  • Chuonnasuan (Meng Jin Fu)
    Chuonnasuan (Meng Jin Fu) The Last Shaman of the Oroqen of Northeast China* (Published in the Journal of Korean Religions, 2004, 6:135-162) Richard Noll** Kun Shi*** In the 17th Century a Dutch explorer in Siberia witnessed something terrifying that only a handful of Europeans had ever seen before. During a visit to an encampment of nomadic tribal people whom the Russians generally referred to as the Tungusy, Nicholas Witsen reported being horrified by the satanic nocturnal dancing, drumming, leaping and screaming of a Priest of the Devil adorned in a furry costume that made him seem half-human, half-animal. This devil-priest whom Witsen said the Tungus people called a Schaman was performing a healing ritual for a sick member of the tribe. Witsen is given credit today for introducing the word shaman into Western culture, though earlier Russian explorers had already encountered and used the Russified version of the term (Znamenski 2003). In his 1692 book, Noord en Oost Tartaryen, Witsen also included an illustration of the Tungus Priest of the Devil as a monstrous amalgam of man and beast in an image of evil familiar to 17th- century Europeans: the lycanthrope, or werewolf. 1 This famous image was the very first representation of a Siberian shaman to appear in any European publication, and it has haunted the imagination of the world for three centuries. Indeed, the word shaman is itself derived from the Tungus saman/xaman, though the origin of this word and its indigenous meanings among the Tungus are still less than clear (Janhunen 1986).

  • Experimental Studies on Low Temperature Cracking
    Development of a Hi-Soft Asphalt Pavement for Cold Regions X. Wang Heilongjiang Institute of Highways and Transport Research,Harbin, Heilongjiang.,P.R. China J. Ji Heilongjiang Roads Administration, Harbin, P.R. China M. Wang Heilongjiang College of Engineering, Harbin, P.R. China C. Chang & X. Gao Heilongjiang Roads Administration, Harbin, P.R. China ABSTRACT: Through structural evaluation and performance prediction, a new type of asphalt pavement was developed, based on 3 years of laboratory and in-situ tests. It is named a Hi-soft Asphalt Pavement, HIHSA in short due to its characteristics of being more flexible, and more adaptable to deformation and bearing capacity defects of the roads, etc. As the recent research findings from a research project financed by the Ministry of Communications, P.R. CHINA, HIHSA is more suitable for low volume roads in cold regions. During the development, the researchers highlights the use of local materials such as the naturally crushed stone accumulated in mountain slope, the river gravels and others, to the largest extent for wearing course, base-course and subgrade. And due to no need to heat at high temperatures for both aggregates and binders comparing with hot–mix asphalt, less low temperature cracking, easy recycling and maintenance, HIHSA is also very cost-effective. 11 different kinds of pavement materials and structures were chosen for the test road, which is located in the northern-most China’s Daxing-anling Region. According to in-situ observations and experiments on bearing capacity, frost heave, cracks and other defects, and others, in connection with lab tests and structural calculation and analysis, Specifications for HIHSA Pavements’ Design, Construction and Quality Control were worked out for further wide application in other northern and western provinces and areas.
