Framed in Farahzad’s (2009) critical discourse analysis (CDA) model, the present research aimed at analyzing these influences in two Persian translations of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland at micro and macro levels. To do so, the textual features at micro-level, while the constituent aspects about the translated texts at macro-level were examined. As to the micro-level analysis, it was found t...

Purpose This paper aims to examine the relationships between macro-, meso- and micro-level contextual factors that enable or inhibit contribution of product service systems (PSS) circularity. It is informed by natural resource-based view (NRBV) multi-level perspective as theoretical lenses. Design/methodology/approach A theory elaboration approach used through three in-depth case studies UK Ger...

Economic resilience is operative in three levels of macro (governments), meso (market mechanisms) and micro (individual agents/ businesses) (Chaiechi, 2022). can be achieved through either or both inherent adaptive strategies. Inherent an ordinary ability to manage a crisis, it routinely provided resource allocation. Adaptive generally the system's maintain functionality after being shocked tha...

This chapter introduces the EMMS model for gas-solid two-phase flow and the motive for this series of work. The EMMS model focuses on the mesoscale phenomenon of particle clustering, correlating it to the micro-scale of single particles and the macro-scale of the vessel operating conditions, material properties, and boundary conditions by analyzing the compromise between dominant mechanisms to ...

Classical plasticity models, being scale independent, cannot capture any size depedent behavior. A remedy is to adopt a gradient plasticity model at the sub-granular (meso) scale to account for the different micro-processes leading to the various size effects. In this contribution, we adopt, at the meso scale, the isotropic gradient plasticity model in [1] which incorporated the plasticity rota...

Growing numbers of promising visions of the future and scenarios that may lead toward building sustainable societies are being developed. At the same time, advanced technologies and research seeds that could increase the likelihood of achieving such visions are also being rigorously conceived. Even so, we face challenges and barriers in achieving these visions due to large gaps between individu...

Language is a complex adaptive system, but how does it change? For investigating this process, four diachronic Chinese word co-occurrence networks have been built based on texts that were written during the last 2,000 years. By comparing the network indicators that are associated with the hierarchical features in language networks, we learn that the hierarchy of Chinese lexical networks has ind...

This article introduces a qualitative research method called discourse tracing. Discourse tracing draws from contributions made by ethnographers, discourse critics, case study scholars, and process tracers. The approach offers new insights and an attendant language about how we engage in research designed specifically for the critical-interpretive and applied analysis of discourse. More specifi...
