always just been absolutely amazed about the amount of destruction they cause and how powerful they are. Although I have never thought of becoming a seismologist, it something I would want to learn more about. A seismologist studies seismic waves, energy waves caused by rock suddenly breaking apart within the earth or slipping of tectonic plates. There are many ways that scientists are able to study seismic ways and earthquakes. The first way is when seismologist analyze the damaged cause by an…
Simple shot/reverse shot with equal power angles because Ruth has a powerful secret on her side which we hint at in this scene. The scene was kept simple because so much happens in their conversation. Donovan and Mallory did a great job of acting with their eyes, especially when silent. I…
An Analysis of Cinematography and Sound in the Explosion Scene From ’71 (2015) Dir. Yann Demange ‘‘71’ is a film about a young soldier, Gary Hook, who gets stranded in Belfast in 1971 during the Troubles. He accidentally becomes the target for all parties involved and the complexity of the good and the bad in the Troubles become apparent. In the sequence I’ve chosen, Hook has his first glimpse of safety when he gets picked up by a young Protestant boy and taken a Loyalist pub. After mistakenly…
For my abstinence experience, I decided to give up Korean media for nine weeks. This type of media included YouTube videos involving reality shows of different popular Korean figures, Korean shows, and news involving Korean popular culture. I chose this habit because it has been an intricate part of my life for a few years now. Last year, I noticed that I appeared to have an addiction to watching Korean shows and other Korean media on YouTube. It reached a point where I was watching it almost…
The blast wave generating device developed for this project consists of two sections that are equivalent in cross sectional area to the expansion section channel of the shock tube; the front section has internal damper blades that rotate from a vertical position to a horizontal position, and the rear section is equipped with internal flow straighteners. The device is to be placed in series between the expansion section and the expansion section channel, and bolted together with the flanges of…
Unlike the East coast, the natural disaster that is most common in the West coast is earthquakes. As common as earthquakes are, there are only so much we know about the elements involved; such as fault lines. The topics discussed are what and where earthquakes occur, its history, and earthquake preparation in California. Earthquakes are known worldwide as a shaking of the ground. However, this just how people see the phenomenon where destruction follows. According to Christopher Scholz and his…
Sushil Bhandari (1997) defined vibration as a repeated movement in the normal rest position. The parameters involved with vibration are commonly amplitude or displacement and velocity or acceleration of the ground movement (Visvan, 2005). During demolition operation, vibration is normally caused by the impact of fallen structures or by the use of explosives (BS 6187:2000), which could pose detrimental effects of structural damage of adjacent premises, buried services like gas pipes, disturbance…
Cultures are traditionally studied as systems comprised of spatially co-present individuals sharing similar social practices and ideologies, with the environment they inhabit being considered the center of their traditions and beliefs. With this understanding of culture, distinction between cultures can be decided territorially through the recognition of state controlled borders. Through this understanding of culture, container theories have largely pervaded research into international…
international tourist arrival.(S. Kim, 2012). Essentially to location and site associated with Korean TV dramas. Hallyu phenomenon, or the K-wave or also called Korean Wave, refers to Korean generated popular cultural products that includes, manga, music, games, movie TV dramas, food and fashion, that made a strong penetration in the Asian Market . (“Hallyu Wave and Tourism,” 2013)but also all around the world with the involvement of his personal image. But essentially in Shout East and Est…
Have you ever seen the movement of a whip? When it is cracked it starts with small ripples at base and magnifies as the waves move towards the end. Now someone may be puzzled how in the earth that can be linked towards supply chain. The analogy is quite simple, although the consequences can be quite complex and adverse. Let’s start with an example, suppose just at the beginning of the winter season customers buy 2 moisturizer creams for the season. If there is an offer on the table,…
