    A Rediscovery of the First-Generation Female Architects in Taiwan: Xiu Zelan and Wang Chiu-Hwa

    No full text
    This thesis intended to reveal the history of the first-generation female architects in Taiwan with feminist analysis, focusing on two architects from the postwar period, Xiu Zelan and Wang Chiu-Hwa. Through exploring their stories and works, the research aimed to retrieve the absent role models for female students in future generations.AR2A011Architecture, Urbanism and Building Science

    The “ga gi nang” way of life : the Chiu Chau community and its culture on South Wall Road in Kowloon City, Hong Kong

    No full text
    The Chiu Chau people are a prominent minority group in Hong Kong. They originated from a coastal region at North-East Guangdong Province, next to Fujian Province. Chiu Chau has been an administrative unit under China for over one thousand and four hundred years. It has developed and inherited its own rich local culture. They have brought Chiu Chau culture to Hong Kong and many of them live a “Chiu Chau” way of life. Kowloon City is one of the major enclaves for Chiu Chau people in Hong Kong. The author regards Kowloon City as the best place embodying the living culture of Chiu Chau people. To date, there are limited comprehensive and in-depth studies introducing the Chiu Chau community and their living culture in Hong Kong, Kowloon City in particular. Existing materials neglect certain aspects of Chiu Chau culture such as worshipping culture and the importance of Chiu Chau dialect. The research on food culture is not in-depth enough too. There are also few studies pinpointing how Chiu Chau culture is distinct from local culture. There is little attempt in analyzing Chiu Chau culture in the way of cultural mapping and from the perspective of spirit of place. Interviewees other than shop owners are uncommon and English materials are particularly rare. There is an urgent need to fill the gap. There is also rare research studying the importance of Tong Lau cluster in embodying everyday life culture. There is a need to reveal the streetscape of Kowloon City. A comprehensive and in-depth thematic study on the Chiu Chau culture on South Wall Road is needed. The scope of the dissertation is therefore to document Hong Kong’s Chiu Chau culture and the focus is to utilize a portion of South Wall Road in Kowloon City through cultural mapping. The northern stretch of South Wall Road in Kowloon City is the selected site for the cultural mapping documentation, as this area is the most representative with many varieties of Chiu Chau-related businesses and associations. The research for this dissertation will include Chiu Chau operated businesses on this street, documenting tangible elements, such as the locations, business types, facades, signboards, goods, and secondly, intangible elements relating to the businesses and the association as well as their relationships with Chiu Chau culture.published_or_final_versionConservationMasterMaster of Science in Conservatio

C. 20064.We shell consider special metals with the right number of electrons to stay inside the carbon cages of the right symmetry or 10 replace the carbon on the surface. For fullerene cages1.3cages^{1.3} with subgroup of three-fold symmetry and three or six free π\pi electrons, we consider C34(C34),C36(C36),C60(C60),C74(C74),C32(C32)C_{34}(C_{34}), C_{36}(C_{36}), C_{60}(C_{60}), C_{74}(C_{74}), C_{32}(C_{32}) etc. For cages with subgroup of "four" -fold and two-fold symmetry we consider C29+(C29),C33+(C33),C34+(C34),C28(T28),C56(Td),C76(Td)C^{+}_{29}(C_{29}), C^{+}_{33}(C_{33}), C^{+}_{34}(C_{34}), C_{28}(T_{28}), C_{56}(T_{d}), C_{76}(T_{d}) etc., some may also have four or eight free π\pi radical electrons. The metals with three electrons are Sc,Y,LaSc, Y, La, etc., with "four" electrons are Ti,Zr,Hf,ThUTi, Zr, Hf, Th U etc. These will be compared with metallocenes Cr(C6H6)2,Fe(C5H5)2Cr(C_{6}H_{6})2, Fe(C_{5}H_{5})_{2} and U(C3H3)2U(C_{3}H_{3})_{2}

    Language and Culture

    No full text
    Language pervades social life. It is a primary means by which we gain access to the contents of others\u27 minds and establish shared understanding of the reality. Meanwhile, there is an enormous amount of linguistic diversity among human populations. Depending on what counts as a language, there are 3,000 to 10,000 living languages in the world, although a quarter of the world’s languages have fewer than 1,000 speakers and half have fewer than 10,000 (Crystal, 1997). Not surprisingly, a key question in culture and psychology research concerns the role of language in cultural processes. The present chapter focuses on two issues that have received by far the greatest amount of research attention from cultural researchers. First, how does language and human cultures co-evolve? Second, what are the non-linguistic cognitive effects of using a certain language? Does speaking different languages orient individuals to see and experience the external reality differently? The scope of the present chapter does not permit a comprehensive review of all pertinent research; only a selected sample of studies will be used to illustrate the main ideas in the present chapter

    ``CRYSTAL FIELD" THEORY FOR THE RYDBERG STATES OF POLYATOMIC MOLECULES AND ORBITAL CORRELATION TO DISSOCIATED FRAGMENTS

    No full text
    Author Institution: Center for Molecular Dynamics Energy Transfer, Department of Chemistry The Catholic University of AmericaApproximate energy expression of a Rydberg electron of given orbital angular momentum L is derived showing its mLm_{L} dependence. The derivation takes into account of multipole potential field up to hexadecapole and includes mixing of different L’s by odd (dipole and octopole) potentials for systems without inversion symmetry. The proportion of different L’s will be estimated from (translational) expansion1expansion^{1} of atomic orbitals in the LCAO-MO’s. Symmetry constraints and correlation between Rydberg molecular orbitals and dissociated fragments will be discussed. 1^{1} see, for example, Y. N. Chiu, J. Math.
