The control of flow balance at the die exit is key for successful extrusion polymers. complex cross-sectional variation in real-world hollow profiles intrinsically promotes imbalance cavity. Special considerations are required designing dies such profiles. design a door frame profile was computationally optimized this study with aid commercially available software package. velocity distribution...

Abstract One of the central topics in semantic theory over last few decades concerns nature local contexts. Recently, theorists have tried to develop general, non-stipulative accounts contexts (Ingason, 2016; Mandelkern & Romoli, 2017a; Schlenker, 2009). In this paper, we contribute literature by drawing attention subclausal expressions. More specifically, focus on quantificational determin...

The paper argues that discourse reference in natural language involves two equally important components with essentially the same interpretive dynamics, namely reference to values, i.e. (non-singleton) sets of objects, and reference to structure, i.e. the correlation / dependency between such sets, which is introduced and incrementally elaborated upon in discourse. To define and investigate str...

Hintikka claimed in the 1970s that indefinites and disjunctions give rise to 'branching readings' that can only be handled by a 'game-theoretic' semantics as expressive as a logic with quantification over Skolem functions. Due to empirical and methodological difficulties, the issue was left unresolved in the linguistics literature. Independently, however, it was discovered in the 1980s that, co...

Abstract The problem of probabilities conditionals is one the long‐standing puzzles in philosophy language. We defend and update Adams' solution to puzzle: probability an epistemic conditional not a proposition, but under supposition. Close inspection how triviality result unfolds concrete scenario does provide counterexamples view that are probabilities: instead, it supports conclusion violate...
