background and objective: the quality of flat breads depends in part on the textural and structural properties of breads during storage. these properties are largely affected by flour quality. this research aimed at evaluating textural and structural properties of lavash bread types during storage by different techniques, comparing these methods and determination of correlation between their re...

This paper proposes an analysis of a relatively under described existential construction in Tagalog. This construction at first glance appears to embed a relative clause under the existential predicate. However, it differs from this type of existential in two crucial respects. The complement of the existential verb allows extraction, demonstrating that it is not a DP. Additionally, rather asser...

First time, an analytical two-dimensional (2D) elasticity solution for arbitrarily supported axially functionally graded (FG) beam is developed. Linear gradation of the material property along the axis of the beam is considered. Using the strain displacement and constitutive relations, governing partial differential equations (PDEs) is obtained by employing Ressiner mixed var...

Abstract interpretation is an excellent tool for designing complete dataflow analyses [6]. Existential quantification is an excellent tool for designing precise dataflow analyses. However, these two tools are difficult to combine. Abstract interpretation requires algorithms for deciding subtypes and constructing joins. This is problematic for existential quantification because simply subtyping ...

BACKGROUND A majority of people in Western Europe and the USA die in hospitals. Spiritual and existential care is seen to be an integral component of holistic, compassionate and comprehensive palliative care. Yet, several studies show that many nurses are anxious and uncertain about engaging in spiritual and existential care for the dying. The aim of this study is to describe nurses' experience...

We consider two kinds of reeective relational machines: the usual ones, which use rst order queries, and existential reeective machines, which use only rst order existential queries. We compare these two computation models. We build on already existing results for standard relational machines, obtained by Abiteboul, Papadimitriou and Vianu APV], so we prove only results for existential machines...
