In her article "Rethinking Theatrical Images of the New Woman in China's Republican Era" Li Guo analyses the multivalent representations of the New Woman and posits that they encompass a broad array of blended feminine identities following the introduction of Western literary and cultural trends into Chinese culture. The tensions between ideological discourses about nation, gender, and politics...

Surface rendering or point location on a surface can easier be accomplished in an implicit rather than parametric representation This observation has been the key motivation for developing piecewise algebraic splines In particular Dahmen and Guo used triangular segments of quadrics to build tangent plane continuous surfaces interpolating the vertices of a trian gular net with prescribed normals...

The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has emerged as a popular approach to simulate complex non-Newtonian fluid mechanics problems, such those involving viscoelastic fluids. In these cases, the LBM solver often requires modelling additional non-linear and non-ideal hydrodynamic contributions flow resulting from addition of polymer molecules. These contributions, commonly referred feedback, are eit...

The free-energy lattice Boltzmann (LB) model is one of the major multiphase models in LB community. present study focused on a class which divergence thermodynamic pressure tensor or its equivalent form expressed by chemical potential incorporated into equation via forcing term. Although this may be thermodynamically consistent at continuum level, it suffers from inconsistency discrete level ow...

We confirm several conjectures of Guo, Jouhet and Zeng concerning the factors of alternative binomials sums.

Intervals of the parameter λ are determined for which there exist positive solutions for the system of nonlinear differential equations, u(n) + λa(t)f(v) = 0, v(n)+λb(t)g(u) = 0, for 0 < t < 1, and satisfying three-point nonlocal boundary conditions, u(0) = 0, u(0) = 0, . . . , u(n−2)(0) = 0, u(1) = αu(η), v(0) = 0, v(0) = 0, . . . , v(n−2)(0) = 0, v(1) = αv(η). A Guo-Krasnosel’skii fixed point...
