The inference-boundary model reinterpreting theme and rheme by Leong, Ping Alvin

“…The Hallidayan notions of theme and rheme pose an interesting challenge to linguists in their attempts to pin them down more specifically. This paper argues that since the thematic structure of the clause organises it as a message, a useful starting point in theme–rheme research is an understanding of how clausal messages are typically processed by language users. …”

Experimental and numerical study of self-locking adaptable inter connection for modular steel structures by Nadeem, Gohar, Safiee, Nor Azizi, Bakar, Nabilah Abu, Karim, Izian Abd, Mohd Nasir, Noor Azline

“…The findings indicated that the gap produced between connection and column under higher displacement was sensitive to the outer bolt and spring pin. This gap could be further reduced by increasing the number of outer bolts and by reducing tolerance between adapter and column walls.…”

Archaia Phusis: the original nature of the soul in Plato’s Middle Dialogues by Körner, H

“…<em>Phronēsis</em> is the true way of having virtue of character because it purifies the soul from bodily beliefs, desires, and fears (<em>Phaedo</em>, <em>Republic</em>), a process which the <em>Phaedrus</em> depicts as a regrowing of the soul’s wings.</p> <p>Tracing the theme of the soul’s <em>archaia phusis</em> in these dialogues touches on central questions in the study of Plato: do the soul’s lower parts survive in our fully purified condition? …”
