Audience Response and from Film Adaptation to Reading Literature
Full text linkIn her article Audience Response and from Film Adaptation to Reading Literature Klaudia H.Y. Lee analyses results from 3000-plus interview conducted across university campuses in Hong Kong in order to investigate the roles of screen adaptations and their intertextual relationship for developing students\u27 critical textual practice. Lee combines reader-response theory (Iser and Rosenblatt) with empirical data to explore students\u27 actual encounters and experience with texts. While the data suggests an influence of screen adaptations on students\u27 choice and motivation of reading, this interest can potentially be developed into a critical awareness of the various intertextual possibilities that exist in different forms across media
Effects of oxidation treatments on the fracture toughness of leadframe/epoxy interfaces
No full textA copper-based leadframe is oxidized in two types of alkaline solutions; one forming brown oxide and the other forming black oxide, and molded with epoxy. SEM and X-ray studies on the surfaces of oxidized leadframe and fracture-toughness measurements by using sandwiched double-cantilever beam (SDCB) specimens showed that the interfacial fracture toughness is directly related to the formation of acicular CuO precipitates at the interface. However, once a continuous layer of CuO precipitates formed on the leadframe (brown oxide) or the underlying Cu2O layer (black oxide), interfacial fracture toughness saturated regardless of further oxide thickening. The size of the acicular precipitates was found to have secondary effects on the interfacial fracture toughness. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved
