Assuming with Boškoviƒ (1997), who adopts Split I, that sentential adverbs are TP-adjoined, Stjepanoviƒ suggests SC Vs move to T. She also suggests the movement is optional due to Pravilno odgovara Mileni, where pravilno is ambiguous (it can have sentential reading). As in English, there is a V/aux contrast in SC: in contrast to Vs, auxiliaries can precede sentential adverbs (clitics are given ...

To search for secondary metabolites of Alnus hirsuta (Betulaceae), various chromatographic separations of the ethyl acetate soluble fraction of the stem bark of A. hirsuta led to the isolation of a new diarylheptanoid glycoside, (3R)-1,7-bis-(4-dihydroxyphenyl)-3-heptanol 3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->3)-beta-D-xylopyranoside (13) and twelve diarylheptanoid derivatives, namely, oregonin (1), ru...

In terms of the stock exchange returns, we compute the analytic expression of the probability distributions FDAX,+ and FDAX,− of the normalized positive and negative DAX (Germany) index daily returns r(t). Furthermore, we define the α re-scaled DAX daily index positive returns r(t) and negative returns (−r(t)) that we call, after normalization, the α positive fluctuations and α negative fluctua...

The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of virulence genes in 46 coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) strains isolated from 46 udder quarters of 46 cows with subclinical mastitis. The isolates were examined phenotypically (cultural features, Gram stain, catalase, coagulase, API tests) and genotypically for: icaA, icaAB, icaD, atlE, bhp, agrA, sarA, mecA, and blaZ genes. These is...

Abstract Although target detection algorithms based on deep learning have achieved good results in the of side-scan sonar underwater targets, their false and missed rates are high for multiple densely arranged overlapping targets. To address this problem, a segmentation model blended hybrid dilated convolution pyramid split attention UNet (BHP-UNet) algorithm is proposed paper. First, module ad...

Reading is an essential skill for functioning in modern society, fundamental to achievement and success. Yet, an alarming proportion of students have significant difficulties with reading. Research indicates that computer assisted instruction (CAI) can provide an effective educational tool to help poor readers. This case study investigates the effectiveness of a CAI reading tutorial in helping ...

According to the report of the United Nations, it is said that two-third of world population would be influenced by water shortage before 2050. To use fresh water effectively, the usage of seawater in concrete industry seems imperative. However, the usage of seawater as concrete material is prohibited in almost all the standards or specifications around the world. In this article, the usage of ...

In the majority of cases, steel production constitutes the inception of the Supply Chains they are involved just as in automotive clusters or aerospace. Steel manufacturing companies are affected strongest by bull whip effects or other unpredictable influences along the production chain to the customers. Therefore, flexible planning and realisation as well as fast reorganisation after interfere...
