Opposition control within the resolvent analysis framework

This paper extends the resolvent analysis of McKeon & Sharma (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 658, 2010, pp. 336–382) to consider flow control techniques that employ linear control laws, focusing on opposition control (Choi, Moin & Kim, J. Fluid Mech., vol. 262, 1994, pp. 75–110) as an example. Under this formulation, the velocity field for turbulent pipe flow is decomposed into a series of highly amplifi...

What Twitter May Contribute in German Emergencies

Social media is becoming more and more important in crisis management. However its analysis by emergency services still bears unaddressed challenges and the majority of studies focus on the use of social media in the USA. In this paper German tweets of the European Flood 2013 are therefore captured and analyzed using descriptive statistics, qualitative data coding, and computational algorithms....

Comparison and Polar Opposition

My goal in this paper is to use cross-polar anomaly as an empirical basis for motivating and developing a particular approach to the semantics of gradable adjectives and the representation of adjectival polarity. Specifically, I will argue that gradable adjectives denote relations between individuals and extents, or intervals on a scale, as in the work of Seuren 1978, 1984, von Stechow 1984b, a...
