Towards a Model of Argument Strength for Bipolar Argumentation Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesStudies in Logic, Grammar and Rhetoric, 2018
Bipolar argument graphs represent the structure of complex pro and contra arguments for one or more standpoints. In this article, ampliative and exclusionary principles of evaluating argument strength in bipolar acyclic argumentation graphs are laid out ...

A Dialectical View on Conduction: Reasons, Warrants, and Normal Suasory Inclinations

open access: yesInformal Logic, 2019
When Carl Wellman (1971) introduced the reasoning-type conduction, he endorsed a dialectical view on natural language argumentation. Contemporary scholarship, by contrast, treats conductive argument predominantly on a product view. Not only did Wellman’s

The Distinctiveness Problem of Analogical Arguments

open access: yesInformal Logic
The orthodox view holds that analogical arguments are a distinctive type of argument, while the eliminative view and its enhanced variant proposed in this paper contend that analogical arguments can be reducible to non-analogical arguments by ...

Electron energy relaxation under terahertz excitation in (Cd1−xZnx)3As2 Dirac semimetals [PDF]

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2017
We demonstrate that measurements of the photo-electromagnetic effect using terahertz laser radiation provide an argument for the existence of highly conductive surface electron states with a spin texture in Dirac semimetals (Cd1−xZnx)3As2. We performed a

The Early History of Polyaniline: Discovery and Origins

open access: yesSubstantia, 2017
Prior to the discovery of its conductive properties in the 1960s, polyaniline was studied and applied as a variety of colored materials and dyes. The history of the discovery and origins of polyaniline are presented beginning with the initial oxidation ...

"Conductive" argumentation in the UK fracking debate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
From a critical rationalist perspective, I look at a fragment of the debate on shale gas exploration in the UK in order to make a proposal on the nature and representation of “conductive” argumentation, arguing it should not be viewed as a single argument, but in relation to deliberation as genre.

Considering Carneades as a Framework for Informal Logic: A Reply to Walton and Gordon

open access: yesInformal Logic, 2016
The paper offers a critical analysis of the research program for formalizing informal logic proposed by Douglas Walton and Thomas Gordon (forthcoming). Since their proposal is based on employing the Carneades Argumentation System (CAS), this paper aims ...

Thermal quadrupole method with internal heat sources [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A new method based on the thermal quadrupoles technique for heat transfer modelling in multilayered slabs with heat sources is proposed. Classical thermal quadrupoles use hyperbolic functions and numerical problems occur according to the argument value ...

The limitations of conducting collaborative argumentation when teaching argumentative essays in Malaysian secondary schools

open access: yesStudies in English Language and Education, 2021
The writing of argumentative essays promotes higher-order thinking skills amongst students regardless of their level of studying only when it involves collaborative argumentation. Hence, argumentation researchers recommend that teachers use group argumentation to teach argumentative essays since Vygotsky’s sociocultural theory believed that group ...
