Architectural Detail

Vertebral fractures are among the most common and debilitating fractures. Structural organization of cancellous and cortical bone in a vertebra and their local properties are important factors that determine the strength of a vertebra. Linear finite element models utilizing Quantitative Computed Tomography (QCT) images have proven useful for predicting vertebral strength and are potentially useful in predicting risk of fracture in a clinical setting [1]. However, the amount of architectural detail in these models is not sufficient for studying trabecular stress and strains, and their relationship with the microscopic structure, which is important for understanding the mechanisms behind vertebral fragility.

Kidney is a major organ for homeostasis of the body's extracellular fluids by maintaining a constant internal environment. By playing such crucial responsibility kidney remains vulnerable for various diseases and disease condition. Other than laboratory findings, application of ultrasonography can be considered as one of the finest diagnostic tool to determine the architectural detail of kidney. To compare the study, we have taken two groups of canine, namely healthy and clinical. The later grouped was screened based on clinical signs, Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) and Serum Creatinine value. Sonography was performed by using Brightness mode instrument for both the groups. The values were analyzed by Prolate Ellipsoid formula to estimate the volume of kidney. There was significant variation in sizes between the kidneys of both the groups. Moreover, the size of the kidneys of few clinical cases, which has been suffering from renal disorder since long, reveals smaller size kidney than the healthy groups. Thus, this noninvasive method is quite practicable to evaluate the size of kidney amongst various renal failure cases. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/ralf.v1i1.22373 Res. Agric., Livest.

The City

At the moment there are few comprehensive texts or instruments that allow architects, designers, historians, planners or even students the ability to understand the complex layers of a city’s urban fabric. As a result, this paper was prepared in order to be uploaded to a digital tool that allows for such exploration of the built environment.   The transformation of the city of Rome is documented in a number of sources and as a result makes it the ideal city for study of architectural and urban evolution.  As a case study in digital documentation this paper examines the medieval façade porticoes of Rome at three scales: urban, architectural, and detail.  The identification and mapping of these structures, are shown together allowing one to examine them in relation to historic and present day city maps.  In addition, their location is analyzed in relation to ancient Roman streets and historic processional routes, to observe the connection amongst their location and that of major thoroughfares of antiquity, the Middle Ages, and the Renaissance.  At the architectural scale, the detailed documentation in plan and elevation reveal four distinct variations that existed in the use of the residential façade portico.  At the scale of architectural detail, an inventory of reused architectural elements or spolia that make up the residential porticoes reveal the reuse of ancient Roman column shafts, bases and capitals as well as the medieval masons’ preference for the use of the Ionic capital in particular.  This paper prepares a methodology for digital deployment of traditional scholarship focused on architecture and the built environment.

Architectural Detail

The removal of noise from signals obtained through the health monitoring systems in gas turbines is an important consideration for accurate prognostics.  Several filters have been designed and tested for this purpose, and their performance analysis has been conducted. Linear filters are inefficient in the removal of outliers and noise because they cause smoothening of the sharp features in the signal which can indicate the onset of a fault event. On the other hand, non-linear filters based on image processing methods can provide more precise results for gas turbine health signals. Among others, the weighted recursive median (WRM) filter has been shown to provide greater accuracy due to its weight adaptability depending on the signal type. However, sampling data at high rates is possible which needs hardware implementation of the filter. In this paper, the design, simulation and implementation of WRM filters on the FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) platforms Vivado Design Suite by Xilinx and Quartus Pro Lite Edition 19.3 has been performed. The architectural detail and performance result with the FPGA filters when subjected to abrupt and gradual fault signal is presented.

Architectural Detail

Before Television New Zealand closed its drama department in 1988 and production became outsourced, 55 episodes of the memorable series Gloss had been made at in the Browns Bay sound studio in Auckland. Screening between 1987 and 1990, the series was based on the experiences of writer Rosemary McLeod's years in the internecine world of women's magazines. Revolving around the machinations of fictional magazine editor and high priestess of fashion Maxine Redfern and her dynastic family, the series deployed architectural detail as readily as it did Liz Mitchell's costume designs in order to evoke an era of conspicuous consumption. Sumptuous production designs characterised the sets, with the interiors of the offices of the fictional magazine Gloss itself remarkable for their evocation of glamour and glitz. Domestic spaces inhabited by the extraordinary characters also conveyed materialism and superficiality through furnishings and design, doing much to contribute to characterisation of Aucklanders as immoral show-offs with poor value systems. The trappings of success in a materialistic world included the worst features of postmodern architecture, it would seem. As the title song for the series went, “It's the gilt off the gingerbread/The icing on the cake/It's monuments and mirrorglass/The city's on the make/Devil take the hindmost/So no one counts the cost/Such a sweet seduction/Glosssssssss."
