There are many examples in which a word changes its polarity from domain to domain. For example, unpredictable is positive in the movie domain, but negative in the product domain. Such words cannot be entered in a “universal sentiment lexicon” which is supposed to be a repository of words with polarity invariant across domains. Rather, we need to maintain separate domain specific sentiment lexi...

o bjectives: the aim of this study was to investigate the displacement and stress distri- bution during surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion under different surgical conditions with tooth- and bone-borne devices. materials and methods: three-dimensional (3d) finite element model of a maxilla was constructed and an expansion force of 100 n was applied to the left and right molars and pr...

this study was conducted to evaluate the genetically effective traits that related to drought tolernace using 14 bread wheat lines and cultivars where in previous experiment clusterd into two resistant and susceptible groups under non-stress and stress conditions using randomized complete block design replicated three times. the combined analysis based on north carolina desing ii for studied tr...

Abstract Effective stress analysis using liquefaction parameters is often employed for the numerical of soil liquefaction. However, to best our knowledge, that simultaneously reproduce strength curve and effective path have not been reported date. Herein, we propose a new method estimate model used in analysis: pore pressure curves obtained from laboratory tests are as targets inverse analysis....
