Camp Perry Historic District landscape inventory and viewshed analysis

The National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (NHPA) established the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), which requires federal agencies to address their cultural resources, defined as any prehistoric or historic district, site, building, structure, or object. NHPA section 110 requires federal agencies to inventory and evaluate their cultural resources. Section 106 requires them to determine the effect of federal undertakings on properties deemed eligible or potentially eligible for the NRHP. Camp Perry Joint Training Center (Camp Perry) is located near Port Clinton, Ohio, and serves as an Ohio Army National Guard (OHARNG) training site. It served as an induction center during federal draft periods and as a prisoner of war camp during World War II. Previous work established boundaries for an historic district and recommended the district eligible for the NRHP. This project inventoried and evaluated Camp Perry’s historic cultural landscape and outlined approaches and recommendations for treatment by Camp Perry cultural resources management. Based on the landscape evaluation, recommendations of a historic district boundary change were made based on the small number of contributing resources to aid future Section 106 processes and/or development of a programmatic agreement in consultation with the Ohio State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO).

Mathematical modeling of convection drying process of wood taking into account the boundary of phase transitions

The article deals with constructing and implementing mathematical models of non-isothermal moisture transfer during drying of anisotropic capillary-porous materials, in particular wood, taking into account the movement of the evaporation zone for non-steady drying schedules, as well as to the development of effective analytical and numerical methods for their implementation. An analytical-numerical method for the determination of non-isothermal moisture transfer under non-steady schedules of the drying process has been developed, taking into account the dynamics of the phase transition boundary change. Calculation relationships are established for determining the phase transition temperature taking into account transport gradients and time for which the relative saturation reaches the boundaries of the phase transition.

Syntactic predictability modulates parafoveal processing of inflectional morphology: evidence from word n+1 in Russian

We present the first investigation of parafoveal syntactic predictability modulation of inflectional morphology. Earlier eye-tracking studies with boundary-change manipulations have established that highly expected (78% Cloze test score) morphologically related preview have been integrated into the message level sentence stream as the related preview yielded preview cost over both the identical (no-change grammatical but less expected (22% Cloze test score)) and nonword previews (Stoops & Christianson, 2017; 2019). The current study reversed the syntactic expectations for the identical (94% Cloze test score) and related (ungrammatical 0% Cloze test score) previews and found only word-level facilitation of the ungrammatical related preview. Both frequentist and Bayesian linear mixed-effect models revealed that the related preview did not differ from identical in any of the measures and yielded a preview benefit over nonword previews in the total time. Further work is needed to understand the role of syntactic predictability on parafoveal processing in reading.
