A program that is used to calculate the parameters of different cross-sections of cables is built by combining the method of estimating these parameters with the graphical user interface (GUI). Using this program, users can input or choose any type of cables, and calculate the parameters they need. In the future, more functions can be added to the program and the code could be switched to python or C# and develop a better GUI (Graphical User Interface).展开更多

In reading Carson McCullers＇ novel Reflections in a Golden Eye, readers can intensively feel its natural ecological properties regardless of the gothic image within it, or think the ＂image＂ refers to the relationship between human and nature, the relationship between women and nature, and the relationship between women and patriarchy. From the perspective of ecological feminism, in this paper, the ecological view of nature in the novel to criticize anthropocentrism and paternalism is explored and analyzed.展开更多
文摘This paper provides an analysis of gender binarism in Carson McCullers’novel,The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter,situated within the socio-cultural milieu of Southern America.It examines the depiction of persisting challenges posed by binary gender paradigms and the portrayal of potential emancipation within the narrative.The analysis focuses on two central characters,interpreting them as contrasting cases.One character represents the paradox inherent in the rebellious endeavors,highlighting how these actions,influenced by Phallocentrism and a broader framework of hierarchical structures,might inadvertently reinforce gender binarism.The other character exemplifies a triumphant departure from the binary gender paradigm through striving to attain a state of equilibrium marked by the harmonious coexistence of gender differences.Through this analysis,the paper reveals the author’s dual perspectives in her exploration of gender binarism using these two distinct protagonists.At last,it employs the traditional Chinese philosophical concept of“harmony in diversity”in conjunction with feminist and gender theories to elucidate the encouraged path toward emancipation from gender binarism within McCullers’narrative.
