La genèse et la manifestation des structures d’un point de vue cognitiviste et (post-)structuraliste by Sébastien Miravete

“…Comment les êtres humains parviennent-ils, dès lors, à acquérir des structures et à leur donner une apparence spécifique ? Il est possible, selon nous, d’adopter une méthodologie structuraliste pour penser la genèse et la manifestation des structures, même si une telle approche peut sembler paradoxale au premier abord. …”

Mechanism of Fire Prevention with Liquid Carbon Dioxide and Application of Long-Distance Pressure-Holding Transportation Technology Based on Shallow Buried and Near-Horizontal Goaf... by Naifu Cao, Yuntao Liang

“…Moreover, it was emphasized that the higher the CO2 concentration, the higher the rise in temperature of coal oxidation, and the increase of CO2 concentration was able to affect apparent activation of coal oxidation, leading to a theoretical basis to explain the effect of CO2 in inhibiting coal spontaneous combustion. …”

Influence of magma intrusion and contact distance onthermal effects of low-temperature oxidation processes in coal by Zhijin YU, Ce JIN, Xu TANG, Zhipeng ZHANG, Hu WEN

“…And the results showed that under different air supply conditions, compared with the original coal, the initial exothermic and thermal equilibrium temperature points in the low-temperature oxidation stage were advanced by 0.2−3.4 ℃ and 1.9−18.2 ℃ for strongly eroded, weakly eroded, and homogeneous high-order coals, the total exothermic capacity was increased by 1.72%−135.75%, and the apparent activation energy was reduced by 1.62%−69.02%, and the closer the metamorphic coal was to the magma intrusion, the more oxidizing and exothermic it was, and the shorter the natural ignition period was. …”

Global Solar Radiation Models in Minas Gerais, Southeastern Brazil by Ana Flávia Martins Monteiro, Fabrina Bolzan Martins

“…Also, cluster analysis was used to group the localities (weather stations) with similar patterns of model performance, climatic classification (Köppen–Geiger and Thornthwaite), and seasonal data variability, considering minimum and maximum air temperatures, precipitation, sunshine duration, and global solar radiation. Although it is apparently simple, studies on this subject are scarce and the few existing ones in Minas Gerais have flaws, which justifies this study. …”

Accounting for observation biases associated with counts of young when estimating fecundity: case study on the arboreal-nesting red kite (Milvus milvus) by Sollmann, Rahel, Adenot, Nathalie, Spakovszky, Peter, Windt, Jendrik, Mattsson, Brady J.

“…We found that ignoring observation bias led to strong negative bias in projected population size for growing populations, but only minor negative bias in declining populations. Accounting for apparently minor biases associated with ground counts is important for ensuring accurate estimates of abundance and population dynamics especially for increasing populations. …”
