Is It Really “Not Applicable?” Zoom In To Understand E-Book Accessibility, Xiaoyan Song, Danica Lewis
Is It Really “Not Applicable?” Zoom In To Understand E-Book Accessibility, Xiaoyan Song, Danica Lewis
Charleston Library Conference
The decisions that we make when reviewing our collections and negotiating licenses have enormous effects on our users. They also have the potential to, in turn, shape the priorities and decisions of publishers and platform creators. The questions we ask and standards we set now set the stage for the chapters our users inherit. And while users with special access needs might not form a large percentage of our current user population, they will always be part of that population. For e-book accessibility, it can be difficult to draw the line between what is essential, what is aspirational, and what …
The Print Book Purging Predicament: Qualitative Techniques For A Balanced Collection, Allan Scherlen, Alex D. Mcallister
The Print Book Purging Predicament: Qualitative Techniques For A Balanced Collection, Allan Scherlen, Alex D. Mcallister
Charleston Library Conference
At previous Charleston Conference meetings, there was much discussion about how to massively and efficiently weed collections across disciplines using quantitative criteria. The presenters recently published an article in Collection Management entitled “Weeding with Wisdom: Tuning Deselection of Print Monographs in Book-Reliant Disciplines” in which they argue for the importance of retaining some print materials in areas such as history and literature where scholars are dependent on older, lesser-used materials for their research and teaching. Presenters offered suggestions and invited discussion on ways to improve the deselection process through the use of qualitative techniques for weeding book-reliant disciplines in an …

Boundary Management Permeability And Relationship Satisfaction In Dual-Earner Couples: The Asymmetrical Gender Effect, Marcello Russo, Ariane Ollier-Malaterre, Ellen Ernst Kossek, Marc Ohana
Department of Management Faculty Publications
Given the increasing use of technology and the growing blurring of the boundaries between the work and nonwork domains, decisions about when to interrupt work for family and vice versa can have critical implications for relationship satisfaction within dual-earner couples. Using a sample of 104 dual-earner couples wherein one of the partners is a member of the largest Italian smartphone-user community, this study examines how variation in boundary management permeability within dual-earner couples relates to partner relationship satisfaction, and whether the effect differed by gender and partners' agreement on caregiving roles in the family. Using actor-partner analysis, we examined the …
Exploring Problem-Based Learning For Middle School Design And Engineering Education In Digital Fabrication Laboratories, Monica M. Chan, Paulo Blikstein
Exploring Problem-Based Learning For Middle School Design And Engineering Education In Digital Fabrication Laboratories, Monica M. Chan, Paulo Blikstein
Interdisciplinary Journal of Problem-Based Learning
This is a research study of design and engineering classes that use a problem-based learning (PBL) approach in digital fabrication makerspaces in two middle schools. In these studies, teachers employ a PBL approach and provide an ill-structured problem scenario to facilitate design and engineering lessons in the FabLab (fabrication laboratory). Students in each school tackled different challenges that they defined for themselves in groups. This study provides examples of student-student interactions separated into key themes—defining specifications with teammates, personal exploration, and communication about discoveries. This study also provides examples of teacher-student interactions, and themes include demonstrations with tangible objects, discussing …

Fading Memories: Archiving And Annotating Underground Vhs Tapes In Breaking Culture, Saad Mukhtar
The Journal of Purdue Undergraduate Research
This project examines the oral history of the original dance style of Hip Hop, breaking. Breaking is performed to music in sequences of movement while standing, on the floor, and in the air. There is minimal quantitative or qualitative data about the practitioners and scholars in its culture. Most of the information regarding its history is spoken orally or locked away in Video Home System (VHS) tapes. This impacts future generations who want to learn the culture and dance because primary resources are limited and fragmented on the Internet. A hundred VHS tapes, encoded in analog frequency modulation (FM) on …

Food For Thought: Restaurants And Place Making, Tania Chakraborty
The Journal of Purdue Undergraduate Research
A bare geographic space is like a brand-new home that hasn’t been lived in yet. As people begin to inhabit these spaces, they build into it to make it representative of themselves, much like we design and set up our houses to turn them into homes. This is how a place goes from just being a location to something that has a deeper meaning to its inhabitants. We look to create into the spaces we inhabit our own little corner of what is familiar to us, so that we can call a space our own. This is the essence of …
Maoism In Culture: A “Glocalized” Or “Sinicized” Marxist Literary Theory, Ning Wang
Maoism In Culture: A “Glocalized” Or “Sinicized” Marxist Literary Theory, Ning Wang
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his essay "Maoism in Culture," Ning Wang discusses the importance to literature and art of Mao's famous "Yan'an Talks" as one of his most representative works. Maoism, or Mao Zedong Thought as is generally called in China, is a "glocalized" or "Sinicized" Marxism initiated and developed by Mao and his comrades in arms and successors in China. Wang argues that although Maoism is not a dogmatically "imported" Marxism from the West, it has indeed grasped some fundamental Marxist principles in combination with the concrete Chinese literary and critical practice. Thus a "glocalized" or "Sinicized" Marxist literary theory has contributed …
The Political (Un)Conscious: Rethinking Aesthetics From A Cross-Cultural Perspective, Xiaohong Zhang
The Political (Un)Conscious: Rethinking Aesthetics From A Cross-Cultural Perspective, Xiaohong Zhang
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In her article, "The Political (Un)conscious: Rethinking Aesthetics from a Cross-Cultural Perspective," Xiaohong Zhang adopts a cross-cultural perspective, examining the cultural-specific nuances of critical terms like race, class and gender, all of which have bearings on our perception and conception of aesthetics. Drawing on Emory Elliot's groundbreaking book, Aesthetics in a Multicultural Age (2002), the paper probes into the aesthetic experience whose primary effect is to depragmatize. Along this line of thinking, the author draws attention to the aesthetic impetus of two Nobel laureates, Mo Yan and Gao Xingjian, whose rewriting of Western classics demonstrates Chinese authors' shared predilection for …
Oral Sensations And Secretions, Cordelia Running
Oral Sensations And Secretions, Cordelia Running
Department of Food Science Faculty Publications
Sensations experienced in the mouth influence food choices, both immediately and in the long term. Such sensations are themselves influenced by experience with flavors, the chemical environment of the mouth, genetics of receptors for flavors, and individual behavior in the chewing of food. Gustation, the sense of taste, yields information about nutrients, influences palatability, and feeds into the human body's preparation to receive those nutrients. Olfaction, the sense of smell, contributes enormously to defining and identifying food flavors (and is experienced even after placing food inside the mouth). Another vital component of food flavor is texture, which contributes …
Mao's "On Contradiction," Mao-Hegel/Mao-Deleuze, Kenneth Surin
Mao's "On Contradiction," Mao-Hegel/Mao-Deleuze, Kenneth Surin
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
Mao Tse-Tung's famous 1937 essay "On Contradiction" is regarded as a significant attempt to redefine and reapply Marx's notion of a "dialectical contradiction" to the Chinese revolutionary conjuncture of Mao's time. I set out the principles outlined in Mao's essay, before arguing that the revolutionary conjuncture of his time no longer exists in the era of globalization and neoliberalism. I conclude that a new conception of "antagonism" is needed, and revise Mao's position with the aid of the philosophy of Deleuze and Guattari.
Maoist Aesthetics In Western Left-Wing Thought, Jun Zeng, Siying Duan
Maoist Aesthetics In Western Left-Wing Thought, Jun Zeng, Siying Duan
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In their article “Maoist Aesthetics in Western Left-wing Thought,” Jun Zeng and Siying Duan discuss a terrain of knowledge called “Maoist aesthetics,” which is the creative misreading of Mao’s “On Contradiction,” the theory and practice of “Cultural Revolution” and other revolutionary literature and arts of Mao’s time by Western Left intellectuals. Scholars and academic communities inspired by Maoism include Bertolt Brecht, Herbert Marcuse, Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Louis Pierre Althusser, the Chinese period of Tel Quel, Fredric Jameson, Arif Dirlik, and Contemporary Radical Left intellectuals such as Alain Badiou and Slavoj Zizek. Comparative study of the mutual influence of …
The Quest For Redemption: Central European Jewish Thought In Joseph Roth's Works, Rares G. Piloiu
The Quest For Redemption: Central European Jewish Thought In Joseph Roth's Works, Rares G. Piloiu
Purdue University Press Book Previews
Quest for Redemption: Central European Jewish Thought in Joseph Roth's Works by Rares Piloiu fills an important gap in Roth scholarship, placing Roth’s major works of fiction for the first time in the context of a generational interest in religious redemption among the Jewish intellectuals of Central Europe. In it, Piloiu argues that Roth’s challenging, often contradictory and ambivalent literary output is the result of an attempt to recast moral, political, and historical realities of an empirically observable world in a new, religiously transfigured reality through the medium of literature. This diegetic recasting of phenomenological encounters with the real is …
Mapping Out Chinese Modernity And Alternative Modernity, Song Li
Mapping Out Chinese Modernity And Alternative Modernity, Song Li
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article, “Mapping Out Chinese Modernity and Alternative Modernity,” Song Li reviews the writings of Kang Liu, particularly his Aesthetics and Marxism. Kang Liu studies the intellectual trajectory of Chinese Marxism from its inception to its post-Mao phases of transformation by comparing it with the cultural and aesthetic thinking of Western Marxism. It provides not only a new perspective for the study of Marxism in general and Chinese Marxism in particular, but also opens up a new space for mapping out Chinese modernity and alternative modernity. Its 2012 Chinese translation makes it more accessible in China, and it will …
From The "Other" To The "Master Narrative": The Chinese Journey Of The Frankfurt School, Guohua Zhu, Xiangchun Meng
From The "Other" To The "Master Narrative": The Chinese Journey Of The Frankfurt School, Guohua Zhu, Xiangchun Meng
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In their article, "From the 'Other' to the 'Master Narrative': The Chinese Journey of the Frankfurt School," Guohua Zhu and Xiangchun Meng discuss the Chinese reception of Frankfurt School and the Maoist historical context. Chinese scholars take the narrow view of the Frankfurt School theories as a depoliticized instrument to explain Chinese practice, particularly in the realm of mass culture. Furthermore, the Frankfurt School has encountered the powerful political and ideological legacy of Maoism, which not only dictates instrumentalist view, but also predisposes to a nationalistic attitude that pits Chinese exceptionalism against universalism, including the Frankfurt School and other western …

Introduction: Rethinking Critical Theory And Maoism, Kang Liu
CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture
In his article, "Rethinking Critical Theory and Maoism," Kang Liu reviews the existing literature in English on the relationship of Critical Theory and Maoism and discusses the need to explore and reconstruct a genealogy of Critical Theory and Maoism within the global context of political, ideological, and intellectual currents and trends. The special issue will focus on three clusters of issues: first, the western invention of Maoism as a universal theory of revolution; second, the reception of Critical Theory in China and its relationship to Maoism; and third, the relevance of Maoism and Critical Theory today. Liu raises the question …
Weight Minimization Of Automotive Sound Packages In The Presence Of Air Leaks, Hyunjun Shin, J Stuart Bolton
Weight Minimization Of Automotive Sound Packages In The Presence Of Air Leaks, Hyunjun Shin, J Stuart Bolton
Publications of the Ray W. Herrick Laboratories
In previous work, a sound package consisting of a layer of limp, fibrous material and a flexible microperforated panel was considered. It was found that a weight optimization process for their treatment gave many different flow resistivity and surface density combinations that yielded the same spaceaveraged interior pressures downstream of the sound package. Thus, from the optimization results, it was possible to identify a potential weight reduction range. Generally, it was found that a combination of a relatively heavy, high flow resistance MPP with a relatively light fibrous layer gave the lowest weight solutions at a given space-average pressure (SAP) …
A Comparison Between Glass Fibers And Polymeric Fibers When Serving As A Structural Damping Medium For Fuselage-Like Structures, Yutong Xue, J Stuart Bolton, Thomas Herdtle, Seungkyu Lee, Ronald W. Gerdes
A Comparison Between Glass Fibers And Polymeric Fibers When Serving As A Structural Damping Medium For Fuselage-Like Structures, Yutong Xue, J Stuart Bolton, Thomas Herdtle, Seungkyu Lee, Ronald W. Gerdes
Publications of the Ray W. Herrick Laboratories
In previous studies, theories have been developed and simulations performed to show that properly designed fibrous media can be very effective at reducing structural vibration as well as absorbing airborne sound. Therefore, the potential range of noise control applications for fibrous media such as glass and polymeric fiber has been broadened due to this multi-functionality. Since the acoustical, sound absorption properties of these two kinds of fibers are well-known, the current study focused on a comparison of their damping performance when they are used as layered dampers for a fuselage-like structure: i.e., a panel with frames. A layer of …
How Nationality, Weather, Wind, And Distance Affect Consumer Willingness To Fly In Autonomous Airplanes, Nadine K. Ragbir, Bradley S. Baugh, Stephen Rice, Scott R. Winter
How Nationality, Weather, Wind, And Distance Affect Consumer Willingness To Fly In Autonomous Airplanes, Nadine K. Ragbir, Bradley S. Baugh, Stephen Rice, Scott R. Winter
Journal of Aviation Technology and Engineering
Several studies have examined passengers’ trust in human-operated systems versus autonomous systems. Prior studies have also reported cultural differences among individuals from India and the United States. The purpose of this study was to investigate how nationality, weather, wind, and distance affect passengers’ willingness to fly in autonomous aircraft. Participants included 161 volunteers from the United States and 137 volunteers from India. In 12 different conditions, participants were asked to rate their willingness to fly in an autonomous aircraft, given information about the weather (sunny, raining, or snowing), the wind level (no wind versus strong wind), and the flight distance …
