Optimized Design of Instrument Test Platforms for Industrial Sites
Get PDFInstrument test platforms for industrial sites are key means to improve product quality, shorten R&D cycles, and support reliability verification. This paper systematically elaborates on the overall architecture and functional modules of such platforms, proposes an optimized design strategy based on virtual instrumentation, parameter optimization, multi-physics simulation, and remote monitoring, and discusses the implementation paths of key technologies such as fault injection, power management, and digital twin integration. Through engineering cases of power equipment and automotive ADAS test platforms, the effectiveness of the platform in improving testing accuracy, efficiency, and safety is validated. Looking ahead, test platforms will continue to evolve toward intelligence, digitalization, and modularization, becoming essential support systems for industrial intelligent testing and collaborative verification. The research presented in this paper provides a theoretical basis and practical reference for the design and implementation of test platforms under complex operating conditions
The Fragmentation and Alienation of Ethics: A Study on the Ethical Choices in Wide Sargasso Sea
Get PDFWide Sargasso Sea, a novel written by the British female writer Jean Rhys, is known as the prequel to Jane Eyre. Since its publication, the novel has been analyzed and studied by a number of scholars from various perspectives of ecologism, postcolonialism, and feminism, etc. Employing Nie Zhenzhao’s ethical literary criticism, this study explores the ethical choices in the novel, analyzing how colonialism and patriarchy cause ethical fragmentation and alienation. Focusing on ethical environment, identity, predicament, and choice, it examines how systemic oppression distorts moral reasoning and limits individual agency. As a marginalized Creole woman Antoinette faces fractured ethical identities due to racial exclusion and familial estrangement in a colonial-patriarchal environment. Her choices from compliance to defiance reflect a tragic fight against dehumanization, ending in self-loss symbolized by being renamed “Bertha” and her final arson. Rochester, embodying colonial-patriarchal hegemony, treats relationships as power transactions; his choices of exploiting Antoinette’s dowry, erasing her identity, and fabricating “madness” expose colonial ethics’ hypocrisy. And the secondary characters such as Christophine and Daniel further illustrate colonial ethical corruption. The study reveals colonialism and patriarchy alienate both colonized and colonizer, offering insights into postcolonial critiques of systemic injustice.
The Application of Machine Translation and Post-Editing in Industrial Text Translation-Taking an Excerpt from Hubei Industrial Culture and Design as an Example
Get PDFThe rapid development of computer and network technologies has led to the increasing acceptance and application of the “machine translation＋post-editing” translation model by language service providers. While the quality of machine translation has significantly improved, errors still persist in the output, indicating that human translation cannot be entirely replaced. Therefore, manual post-editing and proofreading play a crucial role in enhancing the quality of machine-translated texts. This study takes an excerpt from Hubei Industrial Culture and Design as an example, employs a case study method and chooses two machine translation tools including DocHero.ai and Google. By contrasting the machine-translated versions with manually edited English translations, the study analyzes errors in machine translation in industrial text translation and highlights the differences between machine translation and human translation. It also discusses considerations for machine translation, proposes corresponding post-editing methods for different types of machine translation errors, and summarizes English translation strategies and methods for industrial texts, aiming to provide insights for Chinese-English translation of industrial information texts
Balancing Efficiency and Depth in the Integration of Generative Artificial Intelligence into EAP Learning for Chinese Undergraduates
Get PDFThis study explores the integration of generative artificial intelligence tools into English for Academic Purposes (EAP) learning among Chinese undergraduates. The study adopts a questionnaire to investigate behavioral patterns, attitudinal structures, and perceived advantages of AI-assisted academic English learning. Findings indicate high level of AI exposure and positive perceived functionality of AI tools, especially in facilitating literature reading and writing. However, students demonstrated limited awareness of academic conventions and AI-related integrity issues, revealing an efficiency-depth paradox. Exploratory factor analysis identified three attitudinal dimensions, including perceived usefulness, self-assessed evaluation skills, and ethical apprehension. While students recognized dependence and plagiarism risks, such concerns coexisted with high reliance on AI. The findings highlight the need for targeted instructional strategies, such as offering dual literacy development, ethical training, and AI-integrated tasks in EAP courses, to balance productivity with critical skill development in AIGC-enhanced EAP contexts

Building a scientific and rational cultivation model requires efforts in optimizing project topic selection, strengthening mentorship guidance, and improving incentive mechanisms to effectively enhance graduate students' innovation awareness and practical abilities, thereby providing insights for improving the quality of higher education and fostering innovative talent
Forensic Research Progress on Neonatal Deaths and Related Medical Disputes: A Comprehensive Review
Get PDFMedical disputes arise when patients or their families disagree with healthcare providers regarding adverse outcomes or their causation during medical care, subsequently demanding compensation, accountability, and initiating administrative or legal proceedings. Heightened public awareness of rights, coupled with insufficient understanding of medical complexities among families, frequently impedes consensus between healthcare providers and patients. This dynamic contributes to a rising annual incidence of medical disputes stemming from neonatal deaths, transforming it into a significant societal concern. The neonatal period represents a critical phase of adaptation to extrauterine life, characterized by incomplete organ development, poor environmental adaptability, and weak resistance. Any factor – medical error, birth trauma, or inappropriate nursing/feeding – can readily precipitate disease or death. The acute onset, rapid progression, and unpredictable outcomes of neonatal diseases further establish Neonatology and Obstetrics as high-risk specialties for disputes. In forensic practice, neonatal asphyxia remains a predominant cause of death. However, limitations in clinical asphyxia diagnosis render related fatalities particularly challenging in forensic examination and determination. The unique anatomy and physiology of neonates (e.g., organ immaturity, low immunity) increase vulnerability to threats like infection and asphyxia, resulting in high mortality rates. This vulnerability not only fuels the increase in disputes but also presents substantial challenges for forensic identification. Global data underscores the severity of neonatal mortality: WHO reports approximately 4 million neonatal deaths annually, accounting for 43% of under-five child mortality; 75% occur within the first week of life, and 50% within the first 24 hours. Blencowe H (2010) identified the primary global causes as prematurity and complications (35%), infection (27%), and intrapartum complications (23%). China exhibits regional disparities: economically developed areas mirror developed nations (birth defects and prematurity as leading causes), while less developed regions are dominated by asphyxia and infectious diseases. Current research predominantly focuses on clinical aspects of neonatal death; systematic studies from the perspective of medical disputes remain insufficient. Investigating the changing patterns of causes of death, mortality proportions at different time points, and triggers for disputes across time is crucial for clarifying contemporary dispute characteristics and providing insights for healthcare institutions to mitigate risks
Visual Grammar and Cultural Meaning in Festive China: A Multimodal Discourse Analysis
Get PDFThis study examines how the English-language documentary series Festive China constructs and communicates cultural meaning through visual semiotic resources by focusing on the role of visual modality in shaping cultural narratives. Drawing on Systemic Functional Linguistics and visual grammar, the study adopts a multimodal discourse analysis approach to investigate twelve episodes of the series. Using ELAN 6.0, over 1,800 segments were annotated across six visual categories: process types, symbolic meaning, perspective, social distance, framing, and color. The findings reveal that Festive China places strong emphasis on material and existential processes to represent tradition as dynamic and embodied. Symbolic elements are consistently embedded within narrative structures to express values like continuity, reverence, and harmony. Variations in gaze, angle, and shot distance shape audience engagement, while compositional features such as soft framing and culturally marked color schemes enhance visual coherence and meaning. The study suggests that such visual strategies not only reinforce national identity but also serve as effective resources for multimodal pedagogy. By highlighting how visual modality can mediate cultural experience, this research contributes to the growing field of visual discourse analysis and offers pedagogical implications for the use of documentary media in language education and intercultural learning
Research on the Impact of Executive Innovation Awareness on Innovation Efficiency
Get PDFBased on panel data from A-share listed companies in Shenzhen and Shanghai from 2008 to 2023, this paper constructs an indicator of executive innovation awareness from a textual quantitative perspective and examines its impact on firm innovation efficiency. Executive innovation awareness significantly improves firm innovation efficiency. Further robustness tests and endogeneity tests maintain consistent direction and significance, supporting the main conclusion that is independent of specific metrics or sample years. In terms of mediating mechanisms, management shareholding ratio partially mediates the “executive innovation awareness → innovation efficiency” effect chain. Heterogeneity analysis shows that this positive relationship is stronger in firms with low competition and high employee density, suggesting that resource redundancy and human capital conditions can enhance the transformation from awareness to efficiency. The research conclusions provide a basis for firms to enhance executive innovation awareness from a strategic and governance perspective, optimize equity incentives, and improve organizational configuration to improve innovation efficiency
Teaching Adaptation Strategies for Chinese University English Teachers in the AI Era
Get PDFThe rapid emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies is reshaping language education worldwide, compelling teachers to adapt their pedagogy and professional identities. This article examines how Chinese university English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers are adjusting their teaching methods in response to the AI era, drawing on the author’s personal reflective teaching practice in tertiary classrooms. Recent advances in AI-assisted tools—from automated writing evaluation and intelligent feedback systems to AI-generated learning materials and conversational chatbots—offer new opportunities to enhance EFL instruction. Chinese university instructors have begun integrating these tools to provide more personalized writing feedback, facilitate flipped learning, and engage students in novel ways. The reflective findings illustrate how AI integration has improved students’ writing revision and participation, while also challenging teachers to redefine their roles and maintain the human touch in teaching. Through critical engagement with literature from 2020-2025, the article contextualizes these pedagogical shifts within broader trends in AI-mediated language education and the evolving teacher identity in the digital age. It discusses the benefits of AI (such as increased efficiency and learner autonomy) alongside concerns (such as bias, academic integrity, and teacher displacement), emphasizing the need for ongoing professional development and ethical guidance (UNESCO, 2023; Hockly, 2023; Kasneci et al., 2023). The article concludes that AI can enrich EFL teaching in Chinese higher education when used as a complementary tool, with teachers’ reflective adaptation being key to harnessing AI’s potential while safeguarding pedagogical values
A Preliminary Discussion on the Arrangement of Pottery at the Eastern Zhou Period Cemetery in Hongyingpan, Weining County, Guizhou
Get PDFIn 2004-2005, the Guizhou Provincial Museum Archaeological Group conducted a trial excavation of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty Cemetery in Hongyingpan, located in Xinjie Village, Zhongshui Town, Weining County, Guizhou Province. A total of 26 burials were unearthed during the excavation, including 11 pottery burials. It is noteworthy that the pottery in these burials was predominantly placed around the head of the tomb owner, a phenomenon that has not yet been discussed by academics. The present study focuses on the pottery unearthed in Hongyingpan Cemetery, exploring its shape, function, decorative features, and interaction with coexisting artifacts. The analysis suggests that the placement of the pottery may reflect the local funeral concept of 'taking the head as the honour' during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, emphasizing the connection to ancestor worship and agricultural rituals. The study also found that the common nipple decoration on the shoulders of the pottery may have the function of gender marking, which provides clues for inferring the gender of the tomb owner. Furthermore, the initial comparison of the pottery forms, craftsmanship and placement practices between the Hongyingpan Cemetery and the Shayuyingpan Class B Tomb in Zhaotong, Yunnan reveals notable similarities.The Jigongshan Culture and the Yinzitan Cemetery in Weining are also examined, leading to the conclusion that there were extensive cultural interactions and regional traditions in the region during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. However, it is emphasized that further archaeological evidence is required to clarify the specific relationships
