introduction lentil is an important pulse crop in iran. lentil is a seed propagating, self-pollinating crop originating from near east. it is containing 27.5% -31.75% protein and it has high level of iron, calcium, phosphor, thiamin, niacin, and some unusual amino acid as hydroxyarnitin, hydroxyarginin and homo arginin. faostat reported that the world production of lentils was 4,975,621 metric ...

A series of vowel-identification experiments using gated consonant stimuli shows that English listeners are capable of recovering the vocalic context in which a consonant appears from information contained in the consonant alone. This is true for most consonants tested, including liquids, nasals, and stops in onset and coda position. Positional asymmetries in vowel sensitivity go in opposite di...

This study examined articulatory composition of the Korean liquid in the phonological contexts that condition its allophony using real-time MRI. During the liquid, tongue tip constriction, tongue body raising and tongue root fronting motions were observed. Inter-vocalic liquids (flap percept) were produced with shorter tongue tip movement duration and smaller displacement than onset or coda liq...

Writing systems are usually studied in terms of the level of language that they represent, with little attention to the shapes that are used to do so. Those shapes are not random or accidental, however. They tend to be similar to one another within a script. Many of the Latin letters have a roughly vertical stem or hasta with an appendage or coda to the right. This arrangement is more common th...

Simulation testbeds are important for developing complex systems, such as autonomous oceanographic sampling networks (AOSNs), as they allow the development and testing of control mechanisms without incurring the cost or risk of using real vehicles. Over the past several years, two simulators for AOSNs, CoDA and CADCON, have been developed. The CoDA simulator is a multi-fidelity simulation testb...

Building on the contemporary functional phonology, the present paper posits physical groundings in coda maximization. The four sorts of conditioning consonants that commonly undergo the syllabification stem from the articulations that preferentially affiliate to stressed syllable codas: contact of the tongue for the American English tap, no incompatibility for the British English glottal stop, ...

E ective coordination of distributed human planners requires timely communication of relevant information to ensure the overall coherence of activities and the compatibility of assumptions. The CODA system provides targeted information dissemination among distributed human planners as a way of improving coordination. Within CODA, each planner declares interest in di erent types of plan changes ...
