Listening to Colonial Disruption: Sound, Silence, and Cultural Memory in the Works of Chinua Achebe
Abstract: This article examines the significance of sound and silence in the fiction of Chinua Achebe,arguing that auditory experience functions as a crucial medium through which cultural memory,identity, and resistance are represented. Although Achebe’s novels have been extensively studied in relation to colonialism, nationalism, and language politics, comparatively little attention has been paid to their acoustic dimensions. Drawing on postcolonial theory, oral tradition studies, and cultural memory studies, this paper investigates …

Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of Non-linear Vibration Response of an IPMC Actuator Subjected to Alternating Electric Potentialf
Abstract: The precise predication of stable and unstable zone for an applied excitation voltage and frequency is of importance in many micromechanical systems utilizing ionic polymer metal composite (IPMC) as the actuator. A linear dynamic model thus will no longer be valid for IPMC actuator having low thickness and thus more flexible. In this article, non-linear vibration characteristics of a silver (Ag) based IPMC actuator is studied under alternating electric potential …
