Spinoza’s Theological-Political Treatise in Iran by Reza Najafzadeh

“…The translation of TTP by Ali Ferdowsi in Iran is a good endeavor in itself, but there are also criticisms. For several reasons, Ferdowsi’s translation cannot be considered the end of the road: abstruse and unfamiliar language, unequal equivalents, misplacement of some sentences and words, and especially exclusive reliance on Silverthorne-Israel translation and lack of direct reference to Latin and other versions of this treatise can be enumerated as the pitfalls.…”

You Are Not Here: Sartre’s Phenomenological Ontology and the Architecture of Absence by Susan Herrington

“…These forms of consciousness are drawn from his major phenomenological studies regarding the imagination, Being and Nothingness: An Essay on Phenomenological Ontology (1943; 1956), The Imaginary (1940; 2004), and Critique of Dialectical Reason (1960; 1976). Examples of absence include in-situ memorial structures that literally provide the space for negation, sites of religious veneration that render the place of nothingness, and spontaneous memorials that serve as the location for being (pour-soi, en-soi, and pour-autrui). …”

The Possibility and Utility of Religious Science in Nasr’s Discourse of Traditionalism by Mohammadreza Khakigharamaleki

“…The study discuses Professor Seyed Hossein Nasr’s idea of traditionalism; a discourse of traditionalism that seeks to resurrect the divine science relied on divine tradition, perennial philosophy, and intuitive reason. In the negative dimension, acknowledging cognitive, moral, and environmental crises caused by modern sciences and their inefficiency as well, made him criticize these sciences and emphasize a return to the scientific tradition and philosophic heritage of the past. …”

The interface of real world, lexicalization and conceptualization on the example of the Contact Sense of the German preposition an (on, at) and its Polish Spanish and English cou... by Jolanta Mazurkiewicz-Sokołowska

“…The attempt to show what happens step by step when conceptualizing a real spatial relation and its linguistic expression fixed in the lexicalization pattern is motivated by the finding that the difficulty with clear determination and separation of the context information from the information actually creating the meaning is one of the reasons why studies on the cognitive aspects of the semantics of prepositions have been abandoned over time. …”

Research and application of new method based on MDT intelligent analysis of LTE radio interference by Qizhu ZHONG, Xiuquan WU, Yaoman LUO

“…Aiming at the traditional LTE (long term evolution) wireless interference judgment analysis method has insufficient user dimension data,insufficient correlation of quality reasons,and too much dependence on manual analysis.A new method based on MDT (minimized drive test) technology for intelligent analysis of LTE radio interference was proposed.Firstly,the user’s wireless quality data and latitude and longitude information were collected by using MDT and MR (measurement report),and then DBSCAN (density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise) and adaptive clustering algorithm were used to collect the wireless coverage indicators and the latitude and longitude and other data were used for cluster analysis.Finally,the clustered data was imported into the self-built wireless interference judgment model,and the interference type was analyzed to realize the intelligent analysis of LTE wireless interference.Compared with the traditional interference analysis method,the proposed method can avoid the complicated road test process and improve the accuracy of the analysis.Data acquisition clustering and model analysis experiments show that the new method improves the efficiency and location accuracy of data collection,and effectively reduces the time of manual investment while the results are more accurate.…”

OUTSIDE REARVIEW MIRROR PANORAMIC CAMERA POSITION ON THE AERODYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS OF IMPACT STUDY by TONG GaoPeng, GAN Wei, LI ZhiWei, LIN Hui, WANG ZhiFeng

“…In order to reduce the influence of the panorama camera on the aerodynamic noise of the vehicle,the exterior flow field and sound field analysis are carried out on the rearview mirror of three different lens placement positions.The calculated results are in good agreement with the experimental data,which verifies the reliability of the numerical simulation.At the same time,it is found that the different position of the panoramic lens has an influence on the air flow which through the exterior mirrors,thus changing the rear flow field and the front window noise radiation intensity.Scheme Ⅲ is compared with other schemes,the tail vortex,the turbulence kinetic energy and the noise emission of the front window are relatively weaker,which can reduce the aerodynamic noise.Finally,by comparing the noise test of three kinds of schemes,it is found that the noise of scheme Ⅲ is lower than that of other schemes,which verifies the correctness of the analysis method.The analysis results provides the guidance for the reasonable arrangement of the rearview mirror panorama image lens,and is favorable for improving the comfort of the driver.…”
