Enormous progress has been made during the past ten years in developing professional and operational standards within the field. However, to date, there still exists no standard of care within TEMS specifically, and more broadly for high threat pre-hospital trauma care. Current civilian ...

We investigate the conditions under which quasianalysis, i.e., Carnap’s method of abstraction in his Aufbau, yields adequate results. In particular, we state both necessary and sufficient conditions for the socalled faithfulness and fullness of quasianalysis, and analyze adequacy as the conjunction of faithfulness and fullness. It is shown that there is no method of (re-)constructing properties...

In this paper, we are dealing with the ill-posed Cauchy problem for an elliptic operator. To do this, interpret as inverse problem, and therefore a controllability problem. This point of view induces regularization method that makes it possible, on one hand, to characterize existence regular solution On other possible obtain singular optimality system optimal control, without resorting any addi...

The present study was conducted at the Córrego Andorinha on the eastern slope of Ilha Grande and aimed to determine the alimentary daily rhythm of Bryconamericus microcephalus. Fishes were sampled at a 4 hours interval over a 24 hours period during winter 2002 and summer 2003. Gut fullness was determined according to a numerical scale ranging from 0 (empty gut) to 3 (full gut). No differences w...

What makes be omissions possible? An obvious candidate answer that has long been entertained is simply this: be is semantically empty, hence a good choice to omit under performance-related pressures (cf. Brown & Fraser 1963). This would make beomission expected in all child languages. What would this hypothesis lead us to expect about the infinitive form of be? In terms of semantic vacuity, non...
