東魏北齊鮮卑漢化的幾個跡象
Authors: 胡 勝源 
Published: November 2022

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract also in English.
學界多以“鮮卑化”來概括東魏北齊的文化特質，對此本文有另一面的想法。本文認爲東魏北齊鮮卑已逐漸漢化，表現在朝廷漢語的流行、鮮卑採用漢名、基層胡漢混居、國策由“重武”轉爲“尚文”、鮮卑後裔的“文質化”等幾個面向。可知漢文化對鮮卑的影響顯然不低，國策變爲“偃武修文”甚或是北齊滅亡的原因之一。
It is common practice to define the cultural features of the Eastern Wei and Northern Qi dynasties (534-577) as “Xianbeicization” but the present study holds a different opinion. The sinicization process gradually took place among the Xianbei people in the Eastern Wei and Northern Qi. This observation is bolstered by certain facts, such as the popularization of the Han language at the imperial court of Xianbei; the adoption of Han names by Xianbei people; Han and Xianbei commoners living in the same neighborhood; the national policy laying more stress on cultural aspects than martial practice; and the civilization of decedents of Xianbei, etc. Clearly, the Han culture had a profound influence on Xianbei. To a certain extent, the change in national policy to cease military actions and promote culture and education may have caused the downfall of the Northern Qi.

本文以燈燭的文化底藴爲背景，解析《花間集》中的燈燭書寫。首先梳理並探索先秦至唐五代的燈燭發展，從火炬到蜜燭，從食器到油燈，日益繁複奇巧，不僅爲照明器物，亦是娛樂珍玩、身分表徵；而火尤其是燈燭靈魂，既是照明功能所在，更具靈幻美感及引人遐思的特質，成爲意藴深邃的象徵。以燈燭的認知背景解讀《花間》詞，詞中燈燭在場的場景得以重現，紅燭熒煌、蘭膏香暖之外，透窗而出的摇曳燈影，屏幃之中的蠟淚殘光皆常見景象；火焰則爲詞中亮點，既映照多變的情感空間、無常的人間風景，也映照自然的塵外之境，透過其象徵内藴的投射，雲雨風月的情感自有純浄境界，飄轉如風燭的生命流程也深藏内在追尋，而信仰遺落的年代則呈現光暗和解的希望。
Based on the cultural implication of candles and lamps, this article aims to analyze the writing of these objects in Huajian ji (The Collection among the Flowers). The discussion begins with a historical survey of the development of lamps and candles from the pre-Qin to the Tang and Five Dynasties times. From torches to candles, from food vessels to oil lamps, they assumed complexities, subtlety, and ingenuity. They were not only lighting tools, but also symbols of various identities. Flame, as the soul of lamps and candles, is especially fraught with spiritual beauty and fascinating characteristics, and thus carries profound, symbolic meanings. Reading the Huajian ji from the perspective of the cognitive backgrounds of lamps and candles shall help revitalize the scenes with the presence of lanterns and candles in those ci-poems. One often sees, for example, red candles shining brightly surrounded by heat and fragrance from scented wax, shadows of lanterns flickering through window screens, and burning candles with dripping wax behind folding screens. The flame is the highlight of these works. It reflects the changing emotional space and ambience, the uncertainties of the mortal world, and the realm behind the dusty world. Therefore, from the perspective of these ci poems and the symbolic meaning of candles and lamps, the relationship between light and darkness during the dark age of the Five Dynasties is not absolute nor antagonistic, but instead harbors a hope for acceptance and reconciliation.
Challenging Domestic Violence under National and International Law: Judging the innumerable Legal Violations Undermining the Protection of Women’s Constitutional Rights in Cameroon
Authors: Nguindip Nana Charles 
Published: November 2022

The notion of violence especially on the rights of women has been plagued with lots of plausible euphoria jeopardizing the initial rational and objective of the human rights placement, that of ensuring that everyone should be treated with respect and fundamental dignity. The situation has become appalling and frustrating as women encounter violations on their various status and rights, making them becoming subjects of ridicule. Willing to ensure the recognition and protection of women, Cameroon has adopted a series of international, regional and national laws aiming at ensuring a safe and secured environment for the protection of women rights and status. Regardless of the various measures set by the country, the notion of domestic violence appears to be more of a pandemic than a curable substance as issues of women protection are concerned.
This article is of the opinion that the concept of domestic violence in Cameroon is accelerating as most women are still treated as an object of commodity in the eyes of many. There is a continuous violation of women rights especially in aspects of sexual violence and discriminatory practices meted on women. This situation has become worrisome, as many question the future of women rights in Cameroon as issues of sexual violence escalate, thus affecting tremendously the prestigious status to be occupied by women in the society. In answering the above question and hypothesis, there will be the need to evaluate the domestic violence environment in Cameroon by questioning the complexities in the country on issues related to combatting domestic violence, and examining the way forward.
It is convenient and an established scourge beyond all reasonable doubt that, the singularity of sexual violence continues to be a hard nut to crack notwithstanding all the remarkable efforts put in place by the government of Cameroon in ensuring its fight. we continue to experience aspect of violations and abuses on the women right making those harmful practices meted on the women to be turned an unrealistic atmosphere. To this set, it is advisable that more efforts, mechanisms and methods should be invested by the government of Cameroon to establish a favorable climate and environment in the protection and preservation of women rights and status in the country.

Biomechanical properties of an implant designed to stabilize the coxofemoral joint following luxation show dissimilarity to the native ligament of the head of the femur in cattle
Authors: Jordan Brianna A. , Lozier Joseph W. , Lakritz Jeffery , Niehaus Andrew J. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To improve upon the toggle-pin implant construction and develop a repeatable surgical technique to achieve coxofemoral stabilization in mature cattle.

ANIMALS
9 adult bovine cadaveric coxofemoral joints, 8 bovine femurs, 2 beef calf cadavers.

PROCEDURES
Ultimate tensile strength and elongation at failure were measured for the native ligament of the head of the femur (LOHOF) harvested up to 48 hours after death, and the prosthetic prototype utilizing stainless-steel cable and prosthetic prototype utilizing nylon leader line were compared. Bovine femurs were utilized to locate the ideal and repeatable trajectory of the prosthetic ligament to exit at the origin of the LOHOF. Using fluoroscopy, thawed calf cadavers with radiopaque markers placed at sites of origin and insertion of the LOHOF were positioned to assess limb angle to maximize joint isometry resulting in the ideal placement of the LOHOF prosthesis. The study was performed between February 1, 2020, and December 1, 2021.

RESULTS
The stainless-steel prototype had a significantly higher ultimate tensile strength and significantly decreased elongation at failure when compared to the LOHOF, while the nylon-based prototype had significantly decreased tensile strength and elongation at failure compared to the LOHOF. Therefore, neither prototypes were biomechanically similar to LOHOF.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE
The stainless-steel prosthetic prototype shows promise to provide superior stabilization to the luxated coxofemoral joint.
The Flagrance of the Sacred. Notes on the Miraculous Event in Ordet by Carl Theodor Dreyer
Authors: Tonion Fabio Pezzetti 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Can the transcendence of the sacred be represented through the potential of cinema, a medium based on the ontological reproduction of the Real? Can the dimension of the completely Other, whose limits and boundaries are hardly identifiable, come to the screen and become sensitive and perceptible? This contribution, taking as references the phenomenological dimension of the sacred proper to the investigation of Father Amédée Ayfre and the more stylistic one studied by Paul Schrader, intends to propose a reflection on how the miraculous event, understood as an objective suspension of physical laws, of narrative verisimilitude, in which the procedures of representation and rendering in images are configured as a fracture with respect to the customary nature of aesthetic expression of reality, are made evident in Carl Theodor Dreyer’s Ordet.
Crisis Narrative and Affective Intermediality: Figuring Disaster in Michael Haneke’s Time of the Wolf
Authors: Pieldner Judit 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Michael Haneke’s Time of the Wolf (Le temps du loup, 2003) depicts a grim vision of the world in the aftermath of an unnamed catastrophe. Haneke turns the genre of dystopia into an experimental terrain where he can test the limits of the cinematic medium in the sense of “negating cinema in order to let reality speak for itself” (Nagib 2016, 147). An existential parable, Time of the Wolf envisions a sombre post-millenium age. It is a sharp analysis of what remains of man and society when the frame of civilization collapses. It scrutinizes the functioning mechanisms of the individual, the family and the social community in times of civilization undone. A harsh experiment towards a negative dialectics of the image, the film’s exceptionally austere cinematic language confronts the spectator with the aesthetics of the “unwatchable” (Baer et al., 2019) and “cinematic unpleasure” (Aston 2010). The paper explores the ways in which Haneke’s “intermedial realism” (Rowe 2017) also manifests in this film through photo-filmic images and painterly compositions, perceptions of stillness and motion, and cultural remnants of the past, giving way to affective sensations of intermediality.
They Live: Violence, Horror and Spectres in Four Contemporary Argentine Films
Authors: Barrenha Natalia Christofoletti 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
In the Argentine film The Headless Woman (La mujer sin cabeza, Lucrecia Martel, 2008), the protagonist Vero is haunted by the possibility of killing someone in a hit-and-run. Although hinting at the crimes committed during the last dictatorship in Argentina, The Headless Woman refers more to a mechanism of the past that is transformed and updated within contemporary society. In this essay, Martel’s film acts a starting point in the exploration of recent Argentine films that deal with spectres from the past that pervade everyday life in the present: Clementina (Jimena Monteoliva, 2017), One Sister (Una hermana, Sofía Brockenshire and Verena Kuri, 2017) and The Returned (Los que vuelven, Laura Casabé, 2019). In a decade in which we can notice a remarkable growth of the horror genre in Argentine cinema, these films embrace several codes and characters from the horror genre to approach the Argentine reality. The author discusses how these filmmakers adopt similar aesthetic features from the horror genre to invoke and address the violence that permeates Argentine society today, with special attention devoted to ghosts, a key figure to understand an ongoing history of brutalities that usually go unresolved.
Copy-Move Forgery Detection Using Superpixel Clustering Algorithm and Enhanced GWO Based AlexNet Model
Authors: Tinnathi Sreenivasu , Sudhavani G. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
In this work a model is introduced to improve forgery detection on the basis of superpixel clustering algorithm and enhanced Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) based AlexNet. After collecting the images from MICC-F600, MICC-F2000 and GRIP datasets, patch segmentation is accomplished using a superpixel clustering algorithm. Then, feature extraction is performed on the segmented images to extract deep learning features using an enhanced GWO based AlexNet model for better forgery detection. In the enhanced GWO technique, multi-objective functions are used for selecting the optimal hyper-parameters of AlexNet. Based on the obtained features, the adaptive matching algorithm is used for locating the forged regions in the tampered images. Simulation outcome showed that the proposed model is effective under the conditions: salt & pepper noise, Gaussian noise, rotation, blurring and enhancement. The enhanced GWO based AlexNet model attained maximum detection accuracy of 99.66%, 99.75%, and 98.48% on MICC-F600, MICC-F2000 and GRIP datasets.
RealEngineering: Space – Designing the Community-Applied Space Engineering Program
Authors: Alsop Olivia , El-Shebiny Raghad , Newland Franz 
Published: November 2022

Engineering education is still largely offered through traditional, content-heavy approaches, with key technical topics in individual courses separate from those that emphasize the practice of the engineering profession, resulting in fragmented student workloads. Traditional assessments do not accommodate students’ unique, diverse learning perspectives. These issues fail to recognize that engineering is above all else a community-of-practice, requiring practitioners to demonstrate innovation and resilience to address today’s complex challenges in sustainable ways.
More recent programs adopt project-based pedagogies, that engage learners in engineering problems that affect their communities. This paper proposes taking the project focus further, with a structure that allows faculty and students to collaborate on real-world engineering work that is not just done for, but also with, the community, and with sustainability built in. Such an approach establishes an overarching connection between the “work” of an engineer and what it is to be a future engineer for society.
The authors are developing a 4-year space engineering program proposal, where students from all years will collaborate to design, build, launch and operate a cubesat for, and with, the community as the full focus of their 4-year degree. A six-week pilot slice of the program took place in the summer of 2021 with 20 students from all undergraduate year groups collaborating on a community-focussed, sustainable small space-mission design activity to change power dynamics around water quality data in northern and indigenous Canadian communities. Students worked in organizational teams, with structured teambuilding and collaboration time, focussed working sessions from subject-matter-experts, microcredential learning and unstructured team time to advance their project. This culminated in a mission concept review with a team of expert, industry and community partners.
This paper presents some of the key ideas that informed the program, and the tools used to frame the learning journey in an undergraduate engineering degree. The pilot demonstrated students’ readiness to take on complex, unstructured challenges and organize themselves, and the potential to offer undergraduate learning spaces that have a very different connection to community and global issues.
Exploration in Facilitating Learning Experiences Towards Inspiring Responsible Software Engineers
Authors: Maciag Tim 
Published: November 2022

Johnson poses the question, “what does it mean to be a responsible engineer?” Characteristics could be wide-ranging. Engineers Canada helps by defining graduate attributes (GAs). All GAs are important. However, GA-9 “impact(s) of engineering on society and the environment” is one characteristic that this author proposes is fundamental. The idea of sustainable design and development has seen increasing conversation and engagement in our field in recent years. With initiatives such as the United Nations (UN) “decade of action (DoA),” engineers have the innate responsibility to help deliver the promise of positively transforming our world by 2030 and beyond. Exposing engineering learners to individual and collaborative knowledge-building experiences around the idea of sustainability, and what it means to be sustainable citizens may assist. It could be as we engineers become more knowledgeable in this realm, so too might everyday citizens in their interactions with our creations. Reflecting on Quan-Haase’s idea of technology as society, relating to the idea that society advancements are in large part intertwined with advancements in technology, software engineers may have a significant role to play. This role could include the engineering of community-based computer technologies that engage citizens in knowledge-creating activities towards the betterment and well-being of society. This work explores the following questions. Can inspiration towards becoming a responsible engineer be instilled in engineering learners in academia? Can this be accomplished by facilitating a learning experience that immerses engineering learners in researching and exploring the design and development of computer technologies in support of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)? Through resulting explorations, might both learners and everyday citizens who interact with the engineered creations be better equipped to participate in the UNs DoA, and beyond? This paper will describe a software systems engineering course at the University of Regina that facilitated a learning experience around these questions. A discussion regarding the structure of the course, its educational content, and results and feedback obtained on the learner experience will be provided. As well, ideas for continued exploration of this work will be discussed.

Authors: Gavirneni Pranav , Coggan Jenn , Chang Wayne , Rennick Christopher , Veintimilla Esteban 
Published: November 2022

This paper describes an online, asynchronous learning module on intellectual property (IP) awareness. The learning module described in this paper is the first of a planned set designed as online asynchronous learning activities to give students the foundational knowledge required to practice and develop associated skills to understand the IP landscape and identify and recognize potential new IP opportunities. The first learning module, titled “IP Literacy,” provides an introduction to IP topics including patents, trademarks, copyrights and creative commons, trade secrets, industrial design, and collaboration; and includes curated videos by experts, plus valuable additional tools and resources.
The design of the first module was based upon input from capstone course instructors, students and alumni and has undergone a process of pilot-testing and revision. Based on this feedback, the IP Literacy module was designed in the summer/fall of 2021 and was tested with a small population of undergraduate students to refine the content. A pilot offering to one discipline of students took place in the fall 2021 term, before expanding to additional groups in winter 2022. Survey feedback collected from fall 2021 and winter 2022 pilot offerings of the module was generally positive, with the majority of students agreeing that they learned something, and that the module was relevant to their discipline. This paper will summarize this development and pilot-testing process and discuss the next steps for the project.
Efficacy of Virtual Equipment Training
Authors: Boudreau Justine , Nku David , Anis Hanan 
Published: November 2022

The University of Ottawa faculty of engineering, in Ottawa Canada, is home to multiple rapid prototyping facilities as well as entrepreneurship spaces. This includes a makerspace, a machine shop and a design space for any student to use free of charge. Due to COVID-19 the spaces were either shut down or running virtual activities where possible. In the absence of any significant virtual content for learners, virtual computer simulations and virtual reality simulations were developed for various technologies including a manual mill and lathe, a laser cutter and soldering. Even as the COVID-19 restrictions are being lifted, the virtual simulations will be used as a pre-training introduction for in-person sessions. This paper aims to understand how well the virtual training simulations compare and compliment the in-person training for different equipment. Factors considered are the level of previous knowledge and level of interest in the equipment. The same assessment will be given to 3 groups of participants: those who have only done the virtual training, who have only done the in-person training and who have done both. The results from each group will be compared and analyzed to determine the efficacy of the virtual simulation and what advantages it has as a pre-training resource.
HANDS-ON ENGINEERING LABORATORIES AT HOME IN AN ONLINE LEARNING COURSE
Authors: O’Brien Sean 
Published: November 2022

Providing hands-on laboratory experience, can be an important part of engineering programs. However, hands-on learning opportunities can be very difficult to implement in online learning environments. This work discusses the implementation of a solid mechanics laboratory investigation challenge that was developed for students to conduct in their own homes. To ensure that the laboratory was feasible, the materials and measurement equipment utilized had to be readily available and affordable. For this reason, the investigation involved the analysis and structural optimization of a foam board part. Students cut the partgeometry out of foam board, applied a load to the part using a water filled weight and optimized the design to reduce the total volume of the part while still supporting the required load. Students utilized digital imagecorrelation software to experimentally investigate the full field strain when the load was applied to the foam board part. Students optimized the part geometry using analytical calculations and finite element simulations. This approach resulted in a very positive response from the students and an excellent quality of learning was demonstrated by the students through their reports. This approach could be beneficial in other online courses. Furthermore, this experience has demonstrated the benefits of giving students greater responsibility for their own laboratory experiences.
