Hawthorne's The Minister's Black Veil,with the obscurity and uncertainty in its disclosure, offers the feasibility for a deconstruction study. The binary oppositions and its deconstruction of the "black veil" in perspective of persona, idea and existence contribute to the void perception and activities of Mr.Hooper, the protagonist as well as the author's literary practice.展开更多

(Shibuya, Tokyo) to prevent exercise-induced muscle swelling. Calf circumferences and mus-cle stiffness of both legs were measured in 10 healthy female. The measurements were made on before 5-minute exercise, after the exercise, and after 10-minute recovery care with CVS and 5-minute rest. The recovery care was applied only on right leg of the subjects. Then, multiple comparisons of calf circumference and muscle stiffness on each leg among pre-exer-cise, post-exercise, and final measurements were carried out. Exercise caused a significant increase in calf circumference and muscle stiff-ness. The recovery care with CVS rapidly re-duced postexercise calf circumference to pre-exercise level. Relationship between reduc-ing muscle swelling after exercise and prevent-ing sport injury should be explored in further studies.展开更多

The process of the fallen heroin Kitty's awakening and maturity was profound in the theme of this novel. Kitty was a compli-cated character. Without personal financial independence, she married to someone she did not love. Before long, she had a love af-fair stealthily with another man. After her husband found out the truth and Kitty was abandoned by her lover, she was taken to a de-pressed countryside by her husband, in which Kitty witnessed countless life and death. After all these experiences, she changed alot and achieved self-awakening. The mental world of Kitty was worth discussing. Kitty's id, ego and superego will be analyzedfrom the perspective of Freudian consciousness theory in this thesis, so as to study how she changed herself and had such a hugespiritual awakening.展开更多

The black veil in it symbolizes the sin. This paper based on the Freudian theory — the three structures of personality: id,ego and superego,is to point out that the process of the minister's wearing the veil is that of the interacting and compromising of the three personalities and that the alienation of the minister's personality is caused by the imbalance of the three personalities.展开更多

It was carried out at Cranfield University Composites Centre, Milton Keynes, UK as an MSc by research thesis project. A series of low-cost composite laminates, with or without novel veils provided by Tenax, was manufactured using current aircraft carbon fiber preforms via vacuum infusion （VI） molding in this research. All the investigations on damage resistance of these panels were carried out according to the British Standard （BS ISO 18353：2009）. Initial damage was induced using a falling weight apparatus mounting a 16 mm hemispherical tip. C-scan and Micrograph were employed to reveal damage characteristics. Finally, both compression after impact （CAI） and plain compression strength were experimented. The behaviors of these panels, including damage size, damage construction, residual compression strength, and compression strength reduction, were utilized to investigate how and to what extent the veils affected the damage resistance. The results show that using veils is an efficient method of improving the damage resistance of the laminates studied. Maximum 32% increase in residual compression strength is achieved via veils accompanying with 7% increase in cost.展开更多

During the early days of the Tang Dynasty, women wore veiled hats with semi-transparent gauze covering their faces. The veiled hat was developed by the northwestern nationalities who wore them to protect their faces from wind and dust. But the Han women wore them to cover their faces.
