From political perspective, this thesis will take the popularity of Yu Hua’s works in US into account to analyze and explore how cultural soft power, has impacts on translation activities, especially translation direction and source text selection.展开更多

The domestic refrigerator used R134a as refrigerant. Two energy consumption procedures were adapted from the JIS and ISO standards. The biggest difference between two standards is that the fridge is not opened in the ISO test while it is opened a number of times in the JIS test. The tests were carried out between 190 V and 250 V in steps of 10 V. The reduction in energy consumption was of 49.78 W-h per day or 6.27% of the total consumption. The experiments also showed that the voltage drop resulted in only a small rpm drop which in turn did not result in a noticeable refrigerant flow-rate change. Consequently the temperatures and pressures were not affected.展开更多

The slosh-spacecraft coupled with flexible appendage in attitude maneuver carrying a sloshing liquid is considered as multi-body system with the sloshing motion modeled as a spherical pendulum. The focus in this paper is that the dynamics of the liquid and flexible appendage vibration are coupled. The equations of motion are derived and transformed into a form suitable for the application of Melnikov’s method. Melnikov’s integral is used to predict the transversal intersections of the stable and unstable manifolds for the perturbed system. An analytical criterion for chaotic motion is derived in terms of system parameters. This criterion is evaluated for its significance to the design of spacecraft. The dependence of the onset of chaos on quantities such as body shape and magnitude of damping values, fuel fraction and torsional vibration frequency of flexible appendage are investigated. In addition, we show that a spacecraft carrying a sloshing liquid, after passive reorientation maneuver, will end up with periodic limit motion other than a final major axis spin because of the intrinsic non-linearity of fuel slosh. Furthermore, an extensive numerical simulation is carried out to validate the Melnikov’s analytical result.展开更多
