Levinas, as a philosopher who has a concern about the “Other", believes that there is no subject that needs to be known, and the other is "Self" in advance and is touched rather t...
متن کاملSize Effect on Free Transverse Vibration of Cracked Nano-beams using Couple Stress Theory
In this paper, the transverse vibration of cracked nano-beam has been studied based on modified couple stress theory. Crack is modeled by a rotational spring that creates a discontinuity. Frequency equations of cracked nano-beam with some typical boundary conditions are derived and the frequency parameter for different crack positions, crack parameter and length scale parameters value are calcu...
متن کاملThe Dialogical Jung: Otherness within the Self
This paper explores dialogical currents in Jung's analytical psychology, with reference to contemporary theories of the dialogical self. The dialogical self is a notion that has gained increasing currency in psychology since the 1990s, in response to the limitations of traditional notions of the self, based on monological, encapsulated consciousness.

Ta’aruf increases love and unity, as it decreases violence and enmity. Knowing one another occurs in several ways. One way to know others is to love the same thing that they do. This means that several people will love a similar spiritual being. Fr...
متن کاملDesigning Stochastic Cell Formation Problem Using Queuing Theory
This paper presents a new nonlinear mathematical model to solve a cell formation problem which assumes that processing time and inter-arrival time of parts are random variables. In this research, cells are defined as a queue system which will be optimized via queuing theory. In this queue system, each machine is assumed as a server and each part as a customer. The grouping of machines and parts...
