Decoding Kashgar: A Digital Design Approach to Steer and Diversify Creative Engagement in Digital Heritage
Authors:   , Aydin Serdar 
Published: November 2021

<p>Digital tools have become critical instruments in preserving and communicating the value of heritage as important cultural expressions of the past. A consequence of digitalisation is the democratisation of heritage institutions, such as museums, which are found to value increasingly new types of content and new profiles of audiences. Digitisation plays a vital role in the alteration of the convictions of the heritage field to ‘materiality’ and ‘actuality.’ Although researchers acknowledge the significance of digital heritage in leading us into new ways of expressing ‘authenticity’ and ‘virtuality,’ studies have been confined to heritage activities comprised of digital documentation, representation and dissemination. Previous studies have reported on the role of public engagement in digital heritage which is criticised as consumptive, passive, guided and descriptive. Instead, the motivation of this research is to explore a new role that is ‘generative,’ ‘active’ and ‘creative’ for the production of heritage knowledge. This dissertation demonstrates an innovative digital design approach to creative and participatory content-making in digital heritage. The research investigated the use of creative content generated collaboratively for knowledge production and acquisition in architectural heritage and tested in Kashgar, the westernmost city in China. The research conceives an interdisciplinary methodology, integrating design with the standard activities involved in digital heritage. This dissertation is undertaken using different digital media equipment for collaboratively expressing authenticity and virtuality of heritage information. The research examines the role of creative engagement for constructing digital heritage. Creative engagement in a hybrid immersive virtual reality environment is experimented with and findings are analysed qualitatively. Then, to measure the outcome of creative engagement quantitatively, a well-known technique in data mining is used to expose undisclosed patterns. It is the first time in digital heritage that a study employs association rule mining to interpret user-generated content. The qualitative findings of two initial experiments are synthesised with quantitative results of the third experiment to investigate how the creative contribution of people in content-making is generalizable. The investigations foster the advancement of research and practice in digital heritage beyond the frontiers of current knowledge. There is a number of fields that can apply the results of this research, including cultural heritage, computer-aided architectural design, museology, new media, TV, education, MOOC, streaming, as well as culture and game studies.</p>
One In Seven
Authors:   , Browning James 
Published: November 2021

<p>Like many cities across South America, Caracas is a city of widespread informal settlements, with over a third of the city’s population living in slums. South America’s urban slums are expected to continue their rapid expansion, with an estimated 113 million people across the continent living in sprawling slums beyond the reach of official planning and regulation. These communities develop for many reasons; lack of affordable housing; large urban migration; or high levels of poverty. As people become frustrated with their situation they begin to build on empty areas in the city, continuously expanding and adding to the urban sprawl. However, South American cities are already highly developed, urban space is at a premium, and there’s limited space for new construction. How can we improve the conditions within these informal communities rather than following the usual approach of force relocations into, often insufficient in number and inadequate in design, social housing? Forced relocations split communities apart and move inhabitants away from work and amenities, and often does nothing to slow the growth of informal settlements due to the limited number of social housing available. This research proposes to form a self-sustainable architectural framework that integrates into the existing informal settlements without unnecessary harm or relocation of the city’s urban poor, to improve their quality of life. The research argues that new strategies of regeneration that seek to promote a collaborative construction of the physical environment, would boost neighbourhood development and improve existing conditions without undue harm to the people it attempts to help. The regeneration strategy would be a system which works on 3 scales to solve basic problems, such as water, power, and community spaces through sustainable means. This system would be the starting point of a revitalization process, helping to improve the permanence and resilience of these communities.</p>
Validation of CFD Predictions of Urban Wind - Developing a Methodology
Authors:   , Willis Riley 
Published: November 2021

<p>“Good mental health in a fluid or CFD modeller is always indicated by the presence of a suspicious nature, cynicism and a ‘show me’ attitude. These are not necessarily the best traits for a life mate or a best friend, but they are essential if the integrity of the modelling process is to be maintained.” (Meroney, 2004) Over the past 50 years, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) computer simulation programs have offered a new method of calculating the wind comfort and safety data for use in pedestrian wind studies. CFD models claim to have some important advantages over wind tunnels; which remain the most common method of wind calculation. While wind tunnels provide measurements of selected points, CFD simulations provide whole-flow field data for the entire area under investigation (Blocken, 2014; Blocken, Stathopoulos, & van Beeck, 2016). Similarly, wind tunnel measurements must consider the similarity requirements involved with testing a model at small scale, while CFD simulations can avoid this as they are conducted at full scale (Ramponi & Blocken, 2012a). However, CFD simulations can also often be misleading; and they should only be trusted once they can be proven to be accurate. To appease the requirements for this cynical view- referenced in the above quote- proper verification and validation of a model is imperative. This thesis investigated and tested the current best practice guidelines around CFD model validation, using existing wind tunnel measurements of generic urban arrays. The goal of the research was to determine whether the existing data and guidance around the validation process was sufficient for a consultant user to trust that a CFD model they created was sufficiently accurate to base design decisions from. The CFD code Autodesk CFD was used to simulate two configurations first tested as wind tunnel models by the Architectural Institute of Japan, and Opus labs in Wellington. The Wellington City Council wind speed criteria were used to determine whether the CFD simulations met the required accuracy criteria for council consent. Results from the study found that the CFD models could not meet the accuracy criteria. It concluded that while the validation process provided sufficient guidance, there is a lack of available data which is relevant to CFD validation for urban flows. It was recommended that at least one improved dataset was required, to build a system by which a consultant can identify what the requirements of a CFD model are to provide accurate CFD analysis of the site under investigation. To accommodate the range of sites likely to be present in urban wind studies, it was recommended that the new dataset provided data for a variety of wind flows likely to be found in cities.</p>
Another elderly lady to be knocked down: Heritage discourse and the protest to save the Missions to Seamen building, 1986
Authors:   , Gordon Alexander 
Published: November 2021

<p>Through a specific historical case study, Another Elderly Lady to be Knocked Down applies discourse theory and the Authorised Heritage Discourse (AHD) to the context of urban built heritage in Aotearoa New Zealand. Previously, only limited work had been done in this area. By examining an underexplored event this dissertation fills two gaps in present literature: the history of the event itself and identification of the heritage discourses in the country at the time. Examination of these discourses in context also allows conclusions about the use of the AHD in similar studies to be critically examined. In 1986 the Missions to Seamen building in Wellington, New Zealand, was threatened with demolition by its government owners. In a remarkable display of popular sentiment, individuals, organisations, the Wellington City Council (WCC) and the New Zealand Historic Places Trust (NZHPT) worked together to oppose this unpopular decision. This protest was a seminal event in the history of heritage in New Zealand. This study relies upon documentary sources, especially the archival records of the Historic Places Trust and the State Services Commission, who owned the building, to provide the history of this watershed moment in New Zealand’s preservation movement. The prevalent attitudes of different groups in Wellington are examined through the letters of protest they wrote at the time. When analysed in context, these discourses reveal the ways in which heritage was articulated and constructed. The course of this dissertation has revealed the difficulty of identifying an AHD in this context. The level of collaboration between ‘official’ and ‘unofficial’ heritage perspectives, and the extent to which they shaped each other’s language, creates considerable difficulty in distinguishing between discreet discourses. To better explore the ways that heritage meaning is constructed and articulated, heritage must be recognised as a complex dynamic process.</p>
Support for independence: Cross-generational Housing for Elderly & Millennial Students
Authors:   , Griffith Johanna 
Published: November 2021

<p>Statistics New Zealand estimates that by 2031, one in four Canterbury residents will be aged 65+ (Canterbury City Council). Accelerated ‘baby boomer’ population growth has shifted Christchurch’s current age distribution into a period of demographic transition. The implications of this shift means a likely increase in demand for “future proof” housing as dependency ratios accelerate beyond historic records (Davey 1). The term “future proof” factors in the rise in demand for accessible housing and potential for social isolation once an individual is widowed or physically impaired. Housing suitability is equally problematic for today’s millennial cohort. Rising rental prices and limited choice have also become a problem for Christchurch’s student population. Within this group, students at Christchurch’s main polytechnic (ARA) are of greatest concern due to a severe shortage of student accommodation. The institute currently offers 192 beds, a 267 per cent increase than what was available a year ago but an overflow of demand remains (Lee A1). This research proposes the establishment of an aged care facility, which incorporates student accommodation. Following a design-led research approach, this body of work has been developed by first identifying the problems faced by the client cohorts and then actively exploring possible solutions through design. These solutions are supplemented by a process of participatory observation. This involved moving in with my Nan for a period of 6 months. I actively recorded our experiences including the challenges and benefits found within this form of living. Designing an alternative that recognises the needs and wants of the baby boomer generation, could delay the need for social welfare intervention, while providing an option for students facing the harsh reality of New Zealand’s housing market.</p>
Impacts of Participatory Forest Management on Community Livelihood: Case study of Kereita forest Kenya
Authors:   , Gichuki Leah 
Published: November 2021

<p>Since the 1990s there has been an increasing shift in the management of natural resources from state control to participatory approaches. Many developing countries, including Kenya, have promoted participatory forest management (PFM) as a strategy for enhancing forest conservation and the sustainable use of forest resources through community participation. Drawing on a case study of the Kereita forest, in the central highlands of Kenya, this research explores the impact of PFM on community livelihood. Using a post-structural political ecology approach and qualitative research methods, I conducted and analysed 18 semi-structured interviews. Results indicate that the implementation of PFM has changed how the community access forest products. PFM, through processes of inclusion and exclusion, has had both positive and negative effects on community livelihoods. New opportunities were opened, for instance, increased awareness about forest conservation led to a women’s group developing alternative livelihood pathways. In contrast, the development of a new eco-lodge disrupted community plans to rehabilitate that area. This case study also reflected other critiques of PFM in terms of who holds ultimate authority; ultimately, the government retained a lot of control in forest management, and PFM processes have concentrated power with the government and channelled certain livelihood outcomes that benefit the already wealthy. These uneven power relations between the community and the government produce and perpetuate conflicts in implementing PFM hence hampering livelihood improvement. Furthermore, I argue that PFM has created and embedded both visible and invisible boundaries – through fences and permits, for instance – that regulate what takes place where, and who accesses what. To sustain the development of good community livelihoods through PFM, this research calls for continued interrogations of power imbalances within current PFM structures.</p>
Belirtme Durumu Çekiminin Kommunist Gazetesi Örneğinde Sovyet Dönemi Azerbaycan Türkçesindeki Değişimi ve Bu Değişimde SSCB’nin Dil Planlaması Politikasının Etkisi

Published: November 2021

Türk dilinin durum (hâl) çekimlerinden biri olan belirtme durumu, ekli (+I) veya eksiz (Ø) olmak üzere iki biçimde gerçekleşir. Ekli belirtme durumu çekiminin, Türk yazı dillerinde farklı ses ve biçim özellikleriyle kullanıldığı görülmektedir.
Eski Türkçe döneminde ana hatlarıyla ortak bir biçimde yapılan bu çekimin; 11. yüzyıldan itibaren doğu, kuzey ve batı bölgelerindeki üç farklı coğrafyada gelişimini sürdüren Türk yazı dili geleneklerinde farklı biçimbirimlerle yapıldığı görülmektedir. Bu farklılıkların görüldüğü kollardan biri de Oğuzcadır. Batı Oğuzcanın doğu kolunu oluşturan Azerbaycan Türkçesinin tarihî gelişim sürecinde de bu çekiminin biçimbirimlerinde çeşitli değişimler görülmektedir. Bu değişimler, özellikle farklı alfabelerin kullanıldığı Sovyet Dönemi Azerbaycan basınına da açık bir biçimde yansımıştır.
Azerbaycan Komünist Parti Merkezi Komitesi’nin yayın organı olması nedeniyle Sovyet Dönemi Azerbaycan Türkçesinin en önemli gazetesi olan Kommunist gazetesi, 29 Ağustos 1919-27 Ağustos 1991 tarihleri arasında Arap, Latin ve Kiril olmak üzere üç farklı alfabede yayımlanmıştır. Bu özelliği nedeniyle, Azerbaycan Türkçesindeki ses ve yazım değişimlerinin incelenebilmesi açısından eşsiz bir öneme sahiptir. Bu açıdan bakıldığında özellikle Oğuz Türkçesinde belirgin değişimleri görülen belirtme durumu çekiminin gazetenin farklı alfabelerle yayımlanmış sayılarındaki örnekleri bu değişimin niteliğini açık bir biçimde göstermektedir. Ancak değişimin alfabelere göre farklılık göstermesi, değişimlerin doğal bir süreç içerisinde değil, SSCB’nin dil plânlaması politikası sonucunda olabileceğini düşündürmüştür.
Bu çalışmada, belirtme durumu çekiminin tarihî gelişimi, Azerbaycan Türkçesinin yazı dili olma sürecindeki değişimi, bu değişimin Arap, Latin ve Kiril harfli metinlerdeki görünümü Kommunist gazetesindeki farklı alfabelerle yayımlanmış metinler örneklemi üzerinde incelenmiş ve bu değişimlerin Azerbaycan ile Türkiye Türklüğünün kullandığı ortak yazı dilini ayırmaya yönelik politik dil planlamasının bir parçası olup olmadığı üzerinde durulmuştur.

Published: November 2021

En los sectores rurales se utilizan estrategias ancestrales como la minga, la organización vecinal y el convite de alimentos, entre otras, para solucionar problemas emergentes. El presente estudio se realizó en las comunas de Cubinche y Guaraquí, en la parroquia La Esperanza, del cantón Pedro Moncayo, provincia Pichincha, Ecuador. En esas comunidades se estudió la participación activa de las mujeres en las diferentes estrategias ancestrales, así como la contribución que hacen en las redes de comunicación, adhesión, abastecimiento, trabajo colectivo, entre otras, que configuran una forma original de participación ciudadana, un ejercicio alternativo de ciudadanía. La investigación permitió evidenciar que la mujer campesina conquista derechos a través de su participación activa en la vida cotidiana de las comunas, a pesar de que todavía subsisten el machismo y la discriminación que limitan liderazgos y obstruyen la efectiva integración en escenarios de política local.

Role of Radiotherapy in the Management of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: Debate and Discordance in Clinical Trials
Authors: Mandal Avik 
Published: November 2021

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAC) is an extremely fatal malignancy with dismal outcome with standard treatment till date. Investigators are constantly in search of optimal treatment approach and radiation therapy (RT) remains in the centre of debate. Human pancreatic cancer cell lines have shown both intrinsic and hypoxia induced radio resistance, and RT has produced conflicting results as well in the various clinical trials. However, most of the American studies continued the use of RT as a potential treatment modality but the European school of thought is widely criticized for their ‘therapeutic nihilism’ towards radiation and faulty clinical trial designs. This article has reviewed the available literature on the evolving role of RT for the management of resectable and borderline resectable PAC and has highlighted the increasing trend towards the use of radiotherapy for both adjuvant and neo adjuvant treatment. With the advent of modern RT techniques, the acute and late toxicities are much less than the earlier time, and therefore augmented RT is expected to produce better clinical outcomes for the patients with pancreatic carcinoma.
