since the third and fourth centuries ah, “the theory of moderation” which has greek origination and is based on aristotle's ideas in ethics, gradually entered islamic ethical literature and many scholars, such as ibnmiskawayhand khawajehnasir al-din tusi, found their ethical works on this idea. according to this theory, the virtue is complying with “the mean” in every action and avoiding t...

skopos theory ,as a functionalist approach, has made a notable switch from a lingusitic oriented to a more sociocultural concept of translation. initially proposed by vermeer, skopos theory framework has been applied by several researchers in their attempts to defend translators’ dignity and social status. yet; as far as the authors are concerned, no researcher has ever employed sociological th...

We study both the direct and the double dimensional reduction of space-like branes of Mtheory and point out some peculiarities in the process unlike their time-like counterpart. In particular, we show how starting from SM2 and SM5-brane solutions we can obtain SD2 and SNS5-brane as well as SNS1 and SD4-brane solutions of string theory by direct and double dimensional reductions respectively. In...

democray is the most importantn element in dewey’s thought. in this paper dewey’s theory on democray will be evaluated, furthermor some challenges are ascrbed to it: first, dewey has not presented any philosophical argument about his idea: “democracy is a moral ideal”. second: if it is known by a posteriori method that democracy is the best, this idea can not be generalized to future, so it cou...

a theory is presented for the dispersion relations of the nonlinear phonon-polaritons arising when phonons are coupled to the electromagnetic waves in multilayered structures of nonlinear materials. the calculations are applied to a multilayered structure consisting of a thin film surrounded by semi-infinite bounding media where each layer may have a frequency dependent dielectric function and ...

anthony giddens, a prominent social theoretician of contemporary sociology, has done extensive theoretical efforts in the last three decades. central to his debates is the theory of structuration, which was first introduced in his book constitution of society (1984). the theory, aimed at giving an end to dominance of hermeneutic theories on the one hand and structuralism and functionalism on th...

the auther first defines that a theory is an interrrelated set of definitions and propositions, put forth to anticipate and explain the phenomena by dint of recognizing the relation between factors.the developmental theory, ascientific theory based on genetic methods aims to render a new organizattioin of the data and the relevant knowledge.upon this, piaget proviedes a co-variational relation ...

A general model of the equations of generalized thermoelasticity   for an infinite space weakened by a finite linear opening Mode-I crack is solving. The material is   homogeneous and has isotropic properties of elastic half space. The crack is subjected to prescribed temperature and stress distribution. The formulation is applied to generalized thermoelasticity theories, the Lord-Şhulman...
