本研究討論台灣當代小說的瘋狂敘事，以舞鶴和陳雪的小說創作為主要觀察中心。在討論瘋狂敘事之前，首先解釋「現實」概念在不同時代背景、不同文化團體之間所具有的多重指涉，藉著分析不同文化團體與作者間的相互關係，本研究發現在這樣的文化場域內所產生的拉攏和排拒力量，都將影響作家的創作甚鉅。然而，有些作家卻以瘋狂敘事作為一種保持「心靈語言」的方式。本研究主要先找出台灣小說瘋狂敘事的系譜，追溯至六○年代現代主義作家，以王文興為例，他在小說中早已經表現出「理性啟蒙」和「浪漫瘋癲」的雙重意識。在舞鶴的作品中，他藉由瘋癲者被監禁的主題裡繼續「理性」和「瘋狂」相互交纏的雙重結構，並研發出他扭曲的文法，逆轉了「神聖」與「卑賤」的涵意，同時他也自鑄各種新詞，以作為威權時代後的創傷病癥。論文的第二部分討論陳雪的瘋狂敘事，發掘她與前世代女性作家瘋狂敘事的差異之處。不同於奧菲莉亞的浪漫或美杜莎的恐怖形象，陳雪以混亂而不安的精神辯論、循環不已的時間系統表現出創傷的延遲反應。但陳雪的創作不停留於自憐階段，反倒以創傷為媒介，展開集體附魔的發瘋效應。因此，在舞鶴與陳雪的精彩絢麗的文字創作中，我們看見瘋狂敘事多向發展的可能性和差異性。 / The study discusses the narrative of madness in contemporary Taiwan fiction, focusing on the works of Wu He and Cheng Syue. The study starts with an interpretation of the multiple meanings of “reality” in different eras and backgrounds, as well as the diverse understandings of “reality” among different cultural groups. By analyzing the relationships between opposite cultural groups and writers in the Post-Martial Law era, the study finds out that the strengths of both alliance and repulsion inside the cultural field greatly influence literary writings; some writers, however, utilize the narrative of madness to retain “language of the mind.” The main part of the study discovers the genealogy of the narrative of madness in Taiwan by tracing back to the modernist generation in the 1960s, including Wang Wen Hsing, who shows double consciousness of “enlightenment reason” and “romantic madness.” My study then aims at the theme of “confinement” in Wu He’s works, since he extends the dual structure of “reason” and “madness” through the concept of “confinement.” Besides, Wu He develops a distorted grammar to converse the concepts of “sanctity” and “ignobility” and creates new phrases to show the symptoms of trauma after the authoritarian era. The second part of the study is to analyze the narrative of madness of Chen Syue, discussing the differences of expressing madness between her and the female writers of the earlier generation. Unlike the romantic figures of Ophelia and the horrible images of Medusa, Chen Syue’s works show the belated traumatic affects with anxious debates and circulating systems of time. Furthermore, Chen Syue’s writings do not stop at the stage of narcissism, but rather reveal the mediating function of trauma which triggers madness. Therefore, in Wu He and Cheng Syue’s works, verbal extravagance displays diverse possibilities and aspects of the narrative of madness.

L'étude de la fusion par confinement inertiel du mélange deutérium + tritium (DT) est une problématique depuis longtemps abordée par le CEA. Les expérimentations liées à cette thématique, effectuées prochainement au sein du laser mégajoule (LMJ), nécessitent l'utilisation de matériaux aux propriétés particulières. Cela concerne entre autres les mousses de polymères (aérogels organiques) composant les cibles de pré-ignition. De tels matériaux doivent notamment associer une importante porosité à une forte teneur métallique (1% atomique de Ti), tout en étant compatible avec les procédés de préparation utilisés. Dans ce contexte, un nouveau complexe polymérisable de titane a été préparé et caractérisé par plusieurs techniques d'analyses. Ce monomère dispose d'une forte teneur métallique tout en présentant une bonne stabilité vis-à-vis l'air et l'humidité. Sa copolymérisation radicalaire selon différentes conditions suivie d'un séchage en condition supercritique a permis l'obtention d'une série d'aérogels organiques. Les caractérisations chimiques (RMN, infrarouge et analyses élémentaires) ainsi que les caractérisations structurales (MEB-EDS, MET, mesure des isothermes d'adsorption/désorption de l'azote et SAXS) de ces polymères ont permis de valider les critères mentionnés dans notre cahier des charges. En outre, ces données ont permis de déterminer les mécanismes de formation de la nanostructure des mousses. / Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) is a technique widely studied by the French atomic commission (CEA). Experiments will be performed within the Laser Megajoule (LMJ). They require innovative materials like organic aerogels that constitute laser targets. Such polymeric material must provide both a high porosity and a significant titanium percentage (1 atom %). Moreover, the monomers developed must be compatible with the synthesis procedure already in use. According to these specifications, a new polymerizable titanium complex was synthesized and fully characterized. This air and moisture-stable monomer provides a high metal percentage. Its free-radical cross-linked copolymerization affords several titanium-containing polymers. These gels were dried under supercritical conditions and organic aerogels were obtained. The chemical compositions of these materials were investigated by NMR, IR and elemental analysis while their structure was characterized by MEB-EDS, MET, N2 adsorption/desorption isotherms measurements and SAXS. The data collected fit the specification requirements. Moreover, the mechanisms responsible of the foam nanostructure formation were discussed.

The geological disposal of nuclear waste, in underground openings and the long-term performance of these openings demand a detailed understanding of fundamental rock mechanics. A full scale field experiment: Äspö Pillar Stability Experiment was conducted at a depth of 450 m in sparsely fractured granitic rock to examine the rock mass response between two deposition holes. An oval shaped tunnel was excavated parallel to the σ3 direction to provide access to the experiment and also provide elevated stress magnitudes in the floor. In the tunnel floor two 1.75-m diameter 6-m deep boreholes were excavated so that a 1-m thick pillar was created between them. In one of the holes a confinement pressure of 700 kPa was applied and in the other displacement transducers were installed. The pillar volume was monitored by an Acoustic Emission System. Spatially distributed thermocouples were used to monitor the temperature development as the pillar was heated by electrical heaters. The excavation-induced stress together with the thermal-induced stress was sufficient to cause the wall of the open borehole to yield. The temperature-induced stress was increased slowly to enable detailed studies of the rock mass yielding process. Once the rock mass loading response was observed, the rock mass was unloaded using a de-stress slotting technique. This thesis focuses on the in-situ study of the rock mass response to coupled mechanical thermal loading and thermal-mechanical unloading. The experiment, its design, monitoring and observations are thoroughly described. An estimate of the yielding strength of the rock mass is presented and compared with laboratory test and results from other rock mass conditions reported elsewhere in the open literature. General conclusions about the effect of the confining pressure and the observations from the unloading of the pillar are also presented. Important findings are that the yielding strength of the rock mass has been successfully determined, low confinement pressures significantly affects the onset of yielding, the primary mode of fracture initiation and propagation is extensional, no significant time dependency of the yielding process was observed. The unloading studies also indicated that what appeared to be shear bands likely was a propagating zone of extensile failure that weakened the rock so that displacements in the shear direction could occur. / <p>QC 20100622</p>

Nanotechnology is the science and engineering of creating functional materials by precise control of matter at nanometer (nm) length scale and exploring novel properties at that scale. It is vital to understand the quantum mechanical phenomena manifested at nanometer scale dimensions since that will enable us to precisely engineer quantum mechanical properties to realize novel device functionalities. This dissertation investigates optical and electronic properties of compound and transition metal doped compound semiconductor nanowires with a view to exploiting them for a wide range of applications in semiconductor electronic and optical devices. In this dissertation work, basic concepts of optical and electronic properties at low dimensional structures will be discussed in chapter 1. Chapter 2 discusses the nanofabrication technique employed to fabricate highly ordered nanowires. Using this method, which is based on electrochemical self-assembly techniques, we can fabricate highly ordered and size controlled nanowires and quantum dots of different materials. In Chapter 3, we report size dependent fluorescence spectroscopy of ZnSe and Mn doped ZnSe nanowires fabricated by the above method. The nanowires exhibit blue shift in the emission spectrum due to quantum confinement effect, which increases the effective bandgap of the semiconductor. We found that the fluorescence spectrum of Mn doped ZnSe nanowires shows high luminescence efficiency, which seems to increase with increasing Mn concentration. These results are highly encouraging for applications in multi spectral displays. Chapter 4 investigates field emission results of highly ordered 50 nm tapered ZnO nanowires that were also fabricated by electrochemical self-assembly. Subsequent to fabrication, the nanowires tips are exposed by chemical etching which renders the tips conical in shape. This tapered shape concentrates the electric field lines at the tip of the wires, and that, in turn, increases the emission current density while lowering the threshold field for the onset of field emission. Measurement of the Fowler-Nordheim tunneling current carried out in partial vacuum indicates that the threshold electric field for field emission in 50-nm diameter ZnO nanowires is 15 V/µm. In this study we identified the key constraint that can increase the threshold field and reduce emission current density. In Chapter 5 we report optical and magnetic measurement of Mn-doped ZnO nanowires. Hysterisis measurements carried out at various temperatures show a ferromagnetic behavior with a Curie temperature of ~ 200 K. We also studied Mn-doping of the ZnO nanowires. The room temperature fluorescence spectroscopy of Mn-doped ZnO nanowires shows a red-shift in the spectra compared to the undoped ZnO nanowires possibly due to strain introduced by the dopants in the nanowires. Finally, in Chapter 6, we report our study of the ensemble averaged transverse spin relaxation time (T2*) in InSb thin films and nanowires using electron spin resonance (ESR) measurement. Unfortunately, the nanowires contained too few spins to produce a detectable signal in our apparatus, but the thin films contained enough spins (> 109/cm2) to produce a measurable ESR signal. We found that the T2* decreases rapidly with increasing temperature between 3.5 K and 20 K, which indicates that spin-dephasing is primarily caused by spin-phonon interactions.

Dans ce travail nous étudions l’élaboration, la caractérisation et les applications de différents matériaux poreux. L’étude est organisée en trois parties majeures: la synthèse de zéolithes micro/mesoporeux et leur application potentielle dans l’industrie pétrochimique, l’étude théorique de mécanismes réactionnels sur des zeolites microporeux, et le design de métaux mesoporeux avec une chiralité intrinsèque de leur surface interne. Ces matériaux poreux montrent des propriétés excellentes, notamment pour des applications potentielles en catalyse et comme interfaces chirales. / In the present work, the elaboration, characterisation and applications of differentporous materials have been studied. Porous materials are divided into three categoriesdepending on the porous cavity size, namely microporous materials (pore diameter < 2nm), mesoporous materials (2 nm < pore diameter < 50 nm) and macroporous materials(pore diameter > 50 nm). The thesis work is organized in three major parts: the synthesisof hierarchical micro/mesoporous zeolites and their potential application for thepetrochemical industry, the theoretical study of reaction mechanisms on microporouszeolite and the design of mesoporous metals with intrinsic chirality at their inner surface.The hierarchical micro/mesoporous zeolite, composed of microporous andmesoporous features, has been prepared using carbon-silica (C/SiO2) composites derivedfrom a pyrolysis of hydrocarbon gas on silica gel. Our findings demonstrate that not onlythe presence of a high surface area and porosity, but also an improved efficiency of thesematerials for many petrochemical processes such as n-butene isomerization, nhexadecanecatalytic cracking and hydrocracking. The novel synthetic method is expectedto be generalized for other types of zeolites, and is considered to be a promising methodfor creating hierarchical micro/mesoporous zeolites for potential catalytic applications,especially in the petrochemical industry.In addition to the study of practical catalytic aspects, a theoretical approach hasbeen used to investigate potential reaction mechanisms such as the selective isomerizationof 1-butene into isobutene. More specifically, the monomolecular skeletal isomerizationof 1-butene into isobutene on H-FER zeolite was theoretically studied by using theONIOM approach. This process was found to involve the transformation of adsorbed 1-butene through 2-butoxide, isobutoxide, and tert-butyl cation intermediates. The ratedeterminingstep is the conversion of isobutoxide into isobutene, in which the reactionhas to proceed through the primary isobutyl cation transition state. The shape selectivitydue to the “nano-confinement” effect of the zeolite framework strongly affects theadsorption, the stability of alkoxide species and carbenium ion, as well as the skeletalisomerization mechanism of 1-butene.Moreover, the microporous and mesoporous zeolite, the generation of chiralmesoporous metal and its enantioselective recognition properties have been studied.Molecular imprinting (MI) is a major approach for generating materials withenantioselective properties. In this work, a chiral imprinted mesoporous platinum hasbeen obtained by the electrochemical reduction of platinum salts in the simultaneouspresence of a lyotropic liquid crystal phase and chiral template molecules. The resultingmaterials exhibit not only a dramatic increase in active surface area due to theirmesoporosity, but also a significant discrimination between two enantiomers of a chiralprobe, confirmed by both electrochemical and enantioselective adsorption experiments.Most importantly the porous platinum retains its chiral character even after removal of thechiral template molecule. Our findings could lead to the development of new materials,which are of potential interest for applications in areas such as chiral synthesis, sensors,separation, purification and drug development.

Les travaux de thèse ont permis de quantifier l'efficacité de confinement de deux dispositifs distincts (un poste de sécurité microbiologique et une sorbonne classique) lors de la production simultanée de nanoaérosols et d'un gaz traceur (SF6). Deux techniques de mesure différentes ont été exploitées : la première basée sur la mesure de la distribution granulométrique de l'aérosol s'échappant (SMPS-C), l'autre reposant sur la détection de fluorescence d'échantillons prélevés (fluorescéine sodée utilisée comme marqueur des nanoparticules). Les résultats ont permis d'établir une forte corrélation entre le comportement d'un nanoaérosol et celui d'un gaz traceur lorsqu'ils sont émis simultanément dans une enceinte ventilée. Plus encore, on a observé une rétrodiffusion gazeuse quasiment deux fois plus importante pour le gaz traceur que pour les nanoparticules testées dans différentes configurations. Le dépôt ainsi que l'agglomération présents dans le cas du transport d'un nuage de nanoparticules peuvent expliquer ces écarts dans le niveau global de confinement obtenu. Cependant, ce constat n'est pas un gage de protection suffisante dans la mesure où il n'existe pas de valeur spécifique de référence lors de l'exposition à des nanoparticules. Il est alors utile de respecter les règles de bonne conduite qui ont été définies dans de nombreux guides INRS ou au travers de multiples études de l'IRSN. En plus de ces études expérimentales, le banc d'essai développé à l'INRS a fait l'objet d'une simulation numérique permettant de valider un modèle eulérien de transport et de dépôt implémenté dans un code de CFD destiné à modéliser le comportement d'un nanoaérosol. Les résultats numériques/expérimentaux sont concordants ; les ordres de grandeur des niveaux de confinement atteints sont comparables / The thesis works have enabled us to quantify the containment efficiency of two devices (a microbiological safety cabinet and classical fume hood) during the simultaneous production of nanoaerosols and a tracer gas (SF6). Two different measurement techniques were used: the first based on the measurement of particle size distribution of the escaping aerosol (SMPS-C), the other based on the detection of fluorescence of samples (sodium fluorescein used as marker of nanoparticles). The results have established a strong correlation between the behavior of a nanoaerosols and the tracer gas when they are emitted simultaneously in a ventilated enclosure. More, we observed that tracer gas back diffusion was almost twice greater than for nanoparticles back diffusion in all the tested configurations. The deposit and the agglomeration present in the case of transport of a cloud of nanoparticles can explain these differences in the overall level of containment. However, this observation does not guarantee sufficient protection since there is no specific reference value for nanoparticle exposure. It is useful to observe the guidelines that have been defined in many INRS publications or through IRSN studies. In addition to these experimental studies, the test-rig developed at INRS has been numerically simulated to validate an eulerian transport and deposition model implemented in a CFD code for modeling the behavior of a nanoaerosol. Numerical and experimental results are concordant; orders of magnitude for the achieved containment levels are comparable

Neste estudo foram analisados experimentalmente o comportamento de 24 pilares curtos de Concreto de Ultra Alta Resistência - CUAR, confinados por armaduras helicoidais, avaliando especificamente os acréscimos de resistência e ductilidade obtidos com diferentes níveis de pressão lateral de confinamento. Na etapa experimental foram realizados ensaios de pilares curtos de CUAR com as seguintes características: - seção circular de 7,2 cm de diâmetro e comprimento de 23 cm, e quatro níveis de resistência à compressão do concreto sendo eles, 165, 175, 200 e 229 MPa, dosados sem e com adição de fibras metálicas; - diferentes espaçamentos das armaduras helicoidais, de modo que fossem obtidas situações com baixo, médio e alto índice de confinamento e taxa de armadura longitudinal fixa. Os ensaios de compressão centrada foram realizados com controle de deslocamento, de modo que foram obtidas as curvas força x deslocamento completas. Constatou-se que a seção resistente dos pilares de CUAR é a formada pelo núcleo de concreto confinado, área delimitada pelo eixo da armadura transversal. Observou-se que o CUAR com fibras metálicas apresenta maior deformação do núcleo de concreto confinado em relação ao núcleo de concreto confinado de CUAR sem adição de fibras metálicas, indicando dessa forma, que os pilares de CUAR com fibras metálicas apresentam comportamento mais dúctil. Para as situações de alto confinamento foram gerados ao concreto do núcleo confinado significativos acréscimos de resistência e deformação axial, aumentando a resistência do concreto confinado em relação a resistência do concreto não confinado em: 82,26%, 75,34%, 90,46% e 70,51%, respectivamente, e as deformações axiais do concreto confinado em relação a deformação axial do concreto não confinado em: 433%, 474%, 647% e 550%. Finalmente, acredita-se que os resultados obtidos poderão trazer subsídios para aplicações futuras desta técnica de confinamento na construção de novos elementos estruturais e no reforço de pilares submetidos a elevados níveis de solicitação axial. / This study evaluated experimentally the behavior of 24 short columns of Ultra High Strength Concrete - UHSC confined by helical transverse reinforcement, specifically evaluating strength increases and ductility obtained with different levels of lateral pressure of confinement. In the experimental phase short UHSC columns with the following characteristics were tested: - circular cross section of 7.2 cm diameter and 23 cm length, four levels of concrete strength (165, 175, 200 and 229 MPa), with and without addition of metallic fibers; - different spacing of transverse reinforcement, so that situations were obtained with low, medium and high level of confinement, while the longitudinal reinforcement ratio was fixed. The centered compression tests were conducted with displacement control, so that complete force x displacement curves were obtained. It was found that the resistant section of UHSC columns is formed by the confined concrete core delimited by the axis of the transverse reinforcement. It was observed that the axial displacement reached in columns with steel fibers was higher than without fibers, indicating that columns with steel fibers exhibit more ductile behavior. For high confinement levels significant axial strength and displacement increases were observed. Increases of axial strength of confined concrete in comparison to unconfined concrete were 82.26%, 75.34%, 90, 46% and 70.51%. Axial displacements were increased by 433%, 474%, 647% and 550%. Finally, it is believed that the results could provide information for future applications of this technique in construction of a new type of columns or in strengthening of columns subjected to high levels of axial force.

O objetivo deste trabalho é compreender a forma como o adolescente em cumprimento de medida socioeducativa de internação é socialmente construído pelos funcionários que atuam ao final do processo de implementação de tal medida, como psicólogos, assistentes sociais, professores e agentes de apoio socioeducativo, ou seja, por aqueles que executam e vivenciam, a seu modo, a medida socioeducativa determinada pelo Judiciário ao adolescente. Dessa forma, intenciona-se acessar as formas como tais funcionários atribuem sentido às atitudes do adolescente com quem interagem cotidianamente, compreendendo as categorias e classificações produzidas e/ou reproduzidas por este grupo profissional ao delimitar direitos e deveres do adolescente internado. Dessa forma, entende-se aqui que as lógicas classificatórias utilizadas por tais funcionários mostram-se como fontes para julgamentos e atitudes, construindo um sistema de interpretação. Nesse contexto, objetiva-se compreender as classificações mobilizadas por tais funcionários, bem como as formas como tais classificações são instrumentalizadas no cotidiano da medida socioeducativa de internação / The goal of this research is to understand how confined juveniles are socially constructed by the employees who work in the end of the implementation process of the confinement measure, such as psychologists, social assistants, teachers and and social-pedagogical agents. These are the ones who execute and experience the social-pedagogical measure of confinement determined by the Juvenile Court. Therefore, I aim at understanding how these employees attribute meaning to the actions of the adolescents with whom they constantly interact, comprehending the categories produced and/or reproduced by this professional group considering that they are responsible for creating the confined adolescents boundaries of rights and duties. Therefore, I understand the categorization logics used by these employees as sources for judgments and actions, creating an interpretation system. It is considering this context that I intend to comprehend the categories used by the employees, as well as to understand how these categories are used during the day by day of the social-pedagogical measure of confinement

O efeito de confinamento do concreto em pilares submetidos à compressão axial traz diversos benefícios ao seu comportamento estrutural, dentre os quais destacam-se o aumento na resistência à compressão axial do concreto pela ação das pressões laterais, e a melhoria da ductilidade do elemento estrutural. Em função destas vantagens, o confinamento é uma das principais técnicas de reforço de pilares de concreto. Porém, dependendo da forma da seção transversal, a eficiência do reforço pode ficar comprometida em função da distribuição da pressão de confinamento. No caso de pilares de seção circular, esta distribuição é uniforme. Já em pilares de seção quadrada e retangular, existe concentração de tensão nos cantos da seção transversal, o que, no caso de reforço por encamisamento com PRFC, pode causar a ruptura prematura da camisa, resultando num reforço ineficiente. Com o intuito de considerar as diferentes configurações da distribuição da pressão de confinamento, utiliza-se um coeficiente de forma, que em seções diferentes da circular (para a qual este coeficiente é igual à unidade), minora o valor da pressão de confinamento, o qual é utilizado na previsão da carga de ruptura do pilar reforçado. Este trabalho tem como objetivo central o estudo de vários tipos de seção transversal com o intuito de avaliar a sua influência na eficiência do reforço e da ductilidade do elemento estrutural. Para tal, foram realizadas simulações experimentais com pilares de seção transversal circular, quadrada e retangular com os cantos arredondados, elíptica e uma seção composta por semicírculos. Os resultados demonstram que uma forma de seção transversal adequada é essencial para um bom desempenho do pilar reforçado, sendo assim, as seções transversais que apresentaram os melhores resultados foram a circular, a elíptica e a composta por semicírculos / The effect of the concrete confinement in columns submitted to the axial compression brings many benefits to its structural behavior, amongst them the increase of the axial compressive strength due to the action of the lateral pressures and the improvement of the ductility. In function of these advantages, the confinement is one of the main techniques for strengthening of concrete columns. However, depending on the shape of the cross section, the efficiency of the reinforcement can be impaired by the non-uniformity of the confinement pressure distribution. In the case of circular cross section columns, this distribution is uniform. Otherwise, in square and rectangular cross section columns, there is a pressure concentration at the cross section corners. In case of CFRP jackets, the pressure concentration leads to a premature rupture of the jacket, resulting in an inefficient reinforcement. Intending to consider the different confinement pressure distributions, a shape coefficient is applied to cross sections with distinguished shape from the circular one (for which this coefficient is equal to the unit), to correct the confinement pressure value. The corrected pressure is applied in theoretical evaluations of the column’s load carrying capacity. The main objective of work is to analyze the structural behavior of strengthened concrete columns with different shape cross-sections, evaluating the influences in the efficiency of the jacketing and in the ductility of the structural element. Experimental simulations were made in columns with the following cross section shapes: circular, square and rectangular with rounded corners, elliptical and a section composed by semicircles. The results demonstrated that an adequate shape of the cross-section is essential for a good performance of the strengthened columns. The cross sections that presented the best results were the circular, the elliptical and the one composed by semicircles
