In this paper, we explicate the method of Investigative Ordinary Language Philosophy (IOLP). The term was coined by John Cook to describe unique philosophical approach Frank Ebersole. We argue that (i) IOLP is an overlooked yet valuable grounded in our everyday experiences and concerns; (ii) as such, Ebersole important but neglected figure history ordinary language philosophy.

drain envelopes play significant roles in the performance of drainage systems due to theirreduction in letting sediments into the drainpipes and also because of an increase in thehydraulic conductivity of soil around the drainpipes. throughout the present research, theeffect of a one 1000 hour flow on dual envelopes consisting of geotextile as a means ofimproving the hydraulic gradient and rice...

We will focus on the case where x can be solved for explicitly, i.e., the equation takes the form x = f(t, x, x, . . . , x), and where the function f mapping a subset of R×(F) into F is continuous. This equation is called an m-order n × n system of ODE’s. Note that if x is a solution defined on an interval I ⊂ R then the existence of x on I (including one-sided limits at the endpoints of I) imp...

This paper presents an ethnomethodologically informed study of the ways that more-or-less dependable systems are part of the everyday lifeworld of society members. Through case study material we explicate how dependability is a practical achievement and how notions of dependability are constituted as practical achievements. We show how attending to the logical grammar of dependability can clari...

Since their Newtonian inception, differential equations have been a fundamental tool for modeling the natural world. As the name suggests, these equations involve the derivatives of dependent variables (e.g. viral load, species densities, genotypic frequencies) with respect to independent variables (e.g. time, space). When the independent variable is scalar, the differential equation is called ...

Web search engines have become the dominant tools for finding information on the Internet. Due to their popularity, users apply them to a wide range of search needs, from simple look-ups to rather complex information tasks. This paper presents the results of a study that investigated the characteristics of these complex information needs in the context of Web search engines. The aim of the stud...

subject to the constraint that q(0) and q(h) are constant. Standard ODE theory provides existence and uniqueness of the corresponding initial value problem because the derivatives q~(t) of the evolution curves q(t) are the integral curves of the corresponding Lagrangian vector field XE. Given two nearby ql, q2 6 Q, does there exist a unique evolution curve q(t) such that q(0) = q~ and q(h) = q2...
