Abstract:
A literary analysis of the portrait of Piso Aquitanus (Gal. 4.12), a Gaul killed together with his brother in a cavalry engagement with the Usipetes and Tencteri in 55 bce. The portrait is first discussed against the literary tradition of heroic brothers in epic and in historiography. The function of the portrait is then examined in relation to the depiction of Gauls and Germans in Book Four. From this perspective, the portrayal of Piso’s courage and devotion can be seen to promote Caesar’s underlying aims of justifying, on the one hand, his harsh suppression of the barbarous Germans, and, on the other, his enlistment of “civilized” Gauls in the cause of Rome.1

Abstract:
This article deals with one particular aspect of Livy's narrative of the Gallic Sack of Rome, told in Book 5, and traditionally placed in 390 b.c.—namely the issue over the validity of the ransom agreement struck by the Romans with the Gauls. The broader context is well known—and needs only brief reiteration here. When the Gauls march on Rome, the Romans give battle at the river Allia, leading to a resounding Gallic victory. Most of the Romans flee the battlefield and then the city, except for a small group of both old and young, male and female, who hold out on the Capitoline Hill. That hill is subsequently put under siege by the Gauls. Following several months of beleaguerment, both sides are depicted as severely worn out by hunger and fighting. It is important for present purposes to stress that, when the Gauls stood at the gates and besieged the city, one of Rome's greatest heroes, Marcus Furius Camillus, was noticeably absent. Camillus was in neighbouring Ardea, some fifty miles south of Rome, training an army of Roman soldiers to challenge the Gallic invaders after his recent recall from exile and appointment to the dictatorship. But before Camillus’ return to Rome, the besieged Romans surrendered and agreed a ransom with the Gauls in order to liberate their city. The continuation of the story as given in Livy is equally well known. Camillus arrives in the middle of the ransom exchange, asking for the exchange to be stopped. Unsurprisingly, the Gauls are not keen on following Camillus’ orders, and insist on the ransom. Consequently, Camillus challenges the agreement between Romans and Gauls on a constitutional basis; the agreement was reached with a lesser magistrate after Camillus’ appointment to the dictatorship (5.49.2): cum illi renitentes pactos dicerent sese, negat eam pactionem ratam esse quae postquam ipse dictator creatus esset iniussu suo ab inferioris iuris magistratu facta esset, denuntiatque Gallis ut se ad proelium expediant.When they, resisting, said that they had come to an agreement, he [Camillus] denied that an agreement was valid which, after he himself had been made dictator, had been concluded by a magistrate of lower status without his instructions, and he announced to the Gauls that they should prepare themselves for battle.The constitutional argument has often been repeated by modern scholars. Ogilvie comments that ‘(t)he dictatorship was held to put all other magistracies into suspension.’ Feldherr notes similarly that, ‘(o)nce Camillus has been appointed dictator, his imperium supersedes that of the lesser magistrates who negotiated the surrender.’ And to explain why the Gauls nevertheless entered into negotiations in Camillus’ absence, Ross observes that ‘the Gauls, of course, could hardly have known either of Camillus’ appointment as dictator or of the fact that the dictatorship superseded all other magistracies.’

Abstract:
Abstract In the course of his famous account of the Gallic Wars, Julius Caesar breaks off and digresses for a few chapters (6.11−28) on the religious customs of the Gauls and the Germans. This paper argues that, while there may not be too much to be learned from the digression about its ostensible subjects, it gives us a unique opportunity to assess whether Caesar had a conception of a ‘religion’ as such, of an area of religious activities and ideas within different societies, which would have enabled him to write a comparison between Roman religious life, about which as pontifex maximus he knew a good deal, and those of these other societies about which he knew at least a little. The conclusion is that he has no such conception; that his account allows no sharp distinction between the religious and non-religious areas of Gallic, German or Roman life. Rather he reveals an evolutionary perspective in which the superiority of Rome over the Gauls, and of Gauls over Germans, provide the central message he succeeds, consciously or not, in conveying.

AbstractThe article challenges the widespread view that the Gallic ransom mentioned in a number of sources for the events traditionally known as the Sack of Rome in 390BCshould be understood as evidence that the Gauls did not take Rome in its entirety. The article shows in contrast that, whatever happened in the night when the geese suffered from insomnia on the Capitoline Hill, a ransom is a perfectly suitable element in a story of a Gallic take-over of Rome—hill and all; and that it cannot be taken as evidence that an alternative narrative to the successful defence of the Capitoline Hill never existed.

Abstract:
Augustine said that Rome fell frequently, all too often into “utter moral depravity,” occasionally into the hands of the city's enemies. Maybe Aeneas was to blame. He had shown poor judgment, hauling to Italy the gods that failed to save Troy. Subsequently, when the Gauls came to Rome's gates, those divine and purportedly vigilant protectors did remarkably little protecting. They later offered no resistance when Nero reduced Rome to rubble. Augustine held Aeneas's humiliations all the more demoralizing; Virgil misled citizens, suggesting that Rome would stand forever. Christians should have known better. They had it on higher authority that heaven and earth would pass away.

Abstract:
Abstract Scholarly discussions of the live burials of Gauls and Greeks in the Forum Boarium in the mid- and late Republic (attested for the years 228, 216, and 114/113 B.C.E.) replay the debate on Roman imperialism; those supporting the theory of ““defensive”” imperialism connect religious fears with military ones, while other scholars separate this ritual and the ““enemy nations”” involved in it from the actual enemies of current warfare in order to corroborate a more aggressive sense of Roman imperialism. After reviewing earlier interpretations and the problems of ancient evidence for these Roman instances of ““human sacrifice,”” I propose a new reading based on a ritual parallel, a slightly earlier Greek oracle related to purification from avenging spirits. As burials of symbolic former enemies haunting Rome, the ritual suggests an insight into the experience of constant warfare and close-contact killing by citizen-soldiers in an aggressively imperialistic state. Especially with the disappearance of captive killings in the symbolic context of aristocratic burials and the emergence of Hellenistic epic to address elite glory, the live burials could have been critical in providing psychological closure to the once-soldiers back in Rome. Remarkably, the ritual offered an outlet in the religious realm for sentiments unwelcome in the Roman army: in the larger dynamic of the military and religious spheres, the strict world of military discipline was complemented by a religious (and cultural) realm that was much more open to external influence and innovation.

Abstract:
In his panegyric of Avitus, his father-in-law, the poet Sidonius gives a vivid and often detailed picture of the career of the future emperor from his boyhood until he gained the supreme power in the West in the year 455, which he owed to his ability and accomplishments in warfare, diplomacy and administration. He also enjoyed strong support from both Goths and Gauls, and his repeated success in managing the volatility and the aspirations of the Goths is a major theme. This short note seeks to contribute to the understanding of his emergence as Augustus by proposing a new interpretation of a pivotal passage (lines 519–24), quoted below. The context can be briefly given. Sidonius has painted a graphic picture of the reaction among the Goths to the news of the Vandal capture of Rome in the year 455 (lines 441–57). In the ensuing assembly of Gothic elders Avitus (who happens to be with them at Toulouse at this moment) gives a speech that vigorously praises peace (lines 458–86), and this is favourably received. There follows a speech from the Gothic king, Theoderic II, in which he puts his own strong case for an agreement between Goths and Gauls, and seeks to persuade Avitus to fill the vacuum in Rome and Italy caused by the recent death of the emperor Petronius Maximus and take the name of Augustus (lines 489–518).

Abstract:
The mint of Republican Rome was located on the Capitol somewhere in the vicinity of the temple of Juno Moneta. This is one of the best known but perhaps worst attested pieces of topographical information concerning the Republican city of Rome. The evidence that the coins of the Roman Republic were made there is exiguous to say the least. Indeed, there are only two literary sources that explicitly site the mint at Juno Moneta's temple. The first is Livy's account of the condemnation and execution of M. Manlius Capitolinus, the hero who had previously saved the Capitol from assault by the Gauls. Livy mentions that the people passed a law to the effect that no patrician would thereafter be permitted to live on the Capitol or the Arx, for Manlius' house had stood on the site where, Livy says, now stands the aedes atque officina Monetae, the temple and the workshop of Moneta. The second is contained in the Suda (s.v. Μονήτα), in a passage to be discussed below. These are the sole threads of evidence on which the location of the mint of Republican Rome hangs. Nevertheless, despite an attempt to impugn Livy's reputation for topographical accuracy, they should suffice.

Nîmes, capitale d'un puissant peuple celtique, les Volques Arécomiques, située au carrefour de plusieurs mondes, fut gratifiée par Rome du droit latin. Celui-ci ne peut être considéré comme une mesure punitive. L'examen de situations identiques en Gaule transalpine et dans le monde romain montre que ce droit a revêtu des aspects très différents selon la période envisagée et que la colonisation de droit latin fut un élément essentiel de la romanisation de la gaule transalpine
Nimes, the capital of a powerful Celtic people, the Volcae Arecomici, the crossroads of several worlds, was endowed by Rome with the ius latii. This, however, cannot be considered as a punitive measure. On closer examination, similar situations in transalpine Gaul as well as all over the roman empire reveal that this Latin right appeared in the most varied forms according to the periods of time under study, and that the colonization by Latin right was one of the main factors of the Romanization of transalpine Gaul

Abstract:
S"appuyant sur des écrits, des inscriptions et surtout sur l'archéologie - fouilles et trésors monétaires -, l'étude de la Lyonnaise est envisagée entre 193 et 285 de notre ère. La province est intégrée au monde romain : la société, les religions, l'administration, les activités sont semblables aux autres parties occidentales de l'Empire. Le vieux fond gaulois subsiste dans la religion et dans les cadres administratifs : ciuitas, pagus et uicus. Dès 197, la Lyonnaise est au cœur des turbulences sue connaît l'Empire : compétition entre Augustes, vague d'invasions germaniques par terre et par mer, notamment en 259-260 et 274-276. Les dégâts sont constatés principalement près des fleuves et sur les côtes. La situation sociale et monétaire se dégrade ; l'usage des monnaies d'imitations se répand alors que des révoltes éclatent. Les habitants de Lyonnaise réagissent en accordant leur soutien aux empereurs gaulois, en édifiant des remparts. Aurélien rétablit l'unité et Probus bat les Germains. Le christianisme progresse et dans les cités des évolutions préfigurent les réformes de Dioclétien. Malgré les vicissitudes l'attachement au monde romain a persisté et la province se relève vite
Founded on written documents, inscriptions and mainly on archaeological findings - excavations and coins - the present study of the "Gaule Lyonnaise" covers the period ranging from 193 to 285 A. D. That province was part of the Roman world : society, religions, governement and all fields of activity were the same as those of other areas of the roman Empire. The original Gallic features subsisted in religion and administrative organisations : ciuitas, pagus and uicus. As early as 197, the "Gaule Lyonnaise" was in the heart of the turmoil taking place in the Empire, for instance competition between the Augustes, Germanic invasion waves from inland and from the sea, especially in 259-260 and 274-276. The social and monetary situation deteriorated, the use of counterfeit currency spread as rebellion burst out here and there. As a result the inhabitants of the "Gaule Lyonnaise" supported the Gallic emperors and started erecting city walls. Aurelian restored unity and Probus overcame the Germans. Christianization developed and in cities, evolutions annnounced Dioclétien's reforms. In spite of such ups and downs people remained faithful to the Roman world and the province recovered quickly

Abstract:
Students of early Roman history have been compelled to acknowledge the existence of a story, according to which, in 390 BC, the Capitol fell, like the rest of Rome, to the Gauls. Such a narrative evidently precludes the rousing of the sleeping garrison and hence the saving of the Capitol by the geese as narrated in Livy. Our earliest textual evidence does nothing to encourage acceptance of the traditional Livian version. The story of the geese is itself of a familiar and universal type and at a later stage geese and dogs were both involved in a commemorative ritual, on whose detail we are copiously and variously informed. The growth of a popular and patriotic tale could have led to this more complex pattern of growth.

Abstract:
When Pompey Conquered Jerusalem in 63 BC, the Jews of Judaea were just one among many peoples in the Levant to fall under Roman sway, but by AD 135, two centuries later, after two great revolts in AD 66–70 and AD 132–5, the Jews had been singled out for exceptional hostility: not only were they forbidden to live in their sacred city and its environs but even the name of Judaea was expunged by Rome from the political map of the region. The question on which I hope to shed some new light in this study is whether this disastrous history was the product only of Roman attitudes and the vicissitudes of international politics, or, at least in part, the product of the political and cultural self-representation of the Jews. The question is not as often posed in this fashion as might be expected, since many ancient historians simply take for granted the peculiar nature of the Jews and their nationalistic hopes and expectations. Such certainty is not wholly warranted, however, since the apparent oddness of the Jews may be something of a mirage if it is, at least in part, a product of the chance survival of so much more evidence about this provincial society than others. Writings by and about Jews in the early Roman empire were preserved in such great quantities not because Jews were especially important either culturally or politically, but because their history was, and is, of religious significance for two great religious traditions which have survived continuously since antiquity, rabbinic Judaism and Christianity. The apparently special nature of the Jews may thus reflect only our special capacity to say more about their cultural horizons and political aspirations than we can about (for instance) those of Gauls or Dacians, who also rebelled against Rome more than once in the early imperial period. One test of the hypothesis that Jews were not in fact all that strange is to try, as an exercise, to examine what would be known about the Jews if all this religious literature had not survived. We would have a very different picture of Jewish history if the only literary sources to survive from antiquity had been those written by pagan Greeks and Romans.

Abstract:
Abstract In endoscopic surgery, the surgical navigation needs to calculate the internal deformation of the soft tissue by biomechanical model which needs to determine the elastic properties and boundary conditions. However, these information cannot be obtained accurately in a real operation scenario. For example, only a limited portion of a liver surface can be observed in a hepatic surgery under endoscope while its elastic properties remain unknown. In addition, simple boundary conditions such as fixed constraints and free-force constraints are not physically adequate to simulate the elastic effect of ligaments attached to the liver. Biomechanical models of the soft tissue have been thoroughly studied in recent years. In these studies, boundary conditions play an important role in identification of elastic properties for mechanical model based methods. But they rarely combine these unknown conditions together to construct the model, and instead set boundary conditions or elastic properties as known for simplification. In this paper, we present a novel method to identify the Young’s modulus and equivalent spring constraint boundary conditions of a partially observed soft object with incomplete boundary conditions. The spring constraint boundary condition is applied to alternate the conventional displacement boundary conditions (e.g. free constraint and fixed constraint) and an inverse algorithm based on the standard finite element method (FEM) and Gauss-Newton (GN) method is developed, which takes external forces and displacements of observable nodes as inputs. A series of numerical simulation experiments are implemented and the analysis of simulation results show the feasibility of the proposed method.

Abstract:
The accurate discharge measurement of single pump in low head and large discharge pump stations has been considered as a difficult problem for a long time. Recently, with the completion of some pump stations of South-to-North Water Transfer Project in China, many low head and large discharge pump stations completed with gradually contracted inlet conduit need high accuracy of discharge measurement which is necessary to optimize the operation of pump units, sum up the total discharge and get the efficiency of the pump stations. In this literature, problems came across from traditional measurement methods of discharge are given. These methods are including five-hole probe discharge measurement, discharge measurement using current meter and differential pressure transmitter measurement. Among all these methods, the measurement principle, performance, installation and application of 7510P portable ultrasonic flow-meter with multi-path ultrasonic are specially introduced. Generally speaking, the low head pump stations usually have the characteristic of irregular multi-culvert construction with short straight conduit and gradually contracted cross-sections along the flow direction, so the accurate discharge measurement is very difficult to process. By installing multi paths in conduit, adopting technique on installation elevation of international regulations on Gauss integration method which is also employed in calculating flow, the flow can be got. The number of acoustic paths is determined by conduit construction and hydraulic conditions. The arrangements of acoustic paths are placed in the mode cross-link. Then the discharge can be calculated through integrating the obtained velocity in corresponding cross-section. The installation of 7510P portable ultrasonic flow-meter mainly comprises three processes, including the installation of transducers, the arrangement of cables and its connection with flow-meter. Combining the measured discharge in Jiangdu No.2 Pump Station of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project in China, following conclusions are presented: it has well stability, good repeatability of measurement results, high measurement accuracy with the error around ±0.30%, high reliability and the flow-meter fits a wide range of discharge well. The successful application of 7510P ultrasonic flow-meter accumulates useful experience for discharge measurement of single unit of low head and large discharge pump stations and add a new method of accurate field discharge measurement of low head pump stations, meanwhile, it will play a constructive role in the design, construction and management of pump stations.

Abstract:
Abstract With the development of new oil formations and with the advent of new directions in the global energy sector, new requirements for materials for well construction appear. With the close attention to environmental footprint and unique properties, one of the promising materials for well cementing is geopolymers. Being a relatively new material, they are characterized by low carbon footprint, high acid resistance and attractive mechanical properties. This article is aimed at developing new geopolymer slurries for the oil industry, their characterization and field implementation analysis. With the ultimate goal of developing a methodology for the analysis of raw materials and designing the geopolymer slurries, studies were carried out on various raw materials, including different types of fly ash. Based on the data obtained and rapid screening methods, an approach was developed to formulate a geopolymer composition recipe. Since not all cement additives directly work in geopolymers, special attention was paid to control the thickening time and fluid loss. The methods of XRD, XRF, ICP-MS, density, particle size distribution measurements as well as API methods of cement testing were used to understand the composition and structure of the materials obtained, their properties and design limitations. A special approach was applied to study the acid resistance of the materials obtained and to compare with conventional cements and slags. Using one of the most common sources of aluminosilicate, fly ash, formulations with a density of 13.5 – 16.5 lbm/galUS were tested. A sensitivity analysis showed that the type of activator and its composition play a critical role both in the mechanical properties of the final product and in the solidification time and rheological properties of the product. The use of several samples of fly ash, significantly different in composition, made it possible to formulate the basic rules for the design of geopolymers for the oil industry. An analysis was also carried out on 10 different agents for filtration and 7 moderators to find a working formulation for the temperature range up to 100°C. The samples were systematically examined for changes in composition, strength, and acid resistance was previously measured. Despite the emergence of examples of the use of geopolymers in the construction industry and examples of laboratory testing of geopolymers for the oil industry, to the best of our knowledge, there has been no evidence of pumping geopolymers into a well. Our work is an attempt to develop an adaptation of the construction industry knowledge to the unique high pressure, high temperature conditions of the oil and gas industry. The ambitions of this work go far beyond the laboratory tests and involve yard test experiments.
