We numerically show that extreme events induced by parameter mismatches or noise in coupled oscillatory systems can be anticipated and suppressed before they actually occur. We show this in a main system unidirectionally coupled to an auxiliary system subject to a negative delayed feedback. Each system consists of two electronic oscillators coupled in a master-slave configuration. Extreme event...

Abstract This research has aimed to examine the feedback effects between economic growth and environmental degradation through health that is one of human capital elements and also the consequences of such these relationships on economic convergence process during the period 1990-2013 for 60 developing countries in framework of simultaneous equations model by using unbalanced panel data analysi...

The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of direct and indirect corrective feedback types on a group EFL learners’ writing achievement. It also aimed at investigating their views these types. participants included 40 preparatory school students studying English state university in Turkey. instructor, researcher current study, provided with both written which were investigated t...

Background. Writing is a complex skill, even more so, if the student does not handle generic structure of institutionalized practices imposed on Higher Education.
 Purpose. The purpose this study to determine effectiveness direct and metalinguistic focused written corrective feedback (WCF) information structuring connectors.
 Methods. This quantitative compares WCF in 39 subjects who ...

A control methodology for asynchronous sequential machines is addressed in this paper. The considered machine consists of a number of input/state asynchronous machines, termed submachines, between which asynchronous switching is conducted by the switching signal. The control objective is to design a corrective controller so that the stable-state behavior of the closed-loop system can mimic a re...

Problem management is the dominating process within corrective maintenance. It not only handles software problems but also provides quantitative feedback important for assessing product quality, crucial for continuous process analysis and improvement and essential for defect prevention. Chapter 2 gives a detailed description of the problem management process and its constituent phases, activiti...

The present study investigated EFL teachers’ beliefs about oral corrective feedback (CF), their CF-provision practices across elementary and intermediate levels, and their beliefs-practices correspondence. To this end, the researchers conducted a semi-structured interview with the teachers and went on an overall forty-hour observation of their classrooms across both levels. The findings reveale...
