Discourse features of methodology sections of research articles in high-impact and non-high-impact applied linguistics journals
There is burgeoning interest in investigating targeted sub-genres of research articles apart from employing Swales’ (1994) CARS model, considered as a generalized model that apparently captures all research articles across disciplines.This study investigates the discourse features of methodology sections of research articles by employing copyrigh
Shape coexistence from lifetime and branching-ratio measurements in 68,70Ni
Shape coexistence near closed-shell nuclei, whereby states Fridge Baffle Motor associated with deformed shapes appear at relatively low excitation energy alongside spherical ones, is indicative of the rapid change in structure that can occur with the addition or removal of a few protons or neutrons.Near 68Ni (Z=28, N=40), the identification of shap
Environmental and Physiological Factors Associated With Stamina in Dogs Exercising in High Ambient Temperatures
This IACUC approved study was performed to evaluate the environmental, physiological, and hematological components that contribute to stamina following successive bouts of exercise that included searching (5-min), agility (5-min), and ball retrieve (<10-min).Regularly exercised dogs (N?=?12) were evaluated on five separate occasions.The populati
