Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContrastive Analysis of Stretched Collocations with Get and Take: Their use and Pedagogical ImplicationsSilvia Molina PlazaThis paper explores the pedagogical implications of contrastive analyses of light verb constructions containing get and take in English and Spanish based on electronic corpora, the British National Corpus (BNC) and the Corpus de Referencia del Español Actual (CREA). The main tenets of collocations from a contrastive perspective-and the points of contact and departure between both languages-are discussed prior to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 23 Jul 2015 · 8,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractON THE RELIABILITY OF REYNOLDS-AVERAGED NAVIER STOKES PREDICTION OF MEAN FLOW CHARACTERISTICS OF A RECTANGULAR TURBULENT JET IN CROSSFLOWE. Khali, Y. F. YaoA jet of fluid discharging into a cross stream, also known as Jet In Crossflow (JICF), has received many experimental and numerical investigations. In addition to the fundamental understanding of three-dimensional mixing and shear flow characteristics, the fluid dynamics research community often regarded it as a benchmark test case for validating turbulence models. Although many authors considered the canonical case … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2014 · 6,958 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA FEASIBILITY STUDY: EMOTIONAL FREEDOM TECHNIQUES FOR DEPRESSION IN AUSTRALIAN ADULTSPeta Stapleton, Sharon Devine, Hannah Chatwin et al.The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using Clinical Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) to treat Major Depressive Disorder in an adult population by way of a therapeutic group setting. Adults were assigned to EFT group treatment for a period of eight weeks. Diagnostic assessment was completed immediately pre and post treatment using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 12 Jul 2014 · 12,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMISSING DATA IMPUTATION USING WEIGHTED OF REGIME SWITCHING MEAN AND REGRESSIONJumlong Vongprasert, Bhusana PremanodeMissing data imputation is an important task in cases where it is crucial to use all available data and not discard records with missing values. The purpose of this work were first to develop the Weighted of Regime Switching Mean and Regression (WRSMRI) for missing data estimation and secondly to compare its efficiency of estimation and statistical power of a … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 3 May 2014 · 6,704 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDESIGN AND COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF DC-DC BOOST AND SINGLE-ENDED PRIMARY-INDUCTANCE CONVERTER CONVERTERS USING SOLAR POWERED MAXIMUM POWER POINT TRACKING ALGORITHMSC. Thulasiyammal, S. SuthaThis study provides a comprehensive review of the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) techniques applied to Photovoltaic (PV) power system. Also this study presents a comparative study between three most fashionable techniques such as Incremental conductance (Inc) algorithm and Perturb and Observation (P&O) algorithm and fuzzy logic controller. These three techniques have been applied to converters such as Boost and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 24 Apr 2014 · 6,396 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSelenium Effect on Hyperoxia-Induced Glutathione Peroxidase Activity and Free Radicals Production in the BrainIsmaeel Bin-JaliahThe purpose of this study was to examine the behavior of Glutathione Peroxidase (GPx) activity and Free Radicals (FR) production in the brain during graded hyperoxia exposure with and without selenium preventive intake. Forty two adult male rats were assigned to seven groups, six animals each. The first group served as control and the second, third and fourth groups were … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 7 Dec 2013 · 6,745 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCLUSTER BASED DUPLICATE DETECTIONA. Venkatesh Kumar, S. VengataasalamWe propose a clustering technique for entropy based text dis-similarity calculation of de-duplication system. Improve the quality of grouping; in this study we propose a Multi-Level Group Detection (MLGD) algorithm which produces a most accurate group with most closely related object using Alternative Decision Tree (ADT) technique. Our propose a two new algorithm; first one is Multi-Level Group Detection (MLGD) … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 28 Sep 2013 · 7,035 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIgG Subclass Variation of a Monoclonal Antibody Binding to Human Fc-Gamma ReceptorsRekha Patel, Krista K. Johnson, Bruce A. Andrien, Paul P. TamburiniThe importance of human Fc receptors in immune regulation is well known. Their role is critical not only in the recruitment of cellular effector functions but also in regulating the balance in the periphery between autoimmunity and tolerance. Despite their central importance, there is a dearth of literature on controlled numeric comparisons in affinities of antibody subclasses for gamma receptors. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBayesian Models for Time Series with Covariates, Trend, Seasonality, Autoregression and OutliersPitsanu Tongkhow, Nantachai KantananthaBayesian methods furnish an attractive approach to time series data analysis. This article proposes the forecasting models that can detect trend, seasonality, auto regression and outliers in time series data related to some covariates. Cumulative Weibull distribution functions for trend, dummy variables for seasonality, binary selections for outliers and latent autoregression for autocorrelated time series data are used for the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 16 Apr 2013 · 6,653 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBIOCHEMICAL, NUTRIENT AND INHIBITORY CHARACTERISTICS OF STREPTOMYCES CULTURED FROM A HYPERSALINE ESTUARY, THE LAGUNA MADRE (TEXAS)Luis E. Espinoza, Anita L. Davelos Baines, Kristine L. LoweStreptomyces are common soil bacteria that produce secondary metabolites, including several antibiotics; however, the characteristics of marine Streptomyces are largely unknown. Sediment samples were taken from 3 sites in the Laguna Madre to isolate marine Streptomyces. Sediment was diluted, spread onto synthetic seawater media to estimate the total bacterial density of the samples and spread onto starch casein agar to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 7 Feb 2013 · 7,219 accessesView PDFCite
