The thermodynamic scale of inorganic crystalline metastability

The thermodynamic scale of inorganic crystalline metastability

The space of metastable materials offers promising new design opportunities for next-generation technological materials, such as complex oxides, semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, steels, and beyond. Although metastable phases are ubiquitous in both nature and technology, only a heuristic understanding of their underlying thermodynamics exists. We report a large-scale data-mining study of the Mat...

construction and validation of the translation teacher competency test and the scale of students’ perceptions of translation teachers

the major purpose of this study was to develop the translation teacher competency test (ttct) and examine its construct and predictive validity. the present study was conducted in two phases: a qualitative phase as well as a quantitative phase. in the first phase of the study, the author attempted to find out the major areas of competency required for an academic translation teacher. the second...

application of brand personality scale in automobile industry: the study of samand’s brand personality dimensions

این تحقیق شخصیت برند سمند را در ایران با استفاده از مدل پنج بعدی آکر (1997) بعنوان یک چهارچوب بطور توصیفی سنجیده است. بنابر این چهارچوب که دراصل در 42 جزء (42 ویزگی شخصیتی) ودر پنج بعد شخصیتی طراحی شده بود ودر کشورها وصنایع مختلف آزموده شده بود, پرسنامه به زبان فارسی ترجمه شده و با استفاده از روشهای ترجمه معکوس و مصاحبه عمیق با 12 متخصص ایرانی به 38 جزء کاهش یافت. و نظرسنجی ای در پنج نمایندگی ا...
