In studying the case studies of traditional architectures according to Christopher Alexander’s theory about “the nature of order” and the fifteen fundamental properties introduced, it is important to note that the ontology of the theory is based on human’s indigenous feeling about architecture, which subsequently implies these kind of studies to be based on people’s cognitive images induced fro...

in this paper, the behavior of free vibrations and buckling of the sandwich panel with a flexible core was investigated using a new improved ‎high-order sandwich panel theory. in this theory, equations of motion were formulated based on shear stresses in the core. first-order shear deformation theory was ‎applied for the procedures. in this theory, for the first time, incompatibility problem of...

linda zagzebski presents a new kind of foundational moral theory in her exemplarist virtue theory which exemplary persons have considered as the foundation. in this theory all of the basic moral concepts such as good ends and right acts are defined by direct reference to paradigmatically good person. one of the most important consequences of this theory is that moral propositions are a posterio...

Traditional connectionist theory-reenement systems map the dependencies of a domain-speciic rule base into a neural network, and then reene this network using neural learning techniques. Most of these systems, however, lack the ability to reene their network's topology and are thus unable to add new rules to the (reformulated) rule base. Therefore , on domain theories that are lacking rules, ge...

the aim of this study includes investigation into the impact of education based on gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences (mi) on educational achievement of high school students (grade ii) in mathematics from garmsar city. the current study is of applied type in terms of nature since research is seeking for testing of some theoretical concepts in real and live situations. whereas the presen...
