Floating and Non-floating Quantifiers in Hijazi Arabic: an HPSG Analysis
… thesis concerns the description and analysis of floating and non-floating quantifiers in Hijazi Arabic (HA) within the framework of Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG). This work is a contribution to the long-standing debate on the relation between floating and non-floating quantifiers. …

A theory of managed floating
… capital mobility adopt either independently floating exchange rates or very hard pegs (currency boards, dollarisation). As a consequence of this view which has been enshrined in the so-called impossible trinity all intermediate currency regimes are regarded as inherently unstable. As far as …

Organic molecular floating gate memories
… that utilize charge storage in polysilicon floating gates imbedded in insulating silicon oxide films'. As demands for high storage density, high chip memory capacity, and decreasing process costs continue to mount, conventional flash memory has found it challenging to continue scaling and it …

Self-propulsion of floating objects
… effects is the generation of self-propulsion of floating bodies. We examine means of interfacial propulsion employed by floating bodies. Nature utilizes dynamic and quasistatic phenomena to induce propulsion. However, we show that quasi-static propulsion due to manipulation of the shape of the …

Floating treatment wetlands for synthetic greywaterremediation
… ponds were artificially retrofitted with floating reedbed Phragmites australis to introduce, what isknown as, floating treatment wetlands (FTWs) for improving the removal efficiency of soluble contaminations from synthetic greywater (SGW) in such systems. As a corroboration to the …

Floating-Point Analog-to-Digital Converter
… at high data rates, the approach of using a floating-point analog-to-digital converter (FP-ADC) has been investigated. This approach de-links the dynamic range with the resolution, and a very wide dynamic range can be achieved by an ADC with a moderate resolution. The solution for an FP-ADC …

Floating seaweed as ephemeral neustonic habitat
… thesis demonstrate that the habitat formed by floating seaweeds is very complex. Although the presence of floating seaweeds in the neuston can, to a certain degree, be seasonally predicted (storms, seasonal release of fertile structures), the habitat that they form is still very patchy and …

Advanced controls for floating wind turbines
Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWT) is a technology that stands to spearhead the rapid growth of the offshore wind energy sector and allow the exploration of vast high quality wind resources over coastal and offshore areas with intermediate and large water depths. This generates the need for a …

Flexible dynamics of floating wind turbines
… model for a coupled analysis of offshore floating wind turbines consisting of a tower, a floating platform and a mooring system. In this multi-body, linear frequency-domain model, the tower is represented as a series of uniform Timoshenko beams connected to each other. The deflections of …

Parametric design of floating wind turbines
… it is evident that cost effective designs for floating wind turbines are needed. The next frontier for wind power is the ocean, yet development in near shore waters has been slowed by aesthetic concerns of coastal residents. Going further offshore eliminates these aesthetic concerns and has the …

Evaluation of A "Floating" Aerobics Floor
… this investigation is to evaluate a temporary "floating" concrete aerobics floor designed to prevent the force and vibrations induced by rhythmic exercises from being transmitted to the existing building floor system. The test floor is a concrete slab mounted on pressurized air springs. A series …
