Wang Shuo and the commercialisation of contemporary Chinese culture
Full text linkThis thesis examines the commercialisation of Chinese culture that has taken place over the past twenty years in mainland China. It explores the contribution of Wang Shuo, a cultural figure who straddles different fields of culture, moving from literature to the ultimate mass culture medium of television, this study plots Wang Shuo' s development from educational failure, to business failure, to fiction writer, film & TV editor, film director and cultural critic and analyst. His stories, films, TV series and articles have caused shock-waves throughout national cultural circles as he has transformed the terms of the debate from academic discourse to a validation of the role of the market in the culture field. Although Wang Shuo has not been labelled as a dissident, his approach to the culture market has had a more subversive effect on official ideology that those overt dissidents who have had to live in exile or have been imprisoned. He has utilised the language of official ideology to satirise the authorities, turning the ideology and its supporters into figures of fun. Yet his own goals have been strictly personal and economic ones. The authorities recognize the value of Wang Shuo's work in the cultural market but at the same time distrust his works and place him under strict censorship. Examining the way Wang Shuo and people surround him have succeeded in different fields of cultural achievement is a mirror to understanding the process of the transformation of contemporary Chinese culture from a socialist state-controlled culture to a market-oriented mass culture industry

Numerical analysis of melt/solid interface shape in zone melting recrystallization process
No full textTwo-dimensional pseudo-steady-state model for zone melting recrystallization has been developed in which conduction in solid and molten silicon and SiO2, convection in molten silicon and radiation are included. Numerical solutions of the model equation by finite element method include flow field in the molten zone, temperature field in the full silicon-on-insulator structure and the location of solid/liquid interface in the silicon thin film and silicon substrate. One-dimensional assumption used previously has been found to be almost valid but nonplanar melt/solid interface shape necessitates the use of higher-dimensional model. The effects of the various system parameter were investigated. As the upper lamp peak intensity was increased, maximum temperature, flow intensity and the molten zone width increased linearly. The increase of the upper lamp peak intensity flattens the interface especially in the silicon substrate. As the scanning speed was increased, the symmetry of the temperature and flow field was broken, so that the curvature of the right-hand-side interface in the molten zone of the silicon substrate increased and that of the left-hand side decreased. The emissivities of the liquid and solid silicon dependent on the capping oxide thickness influenced theta(max),psi(max) and molten zone width to have the maximum value. As the heat transfer coefficient to the ambient was increased, the curvature of the interface increased due to the increase of the heat loss on the top and bottom side
On co-authorship for author disambiguation
No full textAuthor name disambiguation deals with clustering the same-name authors into different individuals. To attack the problem, many studies have employed a variety of disambiguation features such as coauthors, titles of papers/publications, topics of articles, emails/affiliations, etc. Among these, co-authorship is the most easily accessible and influential, since inter-person acquaintances represented by co-authorship could discriminate the identities of authors more clearly than other features. This study attempts to explore the net effects of co-authorship on author clustering in bibliographic data. First, to handle the shortage of explicit coauthors listed in known citations, a web-assisted technique of acquiring implicit coauthors of the target author to be disambiguated is proposed. Then, a coauthor disambiguation hypothesis that the identity of an author can be determined by his/her coauthors is examined and confirmed through a variety of author disambiguation experiments.

Modelling of crystal growth process in heat exchanger method
No full textTransient two-dimensional model of bismuth germanium oxide (EGO) crystal growth by the heat exchanger method has been developed. The moving boundary problems for the melt/solid interface location, the temperature field in the whole calculation domain and the flow held in the melt were solved by the two mapping rule method, which enabled the simulation of the melt/solid interface, changing from hemispherical to planar shape. The maximum deflection of the interface was observed when the melt/solid interface is at the corner of crucible. The effects of the various growth parameters were studied on the interface shape, the temperature profile and the stream function using this model. As the excess heating temperature was increased, the maximum deflection of the interface decreased. The heal exchanger temperature hardly affects the maximum deflection of the melt/solid interface. The maximum deflection of the melt/solid interface is not very sensitive to the value of the thermal conductivity of the melt of EGO
