Regionalism is an analytical and critical perspective which focuses on preserving special features of place and attempts to fill the vacuum in architecture. Globalization is a complex multi-stage process that causes increasing complexity of time and place, greater awareness across the global and acceleration of cross cultural interactions. Therefore, the present paper attempts to analyze global...

Object perception may involve seeing, recognition, preparation of actions, and emotional responses--functions that human brain imaging and neuropsychology suggest are localized separately. Perhaps because of this specialization, object perception is remarkably rapid and efficient. Representations of componential structure and interpolation from view-dependent images both play a part in object r...

investigations are carried out to evaluate the performance of a low heat rejection (lhr) diesel engine consisting of air gap insulated piston with 3-mm air gap, with superni (an alloy of nickel) crown and air gap insulated liner with superni insert with different operating conditions of crude jatropha oil with varied injection timing and injection pressure.  performance parameters of brake ther...

multi-part words in english language are hyphenated and hyphen is used to separate different parts. persian language consists of multi-part words as well. based on persian morphology, half-space character is needed to separate parts of multi-part words where in many cases people incorrectly use space character instead of half-space character. this common incorrectly use of space leads to some s...

in this paper, the radial breathing mode (rbm) frequencies of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) are  obtained based on the multiple-elastic thin shell model. for this purpose, mwcnt is considered as a multiple concentric elastic thin cylindrical shells, which are coupled through van der waals (vdw) forces between two adjacent tubes. lennard-jones potential is used to calculate the vdw forc...

this study investigated the effect of sequencing tasks from simple to complex along +/- reasoning demands on fluency in writing task performance of english as foreign language (efl) learners. the participants of this study included 90 intermediate efl learners from three intact class divisions at the islamic azad uni- versity, shahr-e-qods branch. they were distributed in three groups: experime...

this study investigated the impact of sequencing tasks from simple to complex along +/- reasoning demands on the fluency of writing task performance among efl learners. the participants of the study were 90 inter- mediate efl learners from three classes at islamic azad university, shahr-e-qods branch in iran. they were distributed in three groups: experimental a, experimental b, and a control g...
