Industrial and Engineering Cultural Objects Conservation -the view from down under!: 2012

Below is a bibliography made by pasting one of my “collections” into a word document from Zotero stand alone on a Mac.

Having done this I now realise how quickly we could do them and annotate them.

In terms of volume of production, aluminium is the world’s leading nonferrous metal. Because of its lightness and unique physical and chemical properties, its suitability for the construction of aircraft was recognised early this century. With the development of aluminium and its alloys as a construction material, the need arose for stable and resistant surface finishes. Surface finishing techniques developed rapidly in both Europe and the US. Today, several important classes of finishes are used. The Australian War Memorial (AWM) has an extensive collection of aluminium aircraft, which illustrate the development of aluminium alloys as structural materials and the associated coating technologies, especially oxide conversion coatings. In museums, it has been observed that these finishes have, to a large extent, been ignored, to the detriment of objects, their history, and conservation in general. These coatings can offer important historical and technical information. As intrinsic parts of the object, every effort should be made to devise conservation strategies to retain them. Further, it is only through an understanding of the construction of an object and its deterioration that appropriate treatments can be developed. Methods of categorisation and analysis developed and used at the AWM are discussed, along with the reproduction of various coatings from the original formulations, conservation strategies, and a discussion of the relevance of surface coatings studies to the museum.

The ethics and practice of conservation of nonworking objects, including ethnographic and paper artefacts, are as well defined as we can expect. The application of standard conservation thinking to objects that work or have the potential to work is fraught with problems. Most working objects have their own tradition of maintenance and repair; however, if these are applied to objects in museums, problems can occur. This article examines some of the problems in conserving working objects and promotes debate in this growing area of conservation. Author Abstract Therese Mulford

The search for innovative, smart and performing cleaning agents is one of the main issues of modern conservation science. Nanosciences do not only provide solutions to this scientific field in terms of new materials but also change radically the approach to problems and challenges. In this feature article we review the most innovative nano structured systems developed in the last decade for the cleaning of artworks together with some noteworthy case studies. Micelles, micro emulsions, thickened complex fluids, and responsive gels that constitute the new “cleaning palette” for modern conservators are here presented and critically analysed. The development of these smart nano structured systems requires the comprehension of their behaviour and interactions with other materials down to the nanoscale. In the last section of this manuscript we report on the most recent results from a study about the mechanism of polymer removal from porous artefacts using nano fluids, such as micelles or micro emulsions. The rules of classical detergency do not fully address the polymer removal mechanism and a schematic model of the process is proposed.

In 1984 the Australian War Memorial, Royal Australian Air Force, and Royal Australian Navy recovered a Japanese Army Air Force Nakajima Ki-43 II “Oscar” fighter aircraft from Papua New Guinea. The aircraft had crashed at the end of an airfield and had been sitting in swampy ground since 1944, and it had subsequently corroded and suffered extensive deterioration. In 1996 electrolytic treatment for corroded composite metal artifacts had developed to the stage where it was feasible to electrochemically treat “Oscar” without needing to break down the aircraft into small separate components. An aboveground swimming pool was erected and filled with a solution of citric acid, sodium hydroxide, and water. An electrolytic cell was formed by using expanded stainless steel mesh as anodes and making the aircraft the cathode. An applied potential of approximately 1.15 volts, (with respect to a mercury sulfate electrode) was administered for one month. Electrolysis was followed by a further polarization in fresh water for one week to remove the chemicals. Upon removal from the pool, the aircraft was cosmetically treated to remove flash rust and finally coated with wax. During the treatment, samples were taken from the pool to monitor pH and concentrations of dissolved chloride, iron, copper, and aluminum. Author Abstract ICCROM Maria Corsino

Examines the ongoing debate in Sweden on how to preserve material industrial heritage. He mentions an experiment, carried out by the Forsvik Museum, on the conservation of the heritage of metal industries. He takes the view that if human labor and human know-how is not conserved or reenacted, buildings and machinery cannot teach us anything beyond their material appearance and size. Research and pedagogy are needed in order to ensure the dissemination of this know-how. It constitutes an intangible heritage of gestures and practices that were passed on from one worker to another and from one generation to the next. The author shows how workshops on mechanics are being used for this purpose. ICCROM Letícia Leitão

0000

Building of the demonstration mine at the German Mining Museum was begun in the 1930s. It has an overall circular track length of about 2.5 km and is located about 20 m below the museum. With its special ambiance, the mine is one of the greatest attractions of the museum. Many objects assembled there during a continual expansion process are rare museum objects now. Thus they lost their demonstration status and changed to become parts of the museum collection. Unfortunately, environmental conditions in the mine are quite corrosive, with a high degree of humidity and water condensation on object surfaces for considerable times. Up to now the metal equipment was treated in a conventional way: paint stripping and new coating. Currently there is an attempt to change to techniques that are more oriented to a conservation philosophy. Research has been done within the EC Project CONSIST (Comparison of conservation materials and strategies for sustainable exploitation of immovable industrial cultural heritage made of iron and steel). Different transparent coatings (new ORMOCER materials and promising commercial products) have been tested in the lab but also in the mine. Additionally, a study was initiated to look for a dehumidification air-conditioning system for the mine. First results demonstrate that a certain dehumidification is necessary to enable application of transparent coatings.

Multiple and often mutually exclusive points of view develop around collections and their uses as social resources. In this context, conservators require a decision-making framework for care and maintenance of functional objects. In this article, the authors explain some of the ethical and practical considerations that have led the National Museum of Australia (NMA) to adopt maintenance programs as the best strategy for the conservation of technological heritage collections. The deterioration caused by passive storage is outlined, and the lack of deterioration caused by systematic maintenance programs is enunciated. The idea of imbedding a constant monitoring, improvement, and feedback plan into the program is explained. An object in the collection of the NMA is examined after a decade on display under this regime. The authors conclude that the ability to function is one of the significant attributes of an object that should be conserved wherever practically possible. Author Abstract

0008

The s.v. Cutty Sark is the last surviving example of an extreme clipper built for the profitable China tea trade. Although expected to be in service for 30 years, the ship has survived to the present day with approximately 80% of the original structure remaining. However, the ship is now showing signs of deterioration, particularly chloride-sponsored corrosion of the bolts used to secure the iron frame. As the s.v. Cutty Sark is one of three remaining vessels of composite construction, its preservation is essential for UK and world maritime heritage. This study describes an evaluation of the possibility of using an electrochemical method to remove the aggressive chloride ions from the wood/metal matrix structures on the ship. The presence of these species is a major problem associated with the conservation of maritime artifacts, and although studies have proven the usefulness of this technique for the conservation of large metal structures, e.g., the World War I gunboat M33, its effects on chloride ion-contaminated wood/metal composites had not been evaluated. The results from this work showed that by careful selection of the electrochemical and microbiological control parameters, it is possible to successfully electrolyze wood and iron assemblies without degradation of either the wood or the iron. A subsequent pilot study in the aft peak area of the ship further confirmed the feasibility of using electrolysis to remove chloride ions from the wood/iron matrix. Author Abstract Thomas Shreves

The utilization of Markov decision processes as a sequential decision algorithm in the management actions of infrastructure (inspection, maintenance and repair) is discussed. The realistic issue of partial information from inspection is described, and the classic approach of partially observable Markov decision processes is then introduced. The use of this approach to determine optimal inspection strategies is described, as well as the role of deterioration and maintenance for steel structures. Discrete structural shapes and maintenance actions provide a tractable approach. In-service inspection incorporates Bayesian updating and leads to optimal operation and initial design. Finally, the concept of management policy is described with strategy vectors.

Accelerated atmospheric corrosion of aircraft parts made of aluminum alloys, taken from underwater wreckage, is mainly due to the presence of chloride ions within the materials. An imposed potential cathodic polarization treatment is proposed to extract these ions rapidly. The corrosion phenomena occurring while the treatment is taking place (pit and cathode corrosion) are studied and experimental conditions are optimized to prevent their occurrence and increase the efficiency of the dechloridization. The procedures adopted vary according to the type of aircraft material considered. Author Abstract Michele Buchholz

Treatment to stabilize aluminum alloys deriving from submerged aeronautic remains by cathodic polarization in sodium citrate solution extends to the associated composite systems comprising iron alloys. Due to galvanic corrosion, the steel is covered with a thin layer of corrosion which must be eliminated without damaging the aluminum alloys in contact with it. It is therefore proposed to add to the usual treatment by chemical and electrolytic methods a new corrosion removal step for the ferrous parts, using a corrosion-inhibiting solution for aluminum alloys. The conditions for treatment--solution concentration, cathodic potential applied, the need for good agitation--are described in the case of a BMW 801 D2 engine from a Focke-Wulf 190 plane which was submerged for 45 years in the river Le Loiret.

United Kingdom: International Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works, 2006. pp. 76–81. ISBN 0-9548169-1-9.

The historic Wustermark, Germany, diesel power station is a unique industrial monument and part of a marshaling yard dating back to 1909 that is still in existence today. A fully preserved diesel engine connected to a generator and electrical switch gear mounted on marble panels form the heart of a well-documented and traceable early power supply. A comparison of site documentation with technology history sources proved the integrity of the ensemble. Industrial archaeology facilitated tracing the history of the site and changes to it. Scientific research proved that the oil-based coatings are original and provided a solution for dealing with their degradation. Oral history supplied evidence about maintenance by former employees, still carried out some 25 years after the historical power supply had been shut down. Research was carried out in order to establish a comprehensive, convincing conservation plan and techniques for preserving the monument in its context. Author Abstract

The state of a cutting tool is an important factor in any metal cutting process as additional costs in terms of scrapped components, machine tool breakage and unscheduled downtime result from worn tool usage. Several methods to develop monitoring devices for observing the wear levels on the cutting tool on-line while engaged in cutting have been attempted. This paper presents a review of some of the methods that have been employed in tool condition monitoring. Particular attention is paid to the manner in which sensor signals from the cutting process have been harnessed and used in the development of tool condition monitoring systems (TCMSs).

Among other things, Article 5 of the Second Protocol provides for inventories to be drawn up as a precautionary cultural property protection measure. In 1988 and 1995, Switzerland published an “Inventory of Cultural Property of National and Regional Importance,” listing an extensive range of cultural objects. This inventory is currently being revised; its updated version should appear in 2005. The aim is to set up a new list of cultural property accounting for the heritage only recognized in recent years, such as industrial and transport-related constructions and 20th-century architecture, and to clearly define and systematically apply criteria allowing for the inclusion of an object in such an inventory. To be fully reliable, these inventories must be based on well-defined criteria. Classifying a piece of cultural property is not an end in itself. It serves to determine the timeframe within which measures to protect the object in question should be taken and the importance of the work involved. Author Abstract ICCROM Marc Giudicelli

HALLAM, D., THURROWGOOD, D., OTIENO-ALEGO, V. and CREAGH, D. An EIS method for assessing thin oil films used in museums. In: Metal 04: proceedings of the International Conference on Metals Conservation = actes de la conférence internationale sur la conservation des métaux, Canberra, Australia, 4-8 October 2004. Australia: National Museum of Australia, 2004. pp. 388–399. ISBN 1-876944-33-1.

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a well established technique for evaluating the corrosion preventive properties of protective coatings. National Museum of Australia (NMA) staff has used this technique in the past to evaluate and rank the corrosion performance of a number of commercial waxy coatings in routine conservation use. This testing procedure is relatively simple and gives quantitative snapshot data about the performance of protective coatings, allowing them to be ranked objectively. The EIS test cell presently available is suitable for testing relatively hard, thick coatings. It cannot be used in the investigation of thin, delicate, and easy-to-break films such as those formed by engine oil. The objective of this investigation was to fabricate an electrode suitable for testing thin oily films using conventional EIS test cells. An EIS method was desired that could be used for rapidly testing commercial engine oils and ranking their performance. Such a test protocol is particularly crucial to NMA staff, who aim to identify the best engine oils for use in their functional collection of technological objects and for developing a “just noticeable wear” criteria for use in museums.

The use of electroanalytical techniques to redefine the conditions appropriate for the electrolytic conservation treatment of aluminum exposed to saline environments is discussed. Corrosion rates of the aluminum alloy in various saline, citrate, and inhibitor solutions are examined by Tafel, polarization resistance, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements. The experimental stability domain for the aluminum is mapped in citrate using potentiodynamic curves. The experimental Pourbaix diagram is compared to those proposed by Christian Degrigny and found to be quite different. A new inhibitor system for the treatment of composite aluminum ferrous items is proposed. Degrigny’s proposed pH range for treatment is discussed and modified for the alloys treated. The use of DC corrosion measurement techniques are supplemented with some AC impedance measurements at rest and with applied potentials. The results are discussed. Author Abstract

This report is the result of a research project undertaken as part of student work experience at the Australian War Memorial during January-February 1990. The project aimed at preventing corrosion of the substantial collection of relics with aluminum-based components. The project applied various inhibitors to corroded aluminum samples and exposed them to corrosive conditions. The effectiveness of the inhibitors was measured by noting the weight changes of the samples over a two-week period.

A variety of petroleum-based waxy coatings have been used extensively by conservators for the preservation of objects of cultural heritage significance. These coatings must be able to be applied and removed without damaging surfaces and must be robust enough to withstand museum use. The coating life and method of failure should be predictable. Commercially available waxy coatings and oil films were compared to the standard BSq 195 hot melt microcrystalline wax coating in a series of ASTM B117[8] salt spray tests and ranked using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The mode of coating failure was assessed. This report also reviews the conservators’ experience with application of petrochemical coatings on ferrous metals and their use in museum environments. Application of coatings to the conservation of functional objects is reported using two operational examples from the National Museum of Australia’s collection. Author Abstract

Working exhibits form a major element of museum and private collections. During its working life, a machine was subject to regimes of maintenance, repair, alteration, or adaptation to meet commercial needs. Once discarded as obsolete, dangerous, or uneconomic to operate or repair, it was usually scrapped. Many have been restored several times, been converted into forms which the original manufacturer would not recognize, or undergone major repairs or alterations to satisfy new safety and other legislation. Should historic machinery continue to be operated? Should we de-restore a conversion, or is it part of the history of the artifact? How can we reconcile safety with originality? Will the techniques and materials for maintenance and operation be available in the future? Is everything to be considered consumable, with the conservator merely extending the working life of a machine? Examples of past and current practice illustrate answers and mistakes which have been proposed for working exhibits. These include the proposal of a grading system to identify key exhibits; improved training at all levels; the establishment of codes of practice; and the construction of replicas and demonstration equipment to protect original material.

Discusses the use of 3-D laser scanning as a means to document historic buildings, reviewing the development of the scanner technology. Originally used primarily in an engineering environment, the 3-D laser scanner was used to produce as-built drawings of industrial facilities to a high degree of accuracy. The scanner produces point clouds, or large numbers of points in space, which define the object being scanned. These are processed and imported into CAD software to produce drawings. Until recently, computer hardware and software for this purpose was prohibitively expensive for the heritage field. The authors consider the suitability of the technology for heritage application, presenting three case studies to illustrate its utility. The first case study is the Continental Grain Company facility in Brownsville, Texas. Built in 1891, it played an important role in the local agricultural community. The project involved documenting the facility and producing drawings to the standard of the Historic American Building Survey, Historic American Engineering Record, and the Historic American Landscape Survey (HABS/HAER/HALS). The second example is the documentation of the Bluff Dale Bridge in Bluff Dale, Texas, built in 1891, a 140-foot span cable-stayed suspension bridge. The third case involved producing 3-D models and architectural drawings of three roadside parks and objects at eight other parks for the Historic Roadside Parks Initiative, which was dedicated to documenting characteristic roadside parks from the 1930s and 1940s. The authors conclude that 3-D laser scanning has proven to be an important and necessary tool for preservation documentation. This is qualified by the observation that turning raw scanner data into drawings is the most difficult aspect of the process, but they note that the strong commercial demand for the development of the technology will continue to benefit the heritage sector.

A simple washing procedure has been developed for stabilization of corroding aluminum-copper alloys. The use of an ammonia-ammonium sulfate buffer at pH 9.6 in aerated deionized water effectively removes cemented copper metal and copper corrosion products from the surface of the object while also removing aggressive chloride ions. This treatment has been used to stabilize a Duralumin sea-plane float which was actively corroding after 46 years’ exposure to a marine environment.

Since the 19th century, polymers have slowly been introduced into horology, and almost all parts of timepieces have used these new materials since the 1960s. Integration of plastic means that conservators face new problems and raises issues about the choices to be made before any intervention and about the intervention methods themselves. The University of Applied Sciences of Western Switzerland, located in the area known as “Watch Valley,” has necessarily developed an interest in timepiece heritage and preservation. The university is currently engaged in a research project to understand more clearly the impact of plastic integration in the field of horology and to develop techniques of polymer conservation. This study presents some results of the multidisciplinary project involving conservators, historians, ethnologists, and chemists. The research is based on historical and ethnographic inquiries conducted in the Jura region industries and on the study of objects selected from the collections of the Musée international d’horlogerie (MIH) of La Chaux-de-Fonds. Results show how the introduction of plastic, a bottom-of-the-range material, brings a complete change in the industrial organization, socioeconomic context, and representations of watches and plastics. The technical section includes identification and conservation of plastics contained in the selected artifacts. Author Abstract

0000

Interest in, and support for, heritage railways remains extraordinarily strong in the UK. There are over 100 heritage lines, railway museums, and steam centers in Britain and Ireland, and in 2004 over 12 million passenger journeys were made on steam trains. The problems and issues needing to be addressed are broadly similar across Europe and around the world. This article focuses on three main areas: the cultural aspect of railway preservation, including the adoption of the Riga Charter; safety and regulation; and insurance and inspection. If rail heritage organizations are to persuade governments and fiscal authorities that they should receive favorable tax treatment, it is important that they demonstrate that their activities fulfill a public role benefiting the community. They need to show that they do indeed preserve industrial heritage, but equally importantly, the traditional skills that go with it. The issue of safety has tended to overwhelm paternalistic national regulators. However, heritage railways do not require safeguards identical to those appropriate for modern high-speed operators. The third issue is the ever tightening insurance market and the steps being taken in Europe to mitigate the effects of large payouts following terrorist atrocities and other major incidents.

Classical conservation theories (from Ruskin to Brandi) are characterized by their close adherence to Truth. These theories are currently dominant, but criticism and new alternatives are developing and gaining momentum. Three crucial notions in classical theories have been criticized: reversibility, universality, and objectivity (including objective determination of damage and the notion of scientific conservation). As a result of these criticisms, emerging contemporary theory of conservation has substituted the notion of function, use, or value of the conservation object for that of Truth. A representative list of sources is discussed. Author Abstract

Contemporary theory of conservation. United Kingdom: Elsevier Butterworth-Heinemann, 2005. ISBN 0-7506-6224-7.

Reviews, summarizes, and elaborates on the most contemporary manifestations of conservation theory. While variable and sometimes conflicting in opinion, classical theories had one objective in common: they sought to reveal the truth. However, since the 1980s, notions of truth and objectivity have experienced a steady decline, which has led many people to feel increasingly uncomfortable with the classical discourse of conservation. The contemporary theory addressed in this book answers those problems by introducing new concepts, such as those of communicative efficiency, sustainability, and flexibility. These new concepts are much more akin to the “common sense” approach that most conservators actually apply when making decisions regarding heritage. Thus, the author writes, contemporary theory of conservation is nothing more (and nothing less) than “a revolution of common sense.” [Editor’s note: for the Spanish-language version of this book, see AATA 38-2369.] Salvador Muñoz Viñas

Lubricant contamination analysis is one of the common and prospective methods of machine condition monitoring. Wear debris formed in rubbing is a source of valuable information on the wear mechanism and severity, while total oil contamination gives information on oil lubricity. Development of new methods and means of reliable condition monitoring of friction units remains a challenging task for rating the condition of equipment, reducing losses for idle time or failures, and saving lubricants. Despite the fact that direct reading (DR) ferrograph was proposed more than 20 years ago its main principle—accumulation and estimation of deposited particles content—underlies the basis of creation of new effective built-in devices and criteria for condition monitoring. In the presented paper, the principle of operation of the optical ferroanalyzer (OF) jointly developed by V.A. Belyi Metal-Polymer Research Institute of Belarus National Academy of Sciences and Korea Institute of Science and Technology is presented. Optical ferroanalyzer in addition to ferrograph allows us to estimate total contamination of oil, increasing reliability of tribosystem condition monitoring. The results of bench tests of the analyzer are described and example of its application for condition monitoring of engine is shown.

New behavioral and scientific directions in studying the human past, and more socially responsible objectives in museum and historic preservation work, point the way for industrial archaeologists to go beyond simply sampling industrial and engineering relics. Specifically, industrial archaeology inventories routinely approach physical objects as interesting only in themselves. This approach underestimates the potential of sites and artifacts to serve as evidence, for example, of past human behavior. With a systematic and explicitly behavioral approach to classification, however, investigators can begin exploring the dynamic spatial and historical context of industrial archaeology materials, using these materials to examine important questions about the human past.

The corrosion performance of five commercial waxy coatings for long-term protection of outdoor bronze sculptures was investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) as a function of immersion time in neutral aerated 0.1 M NaCl solution. Each translucent coating met the special requirement defined for the field of conservation, i.e., the coating treatment should be repairable and reversible even after aging and have minimal impact on the aesthetic attributes of the sculpture surface. The performance of these coatings was compared with that of conventional microcrystalline wax Besq 195 favored by conservators. Impedance spectra were fitted to an equivalent circuit using a complex nonlinear least-squares program, and the calculated pore resistance (R) was used as a numerical indicator for ranking the coatings. The results suggest that Dinitrol 4010 and Cor-Trol 450 coatings have superior corrosion protection than Besq 195, and their potential use in conservation is discussed. Additional tests are underway to quantify the performance of these promising coatings on patinated bronze surfaces exposed to a coastal industrial environment. Author Abstract

Three commercial waxes have been studied as protective coatings for sculptural bronzes. The bronzes had been artificially patinated by three different processes. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used to established the effectiveness of these wax coatings on each of the patinated surfaces. It is found that artificial patinas by themselves offer little corrosion protection to the base metal, and that some combinations of wax and patination type are significantly better than others. As well, we present preliminary data on bronze specimens which had been naturally aged in a coastal industrial environment. Author Abstract

Citric acid solution moderated with thiourea is a standard conservation treatment for chemically cleaning ferrous artifacts. The acid is washed from objects after stripping to prevent recorrosion during display and storage. Widely used inhibitors in the wash solutions have been those based on chromate and nitrite ions. However, these chemical species are highly toxic, and their use produces serious environmental hazards. This report explores the use of the disodium salt of secacic acid (1,8-octanedicarboyxlic acid) as an alternative low-toxicity, relatively inexpensive, and environmentally benign inhibitor to chromate in rinse solutions for citric acid-stripped mild steel. Gravimetric tests using corroded mild steel samples establish the disodium salt as an effective inhibitor provided a prerinse step is adopted in the wash procedure. Under these conditions, the dicarboxylate was found to have comparable corrosion protection to chromate. Realistic trials with typical metallic artifacts including composites were successful, strongly suggesting the potential use of this inhibitor for treating different metals and metal alloys. Additional tests show that the dicarboxylate treatment is compatible with subsequent surface treatments such as waxing.

Waxes used in the preservation of metallic sculptures were assessed for corrosion protection using a variety of physical and chemical methods, including x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Artificially and naturally aged wax coatings were compared to unaged samples, and variation in performance was also related to method of application. As a consequence of these studies the wax BeSq 195 was chosen to be the most effective replacement for the currently used TWA 2095. Applied in the molten state, BeSq 195 appears to provide an effective coating for bronze. This compares with Mitsui 420, in which application by buffing is recommended. Author Abstract

In: Fifth National Conference on Engineering Heritage 1990, Perth 3-5 December 1990: interpreting engineering heritage. Australia: Institution of Engineers, Australia. Western Australia Division, 1990. pp. 89–94. ISBN 0-909421-23-4.

Marine engine design and development began in Western Australia by enterprising people adapting commercial models of motorbike engines, modifying outboard motors to inboard motors and developing improvements of existing marine engines. One of Western Australia’s first pioneers was Ingvald (Tommy) Overgaad whose inboard marine engines sold under the brand name West Ho. Opening his own engineering business in 1933, his work included replacing cylinders of Evinrude Elto outboards, adapting defunct Harley Davidson motorbike engines to inboard marine engines and then manufacturing single and later twin cylinder West Ho engines. The West Ho that was restored is a twin-cylinder, two-stroke gasoline engine which develops 8 hp at 1,500 rpm. This engine was made in 1958 in the latter part of Overgaad’s career. This engine was conserved and restored to working order because it is considered an important part of Western Australian maritime engineering heritage. Another primary reason for restoration was to reduce the corrosion processes usually associated with long-term storage of engines. Hence, the chemical conservation regimes were organized to preserve the original integrity of the engine and to develop professional standards for museums. Author Abstract Ian D. MacLeod

The Cutty Sark is undergoing major conservation to slow down the deterioration of the original Victorian fabric of the ship. While the conservation work being carried out is “state of the art,” there is no evidence at present of the effectiveness of the conservation work over the next fifty years. A prognostics framework is being developed to monitor the “health” of the ship’s iron structures to help ensure a 50 year life once conservation is completed, with only minor deterioration taking place over time. This paper presents the prognostics framework being developed, which encompasses four approaches: 1-Canary and Parrot devices, 2-Physics-of-Failure (PoF) models, 3-Precursor Monitoring and Data Trend Analysis, and 4-Bayesian Networks. “Canary” and “Parrot” devices have been designed to mimic the actual mechanisms that would lead to failure of the iron structures, with canary devices failing faster to act as an indicator of forthcoming failures, while parrot devices fail at the same rate as the structure under consideration. A PoF model based on a decrease of the corrosion rate over time is used to predict the remaining life of an iron structure. Mahalanobis Distance (MD) is used as a precursor monitoring technique to obtain a single comparison metric from multiple sensor data to represent anomalies detected in the system. Bayesian Network models are then used as a fusion technique, integrating remaining life predictions from PoF models with information of possible anomalies from MD analysis to provide a new prediction of remaining life. This paper describes why, and how the four approaches are used for diagnostic and prognostics purposes, and how they are integrated into the prognostics framework.

Provides a brief history of the Transportation Museum from 1911 to the present and discusses some of the earlier conservation projects undertaken there, e.g., Japanese National Railways no. 1 locomotive and no. 1 bus. The author notes the 1958 formulation of the “Regulations Concerning the Protection of Railway Monuments,” the 1963 introduction of the railway quasi-monument system which allowed regional level monument designation, the 1991 formation of the Railway Conservation Society of Japan, all of which aided in the preservation of the Japanese railway heritage. He also discusses the problems involved in preservation--no budgetary backup, no designations since 1972, no tax privileges granted to private museums and conservation activities, loss of knowledge of manufacturing techniques, unavailable parts.

United Kingdom: Earthscan Ltd., 1998. pp. 291–296. ISBN 1-873936-82-6.

Over the last 200 years industrial development has drastically changed the face of Europe. Today, there is an increasing need to maintain the most significant industrial complexes as witness of that historical period. In consequence, an appropriate form of conservation is required for this industrial heritage made of iron and steel. However, preserving traces of daily use and handling in order to keep the original appearance excludes in most cases technical maintenance with pigmented coatings layers. A joint research project was set up in Germany to study the performance of transparent coating systems applied on partly corroded substrates. In this report the first results of the laboratory work are presented. In addition to conventional products made of pure organic materials like oils, waxes, and lacquers, new inorganic-organic hybrid materials (ORMOCER) are being tested for their suitability as an effective protection against further corrosion. Results will be used in pilot applications on selected objects. Author Abstract

SLOGGETT, Robyn. Expanding the conservation canon: assessing cross-cultural and interdisciplinary collaborations in conservation. In: Studies in conservation. 2009, Vol. 54, no. 3, pp. 170–183.

Explores some of the dilemmas that relate to the existence of collections of cultural material and efforts to preserve them. The article examines issues that arise when multiple points of view are focused on the origins, ownership, custodianship, and meaning of such material. Such an investigation is impossible without exploring the landscape in which cultural materials conservation has developed. In doing this, it is necessary to identify the boundaries of the disciplinary territory that currently frame conservation practice and to investigate the role of conservation at the edges of this terrain; the boundary knowledge of the discipline where interdisciplinary knowledge is developed and traded. This article argues that conservation has an important contribution to make along the axis of broader social and humanitarian concerns and that new disciplinary and cultural intersections are a critical part of contemporary conservation practice. It also discusses some strategies that may usefully strengthen the role of conservation beyond institutions and support collaborations for cultural replenishment and continuity. Author Abstract

Both acoustic emission (AE) and electrostatic (ES) wear monitoring are emerging as useful real-time condition monitoring techniques. These techniques are believed to be sensitive to different aspects of the physics of contact and surface degradation prior to the onset of severe wear. Thus, if both systems are used to monitor tribo-contacts, the physics of early contact degradation could be elucidated and the potential of the systems to detect precursors to severe wear could be investigated. This paper uses AE and ES charge signals generated by a bearing steel contact under dry sliding conditions to monitor the various phases of delamination wear. Tests were undertaken using an instrumented pin-on-disc (PoD) tribometer, which enabled continuous measurement of friction, surface temperature, linear wear, AE and ES signals. The AE and ES results were found to correlate with friction levels and wear rates. From the friction level, three distinct regions were identified and the wear mechanisms within each region were found (by SEM and EDS analysis) to be running-in, delamination/oxidation and oxidation.

Australian War Memorial, Canberra, Australia: Australian War Memorial, 29 November 2004. Available from: www.awm.gov.au/events/conference/bigstuff/index.asp.

The conservation of technological objects in social history museums requires a modified approach to conventional static conservation or traditional restoration projects. Objects in these museums are being preserved more for the story they embody than for the technology they represent. Leading up to the opening of the National Museum of Australia (NMA), conservation was undertaken on one of its most valued objects, the Francis Birtles Bean car. The car became internationally famous in the 1920s for the journeys it undertook, including one from London to Melbourne. The NMA takes into account an object’s function as much as its form when undertaking conservation projects. Finding a balance between an object’s preservation and the uses a museum seeks to put it to can be especially challenging when treating functional technology. This paper will discuss some of the ethical and practical approaches to conserving technology at the NMA using as a principal example the Bean conservation project. This paper is designed to be read in conjunction with the other material being presented by the NMA at this conference. It will primarily cover ethical issues of preserving story, while our other work will cover practical applications.

Developing a conservation treatment using linear dicarboxylates as corrosion inhibitors for mild steel in wash solutions following citric acid stripping. In: Metal 2001: proceedings of the international conference on metals conservation = Actes de la conférence internationale sur la conservation des métaux = Actas del congreso internacional sobre la conservacion de metales: Santiago, Chile 2-6 April 2001. Australia: Western Australian Museum, 2004. pp. 310–315. ISBN 1-920843-17-5.

Citric acid stripping is routinely used in the conservation of ferrous objects. The acid is washed from objects after stripping to prevent recorrosion during display and storage. Corrosion inhibitors such as chromates and nitrites are presently used in the wash solution to prevent or reduce recorrosion during this washing stage. Unfortunately, these chemical species pose considerable health and environmental problems, and their use is rapidly becoming restricted. Linear dicarboxylates have been proposed as environmentally benign and low toxic inhibitors for mild steel, copper, aluminum, and magnesium alloys. In this report, potentiodynamic and weight loss techniques have been used to explore the use of three a, ?-dicarboxylates (disodium salts of 1,8-octanedicarboxylic acid, 1,10-decanedicarboxylic acid, and 1,12-dodecanedicarboxylic acid) as alternative inhibitors to chromate and nitrite in rinse solutions for citric acid-stripped low-carbon steel. The results showed that dicarboxylates were effective inhibitors provided that a prerinse step was adopted in the procedure. Under these conditions, disodium salt of 1,8-octanedicarboxylic acid was found to have comparable inhibition efficiency to chromate. Nitrite solutions were observed to accelerate corrosion. This prerinse step also improved the performance of chromate solutions and was crucial to the overall performance of the dicarboxylate compounds. Author Abstract

ISBN 978-0-9830399-2-1 (color); 978-0-9830399-1-4 (b&w).

The structural integrity of a metal artifact is always of concern to conservators and curators, particularly if the object is very large and intended for permanent display outdoors. Being the first vessel preserved as a historic relic in Hong Kong, the fireboat Alexander Grantham was lifted from the sea and has been on public display since 2006. Given the unfavorable, yet uncontrollable outdoor environment, the fireboat will inevitably suffer from degradation and perhaps structural failure, which may not be easily detected or identified at an early stage through visual inspection. For the sake of her long-term preservation, the Central Conservation Section in Hong Kong has pioneered the development of an integrated structural health monitoring system to monitor the structural stability of the vessel on exhibition. This contribution discusses the conservators’ experience in devising the system and the preliminary findings obtained from the program to illustrate the merits and limitations of its application on historic vessels.

Brunel’s 1843 SS Great Britain was a technological milestone of world importance. It now rests in its original dry dock in Bristol, England. Research has established the significance of the ship, identified its inherent instability, and reviewed conservation options to support a successful 8.5 million pound Heritage Lottery Fund bid. The complex preservation project involved innovative use of desiccation to preserve the hull, along with a large-scale conservation program for the fabric of the ship and dockyard structures. The input of architects, engineers, conservators, corrosion scientists, historians, and many other specialists was managed directly by the executive director and a qualified project manager who maintained timetables and coordination. Research into the effect of relative humidity on the corrosion of chloride-infested iron provided data for use in a design that changed the dry dock into a climatically controlled envelope around the unstable hull.

Restoration and conservation: report of the Fifth Congress of the Association of Technical Museum Personnel in Berlin, 1964. Germany: Verlag Bruno Hessling, 1964.

In Berlin in 1888 the world’s first museum laboratory was established, and yet after World War II, almost nothing remained of the State Museum or of its laboratory, and the cultural capital of Germany moved to Munich. In Munich, the Doerner Institute with its laboratory and workshops was established, and the Bavarian National Bureau for Care of Monuments developed. Elsewhere in Germany, there was a vacuum, with the exception of a few conservation workshops where technicians worked in isolation, out of touch with the latest advances in science and technology. It is to the credit of the Association of Technical Museum Personnel to have understood that isolation leads to suffocation and to have established a professional collaboration, throwing wide the doors of communication even beyond national boundaries. Created in 1956, the ATMP is an association of a large number of restorers actively concerned with their professional problems (holding congresses every two years) and with publication of their results. Their periodical, Der Präparator, is in its 11th year. (At the start, this periodical was not directly linked to the ATMP.) They also issue the Bibliographie des archäologischen Konservierungstechnik. The present publication, Restaurierung ind Konservierung, is the outcome of discussions of the fifth congress of the ATMP, held in Berlin in October 1964. Although the ATMP concerned itself at first primarily with the technical problems specific to archaeological and natural history museums, it later found a partner active in the fields of painting, sculpture, and the graphic arts in the Society of German Picture Restorers. Besides Germany, France, Great Britain, the Netherlands, and Switzerland have participated in the Berlin Congress. Of 23 contributions presented there, 19 are published in Restoration and Conservation. However, the conferees have, in fact, attacked a broader range of topics than is indicated by the title. The table of contents shows that attention is directed to a broad range of materials (historic monuments, stone monuments, mural paintings, textiles, zoologic preparations, etc.), of techniques (e.g., casting with Araldite and with rubber latex, preparation of dioramas, cleaning with an abrasive powder and compressed air, ultrasonic cleaning, photogrammetry of archaeological excavations), as well as of more theoretical topics, such as when gluing is justified, the potential offered by new plastic materials, or the chemical and physical properties of textiles. Recent developments abroad, such as the new laboratory of the British Museum in London, are given more than cursory notice, and even complex problems, such as work accidents or the collaboration of the restorer with his colleagues in other disciplines, are the subjects of articles. All are well done and have either practical or theoretical interest; some are illustrated and provided with a basic bibliography. Among these is the contribution of Artur Kratz, which explores new possibilities for the extraction of salts from friable stones. The technique is simple: the surface is protected with an impermeable film in which holes are pierced at the two extremities (this is not always possible!), and water is forced through under vacuum. The same technique can serve for the consolidation of stone by use of an appropriate substance. This is an excellent publication that does credit to the ATMP. Little by little, especially in Europe, specialists of good will are joining together; their methodology is being refined, and publications and monographs are multiplying. It is fortunate that Germany is participating in the general effort, despite the barrier of the “Länder” and of a number of excessively circumscribed university researchers in the museums.
