resources uses in farming activities. The research was carried out through access to Web of Science and Scopus databases in order to investigate the literature on FNs. The period considered is 2000-2016, using as selected key words food networks, food and practices, alternative food networks. Then we selected and classified the resulting articles and identified a set of themes addressed in literature. The main outcome of this analysis is the identification of the following themes: a) common/shared FNs characteristics; b) trust creation and embeddedness facilitated by face to face relations; c) role of FNs in transformation of food systems towards social, environmental and health objectives; d) food citizenship/sovereignty-civil engagement; e) values inspiring FNs objectives, namely sustainability, fairness/social justice, health protection, ethical consumption/political action; f) governance of the consumers-producers relations. We argue that identified themes are dimensions related to FNs objectives. More precisely we then conceptualize the identified characteristics as drivers of the ranking of resource uses in farming systems. Elaborating on this idea we derive principles for supporting the design of governance of these groups. The study concludes underlying the complexity of food networks and their capability to influence the resources uses by setting up flexible but resilient governance structures.

Abstract:
The flow-acoustic nature of sharp-edged T-junctions is investigated experimentally. Tests are performed for a Reynolds number range of 54,000 < ReD < 470,000. Four test cases are studied corresponding to: (a) T-junction with flow from the two branches; (b) T-junction with flow from one branch; (c) T-junction with flow into the two branches and (d) T-junction with flow into one branch. It is found that the separation bubble formed when the flow goes around the T-junction corner provides a source of turbulence excitation. For cases (c) and (d) the dimensionless pressure amplitudes of the acoustic modes reach a maximum at a Strouhal number which is in agreement with the broadband peak measured in the separation bubble. Cases (a) and (b) exhibit a different type of flow-acoustic coupling. In both cases, the maximum acoustic pressure is stronger than in Cases (c) and (d) and occurs at a Strouhal number which is different from that observed in the separation bubble. The results are compared to experimental and numerical studies from the literature.

Abstract:
This paper presents a value quantification model for multi-stage product development using lean principles. The proposed value model considers four main stages of product development (PD) including conceptual development, systems design, detailed design and prototyping. The model determines an optimal solution for each of the design variables to maximize the value at each of the PD stages. The value at each of the PD stages is formulated as a function of the six factors: (a) importance of customer requirements (b) cost of customer’s ownership, (c) parts/service availability, (d) weighted average cost of capital, (e) information evolution and (f) risk reduction. Factors (a)-(d) have been adequately addressed in the literature. This study focuses on information evolution and risk reduction. These two factors are defined by a set of value attributes including performance, risk, schedule, cost, form, fit, function and timeliness. An example of Detonator Disposal (DD) robot family is used to explain the working of the proposed model.

Abstract:
A critical review of literature on the mooring forces on the berthed ship together with the passing vessel effects indicates limited data, thus requiring additional studies. Four methods have been found in the literature namely (a) Seelig’s, (b) Flory’s, (c) Kreibel’s, and (d) Modified Seelig’s methods. A comprehensive review and comparison of existing methods has been carried out to verify the applicability of each method to certain conditions and also to establish the parameters for study. It has been found that displacement of the vessels, separation distance between the vessels and velocity of the passing vessel greatly influence the passing vessel forces on moored ship. The software OPTIMOOR has been used to verify Flory’s and Seelig’s methods with the experimental data of Remery and also to study the combined effect of environmental loads and passing vessel effects on mooring lines. The results indicate that the interaction of waves and passing vessel effects are too onerous. Conclusions have been arrived based on the results that for separation distance of 100 m or less between vessels has a greater influence on mooring line forces, leading to breakage of lines.

"Experimental Validation of Numerical Predictions for the Transient Performance of a Simple Latent Heat Storage Unit (LHSU) Utilizing Phase Change Material (PCM) and 3-D Printing." In ASME 2017 Heat Transfer Summer Conference. American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/ht2017-5045.

Abstract:
Experimental validation was performed in this study to verify the efficacy of numerical models for predicting the location of solid-liquid interface in an axi-symmetric configuration during both melting and solidification in a Latent Heat Storage Unit (LHSU). Development of analytical solutions for predicting the location of the solid-liquid interface is often intractable in LHSU due to non-linear temperature distribution in the Phase Change Material (PCM). This is further complicated by the moving boundary problem with free convection within the liquid phase of the PCM. Analytical solutions available in the contemporary literature are based on simplified transient heat conduction models and often fail to reliably predict the charging and discharging time constants for LHSU with complex configurations. This study is designed with the goal of developing more sophisticated numerical models for the estimation of transient thermal performance of an LHSU with a simple configuration involving a shell and tube heat exchanger (HX). The LHSU utilized in this study is realized by integrating various types of Phase Change Materials (PCM) contained in the shell side of a HX. The LHSU is charged or discharged by pumping hot or cold fluids in the tube side of the HX (i.e., by pumping water at a fixed inlet temperature from a commercial chiller apparatus). This study enabled the characterization of the transient response of a LHSU subjected to conduction and forced convection heat transfer. The PCM used in this material was paraffin wax (PURETEMP 29). The HX in the LHSU consisted of a single pass straight tube (½ inch copper pipe) mounted within a single shell configuration. The shell was fabricated from plastic material using additive manufacturing (i.e., “3D Printing”). The temperature variation during melting and solidification of the PCM were measured at different radial and axial locations within the cylindrical shell that was mounted vertically. Temperature measurements were performed at different mass flowrate ranging from 0.004 Kg/sec to 0.007 Kg/sec for the same fluid temperature. The water bath temperatures were maintained at a constant temperature of 40°C for melting and 15°C for solidification. The experiment results show that the transient response of the LHSU for charging and discharging (i.e., time required for melting and solidification of the PCM) vary significantly. Comparison of the experimental data with analytical results (involving quasi-stationary models for phase change) demonstrate that natural convection is the dominant mode during the melting process, while conduction is the dominant mode during the solidification process.

Abstract:
In the absence of a simple technique to predict convection heat transfer on building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) surfaces, a mobile probe with two thermocouples was designed. Thermal boundary layers on vertical flat surfaces of a photovoltaic (PV) and a metallic plate were traversed. The plate consisted of twelve heaters where heat flux and surface temperature were controlled and measured. Uniform heat flux condition was developed on the heaters to closely simulate non-uniform temperature distribution on vertical PV modules. The two thermocouples on the probe measured local air temperature and contact temperature with the wall surface. Experimental results were presented in the forms of local Nusselt numbers versus Rayleigh numbers “Nu=a * (Ra)b”, and surface temperature versus dimensionless height [Ts -T∞= c*(z/h)d]. The constant values for “a”, “b”, “c” and “d” were determined from the best curve-fitting to the power-law relation. The convection heat transfer predictions from the empirical correlations were found to be in consistent with those predictions made by a number of correlations published in the open literature. A simple technique is then proposed to employ two experimental data from the probe to refine empirical correlations as the operational conditions change. A flexible technique to update correlations is of prime significance requirement in thermal design and operation of BIPV modules. The work is in progress to further extend the correlation to predict the combined radiation and convection on inclined PVs and channels.
