Hannibal: A Disturbing Feast for the Senses

A feast for the senses: development and function of sensory systems.

The EMBO Workshop 'Frontiers in Sensory Development' took place in May 2011 in Barcelona. The meeting brought together a diverse group of scientists to tackle the formation and function of the sensory nervous system in all its complexity. The discussions ranged from how signalling and transcriptional networks control cell identity, architecture and behaviour, to how connectivity is established ...

developing a pattern based on speech acts and language functions for developing materials for the course “ the study of islamic texts translation”

هدف پژوهش حاضر ارائه ی الگویی بر اساس کنش گفتار و کارکرد زبان برای تدوین مطالب درس "بررسی آثار ترجمه شده ی اسلامی" می باشد. در الگوی جدید، جهت تدوین مطالب بهتر و جذاب تر، بر خلاف کتاب-های موجود، از مدل های سطوح گفتارِ آستین (1962)، گروه بندی عملکردهای گفتارِ سرل (1976) و کارکرد زبانیِ هالیدی (1978) بهره جسته شده است. برای این منظور، 57 آیه ی شریفه، به صورت تصادفی از بخش-های مختلف قرآن انتخاب گردید...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

A Disturbing Supertask

This paper examines the consistency of ω-order by means of a supertask that functions as a supertrap for the assumed existence of ω-ordered collections, which are simultaneously complete (as is required by the Actual infinity) and uncompletable (because no last element completes them). As Cantor himself proved [2], [3], ω-order is a formal consequence of assuming the existence of denumerable se...
