It emphasizes the structure of texts and aims to elucidate how authors’ communicative intentions are realized through textual analysis. By examining the types and distribution of rhetorical structural relationships, one can gain insights into the central idea, coherence features, writing characteristics, and other fundamental aspects of a text. This paper employs the descriptive framework of Rhetorical Structure Theory to describe and explain the text structure of Peter Bichsel’s short story Die Tochter and reflects on the efficacy of RST in analyzing the textual structure of novels. The analysis reveals that RST can effectively dissect the central idea of individual structural paragraphs but struggles to encapsulate the overarching theme of the entire novel. Furthermore, the rhetorical structures are numerous and tightly interconnected, contributing to a strong sense of coherence. The author frequently utilizes background and explanation relationships in the narration, first establishing the context and then developing the characters, resulting in a nuanced and refined style.展开更多

文摘This work managed the extrusion strain path by designing various extrusion die cavities,successfully realizing the texture modification for the ZK60 magnesium alloy.The mechanisms involving the texture dependence on the extrusion die cavity as well as their effects on the mechanical properties were emphatically investigated.Results showed that dynamic recrystallization refined the grain size and improved the microstructure homogeneity in the three extrusion specimens,but did not produce too large microstructure differences.By comparison,significant texture differences developed owing to the various extrusion die cavities,which here were mainly reflected in the strong or weak texture components for the c-axes//TD and the c-axes//ND.Such texture differences started from the deformation texture instead of the recrystallization texture whose roles only consisted in dispersing the texture component and reducing the texture intensity.The results from the finite element analysis and the visco-plastic self-consistent model indicated that,in order to accommodate the different strain components induced by the extrusion die cavities,slip systems or tension twinning were activated differently,and this was the critical reason causing the above texture differences.One modified Hall-Petch relationship was adopted to analyze the conjoint effects of grain refinement and texture variation on the yield stress.Additionally,the quantitative results about deformation mechanism activation fractions demonstrated that the texture variations influenced the competition relationships between the twinning induced deformation and the slip dominant deformation,and the former generally produced the lower yield stress and the increasing stage of strain hardening rate,while the latter produced the higher yield stress and the continuous decline of strain hardening rate.

文摘修辞学结构论是一种专门研究语篇描写的理论,以篇章结构为研究重点,致力于通过分析语篇结构阐述作者的交际意图在语篇中是如何实现的。通过观察修辞结构关系的类别与分布状况,能够了解语篇的核心思想、连贯特性以及写作特色等基础信息。本文将采用修辞结构理论的描述框架对Peter Bichsel的短篇小说Die Tochter的语篇结构进行描述和解释,思考修辞结构理论对于该小说的语篇结构分析能力。根据分析,修辞结构理论可以分析出结构段的中心思想,但是无法把握整篇小说的主旨;修辞结构较多且连接十分紧密,连贯性较强;作者多用背景关系和解释关系进行叙述,先交代背景,再塑造人物,风格细腻。Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST) is a comprehensive set of theories dedicated to describing natural discourse. It emphasizes the structure of texts and aims to elucidate how authors’ communicative intentions are realized through textual analysis. By examining the types and distribution of rhetorical structural relationships, one can gain insights into the central idea, coherence features, writing characteristics, and other fundamental aspects of a text. This paper employs the descriptive framework of Rhetorical Structure Theory to describe and explain the text structure of Peter Bichsel’s short story Die Tochter and reflects on the efficacy of RST in analyzing the textual structure of novels. The analysis reveals that RST can effectively dissect the central idea of individual structural paragraphs but struggles to encapsulate the overarching theme of the entire novel. Furthermore, the rhetorical structures are numerous and tightly interconnected, contributing to a strong sense of coherence. The author frequently utilizes background and explanation relationships in the narration, first establishing the context and then developing the characters, resulting in a nuanced and refined style.

文摘The microstructure and mechanical properties of the Ti-5Al-5Mo-5V-1Cr-1Fe(Ti-55511)alloy under different strains were investigated through the design of step-shaped die forging.The results indicate that continuous dynamic recrystallization(CDRX)and discontinuous dynamic recrystallization(DDRX)occur in the high strain region.The orientation of the grains produced by CDRX is random and does not weaken the fiber texture.<100>-oriented grains expand gradually with increasing strain,thereby enhancing the strength of{100}texture.Significant anisotropic mechanical properties are observed in the large strain region and analyzed through in-situ tensile experiments.When the loading direction is parallel to the longitudinal(L)direction,strain concentration is observed near the dynamically recrystallized(DRXed)grains and inside grains oriented along<100>,leading to crack initiation.Furthermore,the small angle between the loading direction and the c-axis hinders the activation of prismatic and basal slip,thereby enhancing the strength.When the loading direction is parallel to the short transverse(ST)direction,cracks are initiated not only within grains oriented along<100>,but also at the grain boundaries.Regarding impact toughness,the elongatedβgrains in the L direction enhance the resistance to crack propagation.
