Multiobjective Codesign Optimization of a Planar Pneumatic Artificial Muscle‐Based Snake‐Like Robot for Enhanced Agility and Energy Efficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

Counterfactuality, Definiteness, and Bell's Theorem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Counterfactual definiteness is shown from analysis of Bell's Theorem to be the factor separating classical from quantum theories. From this, it is shown that, by replacing it with 'counterfactual semi-definiteness', the definiteness of possible options ...

Why all John’s friends are Dutch, not German; on differences in West Germanic in the interaction between universal quantifiers and genitives [PDF]

open access: yesBucharest Working Papers in Linguistics, 2014
Unlike English and Dutch, German does not allow a genitive to follow a universal quantifier: (i) All John’s friends… (ii) Al Jans vrienden… (Dutch) (iii) *All(e) Johanns Freunde… (German) In this article I show that this discrepancy results from two ...

On Determination Method for Resolution of Secondary Electron Images in Scanning Electron Microscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An idealized SEM, termed Rayleigh's microscope, is constructed by Monte Carlo simulation to represent imaging conditions that just satisfy the Rayleigh criterion. Based on this physically defined model, sharpness–resolution conversion curves are established and combined with the Rose criterion, enabling automated resolution evaluation from practical ...

Transgenerational Differences in Turkish Heritage Speakers: The Case of Turkish Definiteness

open access: yesLanguages
In Turkish, definiteness is marked through accusative case marking -(y)I and the presence or absence of the prenominal determiner bir (one). Crucially the latter may function as an indefinite determiner depending on the context.

Patronen in omissie en substitutie van lidwoorden in de Tsjechische vt-verwerving van het Nederlands

open access: yesActa Universitatis Carolinae Philologica, 2019
This paper examines patterns in omission and substitution of articles in Dutch by Czech FL learners. Why do some learners from L1 backgrounds without articles show persistent variability in their article production?

In Vivo Electrochemical Monitoring of Safinamide Pharmacokinetics in the Brain Explores Its Correlation With Vision‐Related Neuronal Activity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An electrochemical platform based on differential pulse amperometry enables real‐time, selective tracking of safinamide pharmacokinetics in the living brain with high spatiotemporal resolution. When integrated with electrophysiology, this approach reveals that drug‐induced suppression of vision‐related neuronal activity provides mechanistic insight ...

Electrocatalytic Coupling Conversion of Methane by Dual‐Site Control in Nickel Oxyhydroxide

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Electrocatalytic coupling conversion of methane (CH4) is accomplished on the nickel oxyhydroxide (NiOOH), wherein the Ni─O dual‐site is triggered via the proper electronic interaction, synergistically promoting the C─H activation and C─C formation, enabling a selective and efficient C2 product generation route under ambient conditions. ABSTRACT Methane

Specificity and definiteness in sentence and discourse structure

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper, I argue that this informally given list of characteristics covers only a certain subclass of specific indefinites. […] In particular, I dispute the definition of specific indefinites as "the speaker has the referent in mind" as rather ...

UNCERTAINTY IN DIALECTICS OF DETERMINATION

open access: yesДискурс, 2016
This article is devoted to the problem of uncertainty in exact and natural sciences. The retrospective uncertainty is considered in detail as an aspect of determination. In addition, the retrospective of the problem is given in the philosophy of science.
