The orthodox view of tense mandates that the present tense, when embedded under a past attitude predicate, should give rise soley to what is called "double access" reading (Abusch 1997; Ogihara1996; OgiharaSharvit2012). We consider class presents which locate eventuality neither at time utterance nor attitude. Unlike some other recently identified cases ill-behaved tenses, we argue our are inst...

This paper presents a numerical solution for vibration analysis of a cantilever trapezoidal thick plate. The material of the plate is considered to be graded through the thickness from a metal surface to a ceramic one according to a power law function. Kinetic and strain energies are derived based on the Reissner-Mindlin theory for thick plates and using Hamilton's principle, the governing equa...

The urban development process displays regressive tacit-dominant knowledge areas and their tacit level would impede their movements during multi-level knowledge transfers among stakeholders. The accuracy of a knowledge may be distorted when recipient stakeholders fail to understand a specific knowledge for its purpose. Earlier studies by the authors had highlighted complex yet dynamic environme...
