Authors: Ezhilmaran G. , Khandai Suresh Chandra , Sinha Yogesh Kumar , Thanigaiarasu S. 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
This paper presents the numerical simulation of Mach 1.5 supersonic jet with perforated tabs. The jet with straight perforation tab was compared with jets having slanted perforated tabs of different diameters. The perforation angles were kept as 0° and 10° with respect to the axis of the nozzle. The blockage areas of the tabs were 4.9 %, 4.9 % and 2.4 % for straight perforation, 10° slanted perforation (

Φ

{{{\Phi }}_{\ }}

= 1.3 mm) and 10° slanted perforation (

Φ

{{{\Phi }}_{\ }}

= 1.65 mm) respectively. The 3-D numerical simulations were carried out using the software. The mixing enhancements caused by these tabs were studied in the presence of adverse and favourable pressure gradients, corresponding to nozzle pressure ratio (NPR) of 3, 3.7 and 5. For Mach number 1.5 jet, NPR 3 corresponds to 18.92 % adverse pressure gradients and NPR 5 corresponds to 35.13 % favourable pressure gradients. The centerline Mach number of the jet with slanted perforations is found to decay at a faster rate than uncontrolled nozzle and jet with straight perforation tab. Mach number plots were obtained at both near-field and far field downstream locations. There is 25 % and 65 % reduction in jet core length were observed for the 0° and 10° perforated tabs respectively in comparison to uncontrolled jet.
Aesthetic Cognition
Authors: Zöller Günter 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The contribution examines the aesthetic aspect of cognition in Kant by exploring the central function of the power of the imagination (Einbildungskraft) in Kant’s critical epistemology, first featured in the Critique of Pure Reason (1781; 1787) and revisited in the Critique of the Power of Judgment (1790). First, the focus will be on the relationship between the power of the imagination and the two main sources of (theoretical) cognition in Kant, viz., sensibility and the understanding. Second, special attention will be devoted to the distinction between schema and symbol, as alternative products of the power of the imagination in the service of rendering discursive concepts intuitive – with schemata serving to make sensible the concepts of the understanding (Verstand) and symbols suited to provide intuitional counterparts to the concepts of reason (Vernunft).
Aesthetic Education in Confucius, Xunzi, and Kant
Authors: Helmut Wenzel Christian 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
This essay introduces ideas from Confucius, Xunzi, the Six Dynasties, and Kant about beauty, music, morality, and what we might today call “aesthetic education.” It asks how beauty and morality are related and how they ideally should be related to each other. We know that beauty and morality can drift apart, and we may wonder how aesthetic education might work best. Should the arts be a means for developing morality? Or should it be the other way around? These questions are still relevant today. But our world has changed, not only since Confucius, but also since Kant. We may ask what to make of their ideas in our present time. I argue that there are good reasons for keeping morality and aesthetics apart, somewhat in the spirit of Kant, and in opposition to the idea of “fusing” the two.
The Love of Beauty for the Good Life
Authors: Keping Wang 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
Plato’s analogy of the ladder in the Symposium involves an inquiry into the love of beauty that pertains to a spiritual phenomenology of love. It is reconsidered in this discussion from both an aesthetic and teleological perspectives, and thus construed as a process of philosophical learning and virtuous cultivation. In the final analysis, this paper argues that it is intended to direct the love of beauty along with wisdom as virtue towards the Platonic ideal of human fulfillment and true happiness for the good life qua its ultimate telos. On this account, both the value of knowledge and the cultivation of personality are emphasized for inter-connected reasons, and meanwhile a pragmatic stance is proposed on the kinds-of-life option in the light of the kinds-of-wisdom stratification.
The Rhythm of Action
Authors: Wenning Mario 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
Classical Chinese philosophy, and Daoism in particular, has emphasized the importance of rhythm for performing actions well. Drawing on this insight, the paper argues that rhythm is an essential element of nourishing life. A focus on the relationship between rhythm, action, and life becomes necessary in societies that are experiencing a crisis of temporal relationships. Modern agents are pressured to adapt to accelerating speeds that are increasingly experienced as undermining the conditions necessary for human flourishing. A critical theory of temporal relationships is committed to (1) revealing and explaining the increase of rhythmic pathologies and to (2) recovering “eurhythms” that enable exemplary action and human flourishing.
Information, Communication and Art
Authors: Xilin You 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
From Karl Marx to Martin Heidegger, the dialectical relationship between technology and art has become an ontological question of social reality. Marshall McLuhan’s theory of cool-hot media provides an analytical framework for the information age. “Cool-hot media” is McLuhan’s truly original concept. However, while McLuhan determined electronic media to embrace printing media which was regarded as a typical representative of hot media, he could not foresee that electronic media is properly speaking the latest representative of the split type of hot media. Through Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorems which underlies formalization and Embodied Cognition Theory, this article argues that there exists an ontological difference between computers and human existence and explores the position of art from the contemporary cool media perspective. This contribution is not only intended to be a philosophical critique of the philosophy of technology of the media age, but also a repositioning of contemporary art and its function from the media perspective. The technological division and abstraction represented in hot media becomes the basic premise for a holistic approach to computer science and artificial intelligence. Their rich information context leads to multiple interpretations of meaning instead of a one-dimensional definition; the everyday actions of cold media have become a type of life art in a broad sense, and manifest their social function as an art of the information age, i.e. to balance the cognitive narrative of hot media and to ensure that its communication does not suppress the audience’s individual creativity, so that they can maintain their subjectivity by tracing the source of information. Art facilitates active audience participation and so allows participants to overcome a one dimensional way of thinking and promotes imagination and creativity in liberal arts education. Following the rules of art, cold media obtains its greatest significance as the guardian of the free subjectivity of all humans, which is alien to modern technology. Cold media and hot media balance each other to create a new way of producing and living that not only discovers but also safeguards the world.
Techné, Life-world, and Art
Authors: Wang Wen-Sheng 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The notion of techné in Husserl’s phenomenology is related to his treatment of the three layers of the “teaching of craft” and the two layers of the science of “life-world.” The superior layer of both is of philosophical significance. Aristotle’s statement in ethics and metaphysics: techné is man-made, but can transit to spontaneity, and then to natural becoming, which manifests physis as the ultimate aim of his philosophical system, enlightens us to notice the following aspects in Husserl’s phenomenology. 1. Pure or formal ethics is of a high-level téchne in the philosophical sense. 2. The concept of life-world leads to transcendental phenomenology. 3. What Ideas II implies – as a technique the method of phenomenology tends to let the pure I and spiritual I as matters appear themselves by the natural attitude – could conduct us to understand the artistic aspect of Husserl’s philosophical theory.
Perpetual Thriving
Authors: Xiangchen Sun 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The relevance of Heidegger’s existentialist analysis of Dasein does not consist in its exhaustive understanding of man’s existential structure but in its suspension of cultural tradition by means of phenomenological reduction in order to show an existentialist aspect of that structure, namely being-toward-death. The Chinese cultural tradition, however, discloses another existentialist feature of man, namely perpetual thriving or shengshengbuxi. We intend to separate the existential experience from the exposition of that cultural tradition in order to make an existentialist analysis of perpetual thriving and thus to demonstrate a different existential horizon: here Dasein is no longer uncanny but is at home from the beginning; family is not only a basic form of social organization but represents an existential structure that passes from generation to generation; filial piety, the principal virtue in the family, reveals the continuity characteristic of life as well as the generative mechanism of ethics in the Chinese cultural tradition. Moreover, the analysis of the continuity of life in terms of perpetual thriving also shows the existentialist generative mechanism of politics, ethics, Bildung, attitude to life, and sense of history.

Published: June 2019

Abstract
Mesoporous silica (MPS) and MPS-Fe composite was prepared via sol–gel technique and characterized by BET, FTIR, XRD, SEM and pZc. The MPS and MPS-Fe adsorption efficiencies were evaluated for a cationic dye Turquoise-blue X-GB. The MPS-Fe composite showed pore size and BET values of 9.52 nm and 309 m2/g, respectively. XRD and SEM analysis revealed the amorphous nature and uniform distribution of spherical partciles with average particle size of 50 nm of MPS-Fe composite. The points of zero (pZc) charge found to be 2.3 and 6.3 for MPS and MPS-Fe, respectively. The MPS and MPS-Fe showed promising efficiency for the adsorption of Turquoise-blue X-GB as a function of medium pH, contact time, dye initial concentration and temperature. Among, Freundlich, Langmuir, Harkins–Jura, Temkin, Doubinin–Radushkevich isotherms, the Turquoise-blue X-GB followed Langmuir isothermal model with adsorption capacities of 83.34 mg/g and 74.07 mg/g for MPS and MPS-Fe composite, respectively. Among kinetics models, pseudo second order kinetic model fitted to the dye adsorption with R2 values of 0.998 and 0.988 for MPS and MPS-Fe composite, respectively. The negative values of enthalpy (ΔH) and free energy (ΔG) revealed exothermic and spontaneous adsorption of dye at room temperature. Results revealed that MPS and MPS-Fe composite have promising potential for Turquoise-blue X-GB dye adsorption and could possibly be extended for the adsorption of dyes from textile effluents.
Diffusion Bonding of Ti6Al4V and SS 304 with Nb Interlayer

Published: June 2019

Abstract
In this investigation, solid-state indirect diffusion couples (IDCs) were prepared between stainless steel (SS) 304 and Ti6Al4V using a niobium (Nb) interlayer of 200 µm thickness from 850°C to 950°C using uniaxial compressive pressure (∼4 MPa) for 60 min under high vacuum of 10−3 Pa. Microstructural analysis along the Nb|SS-304 interfaces of IDCs processed at 875°C–950°C revealed layer-wise iron–niobium-based intermetallics like Fe2Nb and FeNb + (Nb), apart from these reaction layers IDCs processed at 925°C revealed a (Nb) reaction layer, and IDCs processed at 950°C revealed both (Nb) and γFe + σ reaction layers. IDCs processed at all processing temperatures revealed solid solution behavior along Ti6Al4V|Nb interfaces. Thermodynamic analysis showed that the diffusion mechanism at the Ti6Al4V|Nb interface is quite functionally easier than the diffusion mechanism observed at the Nb|SS-304 interface. Empirical atomic diffusivity (D) characteristics of Nb|SS-304 interface and Ti6Al4V|Nb interfaces are ∼1.957 × 10−14 m2/s and ∼9.197 × 10−14 m2/s, respectively, for the IDCs processed at 950°C. The observed maximum hardness at the Ti6Al4V|Nb interface was ∼300 HV; whereas hardness at the Nb|SS-304 interface is found to be ∼200 HV and ∼650 HV for IDCs processed at 850°C and at 875°C and above, respectively. A maximum strength of ∼372 MPa (tensile) and ∼241 MPa (shear), along with ∼4.5 % ductility, was noticed for the IDCs processed at 875°C. The presence of two reaction layers: FeNb + (Nb) and Fe2Nb at the Nb|SS-304 interfaces improved the strength properties of the IDCs. Strength properties of the IDCs processed at 950°C deteriorated because of the presence of σ phase. Using diffraction studies, hardness property, and fracture behavior, it was established that the IDCs failed because of the propagation of crack, apparently along iron–niobium-based intermetallic reaction layers at Nb|SS-304 interfaces.
Practical tips and tricks in measuring strain, strain rate and twist for the left and right ventricles
Authors: Johnson Christopher , Kuyt Katherine , Oxborough David , Stout Martin 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
Strain imaging provides an accessible, feasible and non-invasive technique to assess cardiac mechanics. Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) is the primary modality with the utility for detection of subclinical ventricular dysfunction. Investigation and adoption of this technique has increased significantly in both the research and clinical environment. It is therefore important to provide information to guide the sonographer on the production of valid and reproducible data. The focus of this review is to (1) describe cardiac physiology and mechanics relevant to strain imaging, (2) discuss the concepts of strain imaging and STE and (3) provide a practical guide for the investigation and interpretation of cardiac mechanics using STE.

Published: June 2019

Aim. Assessment of the impact of independent ultrasound screening by the emergency physician on the daily activities of the emergency department.
Methods. The effectiveness of the use of ultrasound screening by the emergency physician was assessed using computer-based simulation modeling and the subsequent implementation of the data obtained into the practical work of the emergency department. The results were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods.
Results. In the course of the study, a simulated model of emergency department was built, similar to the actually functioning department in the Pavlov First St. Petersburg State Medical University. The new professional emergency physician’s standard, requiring knowing the basics of ultrasound-based diagnosis, were implemented first in the model and then in everyday practice. Independent ultrasound screening by the emergency physician allows reducing the length of stay of patients in the emergency department and the workload on medical personnel at the same time increasing the capacity of the department which is confirmed both by computer simulation and by actual implementation in the daily activities of the department.
Conclusion. The data received are indicative of a positive impact of independent ultrasound screening on the hospital stay of patients in the department and workload on the medical staff; emergency residency program should be complemented by teaching the basics of ultrasound diagnosis.

Bu çalışmada
otizm spektrum bozukluğu (OSB) olan bireylere bağımsız yaşam becerilerinin
öğretildiği araştırmaları betimsel olarak analiz etmek ve “tek-denekli
araştırmalar niteliksel ölçütleri” açısından değerlendirmek amaçlanmıştır. Bu
amaçla belirlenen dâhil etme ölçütlerine göre ulaşılan 32 araştırma demografik
(katılımcı, ortam, öğretim düzenlemesi vb.) ve metodolojik (bağımlı ve bağımsız
değişken, araştırma modeli, etkililik, genelleme, izleme, sosyal geçerlik vb.)
özelliklerine ilişkin olarak tablo ve grafikler üzerinde analiz edilmiş ve elde
edilen sonuçlar yorumlanmıştır. Çalışmada ayrıca elde edilen araştırmalar
niteliksel ölçütler açısından değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonuçları
bağımsız yaşam becerilerinin OSB olan bireylere daha çok ergenlik ve yetişkinliğe
geçiş döneminde öğretildiğini, son yıllarda çalışmaların büyük çoğunluğunda bu
becerileri öğretmek üzere teknoloji temelli uygulamalarının kullanıldığını,
çalışmaların çoğunlukla bire-bir öğretim düzenlemesiyle gerçekleştirildiğini ve
öğretilen bağımsız yaşam becerilerinin türleri arasında belirgin bir fark
olmadığını göstermiştir. Niteliksel ölçütlere ilişkin sonuçlar ise ulaşılan
çalışmaların %25’inin kabul edilebilirlik ölçütünü karşıladığını göstermiştir.
Buna göre OSB olan bireylere bağımsız yaşam becerilerinin öğretildiği
araştırmaların kalitelerinin son yıllarda arttığını söylemek mümkündür.
Manifestations de l’esprit féminin dans les devis de L’Heptaméron de Marguerite de Navarre
Authors: Kéfi Khaoula 
Published: June 2019

Nous avons focalisé dans cet article sur le rôle des devisantes dans l’Heptaméron en démontrant la touche personnelle qu’elles apportent à la conversation. Cette touche se manifeste à travers la mise en exergue de la sensibilité et du savoir-faire du personnage féminin. Cette analyse débouche sur l’emploi de l’ironie, des sous-entendus et des « implicitations conversationnelles » dans les interactions verbales. Enfin, nous nous sommes intéressée au rôle de l’intellectuelle qu’assument les devisantes dans les débats. Ce rôle atteste l’aptitude du personnage féminin et de l’auteur à élever la conversation du bavardage précieux au rang du dialogue mondain et savant qui anticipe le succès des Salons.
Marguerite Duras ou le mélange des genres
Authors: Kocaman Şengül 
Published: June 2019

« J’ai écrit une pièce de théâtre sans le savoir. » Ainsi s’exprimait Marguerite Duras à propos du Square, sa première pièce de théâtre, adaptée sur commande d’après le roman éponyme. On sait que Duras a souvent recyclé ses textes, que l’on a retrouvés sous la forme de nouvelles, de récits, de romans, de pièces de théâtre, de films, pour ne citer que La Musica ou India Song. Duras a même écrit des chansons. C’est ainsi qu’on s’étonne à peine qu’une artiste aussi versatile ait dû, au cours d’une interview, se reprendre après un lapsus : « Les Eaux et forêts c’est un film! Pardon, c’est une pièce de théâtre! » En cette année 2014, qui marque le centenaire de sa naissance, et alors que tant d’artistes adulés de leur vivant sombrent dans l’anonymat sitôt morts, nous avons voulu savoir ce qu’il restait de Marguerite Duras dans la mémoire des Français près de vingt ans après sa mort.
Le Vide, pays de frontière de Roland Barthes
Authors: Paillé Willy 
Published: June 2019

Dans sa recherche d’une langue qui accueille l’autre, ou l’ailleurs, le Vide est pour Roland Barthes une notion fondatrice et limite. Si, pour des raisons culturelles, il la tire essentiellement du Japon, et originellement de la Grèce, un tour d’horizon dans son œuvre montre qu’elle relève en fait, structurellement — géographiquement et littérairement, via la géométrie et le goût du fragment —, d’un paysage en forme d’Archipel, d’un voyage sans attache fixe (apparemment). C’est cette Dérive d’île en île, de fragment en fragment — la délimitation précise donnant, comme l’insularité dont parle Régis Debray dans son Éloge des frontières, « un fond d’homogénéité » —, qui fait de la Frontière, en contrepoint, un thème plus important qu’il ne semble être dans l’œuvre de Barthes. Peut-être négativement, sous l’espèce du sans-frontière? Non. Bien au contraire, car le Vide apparaît comme une force permettant de « soutenir la cause décriée des lisières et des confins », pour reprendre Debray. De sorte que s’il y a une poétique du Vide dans l’œuvre de Barthes, il y a aussi une poétique de la Frontière et que, pour amorcer une première, et rapide, description de cette poétique réversible, nous avons cru bon de nous porter nous-mêmes à la limite de la notion de Vide — donc au plus près du thème de la Frontière — en inscrivant la démarche de notre étude dans les pas d’un petit texte de Barthes consacré à la notion de Ma dans l’architecture japonaise. Il est donc ici question du Vide — de la Frontière — comme pays (de l’écriture), comme histoire (de ma vie), comme expérience (de la mort), comme concept (de Vita Nova), comme sensibilité (la Nuance), comme avenir (du roman — ou de la lecture) et comme crainte et nostalgie.
<i>Paysage fer</i> à la frontière
Authors: David Anne-Marie 
Published: June 2019

La réflexion veut articuler, au moyen du texte Paysage fer de François Bon, les notions de frontière et de paysage. On verra que toutes deux séparent et rapprochent simultanément un ici et un ailleurs, un sujet et un objet, tout en étant fortement informées par la culture. Cette forme de dialectique esthétique est à la base de ce que Michel Collot appelle la « pensée paysage », dont je postulerai qu’elle structure Paysage fer à tous les niveaux de sa construction : elle est repérable à la fois dans ce qui est décrit, dans sa mise en forme et dans la vision historique qui en est proposée.
Le roman d’aventures homoérotique
Authors: Szczur Przemyslaw 
Published: June 2019

À partir de l’analyse de quatre textes — Les Loukoums d’Yves Navarre (1973), Tricks de Renaud Camus (1979), Dans ma chambre de Guillaume Dustan (1996) et Pas un jour d’Anne F. Garréta (2002) —, l’article se propose de définir une nouvelle catégorie générique : le roman d’aventures homoérotique. En prenant le contre-pied de la thèse de l’a-généricité de la littérature contemporaine et en s’inspirant des réflexions de Jacques Derrida et de Gérard Genette selon lesquels tout genre est un croisement de plusieurs autres genres, l’auteur décrit le roman d’aventures homoérotique à partir des genres dont ce dernier participe : roman d’aventures, roman érotique, roman autothématique et autonarration. Il essaie également de cerner la spécificité du nouveau genre et d’identifier les traits structurels et thématiques qui le différencient des genres qu’il intègre dans son périmètre tout en les transformant. Une partie importante de l’article est aussi consacrée à la restitution du contexte historique d’apparition du roman d’aventures homoérotique et des façons dont ce contexte se manifeste au sein même des textes analysés. Le principal contexte convoqué est celui de la « révolution sexuelle » et de ses conséquences, dans le domaine tant social (transformation des formes du militantisme homosexuel) que littéraire (essor des « écritures intimes »). La conclusion met l’accent sur la nécessité d’éprouver la catégorie générique proposée par l’examen d’œuvres provenant d’autres domaines littéraires nationaux et linguistiques.
