Item Open Access International Railway Signals(Mount Angel Abbey, 2015-07-26) Clearman, BrianThis monograph is the second edition of International Railway Signals. While it bears a substantial resemblance to the original study (1991) there are substantial changes. Terminology is a significant problem with railway safety devices. Signals, sign and markings were included in that first edition but a wide range of T-M forms were omitted including acoustical, radio aids and level/grade crossings. This is true both of terms and content. The summary of terms in this study contrasts with those of the railway database volume (2009): signals, signals, markers. That newer work includes a variety of terms not listed in the title and other apparatus. The diversity of railway devices is compounded by the lack of a more precise general term of railway signals that can encompass other forms. The earlier preface provided a sharp distinction between signals and signalling (the former is primary; the latter is peripheral). The latter term refers to the control and operation of signals and accompanying safety appliances and procedures (e.g., systems, block systems, interlockings, CTC, electronic configurations). While signalling is not a core issue in this study of apparatus devices producing messages and meanings it is an integral element of this study. The older edition often refers to messages but not the meaning. While message might encompass the meaning it is more accurate to speak of the physical appearance of the messages, and the semiotic meaning that becomes attached to the physical dimenson.Item Open Access Transportation Markings General Table of Contents and Index(Mount Angel Abbey, 2014) Clearman, BrianT-M General Table of Contents is a collection of the individual Table of Contents for the 15 current monographs. It is intended to be a vehicle for creating a cohesive unit of studies. A general preface is included that surveys the project with an emphasis on semiotics.Item Open Access T-M: An Integrative Systems Perspective: Communication, Information, Semiotics(Mount Angel Abbey, 2014) Clearman, BrianThis study focusses on the integrative character of T-M forms. It brings together the various modes and safety aids. Semiotics, Communication, Information provide a foundation and internal linkage. T-M indicators, messages, meanings form the larger part of the work.Item Open Access Transportation-Markings Foundations(Mount Angel Abbey, 2013) Clearman, BrianT-M Foundations provides an introduction to the field including communication, semiotics, holonomy, as well as a review of visual, acoustic, electronic processes; taxonomy, design, culture are also included.Item Open Access Transportation-Markings Database: Composite Categories Classification & Index(Mount Angel Abbey, 2012-08-12) Clearman, BrianThis study brings together categories classification and indexes of the four modal studies. A general index has been added to the 2nd ed.Item Open Access T-M General Table of Contents(Mount Angel Abbey, 2010-01-31) Clearman, BrianTable of contents is a collection of individual Table of Contents for the 15 current studies. A general preface is include This edition follows older format.Item Open Access International Marine Aids to Navigation(Mount Angel Abbey, 2010-08-08) Clearman, Brian3rd edition of this work. The study includes an introduction, historical surveys, a classification of the spectrum of aids as well as surveys of messages, meanings, subdivisions.Item Open Access T-M General Classification(Mount Angel Abbey, 2010-12-24) Clearman, BrianT-M Classification monograph draws together the full range of diverse & numerous T-M types. This task is achieved by constructing a taxonomic matrix which draws together by uniting them through modes and energy forms underlying the messages. This is the 3rd edition.Item Open Access T-M: An Integrative Systems Perspective: Communication, Information, Semiotics ctive: Communication, Information, Semitics(Mount Angel Abbey, 2011-06-13) Clearman, BrianThis study focusses on the integrative character of T-M forms. It brings together the various modes and safety aids in contrast to modal studies centered on subdivisions of safety aids. Semiotics, Communication, Information provide a foundation and internal linkage. T-M indicators, messages, meanings form the larger part of the work.Item Open Access T-M General Table of Contents(Mount Angel Abbey, 2011-08-06) Clearman, BrianT-M General Table of Contents is a collection of the individual Table of Contents for the 15 current monographs.
