This paper analyzes inequality systems with an arbitrary number of proper lower semicontinuous convex
constraint functions and a closed convex constraint subset of a locally convex topological vector space.
More in detail, starting from well-known results on linear systems (with…

Energy storage technologies provide an alternative solution to the problem of balancing power generation and power consumption. Redox flow cells are designed to convert and store electrical energy into chemical energy and release it in a controlled fashion when required.…

This paper presents recent advances in the areas of modeling, design, and fabrication of microwave filters for space applications. A fast and accurate hybrid analysis method, combining boundary integral resonant mode expansion (BI-RME) and integral equation (IE) techniques, is described.…

This comparative analysis of teacher-student interaction in two different instructional settings at the elementary-school level (18.3 hr in French immersion & 14.8 hr Japanese immersion) investigates the immediate effects of explicit correction, recasts, & prompts on learner uptake & repair.…

This article presents a corpus analysis designed to determine the extent to which noun endings in French are reliable predictors of grammatical gender. A corpus of 9,961 nouns appearing in 'Le Robert Junior Illustre' was analysed according to noun endings,…
