Problem Definition: Sarouk rugs are one of the most crucial rug brands in Iran and one of the most famous rugs among the world audience, which were produced from the middle of the 19th century until ...the beginning of World War II under the management of French companies, especially Ziegler. There are samples of these rugs with Corner and Medallion designs and a unique structure in the Claremont collection, which differ from common samples regarding the type of design pattern. The limitation of comprehensive and salient research resources about Sarouk rug and its exquisite and export samples that were produced in the past reveals more of the necessity of research on this issue. The main research question is "What are the features, visual qualities, and structural elements of Claremont Collection rugs?"Objective: In the present research, the structural elements of Sarouk rugs of the last quarter of the 19th century, which are preserved in the Claremont Collection, will be analyzed. This article's structural and aesthetic elements include the background space, Medallion (Toranj) and space above Medallion (Sar Toranj), Corner, Margins, and the colors used.Research Method: This research is qualitative and fundamental, and the research method is descriptive-analytical. The method of collecting data is library-based in addition to searching the websites.Results: The Sarouk rugs produced in the late 19th century, which were woven for export, are all of the Corner and Medallion design and are unique in their design pattern and color. They are often produced on large scales with vegetable dyes. The color of the Margin and background change between red, navy, and ivory colors. In some rugs, the color of the central Medallion is the same as that of the Margin and Corner. All these rugs are various in Corner and Medallion design, and the central Medallion forms the structure and identity of Shakhe Shekasteh motifs (cursive-curve). The structure of the designing pattern, the logical color scheme and the visual order of the motifs are the differences between Sarouk rugs and other Iranian rugs.
This article is the result of a field work written in connection with the documentation and introduction of the technical and aesthetic dimensions of the carpet of the village of Jiria as the most ...active area of weaving with about 500 active the loom framework in the central province. the texture quality is the most important feature of the Jiriya carpet, which is one of the most important brands of Iranian carpets that unfortunately has not been recognized and introduced.in Jiriya, various designs are woven into three categories. A: Indigenous designs include larch and bergamot (do hashiye, lachak va toranj khorshidi, daayereii, afshan, beyzi va lozi), dastgahi(goldaste), broken mostofi and tabrizi. B. Non-native designs includes kheshti, ravari, zirkhaki, zellol Sultan and haft dervishes. C: Designs that are designed by contemporary designers and includes atlasi, mostofi monhani, farhang, oghabi, koumeei,morghe mahikhar ,takboteh and hajkhanoumi. this research is of fundamental type and research method is descriptive-analytic. The method of data collection is fieldwork.
An image processing workflow is presented for the characterization of pore and grain size distributions in porous geological samples from X-ray microcomputed tomography (μCT) and scanning electron ...microscopy (SEM) images. The pore and grain size distributions of five sandstone samples including Berea, Buff Berea, Nugget, Castlegate, and Bentheimer, and one carbonate sample, Indiana limestone, are extracted using the proposed workflow. Two-dimensional size distributions acquired from SEM images were found to be biased toward smaller sizes misrepresenting the actual 3D distributions. Stereological techniques unfolded the measured 2D size distributions from SEM images to 3D distributions comparable with μCT results. While larger pores and grains can easily be detected from μCT and SEM images, the quantification of small-scale heterogeneities is severely influenced by their limits of resolution. We show that microstructural details resolved by SEM can significantly impact the pore and grain size distributions in sandstone and carbonate rock samples. For example, SEM-resolved microporosities in Indiana limestone result in bimodal distributions of pore and grain sizes, whereas μCT observations exhibit unimodal distributions. The acquired images and processed results are openly available and may be used by researchers investigating image processing, magnetic resonance relaxation or fluid flow simulations in natural rocks. The proposed methodology can be implemented to process μCT and SEM images of natural rocks as well as other types of porous materials.
•Image processing workflow computes pore/grain size distributions from images.•Stereological unfolding of pore/grain size from SEM agrees with that of μCT images.•SEM resolves microstructural details that affect pore and grain size distributions.•The agreement between μCT and SEM results was consistent in six sedimentary rocks.•A dataset of μCT and SEM images of six sedimentary rock samples made public.
•Experts’ perspective towards the predictors of social media addiction were examined.•The predictors were evaluated using the DEMATEL method approach.•Personality was identified as the most important ...dimension impacting addiction.•Openness, loneliness, and depression were the most important predictors.
While there is a growing number of studies investigating the determinants of social media addiction, there is a lack of research on examining the importance of such predictors and their inter-correlations and inter-dependences from psychotherapists’ and researchers’ point of views. Hence, utilizing the “Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL)” technique, the current study investigated the clinical importance of social media addiction from the perspective of researchers and psychotherapists. Accordingly, by reviewing the literature 15 distal predictors of social media addiction were extracted and further classified into three groups of personality factors, comorbid symptoms, and psychosocial factors. From the data collected from 35 respondents, the results highlighted the group of personality factors as the most important dimension increasing the risk for developing social media addiction from the respondents’ perspective. Moreover, the DEMATEL results revealed the predictors of openness to experience (personality dimension), loneliness (psychosocial), and depression (comorbid) as the most important predictors of social media addiction within each group. The results and implications of the study are discussed.
In the nomadic weaves, although the functional aspect was intended, its aesthetic aspect with a variety of native motifs, resulting from the birth of personal and collective beliefs, it is more ...prominent and as if the woven were a space for arousal, representation of imagination and emotion. the horse's face is a representation of the nomadic weaving, and in particular the Qashqai, which provides a space for design and motif creation and companion native and natural colors are provided by the weaver. in this article, while briefly describing and introducing Qashqai woven fabrics, various types of horse coverings and ornaments, nomadic gullies, and in particular gashqai gullies in terms of weaving technique, structure and aesthetic dimensions, introducing, describing, and analyzing, 24 cover of horse were selected as the sample for this process. the results of the present study indicate that the cover of horse structure of all regions of Iran, regardless of some exceptions, follows a general form. while most of them are related to carpet weaving techniques woven has been with the carpet weaving technique ghalibori (Turkmennaghsh) or Gol Barjaste this
This article is the result of a field activity and is associated with the carpet of Qashqai's Nazem design. which has been completed in the camps of Cheshmeh Rahman and Gol Afshan in the city of ...Semirom in Isfahan province. the nazem design is one of the most prominent designs among the various types of designs in qashqai architecture which is woven today with a different approach and structure from the past in the qashqai geography from Fars province to south of Isfahan (Semirom).the process of settlement of qashqai tribes leads to a change in lifestyle and fundamental changes in quantitative and qualitative production, application and structure of qashqai woven, in particular the carpet of the nazem design in the technological dimension and aesthetic dimension.these dimensions will be investigated and analyzed in this study. the type of research is fundamental and research method is descriptive-analytical.the way information is gathered is predominantly fieldwork. findings of the research indicate is that lifestyle changes from nomad to settlement have a great influence on the production of nomadic wool and especially the carpets of the nazim design. so that the weaving the mental process have given Place herself to weave by pattern and raster map. the size of the carpet of nazem design is smaller than the past and elements of the original structure of the design (altar like space, half cedars,tree of thousand flowers- central of flower pot and flowers and leaves spread and saucer shape) has undergone fundamental changes.
Markazi province is one of the long-standing centers of Iranian carpet weaving. Farahan is a large area of Markazi province that includes more than 200 villages and weaving centers. Sarough, as a ...prominent Iranian carpet brand, is one of the most important centers of carpet weaving in Farahan. Farahan carpet, which has been the origination and the first carpet of Markazi province, began to grow, develop, and flourish in the middle of the Qajar period due to the presence of Tabriz merchants and then the establishment of foreign companies in Sultanabad. It was at this time that Farahan Carpet found its true identity with the help of a coherent and coordinated management and exemplary quality of production.Currently, Farahan and Sarough carpets are presented in the most prestigious museums, collections, and galleries around the world. The quality of weaving, brightness and sparkle of colors, and beautiful and varied patterns (which are the result of the attitude, taste, talent, and imagination of Iranian designer artists) have made them unique. As a result, during the ups and downs of economics and art caused by global challenges, they have always been interesting, as components of identity and quality, for the manufacturers in all eras, especially the recent decades. Farahan Carpet Company is one of the most prominent manufacturers of Farahan carpet, which has been working in this field for almost six decades. This company is based on indigenous, national, and transnational standards and consciously follows a purpose. It examines the needs of the market and the customers in order to offer coherent products with two traditional and modern approaches. The destination and target markets of most of these products include the United States, Europe, and the Far East. In Farahan Carpet, all the steps and production processes from the beginning to the end are performed under the supervision of the company's managers and experts. The lack of resources in the field of Farahan carpets highlights the need for this research. In sources which briefly refer the carpets of Markazi province and its subordinate cities and villages, such as "Persian carpet" (Edwards, 1989), "Persian carpets" (Hangeldin, 1996), "Ghalin” (Sabahi, 2014), “Study of Persian Carpet” (Jouleh, 2011), and “Golden Sunset of Sarough Carpet” (Sooresrafil, 1993), there have also been some brief and general references to Farahan carpet and its villages, such as Sarough. In addition, in recent years, studies have been conducted on the carpets of Markazi province (Arak, Farahan, Sarough and Jirya), namely "review, analysis, and introduction of native and original designs and patterns of Arak Carpet weaving school (Sultanabad)" (Afroogh, 2017) and "Study, analysis, and introduction of new and imported (adapted) designs and patterns in the contemporary carpets of Arak (Sultanabad)” (Afrough, 2018). The present study aimed to introduce the Farahan carpet-weaving school and the design and patterns of its carpets in order to study, investigate, and introduce the Farahan Carpet company and its products.
