Hoop and Labyrinth
No full textThrough the comparative analysis of Fedor Sologub's short story "Hoop" and Viktor Pelevin's texts "Shed no. XII" and The Helmet of Horror, the author of the article discusses the reception of motifs (myths) traditional for Romanticism and symbolism, in contemporary postmodernist fiction. The characters of both Sologub and Pelevin strive to define their "self", yet the symbolist hero attempts to close himself up in the introspection, while the postmodernist character tries to open up in the situation of total "communality". Sologub's hero finds the self-realization through the transfer between realia and realiora, while Pelevin's characters are locked in the hyperreality of simulacra where self-identification becomes impossible

Research of Effective Width of FRP U-shaped Hoop Reinforcement Properties of Concrete Beams by Shear
No full textThe paste fiber reinforced composite material (hereinafter referred to as FRP) U-shaped hoop of reinforced concrete beams interfacial debonding is an important reinforcement technology research. For the effective width of the CFRP U-shaped hoop reinforcement, it is still a lack of in-depth research, only relying on the test research huge workload, this article (ANSYS) and the numerical simulation in the whole process of the shear load release properties of finite element calculation software. According to the results of finite element analysis, the author studied the CFRP U-shaped hoop to increase the width of the shear capacity of reinforced concrete beams by the impact
Chaotic dynamics of a bead on a rotating circular hoop
No full textWe demonstrate the existence of infinitely many subharmonic solutions and the presence of chaotic dynamics in the model of a bead on a rotating circular hoop with a T-periodic, piecewise-constant angular frequency. The results are based on the monotonicity properties of the period function in the associated planar autonomous system. © 2024 The Author(s)The authors would like to express their gratitude to the referee for their invaluable suggestions, which have significantly improved the quality of this paper.

Mysterious Machinery. Unraveling the Engaged Narrative Experience of Nabokov’s Lolita (1955) and Pale Fire (1962)
No full textContains fulltext :
191453.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access)This dissertation addresses questions on the nature of reading stories, experiencing narratives and engaging with fictional worlds. It focuses on the characterization of the reader’s engaged narrative experiences of two novels by Russian-American author Vladimir Nabokov (1899-1977), Lolita (1955) and Pale Fire (1962). The main goal is to gain insight into how the language of literary fiction triggers different cognitive processes that allow readers to engage with narrative worlds and follow the mental functioning of fictional characters. This study integrates theory and method from literary studies, linguistics, computer science, communication studies, the philosophy of mind and the cognitive sciences. By allowing complementary views on the nature of language, reading, comprehension and interpretation to come together, an all embracing account of characterizing the engaged narrative experience is presented, showing the benefits of an interdisciplinary approach for studying questions of interpretation and narrative engagement, which are at the heart of literary studies.Radboud University, 22 mei 2018Promotores : Levie, S.A., Hoop, H. de166 p

Quantum hoop conjecture and a natural cutoff for vacuum energy of a scalar field
No full textAbstractWe propose here a quantum hoop conjecture which states: the de Broglie wavelength of a quantum system cannot be arbitrarily small, it must be larger than the characterized Schwarzschild radius of the quantum system. Based on this conjecture, we find an upper bound for the wave number (or the momentum) of a particle, which offers a natural cutoff for the vacuum energy of a scalar field
