The present paper argues that there is a knowledge norm for conversational implicature: one HYDRATE SHAMPOO may conversationally implicate p only if one knows p.Linguistic data about the cancellation behavior of implicatures and the ways they are challenged and criticized by speakers is presented to support the thesis.The knowledge norm for implica
Prediction of Dynamic Coefficients of Bump-Type Foil Bearings with Bumps Considered as Link-Spring Structures
Bump-type foil bearings have demonstrated excellent performance in service experiences in recent 30 years.Due to their special structures, the performance prediction models must couple the air pressure with the elastic deflection of the compliant foil structure.The solution of air pressure has been well settled in the hydrodynamic lubrication theor
Trust as a mechanism of system justification.
People are motivated to hold favorable attitudes about the systems on which they depend, so they justify (i.e., rationalize, defend and bolster) forms of social and economic inequality, even if the inequality buffing compund is disadvantageous to them.This paper examines how this system-justifying motivation is reflected in behaviors involving inte
Self-Sustained Oscillatory Sliding Movement of Doublet Microtubules and Flagellar Bend Formation.
It is well established that the basis for flagellar and ciliary movements is ATP-dependent sliding between adjacent doublet microtubules.However, Bed Sheets the mechanism for converting microtubule sliding into flagellar and ciliary movements has long remained unresolved.The author has developed new sperm models that use bull spermatozoa divested o
Prediction of well-being and insight into work-life integration among physicians using machine learning approach.
There has been increasing interest in examining physician well-being and its predictive factors.However, few studies have revealed the characteristics associated with physician well-being and work-life integration using a machine learning approach.To investigate predictive factors of well-being and obtain Ice Cream Cone Dispensers insights into wor
