项目摘要

Our dynamic team of heritage researchers and educators seek to enhance our capability for releasing knowledge from collections, activating archives for the public through digital presentation and understanding the deterioration and conservation of heritage materials. The requested suite of equipment covering analytical heritage science and digitisation of physical archaeological and historic archives supports our ambition to be a centre of excellence for heritage science in Wales. With this capability, we will study the effects of climate change on exterior historic structures, modelling current and future environments in our Climatic Simulation Laboratory and analysing material decay on site using portable FTIR analysis. We will scan and reproduce fugitive relics of the past; ancient footprints threatened by coastal erosion will come to life for the public as positive prints of feet with our 3D capability. We will return archaeological archives to the communities from which they were excavated in the form of digital and 3D-printed handling collections accessible to all and will use them to engage non-traditional audiences at festivals. We will record incredible surface detail on objects in our Visualisation Suite and on site through portable reflectance transformation imaging (RTI) revealing clues about manufacturing and use of heritage artefacts. The flexibility of this portable equipment will allow us to digitise and study previously inaccessible collections on location and internationally. Our partner cultural heritage institutions will be upskilled in the application of these techniques for their collections, creating waves of capability through the sector. And, crucially, new generations of heritage science practitioners will be trained in the latest technology for cultural heritage through our degree programmes.Using our rejuvenated capability as a springboard, we will apply for funding to expand our research portfolio and generate employment for research assistants. We will support visiting research fellows and create capacity for doctoral study in exciting new areas, leading to fundable PhD applications. Our existing PhD students will benefit from our extended capability to add value to their projects and open additional doors for data collection and impactful outcomes. Disseminating the outputs of our research in publications and the media, we will share the value of the equipment with the wider sector and the public. In publishing the research methods that we develop with our new capability, we will contribute to the continued development of the vibrant heritage science discipline.As a provider of conservation, bioarchaeology, visualisation and research services, we will offer access to the most up-to-date techniques for collections and an expanded range of in-situ services. We will produce tailored advice for collections care by logging temperature and humidity in 3 dimensions and measuring their impact on collections. With portable state-of-the-art RTI and 3D scanning, we will be capable of digitising collections in-situ, removing the risk associated with transport of fragile heritage artefacts. Our 3D printing technology will allow us to create handling collections for institutions based on scans of their artefacts. Together, this will open up collections in novel ways for museums and archives currently restricted to traditional forms of display. Importantly, we will also be fulfilling our sustainability mission to reduce our carbon footprint. Replacing outdated and power-hungry technology, such as our 20 year-old FTIR, will reduce the energy consumption of our laboratories for more sustainable research and practice. Creating digital collections will allow the public and researchers to engage with heritage without travelling, cutting the environmentally costly fuel consumption of vehicular travel. With improved capability, we will harness new technology for a more sustainable future.

我们由文物研究人员和教育工作者组成的充满活力的团队致力于提高我们从藏品中发布知识的能力，通过数字演示为公众激活档案，并了解遗产材料的变质和保护。所要求的一套设备涵盖分析遗产科学和实物考古和历史档案的数字化，支持了我们成为威尔士遗产科学卓越中心的雄心。凭借这一能力，我们将研究气候变化对外部历史建筑的影响，在我们的气候模拟实验室对当前和未来环境进行建模，并使用便携式FTIR分析工具分析现场材料的腐烂情况。我们将扫描和复制过去的逃亡遗迹；受到海岸侵蚀威胁的古代足迹将以我们的3D能力作为积极的脚印为公众呈现出来。我们将把考古档案以数码和3D打印处理收藏品的形式归还给出土的社区，供所有人使用，并将在节日期间利用它们吸引非传统观众。我们将通过便携式反射转换成像(RTI)记录我们可视化套件中和现场物体上令人难以置信的表面细节，揭示制造和使用文物的线索。这种便携式设备的灵活性将使我们能够数字化和研究以前无法在当地和国际上获得的藏品。我们的合作伙伴文化遗产机构将提高在其收藏中应用这些技术的技能，在该部门创造一波能力浪潮。最重要的是，新一代文物科学从业员将通过我们的学位课程，接受有关文化遗产的最新技术培训。我们将以恢复活力的能力为跳板，申请拨款，以扩大我们的研究组合，并为研究助理创造就业机会。我们将支持访问研究员，并在令人兴奋的新领域建立博士学习能力，从而获得可资助的博士申请。我们现有的博士生将受益于我们的扩展能力，为他们的项目增加价值，并为数据收集和有效结果打开更多大门。通过在出版物和媒体上传播我们的研究成果，我们将与更广泛的部门和公众分享设备的价值。通过发布我们利用新能力开发的研究方法，我们将为充满活力的文物科学学科的持续发展做出贡献。作为保护、生物考古、可视化和研究服务的提供者，我们将提供最新的收藏技术和更广泛的现场服务。我们将通过记录3个维度的温度和湿度，并测量它们对收藏的影响，为收藏护理提供量身定做的建议。通过便携式最先进的RTI和3D扫描，我们将能够将收藏品就地数字化，消除与运输脆弱文物相关的风险。我们的3D打印技术将允许我们基于对机构文物的扫描来为机构创建处理集合。总而言之，这将以新颖的方式为博物馆和档案馆开放藏品，目前仅限于传统的展示形式。重要的是，我们还将履行我们的可持续发展使命，减少我们的碳足迹。取代过时和耗电的技术，如我们已有20年历史的FTIR，将减少我们实验室的能源消耗，以便进行更可持续的研究和实践。创建数字收藏将允许公众和研究人员无需旅行就能参与遗产保护，从而减少车辆旅行对环境造成的高昂油耗。随着能力的提高，我们将利用新技术创造更可持续的未来。
