Abstract:
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) and alcohol use disorder often cooccur, yet we know little about risk processes underlying this association. We tested two mechanistic pathways linking BPD symptoms and alcohol-related problems. In the “affective pathway,” we hypothesized that BPD symptoms would be associated with alcohol-related problems through affective instability and drinking to cope. In the “sensation-seeking pathway,” we proposed that BPD symptoms would be related to alcohol-related problems through sensation seeking and drinking to enhance positive experiences. We tested a multiple mediation model using age-18 cross-sectional data from the Pittsburgh Girls Study. Results supported both pathways: BPD symptoms had an indirect effect on alcohol-related problems by (1) affective instability and coping motives (β = .03, p < .05), and (2) sensation-seeking and enhancement motives (β = .02, p < .05). These results highlight coping and enhancement drinking motives as possible mechanisms that explain co-occurrence of BPD symptoms and alcohol-related problems in young females.

Abstract:
This article deals with the aesthetic mobilization of anonymity in Argentine activist practices. Focusing on the specific intervention of El Siluetazo, the public drawing and placarding of nameless silhouettes during the mili- tary dictatorship from 1976 to 1983, anonymity will be explored as instigating an affective politics of sensation. Different from the human rights discourse on disappearance, which is concerned with politics of identification of the disappeared and the repressors, anonymity offers forms of affective relaying beyond identity. The logic of identity will be discussed in relation to a “ distribution of the sensible” that takes aesthetics of sense perception as the target of control (Rancière, 2004). Through investigating the silhouettes not as a universal signifier of disap- pearance but as an aesthetic expression potentially moving across space and time, I will unfold a media ecological conception of activist practices and their capacities of activating transtemporal forms of resistance.

Abstract:
Subjective feelings are a central feature of human life. We defined the organization and determinants of a feeling space involving 100 core feelings that ranged from cognitive and affective processes to somatic sensations and common illnesses. The feeling space was determined by a combination of basic dimension rating, similarity mapping, bodily sensation mapping, and neuroimaging meta-analysis. A total of 1,026 participants took part in online surveys where we assessed (i) for each feeling, the intensity of four hypothesized basic dimensions (mental experience, bodily sensation, emotion, and controllability), (ii) subjectively experienced similarity of the 100 feelings, and (iii) topography of bodily sensations associated with each feeling. Neural similarity between a subset of the feeling states was derived from the NeuroSynth meta-analysis database based on the data from 9,821 brain-imaging studies. All feelings were emotionally valenced and the saliency of bodily sensations correlated with the saliency of mental experiences associated with each feeling. Nonlinear dimensionality reduction revealed five feeling clusters: positive emotions, negative emotions, cognitive processes, somatic states and illnesses, and homeostatic states. Organization of the feeling space was best explained by basic dimensions of emotional valence, mental experiences, and bodily sensations. Subjectively felt similarity of feelings was associated with basic feeling dimensions and the topography of the corresponding bodily sensations. These findings reveal a map of subjective feelings that are categorical, emotional, and embodied.

Abstract:
In studies of pornography to date, feminist theorisations of looking have largely focused on issues of power, control and the gaze. Much, however, remains to be said of being impressed by images and sounds beyond conceptualisations of the gaze. This article investigates the possibilities of resonance as an analytical concept in and for addressing affective intensities in encounters with pornography and, with some reservations, with visual culture more generally. The article argues for the need of tactile concepts for tackling the force of images and our myriad ways of engaging with them – not as mere surfaces but as material entities that we are drawn to and impressed by. Rather than defining resonance as impersonal affective potentiality or force, the article addresses it as dynamic encounters between images, media technologies and the particular, historically layered sensoria of the viewing bodies. By doing so, the article explores both connections and differences between theorisations of affect and the methodological challenges that these distinctions pose.

Abstract:
Acupuncture is a therapeutic treatment that is characterised by the insertion of a needle at a particular location on the body. Acupuncture stimulation includes sensory-discriminative and affective-social touch dimensions. In this review, we discuss the role of touch during acupuncture stimulation with an emphasis on the therapeutic, sensory-discriminative and affective-social aspects. In the discriminative dimension, de qi, which is associated with needling, includes a combination of various sensations, such as heaviness, numbness, soreness and distension. Achieving the appropriate de qi sensation appears to be fundamental to the therapeutic outcome following acupuncture treatment. In the affective dimension, the acupuncture procedure typically includes gentle manual touch stimulation, which induces feelings of calm and well-being, perhaps by activating C tactile fibres. Enhanced activity of C tactile afferents may induce a ‘limbic touch’ response, resulting in emotional and hormonal reactions. Because acupuncture is a ‘therapist intensive’ and complex intervention, it is necessary to understand the role of social touch between the practitioner and patient. Both sensory-discriminative and affective-social touch aspects play an important role in the therapeutic effect of acupuncture treatment in clinical practice.

Abstract:
Augmenting/reducing of the evoked potential has been shown to be related to sensation seeking (SS) and specific clinical disorders. Buchsbaum demonstrated that patients with bipolar affective disorders (BAD) tend to be augmenters, as is the case with sensation seekers, and patients with unipolar affective disorders (UPD) tend to be reducers. In addition, he reported that prophylactic medication reduced the tendency to augment in bipolar patients. However, evidence for these relations is restricted to a few studies. This study explores whether Buchsbaum’s initial findings can be found in a naturalistic clinical setting. Acoustic evoked potentials were recorded for six levels of intensity (59, 71, 79, 88, 92, 96 dB SPL) from 24 healthy adults, 21 unipolar depressed patients, and 21 patients with BAD. Participants also completed personality questionnaires, especially the Sensation Seeking Scales Form V. Results revealed a positive correlation between SS and augmenting/reducing in healthy controls, thereby replicating earlier findings. Bipolar depressed patients showed larger P1/N1 slopes than healthy controls, when medication was statistically controlled. Unipolar depressed patients showed smaller P2 slopes, but only when medication was not controlled. Implications of these results for further research on augmenting/reducing and affective disorders and their relationship to SS are discussed

Full text
Abstract:

This thesis describes that it is possible to drive synthetic emotions of an interface agent with an electronic nose system developed at AASS. The e-Nose can be used for quality control, and the detected distortion from a known smell sensation prototype is interpreted to a 3D-representation of emotional states, which in turn points to a set of pre-defined muscle contractions. This extension of a rule based motivation system, which we call Facial Expression Driver, is incorporated to a model for sensor fusion with active perception, to provide a general design for a more complex system with additional senses. To be consistent with the biologically inspired sensor fusion model a muscle based animated facial model was chosen as a test bed for the expression of current emotion. The social agent’s facial expressions demonstrate its tolerance to the detected distortion in order to manipulate the user to restore the system to functional balance. Only a few of the known projects use chemically based sensing to drive a face in real-time, whether they are virtual characters or animatronics. This work may inspire a future android implementation of a head with electro active polymers as synthetic facial muscles.

Full text
Abstract:
Le souvenir relève d'une prédisposition à prendre en considération la présence évanescente d’une intensité mnésique, car il se présente comme un certain écart à l'égard du niveau d'espace, de temps et de signification où nous sommes établis. Après avoir analysé les pouvoirs plastiques du souvenir en nous penchant sur les pratiques artistiques, nous nous sommes proposés de montrer que l’œuvre d’art apprend à connaître, au contact de la perception, une matérialité potentielle qui rend possible une nouvelle analyse de la sensibilité. Du fait qu’elle est réglée sur une réalité tangible, l’œuvre d’art se confond souvent avec le procédé formel des matériaux qui la supportent. Et penser concrètement la matérialité, c'est-à-dire la penser non pas par la seule réflexion, mais par le sentiment également, change radicalement notre appréhension de l’œuvre.En guise d’indice discret, la sensation intensive du corps nous mène à reconnaître tous ceux qui ont contribué à transmettre l’émotion ressentie et à enrichir notre mémoire. À chaque instant, elle ne se raconte pas, mais cristallise en bloc dans le présent. L’artiste opère une présentification de son état émotionnel et explore les correspondances ou les disjonctions entre les sens, afin de se trouver dans un « rythme de la durée » qui n'existe que s'il y participe. Grâce à cette perpétuelle présentification de l'épaisseur temporelle, l’œuvre devient le véhicule du fonctionnement mnésique.Dans cette recherche, nous avons tenté d’élucider le profil de l’intégralité d’une matérialité du souvenir, en vue d’entrevoir la possibilité palpable d’un état affectif dans le cadre de différentes expériences, comme un vecteur de la réalisation artistique. Nous avons cherché à reconnaître la spécificité de cet objet d'étude et attaché une attention particulière aux « processus de création », car notre thèse a pour objet de s'interroger sur les conditions théoriques et pratiques qui rendent possible l’élaboration des problématiques du souvenir dans le domaine de l'art
The memory creates a predisposition to move towards the evanescent moments of an intense memory because it declares itself as a certain deviation related to time and space, referring to where we're located. After analyzing the powers of remembrance in terms of dealing with artistic practices, we proposed to demonstrate that the work of art correlated with perception teaches us to fully grasp a potential materiality that makes possible a new analysis of our sensitivities. Due to works of art being based on a tangible reality, it is often confused with the formal process of materials that can support them . In particular, thinking about the materiality, not by the reflection of the artist's work, but by our feeling, changes completely our apprehensions. By way of an unobtrusive indication, the intensive sensation of the body leads us to recognise all those things which have contributed to transmitting the emotions felt and to enriching our memory. The artist operates a presentification of his/her emotional state and explores the connections and the disjunctions between the senses, in order to find herself/himself in a rhythm of the duration, which only exists if she/he participates at the same time. we have probed into a profile of the materiality of memory, with a view considering the tangible possibility of an emotional state within the framework of our different experiences, as a force for artistic creation. We attempted to recognise the specificity of this study and paid particular attention to the « process of creation », because our approach starts with practical and theoretical conditions, which may be combined with issues of the memory in the field of art

Thesis: S.M. in Art, Culture and Technology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Architecture, 2019
Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 61-64).
In this thesis I discuss methods of projects that create cognitive effects that can be categorized into two situations: through sensation (outside stimulations/objective/bottom-up processing in neuroscience) or through perception (arousing background knowledge of inner mind/subjective/top-down processing in neuroscience). Similar effects can be reached through different ways. For example, to make something disappear, blending it into the environment through camouflage is changing the external stimulation, while a "lilac chaser illusion" is the result of influencing the retina and our brain. I will apply research on human sensation and perception from two perspectives: the psychological (neuroscience) realm and the phenomenological. My research mostly focuses on theories of vision, current studies on physiological information processing in visual systems, and the phenomenological theories of sensation and perception according to Kant, Hegel, Husserl, and Merleau-Ponty.
It also includes a conceptual framework for theories of perception, dreams, consciousness, imagination, and hallucination presented by Dennett, Windt, and Metzinger. I also explore case studies of artistic projects and discuss these in terms of the ways that controlling visual stimuli or influencing perception affects the ways we apprehend the visual. Practices that are famous for affecting and challenging human cognition, including light and space arts and opt arts, will be discussed. The artworks created by different artists, such as James Turrell, Ann Veronica Janssens, Richard Anuskiewicz, and Brio Gysin, will be discussed and categorized into either top-down (sensation) or bottom-up (perception) works of art based on the methodology used to affect audiences' experiences and cognition of their work.
Finally, I will also involve my own practice during past years in discovering the relationship between art and neuroscience, the outside stimulation and inside interpretation, the objectivity and subjectivity. Through this thesis, I will argue for an approach that allows for a new hermeneutics of seeing that ultimately enhances the viewer's capacity to perceive.

Abstract:
Le XVIIIe siècle n’est pas seulement le siècle de la raison, il est aussi celui où le sentiment s’impose dans l’esprit de certains philosophes pour rendre compte de la façon dont certains objets sont connus. Le moi ainsi que les valeurs morales et esthétiques sont, par excellence, des objets qui échappent à une analyse rationnelle ainsi qu’aux perceptions issues des sens externes. Ils se donnent dans cette expérience intérieure qu’est le sentiment. La particularité de celui-ci est que, alors qu’il est une impression d’ordre affectif, constituée de perceptions de plaisir et de douleur, il est amené à représenter autre chose que l’état purement subjectif de l’âme. Tout le problème est de déterminer à quel point le sentiment constitue un mode de connaissance irréductible : est-il un principe de connaissance à part entière, à côté de la sensation et de la réflexion, ou simplement la manière de connaître de celui qui, ayant développé des habitudes de penser et de sentir, a l’impression de juger de façon immédiate ? Reconnu comme fait mais n’ayant pas de fondement clairement assignable, il est sujet aux interprétations les plus contradictoires. Placé au croisement d’un courant métaphysique et d’un courant empiriste radical, il incarne une des notions qui manifestent le plus fortement la diversité des écoles qui perdurent au siècle des Lumières
The 18th century is not only the age of reason, it is also the time when the sentiment becomes very important in the mind of some philosophers to explain how a certain kind of objects are known. The self as well as the moral and esthetic values are, par excellence, objects that escape both the rational analysis and the perceptions derived from external senses. They are given in an internal experience called sentiment, whom particularity is to represent something different from the pure subjective state of mind, although it is an affective impression, made of perceptions of delight and pain. The problem is to determine in what extent the sentiment represent an irreducible way of knowing: is it a source of knowledge of its own, next to sensation and reflection, or is it just an impression one’s get of judging immediately which occults a succession of unconscious judgments? Acknowledged as a fact, but lacking obvious foundation, it is likely to receive the most contradictory interpretations. At the intersection of a metaphysical current and an empiricist one, it embodies one of the notions that exhibit the diversity of schools which remains in the Enlightenment

Full text
Abstract:
L’évaluation sensorielle en aveugle de produits de consommation conduit souvent à l’identification de groupes de préférences hétérogènes. Par exemple, des participants préfèrent les tissus doux alors que d’autres ne présentent pas cette préférence. Pour comprendre ces préférences, 9 recherches ont été conduites (N = 1128) selon une double perspective : différentielle et fonctionnelle. Une perspective différentielle a exploré systématiquement les déterminants à la fois cognitifs, affectifs et sociaux des préférences sensorielles. L’évaluation visio-tactile de textiles (échantillons de tissus pour sièges de voiture et tissus traités principalement avec des agents assouplissants) couplée à des mesures dispositionnelles a mis en lumière la valeur prédictive du construit d’Intensité Affective (Larsen, 1984). Dans une perspective fonctionnelle (i.e. approche fonctionnelle des attitudes ; Katz, 1960 ; Smith, Bruner, & White, 1956), nous avons testé l’hypothèse selon laquelle la fonction de régulation de l’éveil (Larsen, 2009) était le mécanisme motivationnel sous-tendant ces préférences. Les consommateurs qui apprécient les tissus au toucher doux vivent plus intensément leurs émotions positives et réagissent plus intensément à des stimuli provoquant des émotions négatives. Sur la base d’une approche multidimensionnelle du construit d’Intensité Affective (Bryant, Yarnold, & Grimm, 1996), nous avons discuté des déterminants motivationnels potentiellement impliqués dans les préférences de consommateurs pour les tissus doux
The blind sensory evaluation of consumer products often yields to heterogeneous clusters of preference. For instance, some participants have a preference for soft textiles whereas others do not have such a preference. To understand these preferences, 9 studies were conducted (N = 1128) according to a double approach: differential and functional. A differential approach systematically explored the cognitive, affective and social determinants of sensory preferences. The visual-tactile evaluation of fabrics (car seat fabrics and fabrics mainly treated with softener agents) coupled to dispositional measures highlighted the predictive value of the Affect Intensity construct (Larsen, 1984). Within a functional approach (i.e. function of attitudes; Katz, 1960; Smith, Bruner, & White, 1956) we tested the hypothesis that function of arousal regulation (Larsen, 2009) was the motivational mechanism underlying these preferences. Consumers liking soft textiles live more intensely their positive emotions and react more intensely to stimuli inducing negative emotions. On the basis of a multidimensional approach of the Affect Intensity construct (Bryant, Yarnold, & Grimm, 1996), we discussed the motivational determinants likely to be involved in consumer preference for soft textiles

Abstract:
In his short stories, novels, social writings, essays, and letters, London repeatedly comes face-to-face with a dilemma: how to participate in a powerful new mass culture characterized by sensation and consumption while remaining dedicated to a public sphere of reflection and critique. This essay argues that in order to address this dilemma, London develops an understanding of sensation and experience (what he sometimes called “the feels”) as a form of critical reflection. In this light, London’s stories share a vision of affective criticality with Walter Benjamin, as well as more recent theorists of the affective-based public sphere like Oscar Negt, Alexander Kluge, and Michael Warner.

This article examines the relation between paranoia and political philosophy. It suggests that internal psychological conflict affects political reality through the force of belief systems and explains that belief derives from the complex interplay between the structuralization of the inner self, its affective and developmental foundations, and what the external world produces as data and sensation. It also contends that both realms of experience, the psychological internal and the political external, infuse each other and each depends on the other.

Full text
Abstract:
An overview of the significance of emotions in mysticism during the medieval period would not be complete without an account of two other paradigms of affective arousal, namely, the suffering of Christ and the sacrifice of martyrdom. A mysticism of the passion of Christ, and of martyrdom as an imitation of the passion of Christ, emerged already in the early times of the church. In many ways, monastic asceticism follows this pattern, emphasizing acts of self-mortification, of spiritual martyrdom, and of mystical death, often invoking a psychomachy that includes the investment of the passions as well. The metamorphosis of the passions is based on practices that include the reading of the scriptures and mystical contemplation, but also liturgy and prayer. The practice of memory through reading, liturgy, and prayer that is at the center of the Christian life is for the most part also a practice of emotional stimulation. This article examines medieval mysticism, memory and prayer, spiritual sensation and emotion, negative theology and affective mysticism, and the link between the passion of Christ and the history of emotions.

Mee, Sharon Jane. The Pulse in Cinema. Edinburgh University Press, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.3366/edinburgh/9781474475846.001.0001.

Full text
Abstract:
This book builds on Jean-François Lyotard’s concept of the dispositif, Gilles Deleuze’s work on sensation and Georges Bataille’s economic theory to conceptualise a pulse in cinema. Its aim is to rethink the affective force and economy of film spectatorship better understood by Lyotard’s concept of the dispositif than the formulation of the cinematic apparatus of 1970s film theory. The dispositif recognises the distribution of the pulse – the force of intensities in the body of the spectator and in the image – in terms of an energetic exchange and expenditure. Charting prototypes of the pulse in cinema’s rhythmic forms through Étienne-Jules Marey’s protocinematic experiments from the nineteenth-century and experimental film from the twentieth-century, the book goes on to advance a theory of the pulse in an analysis of body horror films such as Georges Franju’s Le Sang des bêtes/Blood of the Beasts (1949), William Castle’s The Tingler (1959), George A. Romero’s Dawn of the Dead (1978), Lucio Fulci’s L’aldilà/The Beyond (1981), and Andrzej Żuławski’s Possession (1981). Drawing on ideas of movement, intensity and expenditure, this book argues that blood in the images of body horror films has the unseen intensity of vectors of the pulse. It contends that what the pulse communicates is affect.

Abstract:
Recent accounts of interoception have highlighted its role for self-awareness, but what gives it such a privileged status compared to other sources of information about the body, and is it actually warranted? This chapter first explores the many ways one might understand the notion of interoception, rejecting most definitions that are too liberal. It further focuses on the interoceptive feelings that we spontaneously experience, such as thirst, fatigue, or hunger, highlighting the limits of the attentional notion of interoceptive awareness in use in the experimental literature. Interoceptive feelings inform us about the welfare of the organism as a whole and their spatial principle of organization is holistic. This chapter then assesses the contribution of these feelings for the awareness of one’s body as one’s own. In brief, their role is not to fix the spatial boundaries of the body but rather to provide an affective background to our bodily sensations.

Abstract:
Dyspnoea may be defined as a subjective experience of discomfort associated with breathing. Breathing discomfort arises as a result of complex interactions between signals relayed from the upper airways, the chest wall, the lungs, and the central nervous system. Integration of this information with higher brain centres provides further processing. The final aspects of the sensation of dyspnoea are influenced by contextual, environmental, behavioural, and cognitive factors. At least three qualitatively distinct sensations have been employed to describe discomfort in breathing—air hunger, increased effort of breathing, and chest tightness. Air hunger has been shown to be associated with stimulation of chemoreceptors. Increased effort of breathing may arise in clinical conditions that impair respiratory muscle performance through abnormal mechanical loads or when respiratory muscles are weakened (neuromuscular diseases). Chest tightness is often experienced by asthmatic patients during episodes of acute bronchoconstriction. Measurement of dyspnoea is essential in order to assess it adequately and monitor response to treatment. Dyspnoea assessment may be carried out thorough a number of different scales, questionnaires, or exercise tests. Strategies in controlling dyspnoea should not focus uniquely on decreasing dyspnoea intensity. Patients may profit from interventions that decrease the unpleasantness associated with breathlessness without necessarily affecting the intensity component of the symptom.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the notion of “arousal”, an influential notion in affective science referring to the degree of an individual’s “activation” or “excitement” during an emotional state. It considers this notion specifically in relation to interoception, defined broadly as “sensitivity to stimuli arising inside the organism.” “Physiological arousal” is distinguished from “experienced arousal” and it is argued that both need to be characterized more broadly than commonly done. Physiological arousal cannot be reduced to sympathetic activation, as it involves complex interactions between multiple functionally distinct pathways within sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions of the autonomic nervous system, as well as endocrine and immune systems, and even the gut microbiota. Relatedly, experienced arousal does not reduce to the perception of changes in the body sensed by visceral afferents in response to autonomic nervous system activity but also includes humorally mediated interoceptive pathways, somatic sensations of various kinds, and “background” bodily feelings.

Abstract:
In contrast to current opinion which locates mental states including moods and emotions within our head, phenomenology regards affects as encompassing phenomena that connect body, self, and world. Based on the phenomenological approach, the chapter gives a detailed account of: (a) the feeling of being alive or vitality, (b) existential feelings, (c) affective atmospheres, (d) moods, and (e) emotions, emphasizing the embodied as well as intersubjective dimensions of affectivity. Thus, emotions are regarded as resulting from the circular interaction between affective affordances in the environment and the subject's bodily resonance, be it in the form of sensations, postures, gestures, or movement tendencies. A special section deals with the phenomena of interaffectivity, understood as the mutual empathic coupling of two embodied subjects. Psychopathological examples complete the phenomenological account of affectivity.

Abstract:
AbstractThe trigeminal nerve constitutes the largest sensory cortex representation in the brain compared to any other sensory nerve. This is likely due to the fact that the trigeminal nerve underpins our very existence, as it protects, sensorially, our senses including the organs that provide sight, smell, taste, hearing, speech and meninges protecting our brain.Neurophysiologically, our affective and limbic systems in our brains are alerted before we even set foot in the dental surgery and the patient’s brain is anticipating and aligned for pain experience. Thus, when trigeminal nerve injuries occur, which in the main are preventable, the majority of patients experience mixed symptoms including ongoing and elicited neuropathic pain, numbness and altered sensation. These neuropathic features cause significant impact on the patients’ ability to function, for example, cold allodynia prevents the patient enjoying cold foods and drinks and undertaking outdoor activities or elicited pain on touch frequently interferes with sleep. The resultant chronic symptoms and functional impedance often result in significant psychological morbidity.There is no magic bullet to resolve these sensory nerve injuries, and our specialty is beholden to prevent nerve injuries where possible. The patient must have the appropriate consent, and their expectation is managed with understanding the potential benefits and risks for their chosen interventions.Prevention and management of nerve injuries related to local anaesthesia, implants and third molar surgery are outlined in this chapter. There is insufficient capacity to go in-depth for each area, but the author has provided up to date evidence base where it exists and some strategies to minimize and manage optimally these unfortunate complications.

Abstract:
This essay reframes and reconceives gender as both a public feeling (in Cvetkovich’s sense of the term) and an affective assemblage. The latter concept, which extends the former, is designed to accommodate the multiplicity of factors, forces, processes, and agencies implicated in gender in general, but in non-normative gender in particular. The essay’s affective assemblage is eclectically composed from Deleuzoguattarian philosophy, pheonomenology, new materialisms, and affect theory, and enacted in the limit case of non-transitioning transgendered people in online communities. Gender as an affective assemblage takes a theological turn in the essay’s concluding section where it counters a territorialized reading of Christ’s body, one which seeks to exclude non-normative genders from the church. Calling for the church’s self-deterritorialization, the essay proposes a corporate body enfleshed by queer affective assemblages that would facilitate gendered exploration and discovery.

Abstract:
This essay treads the routes and traces the roots of dispossession created by the Korean War. Framing it not as the “forgotten war” but rather as the “unending war,” the essay renounces individualized theories of trauma and witnesses to the complex spatiotemporal pulls of transgenerational terror. Through contemporary acts of collective mourning, the essay, which is also an exercise in critical Christian theology, reopens the wounds of the cross to register collective rage, grief, and unending mourning as counters to US imperialism. In making a postcolonial turn to affect, the essay confronts elisions in affect theory and assumes a posture of critical melancholia as an intersubjective act of mourning of and resistance to historical trauma.

Abstract:
The importance of Human-Centered Design (HCD) drives research toward the development of new UIs (User Interfaces) in order to predict human interaction with products at the early design stages. Virtual Reality (VR) allows carrying out usability tests on virtual prototypes to investigate users’ cognitive and affective response. Application problems regard with the reproduction of synaesthesia qualities in order to make the information processing similar to the one obtained by real sensory stimulation. While visualization technologies seem to be mature enough to overcome the above mentioned limitation, tactile devices are still far from properly simulating materials properties. In this context, the present work aims at structuring and applying a systematic approach to conceive, define and develop a novel VR-based technology, called I-perTouch. The goal is to stimulate the skin mechanoreceptors to generate a meaningful tactile sensation about materials softness, friction and roughness. The system can be also integrated with imaging and sound technologies to create a multi-sensorial product experience. The preliminary architecture results from the analysis of human tactile perception and the benchmark of available simulation devices and techniques. This paper contributes to discuss current issues of existing VR-based technologies in supporting HCD applications and to address technical developments toward the creation of a reliable system for texture perception.

Abstract:
Fly by feel is a concept in which distributed sensors and actuators are integrated on an aerial system for state awareness or sensation of the environment, and make use of distributed control to increase the system maneuverability, stability and safety. Artificial hair sensors are good candidates as sensors for the fly by feel concept because they are lightweight, have low manufacturing costs and can easily be integrated on the surface of air-vehicle without affecting the flow. We investigate an application of artificial hair sensors considering its capability of measuring the local flow velocity combined with a Feedforward Artificial Neural Network to predict the aerodynamic quantities such as lift coefficient, moment coefficient, angle of attack and free-stream velocity in real-time. These quantities, when combined with the physical and unsteady aerodynamics parameters, will make a framework for designing and implementing an active controller for gust alleviation in a pitch and plunge airfoil system.

Abstract:
The brain is one of the most critical organs of the human body during life-threatening and injury sustaining accidents. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) due to mechanical insult of the head is a leading cause of death and life-long disability in the United States. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) has estimated that, on average, 1.4 million Americans sustain TBI every year, 20% of which are the result of motor vehicle-traffic accidents. Nearly 50,000 people die of TBI each year. Around 5.3 million Americans currently have long-term disabilities after sustaining a TBI. Some of these long-term disabilities are linked to functional changes affecting thinking, sensation, language and emotions [1]. Direct and indirect medical costs related to TBI amounted to an estimated $60 billion in the United States in 2000 [2]. TBIs have a deep impact on our society and require effective protective measures to curb consequent injuries and disabilities [3].

Abstract:
An attractive product successfully attracts people when it is first introduced. More importantly, it maintains people’s interest throughout its lifetime. A product’s ability to maintain attractiveness is an important factor in the design of a long-life product. Yet, what specific product qualities provide this aspect of attractiveness and what specific design attributes affect quality. People perceive product quality by the use of different sensory modalities such as vision and touch. The dominance of a particular sensory modality and perception of product quality may change over time during product use. Two aspects are involved in this type of time-series change: (1) physical changes in the product (e.g. deterioration) and (2) users’ psychological changes during their experiences with a product. In this paper, we propose an experimental methodology that can be used to quantify the effects of design characteristics in relation to certain sensory modalities on users’ appraisals of product quality and on the customers’ beliefs during continued product use. The methodology analyzes changes in effects with respect to design parameters in relation to certain sensory modalities and in relation to two aspects of change. We applied the methodology to the design of a face lotion container. Qualities perceived by both vision and touch exerted significant effects on participants’ decisions to purchase a product and continue its use. We asked 30 female participants aged between twenty and thirty years to use a sample daily for one month. Participants were required to record their opinions of the samples (online assessment). On the first day, one week, and one month later, we invited participants to visit the laboratory. During those visits, they were asked to assess 24 samples that contained different visual designs, varied surface finishes, differing amounts of lotion, and different surface conditions (offline assessment). Based on these results, we demonstrated that the significance of design factors that participants perceived by different sensory modalities qualitatively and quantitatively changed over time. In this case study of lotion container design, we discovered that the potentially significant effect of a delicate surface finish that provided comfortable tactile sensations regardless of surface conditions on quality perception during long-term product use.

Abstract:
The demand for higher productivity and tight part tolerances requires machine tools to have faster and more accurate feed drive system. As tried and tested technology, ball screw drive systems are still used in majority of machine tools due to their low cost and high stiffness. A high speed ball screw drive system natually generates more heat and results in greater positioning error, adversely affecting the accuracy of machined parts. In order to estimate the positioning error of the ball screw system and effectiveness of the liquid-cooling system, all possible heat gain-loss sources were analyzed and calculated as calculation factors. The following paper also presents degree of positioning error improvement which employed circulation liquid-cooling system and forced liquid-cooling system. Comparing the experimental results and the forcasts, it shows that sensational cooling performance and high consistency of reality and prediction are displayed.

Abstract:
As the Industrial Revolution took place and steam driven machines emerged in the 18th century, the Industrial Age began and cities became the core of industrial and populational growth. That phenomena occurred as the job opportunities and quality of life increasingly developed away from the countryside, with the arrival of electricity and inventions such as the light bulb, thanks to important people like Sir Joseph Swan and Thomas Edison. The city, therefore, can be looked in two different ways: the urban space, occupied with tangible elements, and the social environment, filled with urban practices and cohabitation. An essential matter in many disciplines, the city is a recurrent topic for researchers who seek to understand this phenomenon of human activities. The history behind the rise of the cities show tell us about the creation of urban spaces and its manifestations, functions, transformations and the complexity inherent to the various typologies in cities all over the world. The city is a scenario full of overlapping messages that characterize the accessibility and urban communication. This is defined by Nojima (1999) as the result of the interaction between social representations and the scenario where they occur. It is through the interpretation of these messages that are manifested in the urban design accessible from cities (streets, buildings, gardens, squares, furnitures), that the individual defines the elements that identify their city. This paper discovery the concepts of city and their accessibility relationships with urban practices - design of urban activity - that directly influence the implementation of urban furniture and, above all, the importance given to them by the population, with regard to its true functions (adequacy, accessibility, ergonomics, identity and others) of their uses and appropriations. It is important for the study also understand the urban furniture relation with the project of cities - is to complement the public space or the way how interferes the urban landscape. It is need to understand how society is shown in front of herself and the world itself that surrounds and what are the affective devices that make city living when connected - through the use - therefore, this is the powerfull forces of individuals and community , space practices created by the tactics of the population to allow theirs ambiance, wellness, safety and comfort, sensations often perceived by the set of elements that constitute the urban furniture of cities.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/IFDP.2016.3291
