Return to Reality:Speculative Design of Interaction Ritual Chains and Exploration of Alone Together

“Alone together”is an ever-changing“wicked problem.”In this research and practice,the author tries to combine experience design,referring to the theory of“interaction ritual chain theory,”and creatively add interactive experience to discursive works,so that the audience can think between the real and the virtual.

Implications of The Gift of the Magi for Moral Education of Teenagers From the Perspective of Interaction Ritual Chains

Adolescence is a pivotal moment in shaping one’s character and holds great implications for one’s values and personal growth.The Gift of the Magi by O.Henry portrays how an ordinary young couple in difficult financial circumstances managed to show their love for each other,eulogizing truth,goodness,and beauty in humanity.We conducted a thorough examination of the significance of moral values conveyed in The Gift of the Magi for teenager education using the“situation-emotion-symbol”model that is based on Randall Collins’theory of interaction ritual chains in order to establish an interaction ritual chain model for moral education of teenagers.Our study reveals that situated cognition is useful in constructing the focus of attention for the moral education of teenagers;that shared emotion is the driving force for achieving moral education of teenagers;and that symbolic connections help teenagers put the virtues they’ve learned from The Gift of the Magi into action and provides effective measures that can significantly contribute to the cultivation and implementation of moral education among teenagers.

An analysis of the interaction mechanism between the social history of medicine research and health communication from the perspective of mass communication

The mass communication model and interactive ritual chain theory,which serve as communication paradigms in the new media era,facilitate and enhance the synergy between the fields of social history of medicine and health communication.This study employs a comprehensive framework based on the five elements of the mass communication model:information source,communication subject,communication object,message content,and post-communication feedback.Additionally,it incorporates the interactive ritual chain theory to examine the evolving dynamics and developmental trajectory of research in the social history of medicine during the new media era.Conclusively,this paper acknowledges the existing interaction gaps in the interaction between health communication and the social history of medicine research while outlining the challenges for fostering collaboration and proposing strategic optimizations for effective integration.

UUV formation system modeling and simulation research based on Multi-Agent Interaction Chain

Unmanned Underwater Vehicle(UUV)formation system has an important role in the utilization of marine resource.In order to provide an efficient method to research modeling and simulation of UUV formation in the marine environment,the novel approach based on Multi-Agent Interaction Chain was proposed for the UUV formation system.Firstly,Multi-Agent Interaction Chain was analyzed,which mainly considered task and role of UUV in the formation,and the overall modeling process of UUV formation system based on Multi-Agent Interaction Chain was established.Then,the static structure of Multi-Agent Interaction Chain was researched focusing on Hybrid UUV-Agent model structure from the UUV-Agent State-Set and UUV-Agent Rule-Base which were the two aspects to strengthen reliability of interaction chain;the dynamic mechanism of Multi-Agent Interaction Chain was designed,which was focused on collaboration model and communication model through the Adaptive Dynamic Contract Net Protocol and KQML/XML/RTI.Finally,three experiments were established to verify the validity and effectiveness of proposed modeling approach for UUV formation system.Simulation results show the proposed model has good performance,which has important theoretical innovation and application prospects.

Intrachain and Interchain Interactions in Polystyrene: Dilute andSemidilutc Solutions

Excimer formation in pyrenyl labeled polystyrene has been investigated in dilutesolution region. The change of the intensity ratio of excimer to monomer (Ie/Im) with increasingconcentration (C), is interpreted by intrachain and interchain interactions. The double logarithmicPlot of Ie/Im vs C displays two critical points, Cs at about 2.5×10-3g/ml and C+ at about 3.2×10-2g/ml. In dilute region C<Cs, excimer formation may be controlled by intrachain interaction.

Effect of Interaction on the Majorana Zero Modes in the Kitaev Chain at Half Filling

The one-dimensional interacting Kitaev chain at half filling is studied. The symmetry of the Hamiltonian is examined by dual transformations, and various physical quantities as a function of the fermion-fermion interaction U are calculated systematically using the density matrix renormalization group method. A special value of interaction Up is revealed in the topological region of the phase diagram. We show that at Up the ground states are strictly two-fold degenerate even though the chain length is finite and the zero-energy peak due to the Majorana zero modes is maximally enhanced and exactly localized at the end sites. Here Up may be attractive or repulsive depending on other system parameters. We also give a qualitative understanding of the effect of interaction under the self-consistent mean field framework.

How Sense of Ritual in Tourism Impacts Tourists’Co-Creation of Tourism Experience Values:A Study Based on the Theory of Value Co-Creation

Establishing a sense of ritual within tourism consumption scenarios offers tourists the opportunity for interactive engagement.Drawing upon the value co-creation theory,this study constructed an influence mechanism model to examine tourists'active engagement in the process of co-creating tourism experience values.It employed Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling(PLS-SEM)to empirically test the proposed hypotheses.The findings demonstrate that the model constructed in the present study exhibits robust reliability,validity,and explanatory power.The perception of the sense of ritual in tourism exerts a significant positive influence on tourists’co-creation of tourism experience values,thereby significantly enhancing both the communitas and flow experienced by tourists during their travels.Moreover,such communitas and flow can mediate the influence of the sense of ritual in tourism on tourists’co-creation of tourism experience values.This study contributes to advancing the current research on tourists’co-creation of tourism experience values and the sense of ritual in tourism,thereby providing theoretical foundations for cultivating a sense of ritual within tourism consumption scenarios.

Explicit forms of zero modes in symmetric interacting Kitaev chain without and with dimerization

The fermionic and bosonic zero modes of the one-dimensional（1D） interacting Kitaev chain at the symmetric point are unveiled. The many-body structures of the Majorana zero modes in the topological region are given explicitly by carrying out a perturbation expansion up to infinite order. We also give the analytic expressions of the bosonic zero modes in the topologically trivial phase. Our results are generalized to the hybrid fermion system comprised of the interacting Kitaev model and the Su–Schrieffer–Heeger（SSH） model, in which we show that these two types of zero modes can coexist in a certain region of its phase diagram.

Regularities in the E. coli promoters composition in connection with the DNA strands interaction and promoter activity

The energy of interaction between DNA strands in promoters is of great functional importance. Visualization of the energy of DNA strands distribution in promoter sequences was achieved. The separation of promoters in groups by their energetic properties enables evaluation of the dependence of promoter strength on the energetic properties. The analysis of groups (clusters) of promoters distributed by the energy of DNA strands interaction in ?55, ?35, ?10 and +6 sequences indicates their connection with the transcriptional activity.

Toward a function realization of multi-scale modeling for lithium-ion battery based on CHAIN framework

As the most mature portable power source,lithium-ion battery has become the mainstream of power source for electric vehicles(EVs)by virtue of its high energy density,long cycle life and relatively low cost.However,an excellent battery management system remained to be a problem for the operational states monitoring and safety guarantee for EVs.In this paper,a function realization of multi-scale modeling is proposed based on cyber hierarchy and interactional network framework,realizing basic functions such as multi-scale mapping and cloud-based modeling.Furthermore,to solve the problem of limited computing capability of the conventional vehicle-end battery management system,the novel system consists of hierarchies of side,edge and cloud,which are designed to take on different computing tasks methodically and swap data iteratively,providing specific services for drivers,enterprise users,etc.Due to a series of promising features,this system has a large range of application scenarios as well as some critical bottlenecks,which will be discussed at the end of the article.Please check and confirm D.-B.Shan"is correctly identified in author group.It’s not correct.There is no"D.-B.Shan"in author group,please just remove it.

Influence of bifurcation position and length of side chains on the structure of isoindigo-based conjugated polymer thin films

We chose a series of isoindigo-based conjugated polymer（ⅡDDT,ⅡDDT-C3 and ⅡDDT-C4） with different length of side chains and bifurcation positions to investigate the relationship between the degree of alignment and the length of side chains and bifurcation positions.We found that the dichroic ratio was increased from 2.37 to 5.23 when the side chain was longer and the bifurcation position was away from the backbone.The π-π stacking distance was decreased from 3.67 A to 3.61 A when the bifurcation position was away from the backbone because of its smaller hindrance and the d-spacing of the（100）was increased from 20.06 A to 25.21 A when the side chain was longer.All the polymers were adopted an edge-on orientation with the backbone paralleled with the long axis of fibers.The weak interaction of side-chain in ⅡDDT-C4 was beneficial for the molecules being rearranged in parallel during the contact line receding and the strong n-n interaction could accelerate the interchain assembly of the parallel molecules through π-π interaction to form aligned fibers.
