Q-particles in embedded declaratives, mood, and clausal complementation

Clausal Complementation and Selection

Varieties of Clausal Complementation

This thesis argues that clausal arguments of mental-state predicates divide into two main types: those that express the content, or "subject matter" of the mental state, and those that express the cause of the mental state. My central theoretical claim is that this dichotomy corresponds to a difference in syntactic structure. I propose that these different structures derive from an operation of...

The Semantics of Mood , Complementation , and Conversational Force

significance. In the first two sections the subject matter and background assumptions of the study are specified. Section 3 outlines the syntactic distribution and conversational force of the indicative and subjective (in English and Italian), infinitives, and ‘mood-indicating’ modal may. Then section 4 gives a formal theory which predicts the operators under which each mood may be embedded. Fi...

Preparation and Characterization of Microfiltration Membrane Embedded with Silver Nano-Particles

The microfiltration 0.2 µm Cellulose Acetate (CA) membrane was modified by embedding antibacterial silver nano-particles in the membrane pores. This novel technique was developed to enhance the capability of the microfiltration membrane for removing microorganism including bacteria. The prepared membrane was characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spe...

extraction and characterization of allium irancum plant extract and its application in the green synthesis of silver nano particles and oxidation of thiocarbony1 compounds

سنتز سبز نانوذرات فلزی (nps) درسالهای اخیر توجه بسیارزیادی را به خود جلب کرده است. زیرا این پروتوکل کم هزینه وسازگار با محیط زیست از روش های استاندارد سنتز. در این پایان نامه ما گزارش میکنیم یک روش ساده و سازگار با محیط زیست برای سنتز نانوذرات نقره با استفاده از محلول آبی عصاره گیاه allium iranicum به عنوان یک عامل کاهش دهنده ی طبیعی. نانو ذرات نقره مشخص شد با استفاده از تکنیک های uv-visible، x...
