the search for the self in becketts theatre: waiting for godot and endgame

this thesis is based upon the works of samuel beckett. one of the greatest writers of contemporary literature. here, i have tried to focus on one of the main themes in becketts works: the search for the real "me" or the real self, which is not only a problem to be solved for beckett man but also for each of us. i have tried to show becketts techniques in approaching this unattainable goal, base...

ruby of the sky

in a profoundly impressive verse in shahnameh, sky is likened to red ruby. the present paper is attempted to probe into the background of the conventional belief regarding the relationship between sky and stone, for the semantic structure of the verse is composed in such a way that it is not possible to consider this relationship as being a conceptualistic viewpoint so that one may establish so...

the algorithm for solving the inverse numerical range problem

برد عددی ماتریس مربعی a را با w(a) نشان داده و به این صورت تعریف می کنیم w(a)={x8ax:x ?s1} ، که در آن s1 گوی واحد است. در سال 2009، راسل کاردن مساله برد عددی معکوس را به این صورت مطرح کرده است : برای نقطه z?w(a)، بردار x?s1 را به گونه ای می یابیم که z=x*ax، در این پایان نامه ، الگوریتمی برای حل مساله برد عددی معکوس ارانه می دهیم.

Reaching for the Stars

Reaching the betz limit experimentally and numerically

The Betz theory expresses that no horizontal axis wind turbine can extract more than 16/27 (59.3%) of the kinetic energy of the wind. The factor 16/27 (0.593) is known as the Betz limit. Horizontal Axis wind turbine designers try to improve the power performance to reach the Betz limit. Modern operational wind turbines achieve at peak 75% to 80% of the Betz limit. In 1919, Albert Betz used an a...
