A GRADUALIST SCENARIO FOR LANGUAGE EVOLUTION: PRECISE LINGUISTIC RECONSTRUCTION OF EARLY HUMAN (AND NEANDERTAL) GRAMMARS

A Gradualist Scenario for Language Evolution: Precise Linguistic Reconstruction of Early Human (and Neandertal) Grammars

In making an argument for the antiquity of language, based on comparative evidence, Dediu & Levinson (2013) express hope NIACIN NO-FLUSH that some combinations of structural features will prove so conservative that they will allow deep linguistic reconstruction.I propose that the earliest stages of syntax/grammar as reconstructed in Progovac (2015a

How Nanoscale Dislocation Reactions Govern Low- Temperature and High-Stress Creep of Ni-Base Single Crystal Superalloys

The present work investigates γ-channel dislocation reactions, which govern low-temperature (T = 750 °C) and high-stress (resolved shear stress: 300 MPa) creep of Ni-base single crystal superalloys (SX).It is well known that two dislocation families with different b-vectors are required to form planar faults, which can shear the ordered &
