Abstract:
The paper presents the special characteristics of the Catalan past perfect tense. In the majority of languages, and, more specifically, in neo-latin languages, similar structures, containing verbs of movement tend to modify into future tense. As opposed to this, the structure“anar + infinitive” stands for past perfect in modern Catalan. The perfect aspect component raises the question of how this tense became grammaticized, a process examined by the author from the historic pragmatic point of view. There are two main hypotheses concerning the aspect of the medieval antecedent of the structure.

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to investigate the properties associated with unaccusativity and the selection of auxiliary verbs (AUX) in the perfect tenses of the modern Romance languages. The modern languages that have a split-AUX system (such as Italian and French) operate under a principle in which some intransitive verbs select the equivalent of to be as their AUX in the compound past tenses, and others select the equivalent of to have. In research I have conducted over the past decade in the Italian language classroom, Bentley and Eythórsson’s auxiliary selection hierarchy (ASH) is best suited

The imperfect tense expresses a continuous past action which is unfinished, as the name itself indicates - im-perfectum.

In Proto-Germanic, the IE imperfect, the aorist and the perfect continue partly in the old perfect and partly in its counterpart, the preterite, while, in Proto-Slavonic, the old imperfect for non­ momentary actions was replaced by form

With the 'passé simple' (past historic) and the 'passé composé' (perfect), both of which can express past punctual actions, this difference in word order may influence tense choice. If a particular effect (contrast, emphasis...) is desired in the phrase, either the 'passé simple' or the 'passé composé' can be used to express the punctual past, the choice bei

Unevenly-distributed powder also causes internal cracks during compaction or warpage during sintering. Another problem during powder feeding is the inclusion of air with powder.

It has been often emphasized that, in Romance, the category of aspect has become subordinated to the category of tense and that the development of compound and double-compound forms was due to the necessity of recreating the opposition between perfectum and infectum, an opposition which dominated the Latin temporal system on the whole. As far as we know, there is no satisfactory explanation for this phenomenon.

Abstract:
A new explicit expressions of self-energies Πμν and Σ are introduced for photons and electrons based on the particle-hole-antiparticle representation (PHA) of Atomic Schwinger–Dyson formalism (ASD). The PHA representation describes exactly the physical processes such as particle-hole excitations (electron-hole) and particle-antiparticle excitations (electron-positron). The self-energy Σ includes both the quantum component and the classical component (classical external field and Coulomb's field), which are divided into the scalar part Σs and 4-dimensional vector parts Σ0, Σj.

Background: Dihydrofolate reductase is one of the important enzymes for thymidylate and purine synthesis in micro-organisms. A large number of drugs have been designed to inhibit microbial DHFR but over the period of time, some drugs have developed resistance and cross reactivity towards the enzyme. Over the past few decades, benzimidazoles, triazoles and their derivatives have been grabbing the attention of the synthetic chemists for their wide gamut of antibacterial and antifungal activities targeting microbial protein DHFR.

CoSb3is an example of a highly challenging case for experimental charge-density analysis due to the heavy elements (suitability factor of ∼0.01), the perfect crystallinity and the high symmetry of the compound. It is part of a family of host–guest structures that are potential candidates for use as high-performance thermoelectric materials. Obtaining and analysing accurate charge densities of the undoped host structure potentially can improve the understanding of the thermoelectric properties of this family of materials.

The Gram-positive actinobacterium Rhodococcus opacus 1CP is able to utilize several (chloro)aromatic compounds as sole carbon sources, and gene clusters for various catabolic enzymes and pathways have previously been identified. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis indicates the occurrence of a 740 kb megaplasmid, designated p1CP. Linear topology and the presence of covalently bound proteins were shown by the unchanged electrophoretic mobility after S1 nuclease treatment and by the immobility of the native plasmid during non-denaturing agarose gel electrophoresis, respectively.

ABSTRACT NorA is a Staphylococcus aureus multidrug transporter that confers resistance to structurally distinct compounds. The MgrA global regulatory protein is reported to augment norA expression when mgrA is overexpressed from an undefined plasmid-based promoter. Further details about norA regulatory mechanisms are scant. A chromosomal norA::lacZ transcriptional fusion was constructed in different S. aureus strains, and allele replacement was used to define the relevance of promoter region sequences to norA expression.

Such aetiologies guided the behaviour and approaches adopted for treatment and helped explain why biomedical and traditional healing frameworks could so readily be used in tandem. Clinical encount

SUMMARYWe describe here the detection of polarized light by the simple eyes of spiders. Using behavioural, morphological, electrophysiological and optical studies, we show that spiders have evolved two different mechanisms to resolve the e-vector of light. Wolf spiders (Lycosidae), are able to turn in response to rotation of a polarized pattern at the zenith of their visual fields, and we also describe a strip in the ventral retina of the principal (anterio-median) eyes that views this location and has receptors tiered into two layers. This provides each pair of receptors with a similar optica

An approximate yield criterion for porous ductile media at high strain rate is developed adopting energy principles. A new concept that the macroscopic stresses are composed of two parts, representing dynamic and quasi-static components, is proposed. It is found that the dynamic part of the macroscopic stresses controls the movement of the dynamic yield surface in stress space, while the quasi-static part determines the shape of the dynamic yield surface. The matrix material is idealized as rigid-perfectly plastic and obeying the von Mises yield. An approximate velocity field for the matrix is

Abstract:
Summary Fluid flow in sedimentary rocks is controlled mainly by the morphology of pore-connecting throats. Pore throats (PTs) typically exhibit diverse converging/diverging morphologies such as biconic, parabolic, or hyperbolic geometries. These different geometries are defined by variable opening angle, or angularity, between the throat walls from the narrowest point of the throat toward the pore body. Importantly, each of these geometries imposes different constraints on fluid flow. However, current pore-level flow models usually favor simple cylindrical or biconic throat morphologies, in pa
