Item Metadata only Barriers to Machinima(2014) Harwood, TracyItem Metadata only Comparison of small and large-scale wheel tracking devices(Lavoisier, 2009) Bodin, D.; Grenfell, J.; Collop, AndyThis paper presents a comparison of results from two wheel tracking devices. It is part of a larger on-going collaborative research project between the University of Nottingham in the UK, Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands and LCPC in France on the development and Finite Element (FE) implementation of a non-linear elasto-visco-plastic constitutive model for asphalt. Two devices, a large scale and small scale device, encompassed by the European Standard and the former British Standard were used. Rutting evaluation at the same temperature, on two different materials for pavement surface layers was tested under the same conditions allowing the evaluation of the rutting rate to be determined which was found to be very close from one test to another but sensitive to mixture type. In addition to rutting results, the contact dimensions and pressures from the two devices are evaluated in both the static case and during motion using a flat force transducer on the surface of the slab. The stresses induced in the slabs were calculated using finite element simulations and the measured contact conditions. For different pressure distributions under the wheel the isotropic and deviatoric stresses at the centre of the slab were compared which showed the importance of a good understanding of the wheel/slab contact conditions. The paper provides experimental rutting results obtained at the same temperatures for two characteristic materials on two devices. For future mechanical modelling the wheel print was found to be smaller during the motion than static prints. For wheels using inflated tyres a constant pressure over and elliptic area was found to be appropriate. For hard rubber wheels a rectangular area with an elliptic pressure distribution is more realistic.Item Metadata only Estuaries 1(Bat Hat Media, 2016) Battey, B.'Estuaries 1' is the first of the Estuaries series of audiovisual compositions, which explore the expressive potentials of the author's Variable-Coupled Map Networks and OptiNelder methods for generative music and image. It evokes an 'unstable stasis' through processes that are always on the edge of destabilisation.Item Metadata only Estuaries 2(Bat Hat Media, 2017) Battey, B.'Estuaries 2' is the second of the author's Estuaries series of audiovisual compositions, which explore the expressive potential of the authors Variable-Coupled Map Networks and OptiNelder methods for generative music and images. 'Estuaries 2' focuses on dialog between grid-based logic and all-over textures with random distributions,Item Metadata only Estuaries 3(Bat Hat Media, 2017-11) Battey, B.'Estuaries 3' is the third of the author's Estuaries series of audiovisual compositions, which explore the expressive potential of the author's Variable-Coupled Map Networks and the author's OptiNelder video filter for generative music and images.Item Metadata only The Future of Machinima(2014) Harwood, TracyItem Metadata only Introduction to the Walker Family(2015) Harwood, Tracy; Garry, TonyItem Metadata only Machinima & Me(2014) Harwood, TracyItem Metadata only Machinima Community Creators(2014) Harwood, TracyItem Metadata only Rainbows Children's Hospice Garden at RHS Chelsea Flower Show(2012) Harwood, Tracy; Jones, M.Item Open Access Sketches for Esther Rollinson's "Splinter" artwork(2014-10-23) Everitt, DaveDetailed digital sketches using the Java programming language and the Processing environment, derived from initial work with Esther Rolinson's light sculptures "Splinter" and "Thread".Item Metadata only Study Towards an Illustrated Raga Bhairavi(Bat Hat Media, 2016) Battey, B.Vocalists performing in the North-Indian Khyaal classical tradition often move their upper body, head and arms in spontaneous gestures that seem to present a kind of parallel discourse with music itself. Given that the movement of the Khyaal vocalist is itself an physical interpretation of the music, it seems that this movement could act as a bridge between the domain of music and the domain of visuals. This animation is an early-stage experiment in using motion-tracking of an Indian classical vocalist's gestures to control abstract animated visuals. It is based on an audio and motion-tracking recording of Khayal vocalist Tofail Ahmed.Item Metadata only Three Breaths in Empty Space(Bat Hat Media, 2019-11-19) Battey, B."Three Breaths in Empty Space" is an audiovisual installation artwork, commissioned by Phoenix Cinema, Leicester, for the 10th-anniversary of their move to Phoenix Square. It takes the form of a two-screen-wide projection and quadraphonic audio. Created using custom software designed by the artist, the abstract sound and visuals shift continuously, recalling a range of structures and patterns from the natural world. The piece invites the audience to become deeply absorbed as the audiovisual process unfolds.Item Metadata only Traces, Molten(2022-09) Battey, B."Traces, Molten" is an audiovisual installation for two-HD-screen-wide projection (3840x1080) and stereo sound, created for the British Science Festival 2022. It invites contemplation of a continually transforming immersive sound and image landscape, driven by mathematical processes. Perhaps this is a glimpse of the exquisite, molten dance of millions of sub-atomic particles — or traces of an intangible order underlying the cosmos.
