which was led by Korean technology such as Samsung products, Hallyu 2.0 blossomed from the popularity and global spread of Korean dramas and Korean pop music. Korean pop music, more widely known as K-pop, has been a driving force in the Hallyu 2.0 wave since the late 1990s. The Korean idol pop aspect of K-pop, in which performers sing and dance simultaneously, has grown into an international phenomenon, winning the hearts of countless people, both native and foreign to South Korea. These Korean…

A Helmholtz resonator is a rigid container which has an opening to the air surrounding it. A common example of a Helmholtz resonator is a bottle because it has a set volume as well as having an opening which is open to the surrounding air. By considering the Helmholtz resonator as having a neck, such as the neck of a wine bottle, the dynamics of the system may be described. When energy is introduced near the opening of the bottle, for example blowing across it, some of the energy will vibrate…

captivating beat and eye-catching dance moves of the idol groups, the number of cover groups started to increase. According to Sung Tae-Ho, a senior manager in the Korean Broadcasting System’s content business office, “It is kind of a syndrome. Asian people love to enjoy Korean stuff.”…

It soon led me into being obsessed with Korean dramas as well. I would finish a 30-episode drama in two and a half days. As Korean pop…

It is important to acknowledge that without the critical state, interesting phenomena cannot occur. The non-critical state is at equilibrium, where Gibb’s free energy is equal to zero, and there are no avalanches. Therefore, the critical state is not at equilibrium, this is only an illusion society sees as a result of the nature of self-organized critical systems. During the intermittent periods between avalanches, society cannot detect any changes, so it is assumed that nothing is happening,…

ES AT1 2017 Case Study: Christchurch Earthquake Part A: Analysis of Event Analysis of the tectonic movement or process involved The Christchurch earthquake in 2011 was a result of a transform boundary. Transform boundaries are when two separate plates slide past each other in their movement. During this process of movement, lithosphere is neither created nor destroyed. Many of these transform boundaries are found on the seafloor. This slide of plates can often lead to major earthquakes. In…

energy that is contained by waves emanating to shore from large bodies of water, such as seas or ocean coasts. There are several reasons why this energy is so promising, mainly because it is overwhelmingly abundant throughout our oceans, and because high tides, low tides, and weather patterns that would create large movements of water through natural cycles and storm surges are very predictable in their occurrences. The only question still up in the air about obtaining wave energy is if the…

1.1 Introduction to Landslide A landslide is a geological phenomenon, which includes a wide range of ground movements, such as deep or shallow failure slopes and rock falls. See figure 1.1. 1.1.1 Factors influence Landslides Landslides occur when the stability of the slope turns from the stable state to unstable state. Most of the Landslides usually cause depend on two main factors: (i) Natural Factors and (ii) Anthropogenic Factors. (USSG, 2004) (i) Natural Factors (a) Geological…
