什么是幸福

什么叫幸福?大概没有人能说得很准确,经常与快乐混为一谈。几千年来统治者会告诉民众什么是快乐而不告诉什么是幸福。所谓幸福就是他生活的这个环境能够长期给他带来可延续性的安全感产生的一种无忧无虑的快乐感觉。那么,现在你有吗?

What is Glass?

The glass is everywhere, and it seems that we all know that shinny, transparent thing.

But what is the glass, chemically?

1. Materials Classification

Materials classification
Generally, the industry materials could be classified as:
  • Metals
  • Polymers
  • Ceramics & glasses
  • Composites
The glass is a major type industry material. But what is the difference between glass and the other materials?

2. The characteristics of glass
Difference between crystal and glass structure
  • Glass is amorphous
Amorphous means an non-crystalline solid lacks the long-range order, which is the characteristic of crystal solid. As the picture shows, the structure on the left is crystalline, and the structure on the right is an amorphous solid (glass in the picture).
The amorphous solid does NOT have a melting point, does NOT have a regular shape.
  • Glass has the glass-transition behavior
The glass transition behavior is a reversible transition in amorphous materials from a hard state to a rubber-like state. It is the characteristic of non-crystalline material. Crystals have melting point, but non-crystal doesn't. This is because the differences between the structures.
Crystals have long-range order structure, when it reaches the melting point, it requires energy to break its long-range order structure, to reach a state with irregular structures. As you can see from the figure on the left, there is a gap at melting point. The gap represents that the energy that was used to break the structure.
For non-crystals, the melting process is shown in the figure on the right. There is no melting point. There is only a so called glass transition temperature. Before the glass transition temperature, the non-crystal behaves the same with crystals. While after the glass transition temperature, the non-crystal converts to a rubber-like state directly, without a gap with heat. Because non-crystal does not have a long range order structure, so there is NOT energy required to break its structure to reach the irregular structure. In other words, the structure has always been irregular, there is not change before and after the glass transition temperature. So this behavior of non-crystals around the glass transition temperature is called glass transition behavior.

Google Tips

符号:

1. 引号 ""
把多个字或词用引号括起来,是告诉google“我要找包含与当前排序一模一样的字符串的文章”。
2. 星号 *
星号是通配符,可以代替任何字符,可以用作模糊搜索。例如搜“怎样打* 球”,google就会给出包含各种不同球类的打法的文章。
3. 减号 -
减号很容易理解,是告诉google“我不想看到包含下列字符的文章”。例如搜“怎样打*球 -篮 -乒乓 -台”,所有包含篮球、乒乓球、台球的网页都被过滤掉了。
4. 加号 +
Google通常会忽略一些词,例如and, or, what, how, why... 这些单词被google理解为可忽略的单词。如果你不想某些词被忽略掉,应该在这个词的前面加上一个“+”号。
5. 波浪号 ~
波浪号的主要功能是近似词搜索。在想要搜索的词前面加上波浪号,google就回返回包含该词以及其近义词的页面。例如:搜索 ~movie,google不仅会给出包含movie的页面,还会给出包含film,DVD,video,cinema的页面。


参数:


1. Site
Site的意思是只在限定的网站内搜索。例如:地震 site:sina.com,就是只在新浪内搜索。
2. Filetype
Filetype是我最常用的参数,用来限定搜索文档的格式。例如:how to search filetype:pdf, 则返回的结果都是pdf格式的。
3. Related
如果你喜欢某个网站,可以用related来找出更多和它相似的网站。例如你喜欢Youtube.com, 你就可以搜索related:http://www.youtube.com, google就会列出其它你可能会喜欢的网站。


注意:参数和冒号之间没有空格,冒号和冒号之后的关键词之间也不能加空格!


Note:
1. Google对大小写不敏感;
2. 所有的符号应尽量用英文输入法输入,因为有时候google不识别汉语输入法下的符号;
3. Google的搜索技巧还有很多,本文列出的只是常用的一些。
