Four Propositions towards a Designed Future

Burton 한국국제미술교육학회 2018 미술과 교육 Vol.19 No.1

My presentation is an attempt to look into the changing world of culture and make central the discipline of artistic practice in education. It suggests that future art teachers educated as artists need to construct fluid, flexible and complex pedagogical repertoires that help them support the diverse needs of pupils and meet the challenges of contemporary schooling. I suggest that art education should be thought of as a “crossroads” discipline centered in art as reflective inquiry and the flexible organizations of pedagogical practice in supporting teaching and learning within the complex and changing ecological contexts of schools.

ASTRONOMY FROM THE HIGH ANTARCTIC PLATEAU

BURTON, MICHAEL G.,YANG, JI,ICHIKAWA, TAKASHI The Korean Astronomical Society 2015 天文學論叢 Vol.30 No.2

The Antarctic high plateau offers exceptional conditions for infrared and terahertz astronomy, as well as for programs requiring long, uninterrupted periods for measurements made with high cadence and photometric precision (i.e. time domain astronomy). In this review we summarise the special conditions of the Antarctic plateau which facilitate these observing regimes. We also outline some high profile science programs in each that could be conducted most effectively from the Antarctic high plateau, involving the first light in the Universe, the life cycle of our Galaxy, and the equation of state for the Universe. Three high plateau sites are under particular consideration for furthering such scientific programs{Dome A, Dome F and Ridge A. We summarise the activity underway at each site, which includes the building of new stations and the construction of facilities for optical, infrared and terahertz astronomy, as well as the plans for their future development.

Effect of low frequency motion on the performance of a dynamic manual tracking task

Burton, Melissa D.,Kwok, Kenny C.S.,Hitchcock, Peter A. Techno-Press 2011 Wind and Structures, An International Journal (WAS Vol.14 No.6

The assessment of wind-induced motion plays an important role in the development and design of the majority of today's structures that push the limits of engineering knowledge. A vital part of the design is the prediction of wind-induced tall building motion and the assessment of its effects on occupant comfort. Little of the research that has led to the development of the various international standards for occupant comfort criteria have considered the effects of the low-frequency motion on task performance and interference with building occupants' daily activities. It has only recently become more widely recognized that it is no longer reasonable to assume that the level of motion that a tall building undergoes in a windstorm will fall below an occupants' level of perception and little is known about how this motion perception could also impact on task performance. Experimental research was conducted to evaluate the performance of individuals engaged in a manual tracking task while subjected to low level vibration in the frequency range of 0.125 Hz-0.50 Hz. The investigations were carried out under narrow-band random vibration with accelerations ranging from 2 milli-g to 30 milli-g (where 1 milli-g = 0.0098 $m/s^2$) and included a control condition. The frequencies and accelerations simulated are representative of the level of motion expected to occur in a tall building (heights in the range of 100 m -350 m) once every few months to once every few years. Performance of the test subjects with and without vibration was determined for 15 separate test conditions and evaluated in terms of time taken to complete a task and accuracy per trial. Overall, the performance under the vibration conditions did not vary significantly from that of the control condition, nor was there a statistically significant degradation or improvement trend in performance ability as a function of increasing frequency or acceleration.

Wind-Induced Motion of Tall Buildings: Designing for Occupant Comfort

Burton, M.D.,Kwok, K.C.S.,Abdelrazaq, A. Council on Tall Building and Urban Habitat Korea 2015 International journal of high-rise buildings Vol.4 No.1

A team of researchers and practitioners were recently assembled to prepare a monograph on "Wind-Induced Motion of Tall Buildings: Designing for Habitability". This monograph presents a state-of-the-art report of occupant response to wind-induced building motion and acceptability criteria for wind-excited tall buildings. It provides background information on a range of pertinent subjects, including: ${\bullet}$ Physiological, psychological and behavioural traits of occupant response to wind-induced building motion; ${\bullet}$ A summary of investigations and findings of human response to real and simulated building motions based on field studies and motion simulator experiments; ${\bullet}$ A review of serviceability criteria to assess the acceptability of wind-induced building motion adopted by international and country-based standards organizations; ${\bullet}$ General acceptance guidelines of occupant response to wind-induced building motion based on peak acceleration thresholds; and ${\bullet}$ Mitigation strategies to reduce wind-induced building motion through structural optimization, aerodynamic treatment and vibration dissipation/absorption. This monograph is to be published by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and equips building owners and tall building design professionals with a better understanding of the complex nature of occupant response to and acceptability of wind-induced building motion. This paper is a brief summary of the works reported in the monograph.

Designing High Performance MEP Systems for Supertall Buildings: A Review of Challenges and Opportunities

Burton, Craig Council on Tall Building and Urban Habitat Korea 2017 International journal of high-rise buildings Vol.6 No.4

The design and construction of supertall buildings has grown dramatically in recent years. This area of practice has traditionally fallen within the purview of a very small group of architects and engineers, but this is rapidly changing, as unprecedented growth and densification has spread to markets not traditionally known for high rise construction. The design community has been increasingly committed to the adoption of green and sustainable design, and the integration of smarter, cleaner technologies across the building spectrum. This paper examines current supertall design trends, and suggests that recently completed and planned projects are trending towards more sustainable solutions, and that a unique set of best practices are emerging specific to Supertalls.

AN INVARIANCE PRINCIPLE FOR ASSOCIATED RANDOM FIELDS

Applying Known tightness criteria to Poisson cluster random mea-sures, it is shown that if the total member size has a finite 2+δmoment, then the random measure satisfies an invariance principle.
