Research of the Japanese Youkai Culture in Animation

[[abstract]]In recent years, the creative industry has become one of the main trends for the country development in Asia; In Japan, traditional culture is a quite popular subject in animation films. One by one, after the creative thoughts from animation artists, lots of trational legend or folk stories became the main content in animation stories. To compare with other subjects in animation, traditional legend and folk story usually obtain more approval and support by the audience. In this case, the recreation of traditional culture can bring high value and profit, and to be the main direction, in the competition of animation industry developments in Asian countries. The folk believes in Taiwan is one of the features in tradition. It ’s easy to have response from Taiwanese audience with the kind of subject. With the complexity of historical background, there is a lot of culture varieties mixed together in Taiwan; which includes Chinese, Japanese South Asia and aboriginal cultures. Lots of god and sprits legends are very brilliant, which can become good creative elements. This dissertation mainly analyses Youkai culture subject in Japanese animations, and with further discussions about how to decorate the traditional story with creativity. At last analyse the reason of succeed in Japanese Youkai animation characteristics. The research introduces and exhaustive analysis to Youkai animation, and wish can be helped in future direction and concept for Taiwan, and those countries in Asia , who are in hurry to develop animation industry.

Information and Communication Technologies and Informal Scholarly Communication: A Review of the Social Oriented Research

This article reviews and analyzes findings from research on computer mediated informal scholarly communication. Ten empirical research papers, which show the effects and influences of information & communication technologies (ICTs), or the effects of social contexts on ICTs use in informal scholarly communication, were analyzed and compared. Types of ICTs covered in those studies include e-mails, collaboratories, and electronic forums. The review shows that most of the empirical studies examined the ICTs use effects or consequences. Only a few studies examined the social shaping of ICTs and ICT uses in informal scholarly communication. Based on comparisons of the empirical findings this article summarizes the ICT use effects/consequences as identified in the studies into seven categories and discusses their implications

Humorous Field - Field to Humour = 幽默地誌 - 地致幽默

This is an experiment in spatial humour, and this assumption of humour can be applied to any urban space. Since this project starts with Lingnan University’s support of its Artist-in-Residence Program, it would seem appropriate to base the experiment around the university campus. Two straight lines were laid on the map of Tuen Mun. The lines extend to East-West through the ridge. The line to the South stretches across the valley and ends on the South coast. Two transects span a wide variety spaces and urban life in Tuen Mun. They would become the premises of this experiment. Exploring the two fixed paths, the artist observes and discovers potential humour along the route. This methodology was adapted from census data collection of marine life, in which marine biologists follow a selected transect across the sea floor and record the species of plants and sea animal encountered. 這是一個關於「空間幽默」的實驗，場所可以是任意的城市空間。 感謝嶺南大學給予藝術家駐校的機會。此實驗以大學為中心，在地圖上劃出縱橫線。縱線由北面泥圍起，途經大學、新墟街市、屯門河、蝴蝶邨等，伸延至南面海岸終。橫線由東面山脊始，途經虎地、兆康西鐵站、小坑村等，到西面山脊止。兩條直線貫穿之地大致包含了屯門社區各種空間及社群。藝術家遊走於這兩條指定路線，並嘗試運用自己的觀察及想像，發掘社區中的空間幽默。（此實驗方式效法海洋生態普查實驗：在海底拉出一條五十米長直绿，觀察和記錄所經之處的魚類品種及大小）。https://commons.ln.edu.hk/vs_artist_catalog/1019/thumbnail.jp

七家灣拆壩後之河道演變模式

This study focused on channel responses one and a half years after dam removal in the Chijiawan Creek and proposed a channel evolution model based on analyses of hydrology, morphology, and images. Channel adjustment is highly influenced by the distance between the dam and the headcut erosion. We defined nine and six stages of the channel evolution model for the upstream and downstream reach, respectively, according to the cross sections 48 m upstream and 30 m downstream from the dam. It took a couple of minutes to reach stage B (main channel migration) and one year or so to reach stage E3 (widening and continued incision). As Chijiawan Creek has not reached the quasi-equilibrium state, stage F’, we suggest that the establishment of a long-term channel evolution model is critical for in-situ monitoring.為探究七家灣溪一號壩拆壩後達到準平衡階段之河道演變模式，本研究蒐集水文、地形與影像資料，分析拆壩後一年半之河道演變情形，做為建立長期河道演變模式之基礎。七家灣溪之河道調整程度和距壩遠近與溯源侵蝕有關。本研究根據壩上游48 m 處與下游30 m 處斷面，分別定義上下游九個與六個河道演變階段。在時間尺度上，上游河道進入階段B(主河道調整) 僅需數分鐘、進入階段E3(河道拓寬並持續下切) 需1~2 年、而準平衡階段F’尚未達到，因此以此研究所建立之河道演變模式為基礎，持續監測未來七家灣溪達到準平衡階段之過程有其必要

巨額土砂匯入對和社溪河相演變之影響

Macro-sediment impulses induced by particular typhoons and rainstorms are the main reason for serious sediment disasters in the Heshe River. For example, the sediment input during Typhoon Morakot in 2009 which accounted for 95.8% of the annual sediment discharge is the most serious of these disasters. Since Typhoon Morakot, the sediment input has decreased, as there have been less serious typhoons and rainstorms, thus, transforming the river morphology from a braided river into meandering river. In addition, river bends and topographical notches restrain sediment from moving downstream and store it in these locations. These factors have indirectly increased the erosion density of the river banks by 2.5 to 10.5 times.特定之颱風及豪雨事件為和社溪集水區內巨額土砂進入河道造成相關土砂災害之主 要因素；尤以2009 年莫拉克颱風其間之輸砂量，佔該年總輸砂量之95.8％最為嚴重。然而，莫拉克颱風過後並無發生規模較大之颱風及豪雨事件，因此進入和社溪之土砂漸減，使得因土砂堆積造成之辮狀河川逐漸走向蜿蜒。此外，河川轉折點跟隘口處都會抑止土砂往下游運移並使土砂集中於此處，間接造成河岸淘刷密度增加2.5 至10.5 倍

極端水文事件土砂量對陳有蘭溪河川型態演變影響分析

The total sediment yield from the 1999 Chichi earthquake to Typhoon Morakot in 2009 in the Chenyoulan River watershed is around 158.1×106 m3. The excess sediment yield has resulted in serious sediment deposition, widening river width and river meandering in the Chenyoulan River. By comparison of DEMs from 2004 and 2010, sediment deposits are obvious at the convergences of the tributaries and the in main river. Especially apparent are the deposited depth of 2.9 m at the convergence of the Junkeng River and the main river and the deposited depth of 2.6 m at the convergence of the Shibachong River and the main river. The serious sediment deposition has also resulted in river meandering and serious scouring upstream from the convergence of the Shibachong River and the main river, and widening river width and scouring in the main channel downstream from the convergence of the Shibachong River and the main river.陳有蘭溪集水區由1999 年集集地震至2009 年莫拉克颱風約產生158.1×106 m3 土砂量，巨量土砂產出在主河段造成河段淤積、拓寬及擺盪；以2004 年及2010 年DEM 比較結果，支流匯入溪處是主要土砂堆積處，又以郡坑溪匯入處之淤積2.9 m 及十八重溪匯入處之淤積2.6m 為最；受土砂淤積影響，在十八重溪上游匯入處上游河段以河道擺盪及河岸淘刷為主，在十八重溪匯入處下游河段則以河道拓寬及主深槽刷深為主

東澳嶺崩塌地之地形演育分析

梅姬颱風 (2010) 與東北季風之共伴效應於台灣宜蘭縣蘇澳地區帶來了豐沛降雨，高累積雨量造成了台9 線蘇花公路群集性土砂災害，尤其在115.9K 上邊坡更誘發了約210 萬m3 之大規模崩塌土砂災害。本文從現地地質調查、致災機制、水文分析及遙測影像判釋等面向進行討論。由降雨-延時-頻率分析得知近年來誘發重大崩塌事件的雨量皆高於200 年回歸週期，並獲致良好判別致災雨場之I-R 圖降雨臨界線關係(Re+53.5Iave=1,146)。多時期遙測影像判釋指出東澳嶺坡頂之弧型張力裂隙仍有持續溯源發展之趨勢。裸露崩塌地不連續面方位密度分布圖之裂隙位態大致與區域地質構造位態 (N70°W) 相近，顯示本區域崩塌主要仍受地質條件主控。此外，蝕溝溯源侵蝕、剪裂帶分布及凹漥坡型亦為影響研究區崩塌地地貌變遷之重要因子，而前期地震或長延時高強度降雨則為外在促崩因子。Typhoon Megi coupled with the northeastern monsoon induced an extreme rainfall of 939 mm on the Suao area, Yilan County, in eastern Taiwan on October 21st, 2010, causing the Dong-Ao Peak landslide of 2.1 million m3 along the coastal Su-Hua Section of Highway Route 9. This study adopts a geological survey, rainfall data, satellite images, orthophotos, and high-resolution DEM based on airborne laser scanner surveys to quantify the morphological changes before and after landslide events following major rainfall events since 2010. Rainfall frequency analysis indicates the cumulative precipitation triggering landslide events is greater than the 200-year return period. In addition, both the entrainment effect of debris flow and toe erosion on the down-slope is shown to induce regressive sliding failure at the adjacent roadbed. The results suggest that geological factors such as head-cutting erosion and the concave landform shape the landform evolution of the catchment. The occurrence of landslides also depends on antecedent earthquake events and extreme intense rainfalls
