The Counter-Elite＇s Spirit Reflected in The Bridges of Madison County

The Bridges of Madison County by Robert James Waller occupies an important position in American popular literature. On August 16, 1992, The Bridges of Madison County debuted on the New York Times bestsellers list and it spent the following three years on Times bestsellers. In this fiction, the author knit the story from multipoint views to portray Robert Kincaid, the hero in the novel, and how he showed his counter-elite＇s spirit with his behavior during the 1960s in the United States （US）. The present paper, first of all, gives a brief introduction of the story. Then, the paper mainly explores the novel from two aspects： Robert Kincaid＇s challenge against the industrialized American society and the counter-elite＇s spirit reflected in the novel. The paper concludes that Robert Kincaid is a counter-elite in the industrialized American, where elites are the mainstream of the society.

大跨度钢管混凝土拱桥的模态分析

模态分析是结构动力分析的基础。目前对大跨度钢管混凝土拱桥进行模态分析主要采用非线性有限元法,本文介绍了这种方法采用的单元类型和建模方法,以丫髻沙大桥为研究对象,针对桥梁结构的实际情况进行模态分析。     

找到心仪工作,只需六招

Whether your preferred destination is the executive suite or simply the nearest exit from your current position, don't let your job take you aimlessly down any path. In fact when it comes to career planning, don't think in terms of "jobs" at all, says corporate transitions expert William Bridges, Ph.D. Instead he suggests building your career plan on "doing the work you're best at for the employers who need it."     

“七桥问题”及其对数学教育的启示

通过对欧拉《哥尼斯堡桥》一文的分析,揭示了欧拉解决“哥尼斯堡七桥问题”的过程中体现的重要数学思想、策略和方法,尤其是数学化思想。这些思想、方法和策略正是我国目前数学教育的薄弱环节,对数学创新型人才的培养和数学问题解决的教学具有重要的启示。     

侗族建筑中的数学元素

侗族传统建筑在继承百越民族干栏建筑和广泛吸收其他民族建筑精华的基础上融合本民族的文化特征和理念,与自身的风格渗透、交织在一起,发展成为中国传统木结构建筑的重要组成部分和优秀代表．在侗族鼓楼、风雨桥和民居的建造过程中,侗族建筑工匠们大量的使用近似公式和经验公式,发展出等分圆周和正多边形作图的技巧,频繁使用对称、全等和相似等手法并蕴含有黄金分割比的运用,同时在建筑层数、边数等方面巧妙地进行奇偶搭配,孕育着阴阳合一、天人合一的思想．因此,以鼓楼为代表的侗族建筑是侗族全部精神性的文化结晶,这也正是我们将侗族文化称之为“鼓楼文化”的原因所在．     

浅谈挂篮施工要点

在现代社会的公路建设中,桥梁所占的位置举足轻重,相应的钢构桥所占分量也越来越大,悬臂挂篮施工在施工中得到广泛的应用。悬臂挂篮施工,即从桥墩两侧悬挂施工作业平台,对称均衡地向跨中浇筑混凝土。主要用于一些跨线路、航道上部结构为变截面连续梁、T形刚构等结构类型的桥梁建设。     

反复:《廊桥遗梦》语言的陌生化

"陌生化"是俄国形式主义的核心概念。俄国形式主义提倡用"陌生语言",即对日常语言进行有组织的"强暴"达到"文学性"的效果。《廊桥遗梦》语言的"陌生化"主要表现在大量地使用反复。     

Archaeometric and geological constraints for the provenance of carbonatic breccias used in monumental works along the Flaminia Consular Road (Umbria-Marche, Central Italy)

Along the Umbria-Marche stretch of the Flaminia Consular Road (220 B.C.) several archaeological finds of the most important monumental works, are well preserved. The stones, employed to build many bridges, substructions and sewerages, are represented by carbonatic breccias whose geological environment of formation and source areas had never been established. On the basis of mineralogical, petrographic and micropalaeontological analyses, two groups of these lithotypes employed in Roman age were distinguished: “monogenic carbonatic breccias” only constituted by clasts of the Maiolica Unit (Late Jurassic – Early Cretaceous) and “polygenic carbonatic breccias” made of fragments (in different proportions) of Calcare Massiccio (Early Jurassic), Corniola (Early Jurassic), Maiolica (Late Jurassic – Early Cretaceous) and Scaglia Rossa (Late Cretaceous – Early Paleogene) Units. The possible source areas of the breccias are compatible with stratified slope-waste to scarp-base deposits of periglacial origin belonging to the Upper Pleistocene. In particular, among the seven investigated areas, we pointed out the most probable provenances (Monte Faeto-Colle, Costacciaro, Scirca, Foci, Secchiano) along the flanks of the Apennine Mesozoic chain of the Umbria and Marche regions. Although the Romans could have exploited the whole thickness of some outcrops (now disappeared) of these carbonatic lithotypes at the deepest part of the valleys, we have constrained a local provenance of the breccias so commonly used in the monumental works of the Flaminia.
