connor et al. (2008) mention “specifying textual requirements of genres” (p.12) as one of the reasons which have motivated researchers in the analysis of writing. members of each genre should be able to produce and retrieve these textual requirements appropriately to be considered communicatively proficient. one of the textual requirements of genres is regularities of specific forms and content...

Lexical bundles are frequent word combinations that commonly appear in different registers. They have been the subject of much research in the area of corpus linguistics during the last decade. While most previous studies of bundles have mainly focused on variations in the use of these word combinations across different registers and a number of disciplines, not much research has been done to e...

Formulaic sequence (FS) is a general term often used to refer to various types of recurrent clusters. One particular type of FSs common in different registers is lexical bundles (LBs). This study investigated whether LBs are stored and processed as a whole in the mind of language users and whether their functional discourse type has any effect on their processing. To serve these objectives, thr...

The purpose of this study was to gain more information on the structure of different layers of renal arteryand comparing these structures in post-natal male and female sheep. To do so, right and left renal arteries of6 adult and 6 newborn animals were dissected; the middle parts of arteries were only collected. After tissueprocessing using paraffin embedding method, 5–6-μm sections were cut and...

Today, IT-support for enterprises is increasingly delivered as a commercial service. Consequently, IT-service provisioning requires at least two enterprises, a seller and a buyer. Moreover, the seller itself can often be considered as a network of enterprises, jointly satisfying an IT-need of a buyer, thereby utilizing each other strengths. In this paper, we contribute an ontologically well-fou...

nanocomposites made of carbon nanotube (cnt) bundles have attracted researchers’ attention due to their unusual properties such as: light weight, flexibility and stiffness.  in this paper, the effects of straight and rope-shaped bundles on nanocomposite effective mechanical properties are investigated.  first, fea models are created consisting of cnts with different shapes of straight and rope-...
