A comprehensive cognitive-perceptual model of analysis for contextually determined components of a conceptualized term

The authors analyze major features of complex multidisciplinary analysis models of the recipient’s perceptual capacity related to desobjectifying contextually determined transdisciplinary borrowing of newly emerging components within a semantic hierarchy. Critical analysis and comparison are applied to some alternative approaches in linguistic studies of transdisciplinary terminologization. There is a role revealed, which belongs to the cognitive-perceptual aspect in the respective knowledge field. The comprehensive phenomenon of component transgression within the meaning hierarchy is viewed from different angles: metaphoric and metonymic explication, and from the stance of conceptual integration of mental spaces and grammatical constructions of implicit meaning generation. The semantic foundations of the frame & semantic model of the borrowing theory serve a prototype of a comprehensive analytical model relevant not only in Linguistics, yet in other humanities (Literature, Psychology, Sociology). The comprehensive method of bottom-up analysis in studying explication of contextually determined overtones (forced reinterpretation of terms and terminoids) implies desobjectification of the semantic hierarchy at several levels. The analysis suggests that standard linguistic mechanisms can be employed through deautomation in the said cognitive modeling function. Reactivating a prototypical mental image within a new reflexive space is viewed as the most effective way of explicating the respective components.

Determining Factor

The methods of determining burnthrough risk have changed over the years. The first burnthrough limits were developed experimentally and then, with the development of computers, came computer models. The first major advancement in computer models came at Battelle, in the early 1980s, with the development of the “Hot-Tap Thermal-Analysis Models.” The Battelle models use two-dimensional numerical solutions to predict the inside surface temperature as a function of the welding parameters, pipe parameters, and the operating conditions. The Battelle model considers an inside surface temperature of less than 1800°F (982°C) when using low-hydrogen electrodes, [1400°F (760°C) when using cellulosic-coated electrodes] to be safe. Since the release of the Battelle model, introduction other models have been developed which are based on Battelle’s logic as well as other approaches. PRCI, as well as others, has funded research to develop an alternative burnthrough prediction model which is based on a thermo-mechanical approach taking into account the stress associated with pressurized pipe. These alternative approaches differ from Battelle’s criteria which only uses the inside surface temperature as the lonely determining factor of safe welding practices.

New Information

В статье анализируются факторы, влияющие на выбор языковых средств номинации объектов и действий в сфере «новые информационные технологии», а также смысловые ограничения, налагаемые этимологией слова, которые необходимо учитывать в процессе лингво-креативной деятельности. В условиях технологического прогресса естественный язык использует все внутренние резервы для обеспечения коммуникации между людьми. В процессе акта номинации определяются связи между тремя категориями различной природы, к которым относятся непосредственно элемент действительности, его мыслительный образ, существующий в сознании человека, и лексическая единица, фиксирующая данный образ в системе языка. Основным концептуальным механизмом номинации в анализируемой сфере является развитие смыслов, под которые подбираются или даже создаются слова. На примере номинативного поля сервиса Twitter продемонстрированы концептуальные механизмы, лежащие в основе словообразовательных моделей, применяемых в данной сфере. К данным механизмам относятся «концептуальная деривация», подразумевающая процесс рекомбинации смыслов, при которой новые концепты формируются на базе первичных, уже существовавших в концептуальной системе человека, и «концептуальная интеграция», обеспечивающая развитие языка и реализацию им ведущей функции передачи разнообразных смыслов при ограниченном наборе языковых средств. В сфере «новые информационные технологии» происходит развитие значений репрезентирующих ее слов, их специализация и закрепление в определенных позициях в грамматической структуре высказываний. The article examines both the factors which influence the choice of the language means for the nomination of objects in the sphere «New Information Technologies» and semantic restrictions imposed by the «intrinsic form of a word» (or etymology) which should be taken into consideration in the process of linguocreative activity. In the situation of technological progress a human language uses all the internal resources to ensure communication between people. In nomination act the ties between three categories of different nature are identified. Those three categories comprise an element of real life, its mental image, and a lexical unit that fixes the image in the language system. The basic conceptual mechanism of nomination can be defined as the advancement of meanings for which appropriate words are chosen or even created. The conceptual mechanisms that underline the word-formation models with the reference to the nominative field of the Twitter service are illustrated. These mechanisms include «conceptual derivation» and «conceptual integration». Conceptual derivation implies the process of recombination of meanings already existing in a language. Conceptual integration guarantees both continual development of a language system and its implementation of the primary function of transmitting diverse meanings with a limited set of language resources.

Alternative Approaches

By extrapolation of past experience, it would seem that the future of ultra-high resolution electron microscopy rests with the advances of electron optical engineering that are improving the instrumental stability of high voltage microscopes to achieve the theoretical resolutions of 1Å or better at 1MeV or higher energies. While these high voltage instruments will undoubtedly produce valuable results on chosen specimens, their general applicability has been questioned on the basis of the excessive radiation damage effects which may significantly modify the detailed structures of crystal defects within even the most radiation resistant materials in a period of a few seconds. Other considerations such as those of cost and convenience of use add to the inducement to consider seriously the possibilities for alternative approaches to the achievement of comparable resolutions.
