Asymmetry in presupposition projection: The case of conjunction [PDF]

open access: yes
Is the basic mechanism behind presupposition projection fundamentally asymmetric or symmetric? This is a basic question for the theory of presupposition, which also bears on broader issues concerning the source of asymmetries observed

Tautomerization Kinetics of Thiouracils at Low Temperatures Driven Solely by Quantum‐Mechanical Tunnelling: Predictions of Suitable Candidates for Future Experiments

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Kinetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the past two decades numerous experiments have been conducted on the kinetics of reactions occurring at low temperatures on inert matrices. In particular, unimolecular proton‐transfer photo‐reactions of compounds containing a carbon–sulfur double bond, or thione group C═S, can lead to the formation of higher energy isomers or tautomers with

The Linearized Inverse Boundary Value Problem in Strain Gradient Elasticity

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper we study the linearized version of the strain gradient elasticity equation in ℝ2$$ {\mathbb{R}}^2 $$ with constant coefficients and we prove that one can determine the two Lamé coefficients λ,μ$$ \lambda, \mu $$ as well as the internal strain gradient parameter g$$ g $$, as indicated by Mindlin in his revolutionary papers in 1963–

Considering Intermediaries as Relational Localizers: A Case Study of Localization in the Thai–Southeast Myanmar Border Humanitarian Response

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Two conceptualizations of pathways to moderating power asymmetries in humanitarian practice have emerged in localization discourse—one emphasizing procedural reforms and the other highlighting relational transformation. Dominant Global North‐mediated localization frameworks emphasize procedural approaches with a focus on shifting to a direct ...

Seascapes, personhood and humanity: Conceptualising the contribution of international human rights law to sustainable governance of the marine environment

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite longstanding research on human rights and the environment, scholarship has only recently moved towards an explicit connection to the marine environment. At the same time, research on human rights and oceans focuses on people at sea, not environmental protection.

Presuppositions and Assertions: A Case Study on Acquisition of Most Common Presupposition Triggers in Early Childhood

open access: yesJournal of World Englishes and Educational Practices, 2020
This research aims to find out the acquisition of lexical presupposition triggers in early childhood. Children acquire semantic knowledge later than acquiring phonemes and uttering words. At what age the acquisition of lexical presupposition triggers is acquired is the question answered through this research.
