ICSNS23-SSN-7: Fluid Flow

Objectives and Motivation:

Scientific research in fluid mechanics is experiencing extraordinary growth in the field of aeronautics and the hydraulic industry. it is the branch of physics that studies the flow of fluids, that is to say liquids and gases when they are subjected to forces or constraints. It is currently extended to solid flows such as glaciers or the Earth's mantle. Indeed, the importance of the principles of fluid mechanics left common inventions, such as the transfer of water by channels, maritime and air transport, hydraulics, thermal and pneumatic machines, solutions to cavitation problems or hammer d water in pipes, hydraulic and pneumatic transmissions. The field of choice for visualization methods has long remained that of the large wind tunnels used for research in Aeronautics. The demystification of the laser and the rapid expansion of computer image processing methods have democratized this type of analysis, even if the use of a medium-power laser (a few watts) is still a relatively expensive operation requiring a few optical knowledge. From now on, any industrial field which implements a sufficiently transparent liquid or gaseous flow is theoretically concerned, provided however that the phenomenon studied takes place in a free atmosphere or is confined in an equally transparent structure.
This session will allow young researchers to communicate on their latest work in the form of a poster or oral and will allow an international scientific exchange on the technical and educational point.

ICSNS23-SSN-10: Extra-linguistic Elements in the Translation Process:
re-segmentation and re-paragraphing as examples


Objectives and motivations

Translation entails several processes, the main are source text understanding, analysis and re-expression in a target language before writing the translated text.
Translation theories focus mostly on the analysis and re-expression of words and idiomatic expressions, but very few studies include the analysis of extra-linguistic elements in the written text and their re-expression in a target language such as text layout, punctuation marks and paragraphs. One of the reasons of this inclusion is that these elements are considered international. In other words, most languages use the same marks for sentence segmentation (punctuation marks), and for paragraphing (alinea or line spacing). These elements formally share the same functions with very few differences (for example, differences in the use of quotation marks between English and Arabic, or the different functions of a semicolon between languages). Nevertheless, when observing translations of books and documents, linguists do notice a difference in sentence and in paragraph segmentation between the original and the translated text.

The study and the theorization of extra-linguistic elements in the translation process is multidisciplinary. Their analysis and the understanding of re-segmentation and re-paragraphing of the original text is a task for linguists and text grammarians, but also cognitive scientists in order to understand the relationship between segmentation and text readability. Since text readability and text coherence are not necessarily fixed by linguistic rules, but rather by norms, research based on this topic remain very few and translation theories, even those mentioning textual linguistics in translation, tend to exclude them.
