Large area ratio nozzles that are employed for space propulsion applications are not meant to be tested at the ground-level conditions because of the flow conditions that occurs in their divergent section due to their low exhaust pressures. Therefore, it is desired to perform the experimental evaluation at high-altitude to evaluate the performance of the said nozzles. Generally, a high-altitude test facility, consisting of a supersonic exhaust diffuser, is generally employed. In thispaper, a second-throat exhaust diffuser has been numerically investigated to predict its minimum starting pressure, and to understand the flow physics in the diffuser using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Numerical computation of the flow field in the diffuser system is done for the two cases: 1) when the nozzle and the diffuser system are initially evacuated to a low pressure, and 2) when the nozzle and the diffuser system are initially at ambient pressure (1 bar). Simulations have been carried out for cold flow situation (Ȗ=1.4) over a range of nozzle inlet stagnation pressures. Numerical results compare favorably with the theoretical and experimental results and provide adequate insight to the flow physics and internal shock structures formed in thediffuser in addition to minimum starting pressure, diffuser wall pressure and vacuum thrust.

BACKGROUND

Recurrent cervical internal carotid artery vasospasm syndrome (RCICVS) causes cerebral infarction, ocular symptoms, and occasionally chest pain accompanied by coronary artery vasospasm. The etiology and optimal treatment remain unclear.

OBSERVATIONS

The authors report a patient with drug-resistant RCICVS who underwent carotid artery stenting (CAS). Magnetic resonance angiography revealed recurrent vasospasm in the cervical segment of the internal carotid artery (ICA). Vessel wall imaging during an ischemic attack revealed vascular wall thickening of the ICA, similar to that in reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome. The superior cervical ganglion was identified at the anteromedial side of the stenosis site. Coronary artery stenosis was also detected. After CAS, the symptoms of cerebral ischemia were prevented for 2 years, but bilateral ocular and chest symptoms did occur.

LESSONS

Vessel wall imaging findings suggest that RCICVS is a sympathetic nervous system-related disease. CAS could be an effective treatment for drug-resistant RCICVS to prevent cerebral ischemic events.

Two new complexes, Cu(II) and Co(II) were successfully synthesized under reflux. A mixture of Cu(NO3)2·3H2O and CoSO4·7H2O with m-phenylenediamine (MPD) ligands in methanol with molar ratios of 1:4 and 1:2, respectively resulted in the formation of two new complexes. Complexes characterized using UV-Vis Spectrophotometer, Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), conductivity, Fourier-transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Magnetic Susceptibility Balance (MSB), and powder XRD. Cu(II) complex transition shows 2B1g → 2A1g at 459 nm. Meanwhile, the Co(II) complex exhibits a peak at 503 nm, overlapping between 4T1g(F) → 4A2g(F) and 4T1g(F) → 4T1g(P). Complex formulas are [Cu(MPD)4](NO3)2·4H2O and [Co(MPD)2H2O]SO4·2H2O, in which the H2O molecule and MPD are coordinated into Cu(II) and Co(II) ion via nitrogen atom from primary amine group. Both complexes are electrolyte and paramagnetic with μeff values of 1.76 BM and 4.23 BM, respectively. The complex of Cu(II) is indicated as square planar, Co(II) complex is a trigonal planar with a monoclinic crystal system. There was no antibacterial act for E. coli ATCC 25922 and S.aureus ATCC 25923 for the two complexes.

Del templo al tráiler: La Casa en Orinda de Charles W. Moore, 1962.
Authors: Sanz Jaime , Pancorbo Luis
Published: June 2023

En el año 1962 Charles W. Moore construye en Orinda, a las afueras de la ciudad de Oakland, California, una pequeña casa para sí mismo. La casa, reducida en esquema a dos elementos centrales en forma de edículo y de envolvente de paneles móviles, resume de manera concisa las ideas sobre el espacio doméstico de un Moore que, de entre sus muchas influencias formales y estilísticas, siempre navegó entre la observación de un lenguaje clásico europeo y la búsqueda de un lenguaje originalmente americano. Así, la casa puede ser entendida como un collage en la que tienen cabida objetos extraños, ajenos y preconcebidos –los edículos – a la vez que como una obra radicalmente enraizada en la cultura doméstica norteamericana. Esta interrelación entre la cultura clásica y la tradición norteamericana, invariable a lo largo de su obra, convierte posiblemente a Moore en el arquitecto más genuinamente americano de su generación.
innovación curatorial de Bernard Rudofsky en el MoMA

Published: June 2023

La exposición Architecture Without Architects fue inaugurada en 1964 en el Museo de Arte Moderno de Nueva York. Comparar la estrategia curatorial llevada a cabo por su comisario, Bernard Rudofsky, con las propuestas antes presentadas en el departamento de arquitectura de la institución, señalan a AWA como un hito sin precedentes, no solo por cómo presentó un nuevo modo de entender la arquitectura, sino por el empleo de un material exclusivamente fotográfico que generó una estructura dialéctica mediante un trabajo de postproducción, reutilizando imágenes con orígenes diversos. La propuesta de Rudofsky dio como resultado un diseño expositivo en forma de estructura cartográfica, relacionada con el atlas Mnemosyne, alejándose de modos tradicionales lineales y cronológicos, para expandir el campo de visión en favor de una lectura transversal y simultánea, convirtiendo a AWA en referente obligado del mundo de las exposiciones arquitectónicas de la época, abriendo nuevos modos de comunicación en arquitectura.
Un trozo de aire sagrado
Authors: López Ribera Francisco Javier
Published: June 2023

La bibliografía existente sobre Miguel Fisac es abundantísima, incluso aquella que trata específicamente sobre su producción religiosa. Este artículo trata de aclarar ciertos aspectos y poner en valor una obra y un proyecto no construido situados en la provincia de Huelva -un pequeño, alejado y periférico territorio en la España de la autarquía-, y realizados en un intervalo de tiempo de tan solo siete años (1957-1964). Muchos interrogantes aparecían con anterioridad al inicio de la labor investigadora. Pero de una lectura somera de los textos específicos sobre su obra religiosa, se podía ya intuir que, pese a su ‘olvido’, estábamos ante dos ejemplos importantes en el devenir, el ensayo y la serie de magníficas arquitecturas religiosas producidas por el arquitecto manchego en el periodo de renovación pre y post-conciliar.
¿Es el mundo un “gran interior”?
Authors: Navarro Jover Luis
Published: June 2023

Según apunta Peter Sloterdijk, la desconfianza en el medio que nos rodea, junto con el desarrollo de las tecnologías de control y confort del aire, nos ha llevado a un proceso creciente de “interiorización” del espacio arquitectónico. Nuestro mundo globalizado nos ha acostumbrado a respirar un aire diseñado y sintetizado, envolviéndonos en una reconfortante atmósfera prefijada, perfectamente desarrollada y “perfumada”, con el objetivo de crear nuevos y excitantes efectos en los usuarios-espectadores-compradores.
Este interior es en sí mismo una gran máquina climática; esto es, una “gran escultura de aire” que sus habitantes atraviesan a modo de “instalación respirable”. Un aire manipulable, controlable (casi en condiciones de laboratorio) y almacenado de forma óptima.
A tal respecto, se presentará aquí una serie de casos relevantes por cuanto han sido capaces de manipular las numerosas variables atmosféricas, vectores, energías, gradientes, etc. al servicio de nuevos interiores: sensorialmente sugerentes y geográficamente desplazados.
The origin of dark energy and dark matter: the galactic antigravitation
Authors: Rockenbauer Antal
Published: June 2023

In standard cosmology ordinary matter consists of only 5% of the universe. Alternative cosmology is developed including exclusively observable baryonic materials. In this model gravitation is given by a mediation process represented by spherically symmetric spatial circulations denoted as keplerons, which are emitted by massive objects. The velocity of circulation follows the Kepler’s law reproducing the Newtonian gravitation including also the Schwartzshield correction, but at long distances the accelerating expansion of space converts gravitation into antigravitation. Inside galaxies attractive gravitation predominates due to the elliptic geometry, but in the intergalactic space hyperbolic geometry brings to a repulsive interaction between galaxies. The attractive force of hypothetic dark matter is replaced by external compression caused by repulsive antigravitation between galaxies. The repulsive galactic interaction does not decrease with distance and even increases when the recession velocity is close to the speed of light. This relativistic increase gives the predominant contribution to the dark energy. The external compression can explain why the orbiting velocities of stars are the same in the spiral arms of galaxies, why mass density of nebulae clusters is enhanced and why the gravitational lensing is so intensive. The model derives the overall mass of universe as 1.74x1053 kg, which is in accordance to the estimated number of galaxies.

Authorship capital and reforming the Russian publication system
Authors: Polterovich V. N.
Published: June 2023

The article is devoted to the problem of improving the governance of publication systems, within which their actors interact in producing scientific publications, supplying them to readers, as well as in funding and coordinating corresponding processes. It is emphasized that the ownership of a scientific text includes two components: the right to a monetary reward for the use of the article by the consumer and authorship. The first component can be passed to another person, but the second cannot. Authorship is the basis for building up an individual intangible asset, which we call authorship capital. The desire to increase it determines the dual role of the author in the publication system: he is not only a producer of the knowledge embodied in the article, but also, along with the reader, its ultimate consumer. The dual role of the journal is also noted, which, organizing the review process, turns out to be not only a supplier of articles, but also a producer of knowledge. These two features give rise to a variety of possible financing schemes for publishing systems. The specific features of knowledge as a private and public good are analyzed. One of them is the high cost of knowledge consumption. Due to this and a number of other circumstances, the market model for financing publication systems is inefficient; the most important task is the transition to open access. Such a transition should be accompanied by improved methods for evaluating the performance of researchers and the quality of journals. The comparison of large groups of objects (e. g., journals or research institutions) is inevitably based on citation indicators, while expertise can play only a supporting role. On the contrary, when it comes to making decisions within a small group, e. g., when allocating given funds among laboratory members, expert evaluations must play a decisive role. The directions of reform of the Russian publication system are discussed, ensuring the reduction of rent-seeking activity and increasing the adequacy of the indicators used.
ЕВОЛЮЦІЯ КОНЦЕПТУ ГУМАНІТАРНОЇ БЕЗПЕКИ В МІЖНАРОДНО-ПРАВОВОМУ ДИСКУРСІ

Актуальність проблеми. Концептуалізація виступає одним з проявів когнітивної діяльності людини, що спрямована на осмислення наявної інформації та призводить до утворення концептів, концептуальних структур, концептуальних схем у її творчій уяві. Головною метою концептуалізації є отримання інформації щодо рівня організації знання, а також визначення універсального алгоритму можливих способів діяльності на теоретичному рівні. Концепція «human security» набула піку популярності на початку 90-х років минулого століття, результатом чого стало оприлюднення в Доповіді «Програми ООН з розвитку (1994)» цілісної Концепції гуманітарної безпеки. Загальне поняття безпеки в документі орієнтується на конкретну людину, зокрема на: забезпечення зайнятості, наявності засобів для існування, охорону здоров'я, безпеку природного середовища [1]. Хоча з моменту оприлюднення Концепції пройшло досить немало часу, сьогодні залишається актуальним твердження що безпековий дискурс в ключі «human security» значно ускладняється відсутністю коректного перекладу дефініції на слов’янські мови, зокрема, і на українську мову зі збереженням змістовного наповнення концепції. Серед дослідників немає єдиної думки щодо компонентів «human security», ефективності нормативного забезпечення сфери, практичної реалізація норм і принципів «human security» на локальному, регіональному та міжнародному рівні [2, с. 47].

Мета роботи – системний аналіз досвіду Ізраїлю щодо формування кадрового потенціалу збройних сил з метою імплементації цього досвіду у національну модель формування кадрового потенціалу ЗСУ. Методологія. Під час дослідження були використані методи систематизації, класифікації, системного та компаративного аналізу. Наукова новизна. полягає в обґрунтуванні ізраїльського досвіду формування кадрового потенціалу збройних сил у національну модель кадрової політики. Висновки. Проведений аналіз дає підстави зазначити, що кадри збройних сил Ізраїлю формуються з урахуванням національної ментальності та сучасних етапів формування боєздатності армії. По-перше, у Ізраїлі існують молодіжні організації, які здійснюють початкову військову підготовку ізраїльської молоді. По-друге, армія в Ізраїлі формується за обов’язковим принципом, тобто існує призов. По-третє, призовники проходять ретельний відбір, який включає: інтерв’ю, на якому призовник повідомляє інформації про себе та своїх близьких; тестування на читання, письмо і розмову на івриті; психотехнічні тести, які впливають на інтегральну оцінку майбутньої кар’єри призовника; тести на перевірку рівня фізичної підготовки рекрута, стану його психіки та інтелектуального потенціалу і багато інших перевірок. По-четверте, особлива увага приділяється бойовому формуванню підрозділів і з цією метою проводяться курси тривалістю до п’яти місяців. По-шосте, існує складна система підготовки кадрів збройних сил. Основний етап підготовки проводиться у відділенні під командуванням, як правило, капрала, що служить за призовом. Тренувальна матеріально-технічна база Армії оборони Ізраїлю має велику кількість різноманітних тренажерів для підготовки танкістів, артилеристів, льотчиків, піхотинців, які дають змогу підготувати військовослужбовця до використання реальної військової техніки в начальних і бойових цілях. По-сьоме, кар’єрне зростання кадрів збройних сил залежить від якості боєздатності, які виявив військовослужбовець у ході служби, а також опанування командними навичками. По-восьме, з метою розвитку кадрів збройних сил Ізраїлю існує ефективна система мотивація, яка включає соціальні пільги, отримання щомісячної допомоги, грошову допомогу на оренду квартири і оплату комунальних послуг, подарункові талони до свят; щомісячні талони на придбання продуктів харчування; допомога у завершенні середньої освіти та підготовки до іспитів на атестат зрілості; ночівля у перші часи після демобілізації і консультації з питань житла; сприяння у пошуках роботи; одноразова позика на різні цілі: оренду й купівлю житла, медичне лікування, освіту, відкриття бізнесу тощо та ін. По-дев’яте, основним принципом роботи Армії оборони Ізраїлю є принцип автоматизованого і логістичного забезпечення діяльності армії. По-десяте, проблема збереження фізичного і психічного здоров’я, працездатності осіб, що беруть участь у військових конфліктах, є дуже актуальною для Ізраїлю.

Автором досліджено що, на сьогодні в Україні реінтеграції населення на територіях, що тимчасово були окуповані, є складною та багатогранною. Це включає в себе не лише питання безпеки, а й економічні, соціальні та політичні аспекти. Підкреслено, що одна з найбільших проблем пов’язаних з реінтеграцією населення полягає в забезпеченні безпеки на території, яка була під контролем окупантів. У цьому контексті важливо забезпечити належний захист населення та його майна, а також зберегти державну та територіальну цілісність. З’ясовано, що на території, яка повернулася під контроль уряду, зазвичай зберігається значна кількість незаконних збройних формувань та озброєних груп. Забезпечення безпеки населення та його майна у цьому контексті є надзвичайно складним завданням, яке потребує ефективних заходів контролю та протидії. Визначено, що реалізація процесу реінтеграції територій може зіткнутися зі значними викликами та перешкодами, такими як наявність озброєних конфліктів, політичні ризики, економічні обмеження та інші фактори. Тому важливо забезпечити належне управління процесом реінтеграції територій та проводити роботу з міжнародними партнерами та організаціями, що можуть надати допомогу у вирішенні цих викликів. У цілому, реалізація процесу реінтеграції територій може стати важливим кроком у забезпеченні миру та стабільності в регіоні, що може мати позитивні наслідки для місцевого населення та загальної безпеки.
Optimal Low-Thrust Transfer from an Earth Parking orbit to a Lyapunov Orbit
Authors: Demir Eda K.
Published: June 2023

Orbits around the equilibrium points in the Earth-Moon and Sun-Earth frames have been investigated in the past to aid with missions like deep space observatory and lunar missions. As the interest in these missions increase, there is now more focus on transfer trajectories to the orbits around the equilibrium points. This thesis studies the optimization of the transfer trajectory from an Earth parking orbit to a Lyapunov orbit about L2 in the Earth-Moon system by implementing the multiple-shooting method. This method, lowers the cost of the transfer by breaking the trajectory into multiple segments which makes it possible to apply smaller but more frequent impulses rather than having to apply bigger impulses at the start and end of the transfer. The result of this thesis shows that the cost of the transfer is lowered by implementing the multiple-shooting method on an initial Hohmann transfer trajectory. The multiple-shooting method was implemented with the use of MATLAB and the trajectories were plotted in a graph to help visualize new points. The new trajectory is also plotted with the initial trajectory to show the difference between the two after a number of iterations. With this method, the cost of the transfer was reduced from J=4.4 to J=3.1034.

This thesis paper discusses the flight performance predictions and experimental data of the solar-powered aircraft, CREATeV that is designed for long-endurance missions. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of different aircraft configurations on the aircraft's endurance and flight conditions. The study analyzes the flight performance of CREATeV using two different airfoils with a total of 9 different configurations, and the results provide recommendations for enhancing the aircraft's endurance in future missions. The procedure involves collecting airfoil data from X-Foil, preparing the input file for FreeWake, obtaining performance and trim results from the software, validating the results using experimental data and performing a comparative analysis of the various configurations. This paper presents results and discussions on the validation of experimental and theoretical data for the RAALB airfoil with free transition. In addition to that, the study conducts three main analyses, namely comparing various airfoil configurations, examining the effect of static margin, and investigating the impact of upward aileron deflection. The results, which were post-processed using MATLAB, show that the experimental and theoretical data are very similar, with certain anomalies expected due to weather conditions. The paper also includes plots that show the total drag, power required, induced drag profile drag, lift coefficient and drag coefficient for the aircraft at a range of angle attacks. Finally, the study explored various design changes that could improve the endurance of an aircraft. The findings suggest that the use of a George airfoil with long span and a center of gravity located at 0.175 m (6.25% static margin) can result in a significant reduction in power required of about 10.7%. In addition to that his study found that deflecting the aileron upwards can reduce drag. These findings suggest that implementing this technique may have potential benefits in terms of improving aircraft performance.
Vibrational Analysis of a Wing with Morphing/Variable Winglets
Authors: Gilani Aman
Published: June 2023

This work presents a numerical and analytical vibrational and structural analysis of a wing model with morphing winglets. The methodology for this analysis is developed by the undergraduate thesis students in collaboration with the faculty at Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly known as Ryerson University) and performs a static structural and modal analysis for the developed wing with morphing winglet model. This report summarizes the modal and static structural analysis conducted on the model. The CAD model for the study was developed on Solidworks while the two analyses were conducted on Ansys. The wing model was developed with four winglet configurations with varying cant angles. Various winglet configurations were designed with variable cant to study the effect of morphing winglet on the structure’s modal analysis. During the structural test, it was observed that the model undergoes a deflection of 0.001 in under the prescribed loading conditions. The modal analysis was completed for the four configurations using similar boundary conditions as for the static structural analysis. The average frequency for the first mode shape for all the configurations were recorded to be 29 Hz.

The results for the modal analysis conducted on Ansys were then verified using an analytical methodology. The equations for this method were developed by modelling the wing as a slender and straight wing with rigid root and no sweep back angles. The procedure for this accounted for the maximum speed of the wind tunnel at Toronto Metropolitan University. The frequency solution obtained from the analytical methodology was then compared to the frequency obtained from the modal analysis completed on Ansys. The frequency at flutter was calculated to be 30 Hz. This validates the assumptions and expectations made prior to both methods of analysis.

The next step for this study would be to build the 3D model of the wing with morphing winglets and conduct a ground vibration testing and wind tunnel testing. The observations made during this study, specifically, the natural frequencies, damping, and mode shapes, can be further compared and validated through conducting the ground vibration testing and wind tunnel testing of these models. By comparing the results, it is possible to validate the numerical models and simulation techniques used for the modal analysis and improve the design of the wing with winglets.
Evolution of Navigation Displays for Urban Air Mobility Vehicles
Authors: Omorodion Jeffery
Published: June 2023

Throughout this report, studies have been conducted to explore the ways in which aviation navigation displays can be modified to ease the operation of UAM vehicles, more specifically in dense urban environments. The granularity of the data displayed to vehicle operators has been studied to determine what is necessary for optimum UAM vehicle movement. Discussion of the applicability in today’s relevant certification standards has also take place as a pathway towards integration in future production vehicles. Heavy emphasis has been placed on the enhanced detection of obstacles and terrain within the proximity of the vehicle. Serving as an enhancement and not a replacement, said detection capabilities have the potential to become part of current navigation display architectures.

Minimizing voids in continuous carbon fiber-reinforced composites made by robotic 3D printing
Authors: Rana Jash
Published: June 2023

This study focuses on optimizing the process parameters for continuous carbon fiber-reinforced composites made by robotic 3D printing to minimize defects such as delamination, gaps, fiber entanglement, non-linear tape consolidation, and voids. The specimens were manufactured by the ABB IRB 1200-05/0.9 6-axis robot with a custom-built 3D print head. Two printing directions were explored, x and y-axis printing. The max change in printing height for x and y-axis printing directions were 25.4 μm (0.001 inches) and 63.5 μm (0.0025 inches), respectively. X-axis printing was the optimal print direction due to its low variation in end effector height and more uniform tape deposition. The coefficient of variation for x and y-axis printing was 0.39 and 1.88, respectively. Gaps formed due to tension build-up resulting from the motion of the print head relative to the laminated tape. This tension caused the tape to warp and become narrower than its nominal width. When printing a single tape at 10.1 mm/s, the width of the printed tape was less than its nominal width. Due to this observation, a minimum tape raster offset (TRO) of 5.50 mm was selected. The micrograph of a 5.50 mm TRO specimen revealed overlaps at each adjacent tape interface. These overlaps resulted in large void formation between overlapping layers. Coupons printed with larger TRO values showed increasingly larger gaps between adjacent tapes.
Generative Design for 3D Printing of Advanced Aerial Drones
Authors: Marino Samuel Osorio
Published: June 2023

In the current study completed in the Facility for Research on Aerospace Materials and Engineered Structures (FRAMES), the feasibility of implementing generative design as a means of optimizing advanced aerial drone structures was explored. By conducting relevant literature review, theoretical investigations, and experimentation, generative design demonstrated its efficacy as a design tool for various engineering structure applications. Generative design uses a series of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to compute various potential geometries for optimized load distribution; it is a powerful tool that provides fast and efficient topology optimized structures. This paper offers insight on the intricacies of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) design and discusses the various complications and advantages of using various drone geometries, manufacturing techniques, and materials. The interdependencies between geometry, manufacturing method, and material are also discussed. As such, the optimal frame type, manufacturing method, and material for optimized drone frame designs was found to be square-type, 3D-printing (MEX/FFF), and PEEK respectively. A generatively designed drone frame was created in Fusion 360 and analyzed using its own finite element analysis (FEA) capabilities; later, physical prototyping and testing verified the results gathered from FEA. This study attempts to re-introduce the feasibility and applicability of generative design in a sophisticated manner with the intention of closing gaps in novel research of drone frame optimization.
Messy Knowledge-Making with Korsakow
Authors: Zallot Vanessa
Published: June 2023

This paper explores interactive documentary production's power dynamics and knowledge-making practices through the ethnographic case study of Christoph, a white media scientist and trained film editor from a Western European country. Christoph's research project, conducted as part of an international and multidisciplinary team, dealt with discourses surrounding a specific restitution case in an African country. The study focuses on Christoph's use of the Korsakow software to create an interactive documentary, examining the complexities he encountered in the field and his efforts to represent them in a powercritical manner.
Throughout the production process, Christoph attempted to address power relations by making himself visible in the documentary and ensuring that his authorial influence remained minimal during the film's assembly. He employed a two-fold strategy that included acquiring shaky footage without a tripod and utilizing materials that might be deemed unusable in traditional production environments. Christoph's use of Korsakow as a tool for assembling his interactive documentary served to represent the complexities he found in the field.
Despite Christoph's powercritical aspirations, he acknowledged the potential bias inherent in the keywording process, stressing the importance of actively pursuing powercritique as a practice. Korsakow, as an interactive and nonlinear tool, offered an experimental environment in which Christoph could explore alternative ways of filmmaking and knowledge-making. This environment facilitated the development of open, complex, and messy practices, challenging conventional filmmaking norms.
This case study raises questions about the knowledge-making practices found in interactive documentaries and how they can inform visual research methodologies. Further research may delve into the methodological implications of these findings and the potential for interactive documentary software to serve as a laboratory for experimental filmmaking practices. By examining Christoph's use of Korsakow and his efforts to navigate power dynamics in creating an interactive documentary, this paper contributes to the broader understanding of knowledge-making in non-linear and interactive film environments.
Reconstructing Transnational History
Authors: Chen Hui
Published: June 2023

Web-based interactive documentaries offer an innovative approach to reconstructing history, allowing users to explore historical content within a specific thematic context freely. This paper explores how transnational shared history, exemplified by World War I (WWI), is integrated into such documentaries, using the interactive documentary A Global Guide to the First World War (2014) as a case study.
This documentary, a collaboration between the Guardian, historians, and the Imperial War Museum, employs interactive technologies and transnational historical narratives. It presents seven video chapters that allow audiences to explore WWI from a global perspective, going beyond the traditional single-narrative viewpoint. The interactive sections are based on a well-designed digital world map that provides users with diverse perspectives on the war, facilitating a broader emotional resonance.
However, while ensuring authenticity, the documentary's use of authoritative narrative strategies tends to create a sense of alienation among viewers. It underscores the importance of incorporating personal narratives alongside official histories to foster deeper engagement and understanding. The paper argues for a more nuanced approach that balances the authoritative historical narratives with individual perspectives.
This study demonstrates that the representation of transnational shared history and multiple perspectives is highly compatible with the interactive technology of web documentaries. The paper concludes that these digital platforms can effectively facilitate global understanding of shared historical events while encouraging critical and dialectical historical reflection.
Dis-locative Spaces and Digital Interactions
Authors: Sharifi Meraj
Published: June 2023

The concept of space constantly is growing with the advancement of technology. The spatial interactions using digital media provide new possibilities to bridge between physical and digital spaces. Location is not all about longitude and latitude, but all the added digital layer which may change the idea of positioning. Over the last decades, space studies faced many conceptual perceptions. The approach of having/imagining the different worlds and spaces, such as cyberspace and physical space, has been mostly formed by distinguishing them. Adriana de Souza e Silva (2006) drew a chronology for these imaginary spaces from cyberspace to virtual and hybrid space. Hybridizing of space with the advancement of nomadic technology like mobiles become more popular and indicates how the interfaces are transparent in our everyday life. So, hybridity occurs when the interconnection of the spaces is accessible for the people who can interact with, through the devices, wearable, headsets, etc. In this respect, the physical space needed to be filled with data, as Manovich (2006, p.226) defined this as augmentation of the space through “overlay[ing] physical space with layers of data.”

The question of reality may not be valid anymore since both are affecting each other. And, maybe it is time to think about the interlinked worlds and their effects rather than separating and labelling them by real and unreal. Technology can play a crucial role in changing our interaction with space.

The paper will investigate the concept of hybrid spaces in relation to production of dis-locative space. The dislocation environment that reveals the interconnected spaces and their realities through new ways of interactions and narratives. The realities that are created under the influence of each other. The paper will use the art project Shadows from Another Place as a case study. It will explore the idea of dis-location through spatial interaction and digital technology. The paper will profit from the theories including Production of Space by Henry Lefebvre, Supermodernity and Non-places by Mark Augé, and Relational Spaces by Scott McQuire.

Paula Levine is a scholar and media artist who experiments with maps, geolocation data, and the dynamic of spaces. Shadows from Another Place is a web-based project using transposed maps, including three artworks San Francisco <-> Baghdad, The Wall, and TheWall-TheWorld. In this series, she tries to challenge the reality of geographical distances by hybridization of the spaces. Shadows from Another Place is a series of artwork that examines the discussion around dis-locative space, and  spatial interaction using digital technology. The paper investigates with three questions of locations and dislocation, real and unreal, and intervening in the physical space by the virtual world and vice versa. Question of Location ‘where am I’? What is un/real? How virtual world affects physical world and vice versa?
English Language Primary Teachers’ Perceptions about Homework: A Replication Study
Authors: Amchich Lamyae
Published: June 2023

This study replicates Matei and Ciasca’s (2015) article about teachers’ perceptions concerning assignments. The purpose of this study is to examine the similarities and differences between the opinions of Math and Romanian primary teachers and primary English teachers, and the main aim of this study is to determine if teachers in this study would focus solely on the efficacy of homework and neglect its negative side as did the teachers in the original study. The data were collected using the original study questionnaire with some slight adaptations. The participants were 71 primary English teachers in Turkey. After the data was collected and analyzed, the results indicated a significant number of similarities between the teachers’ opinions. It was revealed that most teachers have positive perceptions about homework, but compared to the original study, the opinions about homework efficacy and students’ achievement varied and were different. Teachers in the present study have shown some disagreement and did not fully disregard the negative aspects of the assignment. In light of these findings, it was disclosed that teachers in both studies support parents' guidance, daily homework and the use of projects as a supplement. The noticeable difference between the two groups was that teachers in this study were more open to using projects and pair-work assignments.
