Novel Dialogue 3.1: On Being Unmoored: Chang-rae Lee Charts Fiction with Anne Anlin Cheng (SW)
No full textSeason three of Novel Dialogue launches in partnership with Public Books and introduces some fresh new voices into the mix. John and Aarthi welcome Chris Holmes, Emily Hyde, Tara Menon, and Sarah Wasserman into the ND pod as guest hosts. And have they brought a series of scintillating conversations with them! In our series premiere, Sarah sits down with acclaimed novelist Chang-rae Lee and Anne Anlin Cheng, renowned scholar of American literature and visual culture at Princeton. The conversation goes small and goes big: from the shortest short story to the totalizing effects of capitalism. Chang-rae is no stranger to such shifting scales: his novels sweep through large stretches of time and space, but their attention to detail and meticulous prose makes for an intimate reading experience. Chang-rae's latest novel, My Year Abroad, fuels a discussion about how we can form meaningful bonds in current conditions (hint: it's often around a table) and about the specters of other, better worlds that haunt Chang-rae's fictions. He discusses his relationship to his own work and the benefits of taking an "orbital view" on his writing. Chang-rae also offers a tantalizing glimpse into his current project, a semi-autobiographical novel about Korean-American immigrants in 1970s New York. In response to a brand new signature question for the podcast this season, Chang-rae reveals the talent he wishes he could suddenly have--one that Anne already possesses
Rae and the Tradition of Scottish Political Economy
No full textThe purpose of the chapter is to investigate how far Rae is representative of the Scottish Political Economy Tradition, where tradition is understood in terms of continuity in a shared approach, allowing for theoretical differences. While Rae conforms to most features identified with the Scottish tradition, his opposition to Smith’s methodology suggests a divergence of approach which would put him outside the tradition. It is argued here that this divergence applies only to Rae’s professed methodology, not to his practice

One-boson Lee model and statistical-mechanical transformation theory
No full textThe superoperator transformation theory developed by the Brussels school is applied to a simple quantum-mechanical system : the one-boson Lee model. The existence of a diagonalising transformation for this model permits the solution of dynamical problems such as that of induced emission and the construction of explicit matrix representations for asymptotic and dressing operators of the theory.Davidson R., Rae John. One-boson Lee model and statistical-mechanical transformation theory. In: Bulletin de la Classe des sciences, tome 57, 1971. pp. 325-337

Prediction of long-term pore pressure dissipation behavior by short-term piezocone dissipation test
No full textThe coefficient of consolidation determined from piezocone dissipation test and common interpretation methods makes the predicted dissipation curve match only at 50% degree of dissipation of the measured dissipation curve. It makes it difficult to predict the long-term pore pressure dissipation behavior of in-situ soft deposits. Therefore, based on the authors' previous result [Kim YS, Lee SR, Kim YT. Application of an optimization design technique for determining the coefficient of consolidation by using piezocone test data. Computers and Geotechnics 1997;21(4): 77-93] in which an optimized coefficient of consolidation reflects well the measured dissipation trend over the input degree of dissipation range, a systematic way of predicting a more realistic pore pressure dissipation behavior at high degree of dissipation with the optimized coefficient of consolidation is proposed. It was found that, relatively over the wide range of dissipation, the optimized coefficient of consolidation is more consistent than those determined by other researchers' methods. Applied to some real examples, it is also shown that the dissipation behavior of pore water pressure at a high degree of the dissipation range can be predicted well if the coefficient of consolidation is determined using the optimization technique with the data up to around 50% dissipation. Thus, it is expected that the proposed method saves time and expenses in conducting dissipation tests in the held. (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved
Debris flow susceptibility assessment based on an empirical approach in the central region of South Korea
No full textMany debris flow spreading analyses have been conducted during recent decades to prevent damage from debris flows. An empirical approach that has been used in various studies on debris flow spreading has advantages such as simple data acquisition and good applicability for large areas. In this study, a GIS-based empirical model that was developed at the University of Lausanne (Switzerland) is used to assess the debris flow susceptibility. Study sites are classified based on the types of soil texture or geological conditions, which can indirectly consider geotechnical or rheological properties, to supplement the weaknesses of Flow-R which neglects local controlling factors. The mean travel angle for each classification is calculated from a debris flow inventory map. The debris flow susceptibility is assessed based on changes in the flow-direction algorithm, an inertial function with a 5-m DEM resolution. A simplified friction-limited model was applied to the runout distance analysis by using the appropriate travel angle for the corresponding classification with a velocity limit of 28 m/s. The most appropriate algorithm combinations that derived the highest average of efficiency and sensitivity for each classification are finally determined by applying a confusion matrix with the efficiency and the sensitivity to the results of the susceptibility assessment. The proposed schemes can be useful for debris flow susceptibility assessment in both the study area and the central region of Korea, which has similar environmental factors such as geological conditions, topography and rainfall characteristics to the study area.
