A Study of the Classical Landscape at the Wang River Villa of Wang Wei
No full textThe landscape of Wang Wei's Wang River Villa is examined by reviewing the essays and papers written about the poetical collaboration, the “Wang River Collection.” The purpose of this paper is to clarify the meaning of villa architecture in China. The author expects that this research will contribute to a mutual understanding between cultures. The villa was a Utopia for Wang. On the other hand, he was a pious Buddhist and Buddhistic concepts are reflected in the landscape. I consider the features of the classical landscape of Xie Lingyun and "Chu Ci," as written in “The Collection,” a reflection of the Buddhistic concept. When considering what the classics meant to Wang Wei, it is apparent that his villa is a representation of the classical landscape. It is not an imitation of the classical landscape, but a unique and original creation of art by Wang.departmental bulletin pape

The objectives of this thesis is to develop a metallurgical understanding of joining two dissimilar metals via transient liquid phase (TLP) bonding. TLP Joining of 1020 carbon steel and 304L stainless steel to 6061-T6 Aluminum (Al) alloy were carried out using gallium (Ga) as filler metal. Joints were fabricated using different bonding temperatures and holding times. The microstructures for each sample were examined via optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Tensile tests were performed for representative samples from each bonding system. Micro-hardness profile across the bonding region for each sample was also obtained.
Sound joints were obtained. The brittle Fe2Al5 intermetallic compound was identified in the midst of reaction layers of the 1020 steel/Ga/6061-Al joints. The sample processed at 450oC for four hours showed the highest tensile strength of 81.0 MPa. On the other hand, no brittle intermetallic compound was identified at the bonding regions of the 304L Stainless Steel/Ga/6061-Al joints, The highest tensile strength of 100.0 MPa were measured for the samples fabricated at 330oC for six hours.
It was determined that the Ga film promotes the formation of the narrow transient liquid layer that aided in the isothermal local solidification, and enhanced the inter-diffusion of the iron and aluminum atoms. The weakening of mechanical properties on 6061-Al observed from both systems is due to overaging and the embrittlement caused by excessive amount of Ga that segregated into the Al

Supporting the research process through expanded library data services
No full textPurpose – The purpose of this paper is to describe how the authors gained a better understanding of the variety of library users' data needs, and how gradually some new data services were established based on current capabilities.Design/methodology/approach – This paper uses a case study of the new data services at the John Cotton Dana Library, at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, Newark campus, to demonstrate the possible ways to extend data reference services and provide data computing services. A content analysis of services records shows how each user group falls into the multiple data services levels and subcategories.Findings – Library users can be classified into many different categories, and each of these may have different needs. Research centers might have big projects involving data gathering and applications where a librarian can mainly provide consultation; while an individual faculty member or student might need the librarians as research partners, with help for their specific problems. Computing data services can involve group training and statistical analysis assistance, where researchers need emergent help. Data librarians can take various opportunities for data management education, thereby gradually raising awareness and cultivating better research habits among researchers.Originality/value – Library data computing services can make unique contributions to faculty and students' research and study. Institution, library and users' interaction determines the levels and extent of data services and is generalized from the description and analysis of typical data service examples. Classic concept of data services levels is applied to a concrete case of data services program, and sub-categories of each data services level and user types are developed based on the authors' services record.This article is (c) Emerald Group Publishing and permission has been granted for this version to appear here at the RUcore: Rutgers University Community Repository .

Estimating seroconversion rates accounting for repeated infections by approximate Bayesian computation
No full textThis study presents a novel approach for inferring the incidence of infections by employing a quantitative model of the serum antibody response. Current methodologies often overlook the cumulative effect of an individual's infection history, making it challenging to obtain a marginal distribution for antibody concentrations. Our proposed approach leverages approximate Bayesian computation to simulate cross-sectional antibody responses and compare these to observed data, factoring in the impact of repeated infections. We then assess the empirical distribution functions of the simulated and observed antibody data utilizing Kolmogorov deviance, thereby incorporating a goodness-of-fit check. This new method not only matches the computational efficiency of preceding likelihood-based analyses but also facilitates the joint estimation of antibody noise parameters. The results affirm that the predictions generated by our within-host model closely align with the observed distributions from cross-sectional samples of a well-characterized population. Our findings mirror those of likelihood-based methodologies in scenarios of low infection pressure, such as the transmission of pertussis in Europe. However, our simulations reveal that in settings of higher infection pressure, likelihood-based approaches tend to underestimate the force of infection. Thus, our novel methodology presents significant advancements in estimating infection incidence, thereby enhancing our understanding of disease dynamics in the field of epidemiology
