Individual conditioning factors and system knowledge contribute to evaluation of phonological systems
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent work in Philadelphia describes a shift in the phonology of the /ae/ system. Some native Philadelphian college students are abandoning the local Philadelphian split system in favor of the more geographically-widespread Nasal system (Labov et al. 2013; Prichard and Tamminga 2012). This shift involves changing the conditioning factors that determine which tokens are tense /aeh/ and which are lax /ae/, as shown in Table 1.

Evaluation of Peak Shifting and Energy Saving Potential of Ice Storage Based Air Conditioning Systems in Iran
Thermal energy storage (TES) system has been introduced as a practical facility for shifting load from peak hours to off-peak hours. Because of different energy consumption during day and night, peak and off peak period is created on load curve. Ice storage technology which is a kind of TES system, is implemented in different points of the world with the purpose of solving load shifting problem...
