Abstract Nine characteristics of discontinuous agreement are shown to flow from a syntax that deals in whole phi structures and linearisation algorithm renders these when conditions converge. This approach is demonstrably superior reliance solely on syntax, morphology, or the lexicon, outperforming across range morphological syntactic data Afroasiatic languages those Australia Papua New Guinea.

Audible frequencies of sound are encoded in a continuous manner along the length of the cochlea, and frequency is transmitted to the brain as a representation of place on the basilar membrane. The resulting tonotopic map has been assumed to be a continuous smooth progression from low to high frequency throughout the central auditory system. Here, physiological and anatomical data show that best...

in this article, we propose an adaptive grid based on mesh equidistribution principle for two-parameter convection-diffusion boundary value problems with continuous and discontinuous data. a numerical algorithm based on an upwind finite difference operator and an appropriate adaptive grid is constructed. truncation errors are derived for both continuous and discontinuous problems. parameter uni...

Under the present European directive concerning common rules for the internal market in electricity, distribution companies are not allowed to own Distributed Generation (DG) but encouraged to include it as a planning option to defer investment in traditional grid reinforcements. Distribution system operators (DSOs) have used the provision of capacity contracted to DG as a viable alternative un...

Information security pervades all such needs. In a DG environment, secure interoperation ensures confidentiality when individuals, private organizations, and government agencies access information. Electronic transactions and delivery systems must be secure to ensure protection against fraud and other vulnerabilities. The government’s archived information should be protected from tampering yet ...

In this paper, the linearly conforming enriched radial basis point interpolation method is implemented for the elasto-plastic analysis of discontinuous medium. The linear conformability of the method is satisfied by the application of stabilized nodal integration and the enrichment of radial basis functions is achieved by the addition of linear polynomial terms. To implement the method for the ...

This is the report of the 55th of a series of workshops organised by the European Centre for the Validation of Alternative Methods (ECVAM). The main objective of ECVAM, as defined in 1993 by its Scientific Advisory Committee, is to promote the scientific and regulatory acceptance of alternative methods which are of importance to the biosciences, and which reduce, refine or replace the use of la...

Subretinal prostheses aim at restoring sight to patients blinded by photoreceptor degeneration using electrical activation of the surviving inner retinal neurons. Today, such implants deliver visual information with low-frequency stimulation, resulting in discontinuous visual percepts. We measured retinal responses to complex visual stimuli delivered at video rate via a photovoltaic subretinal ...

In recent years, models have been developed that conceive psychotherapy as a self-organizing process of bio-psycho-social systems. These models originate from the theory of self-organization (Synergetics), from the theory of deterministic chaos, or from the approach of self-organized criticality. This process-outcome study examines several hypotheses mainly derived from Synergetics, including t...

A variety of protein domain predictors were developed to predict protein domain boundaries in recent years, but most of them cannot predict discontinuous domains. Considering nearly 40% of multidomain proteins contain one or more discontinuous domains, we have developed DomEx to enable domain boundary predictors to detect discontinuous domains by assembling the continuous domain segments.
