In his [2011], Lionel Shapiro proposes a very interesting deflationist conception of logical consequence, according to which the logical-consequence predicate applying to sentences serves as a merely expressive device allowing us to talk in a generalising way about typically non-linguistic entailment facts (just as, according to a deflationist conception of truth, the truth predicate applying t...

The ubiquitous schema ‘All Fs are Gs’ dominates much philosophical discussion on laws but rarely is it shown how actual laws mentioned and used in science are supposed to fit it. After consideration of a variety of laws, including those obviously conditional and those superficially not conditional (such as equations), I argue that we have good reason to support the traditional interpretation of...

OI 630.0 nm airglow observations, from a new observatory at Bom Jesus de Lapa, were used to study the interaction between EPBs (Equatorial Plasma Bubbles) and MSTID (Medium-Scale Traveling Ionospheric Disturbance) over Northeast region in Brazil. On night of September 16 17, 2020, an EPB was observed propagating eastward, apparent fossil stage, until it interacted with dark band electrified (eM...

abstract in this research sand drifts potential using sand rose graph software and fryberger velocity classes’ method investigated. thus wind data between 1985 and 2005 from meteorological stations of jask and kerman were analyzed to examine sand drift potential. sand drift potential amount of kerman station was 412.6 using sand rose graph and 401.09 using fryberger,s method. sand drift potenti...

In a recent paper entitled “Inconsistencies of Recently Proposed Citation Impact Indicators and how to Avoid Them,” Schreiber (2012) proposed (i) a method to assess tied ranks consistently and (ii) fractional attribution to percentile ranks in the case of relatively small samples (e.g., for n < 100). For example, a journal may contain a limited number of (e.g., ten) reviews in a year. In that c...

sensitivity of an electromagnetic type metal detector is directly related to stability, the higher the required sensitivity, the more frequently the rebalancing controls will have to be adjusted. thus, for maximum sensitivity in the head ,the use of automatic drift compensation network is necessary in order to cancel out the signal resulting from a slow drift in the coil system due to the tempe...

What is a non-strict functional language? Is a non-strict language necessarily lazy? What additional expressiveness brings non-strictness, with or without laziness? This paper tries to shed some light on these questions. First, in order to characterize non-strictness, di1erent evaluation strategies are introduced: strict, lazy, and lenient. Then, using program examples, how these evaluation str...
