Middle Eastern Culture in Tasting the Sky: A Palestinian Childhood: A Cognitive Corpus Stylistic Study
...Show More Authors

Background: Understanding Middle Eastern Culture in literature is essential for engaging readers worldwide. A society's culture can be reflected through literature. To this end, this study aims to identify the stylistic patterns that reflect Middle Eastern culture in the selected data and to examine how the multilevel approach of this study helps to locate these patterns. Ibtisam Barakat’s Tasting the Sky: A Palestinian Childhood (2007) memoir is selected as the data of the study. Methodology: the cognitive corpus stylistic approach is applied to identify language patterns and stylistic features in the selected data. The multilevel method targets the language patterns that reflect the culture of the Middle East in the book, as well as the stylistic features of cultural constructions and examine how they are linguistically and cognitively encoded in the text, so that the gap found in the literature can be filled. Results: The findings of this study show that the frequent use of particular language patterns related to religion, food, and traditions in the text reflects the culture to global readers. Conclusion: The cognitive corpus stylistic approach is employed to analyze the data and achieve the intended objectives. Corpus stylistics plays an effective role in supporting and providing insights that strengthen the cognitive stylistic analysis. AntConc software helps to find textual evidence to support the analysis. Consequently, integrating bottom-up (quantitative analysis utilizing corpus tools) and top-down (qualitative analysis) methodologies yields a thorough and nuanced examination of the data in question.

: خلفية البحث: يُعدّ فهم ثقافة الشرق الأوسط في الأدب أمرًا أساسيًا لجذب القراء في جميع أنحاء العالم. إذ يمكن أن تنعكس ثقافة أي مجتمع من خلال الأدب. ولتحقيق هذه الغاية، تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى تحديد الأنماط الأسلوبية التي تعكس ثقافة الشرق الأوسط في البيانات المختارة، ودراسة كيفية مساهمة المنهج متعدد المستويات في تحديد هذه الأنماط. وقد تم اختيار مذكرات ابتسام بركات "تذوق السماء: طفولة فلسطينية" (2007) كبيانات للدراسة. المنهجية: تم تطبيق المنهج الأسلوبي المعرفي لتحديد الأنماط اللغوية والخصائص الأسلوبية في البيانات المختارة. ويستهدف المنهج متعدد المستويات الأنماط اللغوية التي تعكس ثقافة الشرق الأوسط في الكتاب، بالإضافة إلى الخصائص الأسلوبية للبنى الثقافية، ودراسة كيفية ترميزها لغويًا ومعرفيًا في النص، وذلك لسدّ الفجوة الموجودة في الأدب. النتائج: تُظهر نتائج هذه الدراسة أن الاستخدام المتكرر لأنماط لغوية معينة تتعلق بالدين والطعام والتقاليد في النص يعكس الثقافة للقراء العالميين. الاستنتاجات: يُستخدم المنهج الأسلوبي المعرفي القائم على تحليل النصوص لتحليل البيانات وتحقيق الأهداف المرجوة. يلعب علم أسلوب النصوص دورًا فعالًا في دعم التحليل الأسلوبي المعرفي وتقديم رؤى تُعززه. يُساعد برنامج AntConc في إيجاد أدلة نصية تدعم التحليل. بالتالي، يُؤدي دمج المنهجيات التصاعدية (التحليل الكمي باستخدام أدوات تحليل النصوص) والتنازلية (التحليل النوعي) إلى فحص دقيق وشامل للبيانات قيد الدراسة.

A Study of the electronic structure of CdS Nanocrystals using density functional theory
...Show More Authors

Density Functional Theory at the generalized-gradient approximation level coupled with large unit cell method is used to simulate the electronic structure of (II-VI) zinc-blende cadmium sulfide nanocrystals that have dimensions 2-2.5 nm. The calculated properties include lattice constant, conduction and valence bands width, energy of the highest occupied orbital, energy of the lowest unoccupied orbital, energy gap, density of states etc. Results show that lattice constant and energy gap converge to definite values. However, highest occupied orbital, lowest unoccupied orbital fluctuates indefinitely depending on the shape of the nanocrystal.

Enhanced permeability estimation in non-cored wells using a modified flow zone index-permeability crossplot: a case study of carbonate reservoirs
...Show More Authors

The permeability estimates for the uncored wells and a porosity function adopting a modified flow zone index-permeability crossplot are given in this work. The issues with implementing that approach were mostly crossplots, due to the influence of geological heterogeneity, did not show a clear connection (scatter data). Carbonate reservoir flow units may now be identified and characterized using a new approach, which has been formally confirmed. Due to the comparable distribution and flow of clastic and carbonate rock fluids, this zoning method is most effective for reservoirs with significant primary and secondary porosity. The equations and correlations here are more generalizable since they connect these variables by combining cor

Technological and digital development has allowed the emergence of many methods of producing semantics on social media sites within semiotic and propagandistic frameworks. This is what made the image appear in different molds and shapes, especially as it is the first material for visual perception.
This made the Israeli propaganda discourse use it as an important tool to manage the content of suggestive messages with semiological connotations. By doing so, such tool uses social networking sites as an appropriate environment to achieve those goals, which are related to cases of manipulating emotions and minds. It, moreover, changes convictions, attitudes, trends and behaviors according to what the propaganda planner wants.
