No full textIn the first place, the motion cannot get off the ground because there is no objective way to tell what jurisdictional decisions are “expansive.” In every contested jurisdictional proceeding, the respondent, at that phase of the case, will regard the court's decision as overly expansive if the court seizes jurisdiction. Whereas the claimant will not.</jats:p
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

Spray Combustion of Diesel/Bio-diesel with Water/Ethanol Emulsions
No full text本實驗主要以霧化噴嘴搭配不同駐焰器，以柴油、生質柴油為主要油料，觀察各種油料之霧化燃燒現象，在火焰長度、焰色上各種不同組份油料之比較，再將柴油與水、柴油與乙醇、生質柴油與乙醇製作成油水乳化液，觀察在同樣噴霧燃燒條件下預混油料不同所造成燃燒現象差異。
在添加乙醇後火焰呈現貧油燃燒的反應會提前發生，而火焰長度隨著空氣量的加大呈現變短的趨勢，添加水後火焰呈現因大量CO2及H2O所產生的紅焰現象，混合易揮發易燃燒組份油料時，較高的駐焰器有較好的燃燒效率，混合不易揮發不易燃燒組份油料時，較低的駐焰器有較好的燃燒效率。The spray nozzle with different frame holders and fuels are investigated. The experimental are mainly compose of Diesel and Bio-Diesel and the frame status such as color and length are fully studied. The results show that even in the same experimental environment, the distinct emulsion such as Diesel, Bio-diesel, water, and ethanol would lead to various spray combustion phenomena.
These findings also reveal that the high frame holder will promote combustion efficiency with the fuels which tend to evaporate and burn. Otherwise, the low high frame holder will increase the combustion ability with the fuels which are hard to vaporized and ignited
