Directional Footing, Degeneracy, and Alignment

چکیده
This paper argues from an Optimality Theory (OT; Prince & Smolensky 1991, 1993; McCarthy & Prince 1993a,b, 1994) perspective that no one-to-one correspondence exists between directional footing effects and individual constraints. Rather, the requirements of a single prosodic alignment constraint may result either in left-to-right or right-to-left footing, depending on its position in a constraint hierarchy relative to constraints which require syllable-to-foot parsing and binary foot structure. We show, furthermore, that an OT approach predicts a dependency between direction of footing and the treatment of stray syllables not predicted under other accounts.

Intrusion of Geomesh in Gypseous Soil Under Single Footing
Methods to improve bearing capacity of footing resting of collapsing soil can, in fact, take two approaches, improving soil strength properties and intrusion of reinforcing sorces into soil. The footing is modeled by a square steel plate 0.1 by 0.1 m. The footing is loaded as to have a stress of 40 kPa and settlement is receded in dry and in soaking conditions. Two depths of the geo-mesh reinfo...
متن کاملBehavior of Model Circular Footings on Silty Soils with Cellular Supports
An experimental study of the effect of silt and influence of cell confinement on the bearing capacity of circular footings on silty sand was carried out. Laboratory experiments on clean sand and sand containing silt up to 25 % were performed. Cells with different heights and diameters were used to confine the silty sand. The effect of proportion of silt in sand, cell diameter, cell height and t...
متن کاملAlignment signal extraction of the optically degenerate RSE interferometer using the wave front sensing technique
The alignment sensing and control scheme of the resonant sideband extraction interferometer is still an unsettled issue for the next-generation gravitational wave antennas. The issue is that it is difficult to extract separate error signals for all 12 angular degrees of freedom, which is mainly arising from the complexity of the optical system and cavity “degeneracy”. We have suggested a new se...
متن کاملProperties of the Genetic Code under Directional, Asymmetric Mutational Pressure
We have used the Monte Carlo method for simulating the evolution of protein coding sequences from the Borrelia burgdorferi genome under the directional mutational pressure, described by the nucleotide substitution matrix experimentally found for this genome. Since the mutational pressure is asymmetric – different for each of the two DNA strands, and the coding sequences are also asymmetric, the...
متن کاملPrimaclade - a flexible tool to find conserved PCR primers across multiple species
Primaclade is a web-based application that accepts a multiple species nucleotide alignment file as input and identifies a set of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers that will bind across the alignment. Primaclade iteratively runs the Primer3 application for each alignment sequence and collates the results. Primaclade creates an HTML results page that recaps the original alignment, provides ...
