药王·道童·雨师——宋耀州窑雨师赤松子瓷塑考辨

北京故宫藏有一件耀州窑瓷塑，被命名为“宋药王庙供像”。瓷塑为青年男子形象，赤足，双髻系蝴蝶结，弯眉圆目，面庞饱满。服饰自肩至膝下皆为草叶编缀而成，腰部系带，衣带打蝴蝶结，左手捧一葫芦形瓶，右手于胸前持一弯曲枝条。     

FOUCAULT'S ‘HALL OF MIRRORS’: AN INVESTIGATION INTO GEO‐EPISTEMOLOGY

In this article we aim to single out a part of Foucault's trihedrals of spatialization – discourses and practices, that is, technologies of power that have their spatialized frames. In order to analyse them we use the concept of a trihedral, not a triangle, because we noticed that several lines can be drawn from any angle and can form new spaces. In such a manner we are able to see their multiplication, separation and parallelisms. Using the trihedrals of spatialization we detect in Foucault's work, besides the demands for a certain (spatialized) ontology, the existence of no less significant geo‐epistemology as knowledge and discourses that are formed in spaces and as the space formed through knowledge/power/discourses. We face a polyvalent character of the angles of the trihedrals and try to avoid the labyrinth into which their multiplication pulls us. The article pays special attention to Foucault's elementary trihedral, life–work–language, in which man came to life as a being who works, speaks and reproduces in a new shape – as population. In this trihedral the angles/concepts are only seemingly separated: they overlap, mix, collide and intertwine in a game that cannot end. That is why this is only a snapshot of the many trihedrals; a possible aggregate of combinations, yet in no case coherent and homogenous. In that sense this article is not an attempt to systematize Foucault's thought but to identify one of the many possible models/matrices for understanding the meaning of his spatial turn and his analysis of power.     

Empirical Correlations of Frequency-Content Parameters of Ground Motions with Other Intensity Measures

Empirical correlations between the frequency-content parameters of earthquake ground motions and amplitude-, cumulative-, and duration-based intensity measures (IMs) are examined in this study. Three commonly used scalar frequency-content parameters are considered, namely the mean period (T_m), the average spectral period (T_avg), and the smoothed spectral predominant period (T₀). It is found that the frequency-content parameters have weakly negative correlations with high-frequency IMs such as peak ground acceleration (PGA) and spectral accelerations (SAs) at periods smaller than 0.3 s, low-to-moderate positive correlations with peak ground velocity (PGV) and SA within a period range of 0.5 s–10 s, negligible correlations with cumulative-based IMs, and weakly positive correlations (in the vicinity of 0.1–0.3) with significant durations. Simple piecewise parametric equations are proposed to fit the empirical correlations of T_m, T_avg, and T₀ with SA over the entire period range. The presented correlation results and parametric models enable the frequency-content parameters to be easily used in various applications such as ground-motion selection and vector-based probabilistic seismic hazard analysis.
