Abstract:
Literature generally involves all aspects of human life and life, events in works of fiction as well as events in everyday life, always carried by a certain character or perpetrators. The formulation of the problem in this analysis is how the characterization of Ainun figure is expository and dramatic in novel Habibie and Ainun Karya Bacharuddin Jusuf Habibie ?. The results of data analysis and discussion, In revealing the figure Ainun figure, the author uses the technique of depiction of figures proposed by Nurgiyantoro, the technique of depiction of characters in a literary work can be distinguished in two techniques, namely expository techniques and dramatic techniques, through the technique of Ainun figure expression in novel Habibie and Ainun by Bacharuddin Jusuf Habibie can be concluded that he is a figure of a very patient, while through dramatic techniques that include skillful techniques, behavioral techniques, techniques of mind and feeling, stream of consciousness techniques, reaction techniques, techniques of reactions of other figures, background and techniques of physical representation, figure Ainun is obedient and obedient to her husband, kind, responsible, has a very patient personality, he is a figure of a figure who likes peace, peace. But he had tested his loyalty to the husband that when he had to live mediocre when he was in Germany, he learned to use the maximum time so that everything can be resolved properly set the menu cheap but healthy, take care of children, husband and work. All he lived with full sincerity. Ainun always provide peace in his family with his personality. After a long time he thought to go back to work as a doctor so he could help his family's economy, but it takes recognition of UI diplomas in Germany and requires an indeterminate time process. After Ainun got back to work, Ainun was confronted with her personal problems when the children were sick and needed her to choose between work and children, based on faith, Ainun sacrificed her job as a doctor to Always be with her son and husband.

Abstract:
One of the great accomplishments of seventeenth-century culture was the development of a vocabulary by means of which dramatic characters and actions could be delineated in music. The techniques for emotional and rhetorical inflection we now take for granted are not, in fact, natural or universal: they were deliberately formulated during this period for the purposes of music theatre. Monteverdi's descriptions of how he invented the semiotics of madness for La finta pazza Licori or of war for the Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda reveal how very self-consciously he designed methods for ‘representing’ affective states.

Abstract:
Since the last decade of the twentieth century, Ho Chi Minh City has become one of the Vietnamese lively dramatic literature and theater centers. During the past twenty years, together with dramatic theater, Ho Chi Minh City’s dramatic literature has built up a professional playwriter force, providing audiences plays which reflect the conflicts between human’s life in the time of Vietnam’s reformation and integration. Besides, these plays have contributed experiences in acquiring and applying the world modern playwriting techniques to suit Vietnamese’s drama reception habits. This paper generally provides content feature (focus on conflicts) and playwriting art feature (focus on plots, characteristics, dialogue language construction and the acquirement of new art techniques in Ho Chi Minh City’s contemporary literary scripts), contributing to the evaluation and summary of Ho Chi Minh City’s dramatic literature during the past.

Abstract:
The teaching-learning techniques of BIPA (Bahasa Indonesia untuk Penutur Asing - Indonesian for Speakers of Other Languages) for language skills are oftentimes separated from that of ‘cultural’ skills. Even worse, BIPA teachers tend to devote only a little attention to students’ cultural sensitivity. Dramatic Theatre, when used appropriately, offers engaging techniques for the teaching-learning of both language and cultural skills. Dramatic theatre’s ‘production process’ is very useful in developing linguistic and cultural sensitivities to the students. The teaching-learning of BIPA using the Dramatic Theatre production process at Petra Christian University, Surabaya, Indonesia has shown that it is a promising teachnique to be developed and implemented. The students’ involvement in the process from the preparations, rehearsals, and finally performance gives them a chance to enjoy and, especially, learn the Indonesian linguistic as well as cultural nuances more or less authentically. This paper is an evaluation of BIPA through dramatic theatre at PCU. It will show how students are involved in the production process, learn Bahasa Indonesia, and grasp Indonesian culture both from the play they perform and the process of production itself. It finally gives evaluation and recomendation for further use of dramatic theatre for BIPA at PCU.

Abstract:
Interactive narratives have been used in a variety of applications, including video games, educational games, and training simulations. Maintaining engagement within such environments is an important problem, because it affects entertainment, motivation, and presence. Performance arts theorists have discussed and formalized many techniques that increase engagement and enhance dramatic content of art productions. While constructing a narrative manually, using these techniques, is acceptable for linear media, using this approach for interactive environments results in inflexible experiences due to the unpredictability of users’ actions. Few researchers attempted to develop adaptive interactive narrative experiences. However, developing a quality interactive experience is largely an art process, and many of these adaptive techniques do not encode artistic principles. This paper presents a new interactive narrative architecture designed using a set of dramatic techniques that have been formulated based on several years of training in film and theatre.

Abstract:
Dramatic improvements in experimental methods and computational techniques have revolutionized three-dimensional image reconstruction from electron micrographs (EM) of vitrified samples. Recent results include the first determination of a protein fold (for the core protein of the hepatitis B virus) by non-crystalline imaging techniques. These developments have generated interest within the crystallographic community and have led to a re-evaluation of the technique, particularly amongst those working in the field of virus structure or struggling with the phasing of large macromolecular assemblies. A simple discussion of the techniques of EM image reconstruction and its advantages and problems in terms familiar to crystallographers will hopefully allow an appreciation of the essential complementarity of the two techniques and the practical potentials for phasing applications.

Abstract:
Статья посвящена исследованию литературных источников драматургической техники комедии В. Катаева «Квадратура круга». Исследование формальных приемов в структуре произведения строится на текстуальном анализе трех комедий Плавта и комедии «Квадратура круга». Анализ сходства драматургической техники производится путем сопоставления отдельных сцен в комедиях Плавта «Клад», «Близнецы», «Пленники» и комедии В. Катаева «Квадратура круга». Автором статьи используется терминология, существующая в научном обороте, но не имеющая нормативного употребления. Слова «схема», «фигура», «элемент» являются синонимами и обозначают отдельный прием драматургической техники. Процесс текстуального сличения отдельных сцен комедий Плавта и Катаева демонстрирует очевидную общность драматургической техники. Сходство приемов драматургической техники, их количественный уровень указывает на факт заимствования Катаевым отдельных элементов из комедий римского автора. Драматургические фигуры, составляющие общность приемов в комедиях Плавта и Катаева, различны на идейно-тематическом и структурно-композиционном уровне. Глубина профессионального освоения творчества Плавта вкупе с дарованием и талантом самого Валентина Петровича способствовали феерическому успеху «Квадратуры круга» на российской и мировой сценах. Использование литературно-исторических традиций античной драматургии Катаевым является бесценным опытом и примером создания произведения высокого художественного уровня. The article is devoted to the study of literary sources of the dramatic technique of V. Kataev's Comedy «the Quadrature of the circle». The study of formal techniques in the structure of the work is based on the textual analysis of three comedies by Plautus and V. Kataev's Comedy «the Quadrature of the circle». The similarity of dramatic technique is analyzed by comparing individual scenes in Plautus 'comedies «the Treasure», «the Twins», «the Prisoners» and V. Kataev's Comedy «the Quadrature of the circle». The author of the article uses terminology that exists in scientific circulation but does not have normative use. Words: the schematic of figure element are synonymous and refer to the individual reception of dramatic technique. The process of textual comparison of individual scenes of Plautus and Kataev's comedies demonstrates an obvious similarity of dramatic technique. The similarity of the techniques of dramaturgical technique ,their quantitative level, indicates the fact that V. Kataev adopted certain elements from the comedies of the Roman author. The dramaturgical figures that make up the commonality of techniques in the comedies of Plautus and V. Kataev are different on the ideological-thematic and structural-compositional level. The depth of Kataev's professional development of Plautus ' work, combined with the talent and talent of Valentin Petrovich, contributed to the enchanting success of the circle Quadrature on the Russian and world stages. The use of literary and historical traditions of ancient drama By V. Kataev is an invaluable experience and example of creating a work of high artistic level.

Full text
Abstract:
From the 1960s onwards, Dorothy Heathcote became a highly influential figure in UK drama education. Her practice, based around unscripted, participatory dramas in which students were often guided by a teacher working ‘in role’, helped to shape the way drama is taught in schools today, particularly within the process drama approach. Influenced by a range of educational theorists and practitioners, Heathcote developed a style of educational drama that she saw as being distinct from ‘theatre’, and more concerned with experiencing drama than performing it. To this end, she developed a number of dramatic techniques, such as ‘Teacher in Role’ and ‘Mantle of the Expert’, to help students inhabit dramatic contexts and learn through the direct imagined experience of a particular place, time or problem to be solved. These techniques have much to offer language teaching, particularly when communication is the main goal. Placing students in dramatic contexts is claimed to enhance motivation and engagement and lead to more truly authentic communication than is often found in language classrooms. Using a framework based on Heathcote’s techniques, and those developed by other process drama educators, language teachers can begin to explore the many benefits drama can offer language learners.

Full text
Abstract:
The article analyses photographic discourse in contemporary Russian dramatic texts as a specific way of perceiving and constructing the reality, as a means of communication, and as a metalanguage. The conceptualization of photographic images in the dramatic text enabled the scrutiny of specific artistic ploys and photographic techniques applied. The article reveals the nature of correlation between the visual perception of a photograph incorporated in the dramatic text, the characters’ utterances and the author’s remarks. The photographic image fosters the rejection or the “appropriation” (recognition in oneself) of the Other by the characters. It also allows for the implementation of the communicative mechanisms used to create the hyperreality of the photo universum. The performative potential of the photographic discourse of the dramatic text materializes itself in such a hyperreality.

Abstract:
AI techniques and systems are pervasive to the media and entertainment industry, with application ranging from chatbots and characters to games and virtual environments. A common feature characterising these applications is given by the intent to introduce a narrative element in the user experience, often conveyed through some type of performance. In this paper, we analyse the contribution of AI techniques in the design and realization of a dramatic performance, an interactive system participated by human performers and audiences through some type of enactment. Drawing on real applications developed for innovative performances, we propose an architectural model that forms the technical platform of the system, and discuss how it can be deployed using Artificial Intelligence techniques with reference to real, experimental applications created in the last two decades.

Abstract:
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to explore a case study of a group of preservice teachers that took part in a playbuilding process as part of a drama education course at a Canadian University. The paper focusses on ten preservice teachers’ creation in original theatrical production,The Teacher Diaries: a collage of stories based on the preservice teachers’ lived experiences as teacher candidates. Through a discussion of the playbuilding process, the techniques used, and an analysis of three scenes, this paper addresses the question: How can playbuilding and performance help preservice teachers “become pedagogical”?Design/methodology/approachThe paper focusses on ten preservice teachers’ creation in original theatrical production,The Teacher Diaries: a collage of stories based on the preservice teachers’ lived experiences as teacher candidates. Through a discussion of the playbuilding process, the techniques used, and an analysis of three scenes, this paper addresses the question: How can playbuilding and performance help preservice teachers “become pedagogical”?FindingsThe primary understanding that emerged from this research was how playbuilding can be used as a holistic participatory research method in which participants conduct research, analyse, thematise, implement and disseminate data throughout the creative process.Research limitations/implicationsAs researchers of this playbuilding process, the authors have come to realise that when using playbuilding as a method for research and arts creation there is an overlapping of understanding and analysis of the research findings that is a continual part of the research process. Rather than simply collecting data, analysing it and drawing conclusions from the previously identified data, the whole process becomes a research experience. As seen above, participants were continually coming up with insights throughout the process that informed the creation, growth and change of their scenes so that they could create a final product.Practical implicationsDrawing on a case study of ten preservice teachers, and their original performance pieceThe Teacher Diaries, this paper set out to determine how the playbuilding process can be used to help preservice teachers develop pedagogically. Several scholars have already noted that creating collaborative theatre is a reflective, inquiry-based process (Belliveau, 2006; Cahill, 2006; Carteret al., 2011; Conrad, 2004; Goldstein, 2008), and that the creation and performance of live theatre allows participants to interact with audiences in ways that written material cannot (Norris, 2000, 2008).Social implicationsThroughout the playbuilding process, the preservice teachers engaged in storytelling, improvisation, reflection and dialogue. Working collaboratively, the preservice teachers were able to identify similarities in their experiences and develop a supportive community where they could share stories and resources (see Mreiwedet al., 2017 for more discussion of community development through drama).Originality/valueBecause of this, the members of Team Awesome were inspired to create a pamphlet (including tips and links to government and other online resources) to share with their peers following the performance. While this was simply one case study, the results of this study indicate that the playbuilding process has great potential for use in helping educators “become pedagogical” through collaboration, reflection, articulation of needs, community-building and the sharing of resources in preservice teacher education.

Abstract:
The chaos theory of careers emphasises continual change, the centrality and importance of chance events, the potential of minor events to have disproportionately large impacts on subsequent events, and the capacity for dramatic phase shifts in career behaviour This approach challenges traditional approaches to career counselling, assumptions about the importance of chance events, and the idea that counselling should aim to reduce career options to a rational and manageable set of logical choices. This new approach demands new techniques and tools to assist the counsellor and client. Four different techniques and exercises are outlined that are designed to assist a counsellor in applying chaos theory in practice. The techniques cover: reality testing; limits to rational decision making; using the media to illustrate non-linearity and chance events; and using forensic techniques to establish historic and contemporary patterns of influence on career behaviour.

The present study aimed to examine the ways in which drama and drama techniques and practices, as implemented in the English language classes and combined with pedagogical practices to teach and learn English conversation, can create the appropriate conditions that promote learning environments conducive for learning English conversations. The participants of this study were thirty undergraduate male and female students who had studied English at the secondary and high school levels at the public schools in Ardebil. They were classified into two groups including Control and Experimental groups. The two groups were administered a Test-Retest evaluation to measure the targeted language skills that was to be taught to them. In order to collect the necessary data, two modern plays were taught and rehearsed in classroom context and then a retest were administered after the practice of these two modern dramatic discourse in the classroom. The different data-collecting techniques were used for the current research were participant observation (direct and indirect), and interviews. After analysing the data the results showed that there was no significant improvement in English competence of the Control group but the Experimental group revealed a tremendous achievement in their abilities in English conversations through the use of dramatic discourse.

Gaining the precise control over the matter at the nanometre scale is the main leitmotif in a majority of nanoscience oriented research measurements nowadays. The availability of new advanced tools, as a nanoindentation technique, for evaluation of the mechanical properties, seems to be prerequisite for exploitation of the dramatic development in nanoscience and meeting the emerging needs of the industries in new electronic applications. The nanoindentation technique was applied to evaluate the elastic modulus and hardness values as a function of indentation depth. However, in the presented experiment the nanoscale mechanical properties of BaBi2Nb2O9 ceramics have been characterized and compared with the macroscale measurements with macroscale method with the implementation of ultrasound techniques. A draw conclusion indicates that expensive nanoscale characterisation presented here is not fully consisted with the microscale. The reasons of such state of things are widely discussed.

Abstract:
In A Dialogue Concerning Heresies, More draws upon the resources of rhetoric to deflect Reformers’ attacks against Catholic doctrine and liturgy. According to Aristotle, Cicero, Quintilian, and Erasmus, the rhetorical concepts of enargeia (vividness) and energeia (verve) enable orators to persuade and move their readers and listeners more effectively. In the Dialogue More employed techniques, tropes, and dialogic structures associated with these concepts, thereby rendering more clearly the dangers of heresies, and transforming dry Scholastic disputation into lively dramatic debate.

Abstract:
Shakespeare's Winter's Tale is a play in which theatrical spectacle triumphs over speech, as stage action obscures the incoherence of verbal representation. This paper identifies Autolycus as a composite of Jacobean anxieties about the sources of social instability, and explores his place in this dramatic process. The spectacular techniques of containment that reconcile all the other characters do not quite work on the sturdy rogue. He embodies the failure of Jacobean England's historical attempt, and the play's dramatic attempt, to assimilate those it has defined as unassimilable.

Full text
Abstract:
The scaling of transistor sizes has resulted in dramatic increase of leakage currents. The sub-threshold and gate leakages have now become a major contributor to total power dissipations. This paper presents two flip-flops based on dual-threshold CMOS and multiple leakage reduction techniques to reduce their leakage dissipations. In the DT-TG FF (Dual-Threshold Transmission Gate Flip-Flop), some transistors on non-critical paths use high-threshold devices to reduce their leakage currents, while the other transistors on critical paths use low-threshold devices to maintain performance. The MLRT FF (Multiple Leakage Reduction Technique Flip-Flop) uses P-type CMOS techniques, MTCMOS (Multi-Threshold CMOS) power-gating and dual-threshold technique to reduce both sub-threshold and gate leakage dissipations. Taken as an example, a practical sequential system realized with the two low-leakage flip-flops is demonstrated using a mode-5 × 5 × 5 counter. The simulation results show that the two flip-flops achieve considerable leakage reductions.

Abstract:
AbstractIn Hindi cinema, love songs comprise the vast majority in an industry in which almost every film contains song and dance numbers. Often incorrectly characterised as narrative interruptions, these celluloid creations contain indigenous aesthetics and self-identifying cultural values, and employ contemporary cinematic techniques which impact film song content and context. How do these cinematic techniques intensify the viewing experience and allow traditional aesthetic ideals to coexist with contemporary codes relevant to a burgeoning Indian middle class and diaspora?Beginning with an examination of traditional sources and contemporary values regarding music and emotion, I address the particularly important notion of displaying heart, often the centrepiece of thematic and dramatic tension as well as the love song soundtrack. As the primary emotional genre, I analyse the use of heart in romantic films and suggest a general typology of romantic film songs and their aesthetics, including commonly used musical motifs and codes.Finally, I compare musical, cinematic and narrative components of the Indian romantic genre with those aspects of the American film musical, particularly in relation to cultural values and ideological differences. The iconic use of a couple-centric narrative is examined in relation to Indian displays of emotion, and love song duets are contextualised through description of several pervasive cinematic techniques used to heighten the emotional impact of songs on the audience. I conclude with a focus on the relationship between the song sequence and the narrative structure, particularly how this serves to intensify the narrative flow rather than interrupt it.

University of Otago, Donghua University This article is an attempt to analyze the dramatic structure of the Mudan ting 牡丹 亭 (Peony Pavilion) as a piece of fantasy which Tang Xianzu 湯顯祖 (1550–1616) created through the utilisation of structural devices and techniques of magic tales. The particular model adopted for the textual analysis is that formulated by Vladimir Propp in Morphology of Russian Folktale.This paper starts with a comparison of Russian magic tales Propp investigated for his morphological study and Chinese zhiguai 志怪 tales which provide the prototype for the Mudan ting with a view of justifying the application of the Proppian model. The second part of this paper is devoted to a critical review of the Proppian model and method in terms of function versus non-function, tale versus move, and character versus tale / theatrical role. Further information is also given in this part as a response to challenges and criticisms this article may incur as regards the applicability of the Proppian model in inter-cultural and inter-generic studies.Part Three is a morphological analysis of the dramatic text with a focus on the main storyline revolving around the hero and heroine. In the course of textual analysis, the particular form and sequence of functions is identified, the functional scheme of each move presented, and the distribution of dramatis personae in accordance with the sphere(s) of action of characters delineated. Finally this paper concludes with a presentation of the overall dramatic structure and strategy of this play.

Abstract:
This paper presents a numerical study of the viscoelastic effects on drop deformation under two configurations of interest: steady shear flow and complex flow under gravitational effects. We use a finite element method along with Brownian dynamics simulation techniques that avoid the use of closed-form, constitutive equations for the “micro-”scale, studying the viscoelastic effects on drop deformation using an interface capturing technique. The method can be enhanced with a variance-reduced approach to the stochastic modeling, along with machine learning techniques to reconstruct the shape of the polymer stress tensor in complex problems where deformations can be dramatic. The results highlight the effects of viscoelasticity on shape, the polymer stress tensor, and flow streamlines under the analyzed configurations.

Abstract:
Embryo cryopreservation is a well established technique and is used widely for embryo banking of genetically valuable strains of mice, the transport and proliferation of farm animals and as a valuable adjunct to human in vitro fertilization (IVF). The range of methods presently used to cryopreserve human embryos has been recently reviewed. This article examines the results obtained by the established freezing techniques and developments in the new rapid cooling methods. There is a dramatic contrast in the simplicity, ease and cost between these new rapid techniques and the conventional slow cooling or equilibrium freezing methods and it is likely that the rapid freezing will replace conventional freezing by slow cooling which is presently in widespread use in IVF clinics.

Abstract:
Ants Oras’s contribution to the study of early modern English dramatic verse is of enduring value. In 1956 his article on extra monosyllables in Henry VIII gave much needed support to the view that both this play of the Shakespeare First Folio (1623) and The Two Noble Kinsmen (first published in a quarto of 1634) were works in which Shakespeare had collaborated with John Fletcher. Oras’s Pause Patterns in Elizabethan and Jacobean Drama (1960), with its huge amount of quantitative data and readily intelligible graphs, greatly enhanced understanding of how blank verse developed from the 1580s to the closing of the London theatres in 1642. Moreover, use of Oras’s techniques of analysis has continued to throw light on questions of chronology and authorship surrounding Shakespeare and his fellow playwrights. Among plays illuminated in this way have been The Revenger’s Tragedy, Pericles, Thomas of Woodstock, Sir Thomas More, and Arden of Faversham.

Abstract:
The Hollywood Golden Age was a revolutionary moment in the history of cinema and is pivotal to understanding the historical passage of a peculiar new art form –screenwriting. This early film period, from the Tens to the Sixties, was determined by key interactions between the respective forms of cinema and stage. Together, these interactions form a wider screenwriting “discourse.” There are reoccurring disputes in film scholarship over the paternity of the conventions and techniques of screenwriting. One solution is that techniques of theatre playwriting persisted extensively in the production practices of classical Hollywood cinema. Whether or not its professionals were aware of this is at the heart of this dispute. It is possible to identify the contribution of screenwriting manuals from Hollywood’s Golden Age toward the standardization of screenwriting techniques. The article aims to examine in the screenwriting manuals of this period some statements by practitioners who document the normalization and codification of the narrative structures used in screenwriting over time –in particular, the three-act structure. The validity and origin of the three-act structure are constantly debated among screenwriters. While this formula was known to the early writers of the Silent Era due to its legacy throughout centuries of playwriting and literature, it reappeared in the Seventies in the guise of a new theory. This article attempts to fill in certain gaps in the history of the theorization of screenwriting practices by juxtaposing statements found in screenwriting manuals and the statements of scholars and educators of this field. Ultimately, narrative conventions belonging to the tradition of theatre, as well as technological exigencies were integral in shaping the cinema techniques in use today.

Abstract:
Efforts to define creativity have started in the 20th century, with the emergence and spread of psychology as a modern discipline. The relationship between creativity and art education is frequently researched globally in the last twenty years, but studies on the relationship between creativity and performing arts education are few in number. Researching the relationship between creativity and dramatic writing education in context of theoretical approaches and practical techniques could develop new ideas and practical tools to be used. The current study aims to examine the usability of the Six Thinking Hats Technique, which is a creative thinking practice, in playwriting education in Turkey. The method of the study is based on a review of available literature and a case study. First, the creativity concept and creative processes were examined; then the Six Thinking Hats Technique was adopted to be implemented in composing a play-text. The study groups consisted of eight sophomore dramatic writing students who have completed their third semester in a public university in Turkey. Lastly, the participant’s opinions were analyzed with a final test. The study concludes that the Six Thinking Hats Technique can be used in group studies, genre determination and final production in playwriting education in Turkey. This technique may also be used to develop new ideas and practice strategies in intra-class group activities during playwriting education.

The present study aimed to examine the ways in which drama and drama techniques and practices, as implemented in the English language classes and combined with pedagogical practices to teach and learn English conversation, can create the appropriate conditions that promote learning environments conducive for learning English conversations. The participants of this study were thirty undergraduate male and female students who had studied English at the secondary and high school levels at the public schools in Ardebil. They were classified into two groups including Control and Experimental groups. The two groups were administered a Test-Retest evaluation to measure the targeted language skills that was to be taught to them. In order to collect the necessary data, two modern plays were taught and rehearsed in classroom context and then a retest were administered after the practice of these two modern dramatic discourse in the classroom. The different data-collecting techniques were used for the current research were participant observation (direct and indirect), and interviews. After analysing the data the results showed that there was no significant improvement in English competence of the Control group but the Experimental group revealed a tremendous achievement in their abilities in English conversations through the use of dramatic discourse.

Full text
Abstract:
Aphra Behn’s dramatic outputs are recognized for their diversity and responsiveness to trends in Restoration drama. A stylometric approach is used to investigate the linguistic dimension of Behn’s dramatic style, with a particular focus on evidence of chronological change. Quantitative analysis (most frequent words, function words, zeta) suggests that Behn’s drama falls into three periods. A qualitative analysis indicates that the periodization may reflect a change in the construction of Behn’s dramatic worlds, from an abstract psychological focus to a more grounded, interactive and social representation. The study considers the problematic dating of Behn’s tragi-comedy The Young King. Although critical opinion holds that this play was the first that Behn wrote (i.e. pre-1670), the stylometric analysis suggests that Behn heavily revised, or, indeed, penned, the drama in the mid-to-late 1670s, mid-way through her writing career. The paper demonstrates the potential for stylochronometric techniques to complement other linguistic approaches to style, and enhance our understanding of how literary writing evolves.

Abstract:
Historical facts evidently have often time provided source materials for the modern African playwright in creating his story. The committed playwright combines the fact of history, blends it with artistic ingenuity and presents a dramatic experience of a people. This combination of facts of history with fiction could be referred to as “faction”. The facts of history may include struggle for emancipation, war, famine, outbreak of a disease, political instability, fashion, terrorism, natural disaster, colonialism, imperialism, neo-colonialism, etc. It is in view of this that this paper surveys the struggle by Nigerian women during the colonial period for their emancipation out of the evils of colonialism and economic exploitation. The gallant Nigerian women of Aba in 1929, who vehemently challenged the British colonial administration of heavy tax imposition on Nigerians, have been represented in dramatic form by Emeka Nwabueze in his play The Dragon’s Funeral. This work has done a reassessment of the major characters in the play. The aim is to see how these dramatic characters in the play conform to the actual historical characters. For the purpose of dramaturgy, the playwright seems to have added some dramatic techniques; like the aesthetics of storytelling to provide a more vivid dramatic experience. The representation of historical characters in the play provides obvious evidences of the reflection of history and struggle in modern Africa drama and also emphasises the efficacy of modern African plays as viable tools for the documentation of history.

Abstract:
In this study, the blood flow was investigated involving nanoparticles through porous blood vessels in the presence of magnetic field by means of collocation and least squares techniques. Blood was assumed to be non-Newtonian fluid having nanoparticles in which different models were used to determine the viscosity of the nanofluids. Vogel’s, Reynolds, variable, and constant viscosity models were discussed by using the two aforementioned techniques. Hence, we compared our results with a numerical technique RK-4 and already existing results to show the credibility of our solutions. Further, some physical parameters and their effects are also stated in this research. Increase in the thermophoresis parameter and pressure gradient along with the decrease in the Brownian motion parameter provide a rapid change in the velocity profile, which has been disclosed by results. Additionally, a dramatic change in the velocity has been realized by using Vogel’s model.

Abstract:
Ab initioand non-ab initiophasing methods are often unable to provide phases of sufficient quality to allow the molecular interpretation of the resulting electron-density maps. Phase extension and refinement is therefore a necessary step: its success or failure can make the difference between solution and nonsolution of the crystal structure. Today phase refinement is trusted to electron-density modification (EDM) techniques, and in practice to dual-space methods which try,viasuitable constraints in direct and in reciprocal space, to generate higher quality electron-density maps. The most popular EDM approaches, denoted here as mainstream methods, are usually part of packages which assist crystallographers in all of the structure-solution steps from initial phasing to the point where the molecular model perfectly fits the known features of protein chemistry. Other phase-refinement approaches that are based on different sources of information, denoted here as out-of-mainstream methods, are not frequently employed. This paper aims to show that mainstream and out-of-mainstream methods may be combined and may lead to dramatic advances in the present state of the art. The statement is confirmed by experimental tests using molecular-replacement, SAD–MAD andab initiotechniques.

Soil moisture measurements are critical to all field studies of soil-plant-water relationships. Dependable and reliable techniques are required to provide such measurements. Neutron probes were developed more than 40 years ago and continue to be used today. They offer many advantages as a measurement technique, the most important of which is non-destructive, repetitive measurements of soil moisture. Much research has been focused on overcoming the two major limitations of neutron probes: measuring near-surface soil moisture and a smoothing of moisture data at sharp moisture discontinuities in the soil. Various techniques have been devised to overcome the first limitation and the error associated with the second is acceptable by probe users The dramatic decline in the number of articles in the scientific literature related to neutron probes during the past decade is likely an indication that neutron probe technology has matured and that neutron probes have become accepted as a reliable and dependable field technique for soil moisture measurement.

Full text
Abstract:
‘Verbatim Theatre’ has been the term utilized by Derek Paget during his extensive researches into that form of documentary drama which employs (largely or exclusively) tape-recorded material from the ‘real-life’ originals of the characters and events to which it gives dramatic shape. Though clearly indebted to sources such as the radio ballads of the 'fifties, and to the tradition which culminated in Joan Littlewood's Oh what a Lovely War, most of its practitioners acknowledge Peter Cheeseman's work at Stoke-on-Trent as the direct inspiration - in one case, as first received through the ‘Production Casebook’ on his work published in the first issue of the original Theatre Quarterly (1971). Quite simply, the form owes its present health and exciting potential to the flexibility and unobtrusiveness of the portable cassette recorder - ironically, a technological weapon against which are ranged other mass technological media such as broadcasting and the press, which tend to marginalize the concerns and emphases of popular oral history. Here, Derek Paget, who is currently completing his doctoral thesis on this subject, discusses with leading practitioners their ideas and working methods. Derek Paget teaches English and Drama at Worcester College of Higher Education, and has also had practical theatre experience ranging from community work to the West End, and from Joan Littlewood's final season at Stratford East to the King's Head, Islington.

Full text
Abstract:
Scintillators play a key role in the detection chain of several applications which rely on the use of ionizing radiation, and it is often mandatory to extract and detect the generated scintillation light as efficiently as possible. Typical inorganic scintillators do however feature a high index of refraction, which impacts light extraction efficiency in a negative way. Furthermore, several applications such as preclinical Positron Emission Tomography (PET) rely on pixelated scintillators with small pitch. In this case, applying reflectors on the crystal pixel surface, as done conventionally, can have a dramatic impact of the packing fraction and thus the overall system sensitivity. This paper presents a study on light extraction techniques, as well as combinations thereof, for two of the most used inorganic scintillators (LYSO and BGO). Novel approaches, employing Distributed Bragg Reflectors (DBRs), metal coatings, and a modified Photonic Crystal (PhC) structure, are described in detail and compared with commonly used techniques. The nanostructure of the PhC is surrounded by a hybrid organic/inorganic silica sol-gel buffer layer which ensures robustness while maintaining its performance unchanged. We observed in particular a maximum light gain of about 41% on light extraction and 21% on energy resolution for BGO, a scintillator which has gained interest in the recent past due to its prompt Cherenkov component and lower cost.
