A model of intonational phonology of Singapore Malay by Diyana Hamzah

“…The study found evidence for two levels of prosodic phrasing (i.e., accentual phrase and intonational phrase), with edge tone(s) associated to their periphery. Focus is marked by a bitonal pitch accent, which triggers a lowering of post-focus peaks.…”

Coenesthesia or the immediate feeling of existence: Maine de Biran and the problem of the unconscious between physiology and philosophy by Aloisi, A

“…What Biran emphasized, in his philosophical appropriation of “coenesthesia,” is the impersonal and mostly unconscious nature of this feeling, which never leaves us and plays a key role in the shaping of our personal and conscious life, unnoticeably influencing the course of our ideas, our character, and the emotional tone of our perception of the world. The purpose of this article is to study Biran’s philosophical use of the notion of “coenesthesia” in the last phase of his philosophical reflection (1823–1824) in relation to the emergence of the problem of the unconscious.…”

Rapid modulation of striatal cholinergic interneurons and dopamine release by satellite astrocytes by Stedehouder, J, Roberts, B, Raina, S, Bossi, S, Liu, AKA, Doig, N, McGerty, K, Magill, P, Parkkinen, L, Cragg, S

Effect of turbine motion on floating off shore wind turbine aerodynamics by Tignol, Bo Junior

“…Finally, future work should also further hone in on the inclusion of LES at different freestream wind and surge and pitch combinations to explore the potential formation of complex wake states, as well as the investigation of in-sync and out-of-sync joint pitch-and-surge cases to explore the occurrence of any nonlinear aerodynamic interactions.…”

A Slip Gap of the 2016 Mw 6.6 Muji, Xinjiang, China, Earthquake Inferred from Sentinel‐1 TOPS Interferometry by Feng, Wanpeng, Tian, Yunfeng, Zhang, Yong, Samsonov, Sergey, Almeida, Rafael, Liu, Peng

“…The inverted best‐fitting coseismic slip model in this study shows that the mainshock was a right‐lateral strike‐slip rupture on the western segment of the Muji fault, with an optimal dip angle of 80°±4°. Two separated slip zones exist in the coseismic slip model, with the maximum slip of 1.6 m located in the western slip zone. …”

Flow structures in evolving scour holes caused by a plunging jet downstream of a weir by Si, Jin-Hua, Lim, Siow-Yong, Wang, Xi-Kun

“…As the scour hole developed, the regions of significant TKE moved successively away from the bed with a reduction in scour rate. The plunging jet zone had negative Reynolds shear stress (RSS), and absolute values there were larger than in other zones in the scour hole. …”
