They’re like a portal to a mysterious part of Turtle Bay few know about or visit
The serenity of this hidden park stands in contrast to the tragedy that inspired its name
Peter Detmold (below) was a World War II veteran who made his home in Turtle Bay Gardens
the beautifully restored brownstones spanning East 48th and East 49th Streets between Second and Third Avenues
As president of the Turtle Bay Association
he led the fight in the 1960s and early 1970s to preserve the character of the neighborhood
“When landowners began to rent out office space in residentially zoned areas, Detmold defended the rights of tenants and homeowners, protecting the quiet, neighborly spirit of the area, now a designated historic district,” states the NYC Parks website
But Detmold’s time as a community activist was cut short
after walking home from a Turtle Bay Association meeting with two colleagues
Detmold was murdered in the stairwell of his apartment building
“According to police reports, the 48-year-old Detmold was stabbed as he entered his five-story walk-up building,” explained Pamela Hanlon in her book
Manhattan’s Turtle Bay: The Story of a Midtown Neighborhood
“He struggled to reach his top-floor apartment
He was pronounced dead on arrival at Bellevue Hospital.”
The park was named for Detmold later that year

What happens to neutrinos inside a collapsing star after a supernova
How did atomic nuclei form from protons and neutrons in the first few minutes after the Big Bang
Simulating these mysterious processes requires some extremely complex calculations
Theoretical physicist William Detmold marshals these tools to “look” into the quantum realm
“Improved calculations of these processes enable us to learn about fundamental properties of the universe,” he says
Understanding the structure of the proton and its properties seems pretty important to me.”
Researchers at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)
investigate those properties by smashing particles together and poring over the subatomic wreckage for clues to what makes up and binds together matter
an associate professor in the Department of Physics and a member of the Center for Theoretical Physics and the Laboratory for Nuclear Science
starts instead from first principles — namely
the theory of the Standard Model of particle physics
The Standard Model describes three of the four fundamental forces of particle physics (with the exception of gravity) and all of the known subatomic particles
The theory has succeeded in predicting the results of experiments time and time again
the 2011 confirmation by LHC researchers of the existence of the Higgs boson.
A core focus of Detmold’s research is on “confronting experimental data” from experiments such as the LHC
and sifting through the enormous quantity of statistics they crank out — a process that can take from six months to several years — Detmold and his team then “take all that data and do a lot of analysis to extract key physics quantities — for example
as a numerical value with an uncertainty range.”
“My driving concern in this regard is how will this analysis impact experimental results,” Detmold says
we do these calculations in order to interpret experiments done at the LHC
and ask: Is the Standard Model describing what’s going on there?”
Detmold has made important advances in solving the complex equations of quantum chromodynamics (QCD)
a quantum field theory that describes the strong interactions inside of a proton
between quarks (the smallest known constituent of matter) and gluons (the forces that bind them together)
He has performed some of the first QCD calculations of certain particle decays reactions
aligned very closely with results from the LHC
“There are no really stark discrepancies between the Standard Model and LHC results
but there are some interesting tensions,” he says
“My work has been looking at some of those tensions.”
Detmold’s interest in quantum physics dates to his schoolboy days
“I remember reading a bunch of popular science books as a young kid,” he recalls
and wanting to get into the mathematical tools to work with them.”
He would go on to earn both his bachelors degree and PhD from the University of Adelaide
he encountered a professor who opened his eyes to the mysteries of quantum mechanics
“It was probably the most exciting class I’ve had
He’s been teaching that introductory course on quantum mechanics at MIT for a few years now
and he has become adept at spotting those students who are similarly seized by the subject
“In every class there are students you can see the enthusiasm dripping off the page as they write their problem sets
While he can’t always bring the full complexity of his research into those conversations
he tries to infuse them with the spirit of his enterprise: how to ask the questions that might yield new insights into the deep structures of the universe
“You can frame things in ways to inspire students to go into research and push themselves to learn more,” he says
“A lot of teaching is about motivating students to go and find out more themselves
And hopefully I inspire my students the way my professor inspired me.”
He adds: “With all of us stuck at home or in remote locations
I’m not sure that anyone is feeling particularly inspired right now
and sometimes getting lost in the intricacies of Maxwell’s equations gives a nice break from what is going on in the world.”
When he isn’t teaching or analyzing supercomputer data
Detmold is often helping to plan better experiments
a facility planned for construction over the next decade at Brookhaven National Lab on Long Island
aims to advance understanding of the internal structure of the proton
Some of Detmold’s calculations are aimed at providing a qualitative picture of the structure of gluons inside the proton
to help the project’s designers know what to look for
in terms of orders of magnitude for detecting certain quantities
“We can make predictions for what we’ll be seeing if you design it in a certain way,” he says
Detmold has also become something of an expert at orchestrating complex supercomputing projects
That entails figuring out how to run a huge number of calculations in an efficient way
given the limited availability of supercomputing power and time
He and his lab members have developed algorithms and software infrastructure to run these calculations on massive supercomputers
some of which have different types of processing units that make data management complicated
how to perform those calculations in a way that’s efficient.”
Detmold spends time working on how improve methods for getting to the answer
are a key to advancing computation to tackle new problems
calculating nuclear structures and reactions in the context of the Standard Model
“Let’s say there’s a quantity we want to compute
but with the tools we have at the moment it takes 10,000 years of running a massive supercomputer,” he says
“Coming up with a new way to calculate something that actually makes it possible to do — that’s exciting.”
But fundamental mysteries are still at the center of Detmold’s work
As quarks and gluons get farther apart from each other
the strength of their interactions increases
To understand what’s happening in these low-energy states
he has advanced the use of a computational technique known as lattice quantum chromodynamics (LQCD)
which places the quantum fields of the quarks and gluons on a discretized grid of points to represent space-time
Detmold and colleagues made the first-ever LQCD calculations of the rate of proton-proton fusion — the process by which two protons fuse together to form a deuteron
This process kicks off the nuclear reactions that power the sun
It’s also exceedingly difficult to study through experiments
their electric charges mean they don’t want to be near each other,” says Detmold
“It shows where this field can go,” he says of his team’s breakthrough
“It’s one of the simplest nuclear reactions
but it opens the doorway to saying we can address these directly from the Standard Model
We’re trying to build upon this work and calculate related reactions.”
Another recent project involved using LQCD to study the formation of nuclei in the universe its earliest moments
As well as looking at these processes for the actual universe
he’s performed computations that change certain parameters — the masses of quarks and how strongly they interact — in order to “predict” how the reactions of Big Bang nucleosynthesis might have happened and how much they might have affected the evolution of the universe
“These calculations can tell you how likely it is to end up producing universes like the one we see,” Detmold says

ATOM EXPLORER MIT theoretical physicist William Detmold uses supercomputers to probe the fundamental bits of matter that combine to form the nuclei of atoms
ATOM EXPLORER MIT theoretical physicist William Detmold uses supercomputers to probe the fundamental bits of matter that combine to form the nuclei of atoms
By Andrew Grant
William Detmold exposes matter at its most fundamental — with the help of some serious processing power
The MIT theoretical physicist uses supercomputers to simulate how parcels of matter far too small to be seen through a microscope bind together to form the nuclei of atoms
His research complements findings from particle physics facilities such as the Large Hadron Collider near Geneva
Detmold’s simulations could also point physicists toward undiscovered varieties of matter
Then he turned his attention to theoretical physics
at a time when physicists were relying on heavy doses of math to work through a key puzzle: understanding the makeup of atoms
High school textbooks depict the nucleus of an atom as a simple repository for protons and neutrons
But protons and neutrons are composed of even smaller particles called quarks
which are held together by force-carrying particles called gluons
A complex set of equations within the theory of quantum chromodynamics
supercomputers had finally attained enough processing power to simulate the activity of quarks and gluons within a tiny three-dimensional space over time
Physicists ran these “lattice QCD” simulations to study the structure of two-quark particles called mesons and three-quark particles such as protons
Now Detmold is leading the charge to extend the usefulness of lattice QCD to larger chunks of matter. In a study published last year in Physical Review Letters, Detmold and colleagues simulated the quark-gluon interactions for hydrogen and helium nuclei
Similar calculations could reveal properties
that are difficult to measure experimentally
Any discrepancy between the computers’ output and experimental measurements could signal the existence of new particles or forces
Detmold has also explored the fundamental structure of matter not yet seen. In a pair of studies published last year in Physical Review D, he and colleagues used lattice QCD to show how particles that don’t interact with ordinary matter could form “dark nuclei.” These mysterious nuclei could help explain dark matter
which makes up most of the universe’s mass
“I’m interested in describing stuff we know is there,” Detmold says
“but also using those same tools to look beyond.”

A rare watercolour depicting the aftermath of a climactic moment in Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book is to go on display at the author’s country home after conservation work

who were just 18 when they were commissioned to illustrate Kipling’s much-loved story
used a herd of buffalo to trigger a stampede to crush his foe
The dramatic moment was described by Kipling: “The torrent of black horns
and staring eyes whirled down the ravine like boulders in flood time … The terrible charge of the buffalo-herd

He and his brother Charles had been creating artworks since their early teens
the twins’ personal lives were challenging
and both took their own lives – Charles in 1908 and Edward in 1957
“Comparisons could be drawn between the Detmold twins and Mowgli
who in the original story of The Jungle Book was a rather troubled character trapped between two worlds,” said Hannah Miles

and the third is held at the Natural History Museum
“We’re delighted to be able to put The Return of the Buffalo Herd on display at Bateman’s
exactly 130 years after the story was published
It will provide a rare chance for fans to discover and experience the story’s darker origins as it was in Kipling’s day.”
The watercolour has undergone careful conservation by Louise Drover
“Japanese tissue was used to make small repairs and the tone was evened out through gentle swabbing and minor retouching with pure pigment watercolours and chalks,” she said
“I hope visitors to Bateman’s are as enchanted by the artwork as I was.”
The National Trust said its acquisition of The Return of the Buffalo Herd was made possible thanks to a fund set up by the late philanthropist Simon Sainsbury

Two men who groomed and abused hundreds of children at a campsite in Germany over a period of more than 20 years have been jailed by a judge who said she was “lost for words” at the severity of their crimes
Victims’ families said they hoped the attackers would spend years behind bars
youth services and politicians came under fire during the 10-week trial for their slowness to act
despite suspicions about the men expressed by children and their parents years before
the interior minister for the state of North Rhine-Westphalia where the abuse took place
has conceded that authorities have “not been on the ball – but half-asleep” on tackling child abuse
and promised to ensure the issue was put at the top of the political agenda
whose full names were not released in accordance with German law
will spend 13 and 12 years in prison respectively
followed by a period in preventive detention
a punishment reserved for the most serious of criminals because of the risk they pose to the public’s safety
The men were accused of more than 450 incidents of abuse
Their victims were aged between three and 14
Some of the children were holidaying at the camp in Lügde
close to Hamelin in northern Germany; others were visiting a girl who was being fostered by Andreas V
who was also raped by him and was in turn used to lure other children to his caravan
Some of the children were promised laptops and other gifts
and thousands of hours of footage seized by police formed a central part of the evidence against them
Despite social service visits of up to four hours a week to Andreas V
who was registered at the camp as a permanent camper
social workers failed to report anything suspicious
Investigators have said they believe that more than 1,000 children may have been victims of the men
but that because of the typical comings and goings of the campsite it had been almost impossible to contact many families
much of which took place behind closed doors to protect identities
said she could not put the horror of the crimes into words
are insufficient to describe these deeds,” she said
“Even after 10 days of hearing the evidence
I am completely bewildered.” Addressing the guilty men
she said: “You have degraded 32 children and youngsters into the objects of your sexual covetousness and destroyed 32 childhoods.” She said she did not believe the men understood the severity of their crimes
has been fuelled by a catalogue of failings by authorities
who was appointed as the federal government’s independent ombudsman for child sexual abuse in 2011
said the Lügde case had thrown a spotlight on the “shocking obliviousness and inappropriate lack of concern about the dangers of sexual violence”
Rörig has made public his concerns that the subject is not taken seriously
not least because he has frequently had to push the government to decide on whether it was going to extend his role
and due to a lack of resources and personnel
He has called for greater cooperation between youth welfare offices
Spiegel magazine recently highlighted the lack of investigators in Germany dedicated to dealing with child abuse
which became an issue of widespread national debate in 2010 after a series of scandals in both Catholic and Protestant boarding schools
out of a 40,000-strong police force there are just 104 positions dedicated to tackling child abuse
there were 2,500 investigations into child abuse in the state
the police had 557 outstanding warrants to search properties in connection with child abuse images cases that had not been carried out due to a lack of personnel
allowing suspects the opportunity to destroy evidence

ACMS Architekten, based in Wuppertal, Germany, has chosen to utilise Allplan as its BIM software for this ambitious project
With an impressive annual footfall of 200,000 visitors
the Detmold Open-Air Museum has become a popular destination
The museum not only displays historical buildings but also provides comprehensive knowledge about their cultural context
Sustainability lies at the heart of all activities in Detmold
from building relocations and on-site insights to the communication of historical building techniques and agriculture
The new exhibition and visitor centre aspires to be a flagship project for sustainable construction
It sets out to demonstrate how public buildings can promote a holistic and ecological building culture
The client and architectural firm have strived for the highest DGNB platinum rating for the CO2-neutral new building
ACMS has developed a unique museum building concept
as museums often pose energy challenges due to their functions
the entrance and exhibition building in Detmold focuses on energy conservation through a holistic and sustainable approach
By utilising renewable and recycled materials like wood
the building structure minimises energy-intensive technologies
the operation’s energy demand can be entirely met through regenerative energy sources
ACMS Architects emerged as winners in a preliminary competition
structural and design requirements while adhering to space limitations
These structures are connected by a common foyer located below the ground
accessible through a large flight of steps and an adventure path leading from the street to the entrance
The Solibri model coordination software is employed for quality assurance and management
ensuring seamless collaboration between the architectural office and specialist project partners
Allplan models aid in cost calculations during the design phase
as component-based modelling allows accurate determination of quantities and early cost estimates
All stakeholders involved in the project believe that the new Detmold Open-Air Museum building will have a significant impact and serve as a model for other public buildings

One of sixteen illustrations for the 1903 edition of Kipling's Jungle Book prepared by the brothers Maurice and Edward Detmold
Next week, a collection of English novelist Rudyard Kipling formed by the late Joan Twigg in conjunction with her husband Oliver Twigg, the proprietor of The Totteridge Rare Book Shop, comes to auction (online) at Doyle in New York
many of the items with distinguished provenance and all of which have been off the market for several decades
Among the highlights is a magnificent set of sixteen illustrations inspired by The Jungle Book and prepared by the brothers Maurice and Edward Detmold in 1903
which the auctioneer calls “one of the monuments of British book illustration.” Housed in a publisher’s green cloth portfolio
the complete suite of color plates “in excellent condition” is estimated to reach $1,500-2,500
Kipling collectors may also wish to take a look at lot 69, J.P. Morgan’s copy of an early Kipling work, Echoes, written with his sister, Alice, and printed in Lahore, Pakistan, in 1884; or at lot 70, another family production, Quartette

when SS men decided who was still fit to work and who should be killed
Three Holocaust survivors have testified about the horrors they experienced at Auschwitz, on the second day of the trial of a former SS sergeant on 170,000 counts of accessory to murder
showed no emotion as the witnesses told of crematoria chimneys belching flames
naked prisoners being taken to the gas chambers
arrived at Auschwitz aged 17 and was selected to be a slave labourer for the IG Farben company rather than sent directly to the gas chambers
“I don’t have the words to describe how it was, when you know that you could be dead in one or two hours, it made you sick, made you crazy,” Sonder said, his voice trembling. “I survived 17 selections.”
Hanning is accused of serving as an SS Unterscharführer (junior squad leader) in Auschwitz from January 1943 to June 1944, a time when hundreds of thousands of Hungarian Jews were brought to the camp in cattle cars and gassed to death.
Read moreWhen first questioned by investigators he admitted that he had served in the Auschwitz I part of the camp
but denied serving at the Auschwitz II-Birkenau section
where most of the 1.1 million victims were killed
Prosecutors argue that he is guilty of accessory to murder because he helped the death camp to function
even though there is no evidence of him committing a specific crime
Hanning has spoken only one word so far in the trial
telling the presiding judge Anke Grudda on Friday
when she asked how he was after the first day of trial
Trial sessions are limited owing to Hanning’s health
said it was highly likely that his client would make a statement during the proceedings
but he would not say when or how detailed it might be
Sonder said he looked forward to hearing what Hanning had to say
“Perhaps he will try to explain; it would be good if he did,” he said after the session
“I hope he finds the courage to say something.”

told the court that when the Nazis came for her Jewish mother in 1943 she did not have to go with her to Auschwitz
She had been in Auschwitz for two months when the SS took her and about 85 other people of mixed heritage to the women’s concentration camp Ravensbrück
“That was one of the worst days of my life when I was sent to Ravensbrück and my mother stayed in Auschwitz,” she said
She said her mother had been happy to hear that she was going to Ravensbrück
knowing that any place was better than Auschwitz
and she had the hope it would get better for me,” she said
a 94-year-old Auschwitz survivor from Berlin who was used as slave labourer to help build a factory for Siemens outside the camp
said he could not see the area with the gas chambers and crematoria from where he was kept
but everyone knew exactly what was going on there
“We saw the fire from the chimneys,” he told the court
The three are among about 40 survivors and their families who have joined the trial as co-plaintiffs
but the trial is scheduled to hear from three more when testimony resumes next Thursday

Audrey Street in Haggerston and Detmold Road in Clapton could soon become Hackney’s latest School Streets in proposals announced today
the two streets - home to Sebright Primary School
the City of London Academy Shoreditch Park and Southwold Primary School - would become cycle and pedestrian only at school opening and closing times
The Council is consulting with residents and parents at the sites
which would join five other School Streets in Hackney
and form part of its commitment to have introduced 17 of the streets by 2022
Residents can have their say on the consultations, which close on Monday 4 February, at www.hackney.gov.uk/school-streets
Within the digital design course, led by Prof. Marco Hemmerling, the students were not only asked to design a summer pavilion but also to construct and realize the design as a mock-up in scale 1:1, using digital design and fabrication tools. Against this background the digital workflow including parameters of production, construction and material became key issues of the further process.
© Dirk Schelpmeier, Marcus BrehmThe building shape is based on a minimal surface and consists of more than 2.000 beer boxes that are organized along the free form geometry. The temporary construction was designed using parametric software to control the position of the boxes in relation to the overall geometry and to analyze the structural performance.
In order to define the construction concept and the detailing of the connection several static load tests were made to understand the structural behaviour of the unusual building material, especially since the empty beer boxes were not stacked onto but freely organized next to each other. In parallel to a series of shearing and bending tests in the university’s laboratory of material research the structural concept was simulated and optimized using FEM-Software.
© Dirk Schelpmeier, Marcus BrehmFinally a simple system of slats and screws was chosen for the assembly of the pavilion that allowed for a flexible and invisible connection
Additional bracings were placed in the upper part of the boxes to generate the required stiffness of the modules
The structural load transfer was realized by concrete-lined boxes at the three base points that served as foundation for the pavilion
BOXEL was erected in only one week by the students and served as a scenic background for the end of semester party and during the international summer school (www.a-d-a-d.com) at the University in Detmold. The beer boxes which, after being ten years in use, were supplied by the local brewery and will be recycled when the pavilion is being disassembled.
© Dirk Schelpmeier, Marcus BrehmA second pavilion design that is based on moveable wooden frames
was also selected during the competition phase and will probably be realized during the next summer semester in 2011

Sascha considers functions of the business such as procurement
ensuring efficiency in order to ensure their teams operate at optimum capability
She is also currently looking after emerging markets such as Chile and India
While Zoe and Sascha are always learning and adjusting to their fast-paced industry
both sisters studied Management at UniSA which taught them fundamentals they still refer to today when assessing new markets or launching new products
Detpak in particular has long been an innovator in sustainable packaging solutions from programs such as RecycleMe™ with UniSA
and education campaigns such as Cut the Rubbish
which are important in encouraging and enabling recycling and promoting a more circular economy
Sustainability has become increasingly core to their product offering
manufacturing capabilities and day to day operations
“Assisting the industries in which we operate to move away from problematic single-use plastic items and find sustainable alternatives is something that we are excited about and proactively looking to support,” says Zoe
“We are prepared to do this across a range of product innovations
including recently introducing a range of Market Trays as a sustainable board-based alternative to plastic produce trays
we are continuing to look at how we promote sustainable packaging solutions for our customers.”
“It was great to been involved with the Group at a time when we launched the innovative Ripple-Wrap™ and RecycleMe™ cups featuring a next generation lining with UniSA which allows our cups to be recycled in existing infrastructure in Australia,” adds Sascha
“We were the first to bring waxed wraps to the Australasian market
And today we continue to support our customers in innovations
and a team of experts ensuring a new product will balance in both functionality and sustainability requirements.”
Not even a pandemic has stopped Zoe and Sascha and their Detmold teams developing ground-breaking
launching a new venture last year in Cup & Carry
They also inspiringly responded to a need for surgical face masks to protect our frontline healthcare workers – which were also tested at the University – answering the South Australian Government’s call for businesses to assist
to help combat the spread of COVID-19 across the country last year
“After embarking on this project and rapidly establishing our mask manufacturing facility in Brompton
we are now the largest manufacturer of surgical grade face masks in Australia,” says Sascha
and our local knowledge backed by our global networks
which allowed us to pivot and respond to this need.”
“We feel a great sense of pride in both looking to localise the manufacture of critical personal protective equipment and that we have been able to mobilise our resources and come to provide this level of support at such a time of need.”

“Modernism in Belgrade: Classification of Modernist Housing Buildings 1919-1980"
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering
(presented at World Multidisciplinary Civil Engineering-Architecture-Urban Planning Symposium WMCAUS 2017
although part of a larger cultural phenomenon
received hardly any international attention
since there are only a few internationally published studies about it
Modernist Architecture of the Inter-war Yugoslavia (Kingdom of Yugoslavia)
and specially Modernist Architecture of the Post-war Yugoslavia (Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia under the “reign” of Tito)
represents the most important architectural heritage of the 20th century in former Yugoslavian countries
as the capital city of both newly founded Yugoslavia(s)
political and cultural expansion after the both wars
The construction of sufficient and appropriate new housing was a major undertaking in both periods (1919-1940 and 1948-1980)
however conceived and realized with deeply diverging views
The transition from villas and modest apartment buildings
as main housing typologies in the Inter-war period
to the mass housing of the Post-war period
was not only a result of the different socio-political context of the two Yugoslavia(s)
modernization and technological development
Through the classification of Modernist housing buildings in Belgrade
this paper will investigate on relations between the transformations of the main housing typologies executed under different socio-political contexts on the one side
construction systems and materials applied on those buildings on the other side
The paper wants to shed light on the Yugoslavian Modernist Architecture in order to increase the international awareness on its architectural and heritage values
The aim is an integrated re-evaluation of the buildings
presentation of their current condition and potentials for future (re)use with a specific focus on building envelopes and construction.
