The Exploitation of Phenomena Related to Enunciation in a French as a Foreign Language Course Book: The Édito Example by Can Denizci

“…Methodologically, these elements thus constitute our analysis grid. The analysis of the list of utterances recommended by the course book concerning the expression of opinions leads us to the following findings: Firstly, the 1st/2nd-person pronouns/ possessive adjectives, the demonstrative pronoun ça and the presentative c’est undertake the shifting function. …”

Nonlinear mechanical response of finite-length soft composites with random dislocations by Samira Jalilvand, Moein Mirzaei, Hamze Mousavi

“…Abstract The effects of random dislocations on the vibrational properties of finite-length RNA and DNA macro-structures have been investigated by means of a harmonic Hamiltonian and the Green’s function method. The RNA molecule has been modeled using a half ladder model, and three models (a fishbone model and two different strand models) have been employed to model the structure of DNA. …”

Robust Strategy Generation for Automatic Navigation of Unmanned Surface Vehicles through Improved DDPG Algorithm by Wei Wang, Subin Huang, Huabin Diao

“…Second, we ensure the decision adaptability of the USV by constraining the extent of action change between adjacent time-steps by using a reward-function, which improves the USV-action smoothly. Finally, we design typical USV-automatic-navigation-scenarios to validate the performance of the Algorithm. …”

Energy Evolution Behavior and Mesodamage Mechanism of Crumb Rubber Concrete by Shengtong Di, Chao Jia, Weiguo Qiao, Kang Li, Kai Tong

“…The essential mechanism of different failure characteristics of CRC and NC (normal concrete) was analyzed and discussed by referring to their correlation between the microenergy evolution rule and the constitutive curve. The results show that (1) the calibrated mesoscopic physical and mechanical parameters can better reflect the mechanical characteristics of CRC materials, (2) there is a strong correlation between the mesoscopic damage threshold of CRC with different rubber contents and the proportion of dissipation energy at the peak strength, and the damage threshold of the CRC with 25% rubber mass is the largest, (3) the relationship between elastic strain energy release ratio of CRC and rubber particle contents can be fitted by the negative exponential function, and (4) the essential reasons for the different destruction characteristics of CRC and NC is that the addition of rubber particles makes more external input energy to be converted into dissipative energy required for microcracks propagation and sliding friction between particles and released step by step.…”
