Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe 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

The effect of turbulence on particle impaction om a cylinder in a cross flow
No full textParticle impaction on a cylinder in a cross flow is investigated with the use of Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS), with a focus on the effect of turbulence on the impaction efficiency. It is found that for particles with Stokes numbers in the boundary stopping mode there is up to ten times more front side impaction for turbulence with a large integral scale, than for a corresponding laminar flow. The back side impaction efficiency is also found to be influenced by the turbulence. The highest back side impaction efficiency is found for turbulence with small integral scales
J.R. Léveillé, 45th Annual ODU Literary Festival
No full textJ. R. Léveillé is a renowned figure in Franco-Manitoban and francophone literature. He is the author of over thirty interdisciplinary works of poetry, fiction, television documentaries and theater. He is included in many anthologies and his work is studied in many Canadian schools. His 2001 novel, The Setting Lake Sun (Le soleil du lac qui se couche) won the Prix Rue-Deschambault prize in 2002 and was selected for the 2020 edition of Le Combat des Livres. Some of his recent works include New York Trip (2003); Pierre Lardon (2011); Poème, Pierre, Prière (Poeme, Rock, Prayer, 2011); L\u27Invocation de Rutebeuf et the Villion (2012); Ganiishomong, ou l\u27extase du temps (2020) and Ex-Nihilo in 2021 with E.D. Blodgett. He was awarded the Manitoba Arts Council\u27s Award of Distinction in 2012
Romans en marge: les trois premières fictions de J.R. Léveillé
No full textLors de la publication des trois premières fictions de J.R. Léveillé: Tombeau (1968), La disparate (1975) et Plage (1984) – qui ont été rééditées dans l’oeuvre intitulée Romans –, la critique littéraire avait souligné le caractère d’avant-garde innovateur du style d’écriture de l’écrivain franco-manitobain. Issu d’un milieu minoritaire, et proposant des textes en marge du mainstream, J.R. Léveillé incarne, à notre avis, l’artiste postmoderne par excellence qui conçoit chaque «projet d’écriture» sous un nouvel angle expérimental. À l’instar de Rimbaud, J.R. Léveillé déploie différentes stratégies pour dérégler non seulement les sens, mais aussi «le sens», ou la cohérence attendue d’un récit. Une étude des procédés mis en oeuvre dans ces trois fictions nous permettra de voir, d’une part, comment le matériau premier du texte, à savoir les mots et les images, est manipulé par l’auteur et quel impact ces manipulations ont sur la cohérence attendue d’un récit. Nous espérons, d’autre part, pouvoir dégager la portée d’une telle écriture qui se renouvelle avec chaque nouveau titre en explorant la richesse de la marge, voire de «l’extrême marge».When the first three fictional works of Franco-Manitoban writer J.R. Léveillé were published (Tombeau, 1968, La disparate, 1975, and Plage, 1984, reissued in a single collection entitled Romans in 1995), literary critics pointed up the innovative, avant-garde character of Léveillé’s writing. J.R. Léveillé, a member of the French-speaking minority who produces writing that keeps resolutely to the fringes, is, in our opinion, the epitome of a post-modern artist, conceiving each new writing project from a new, experimental angle. Like Rimbaud, J.R. Léveillé deploys a variety of strategies to muddle not only the senses, but the meaning, direction, and coherency expected from a story. By examining the processes used in these three works of fiction, we will show, first of all, how the raw materials of the text—namely, the words and the images—are handled by the author, along with the impact that this handling has on the coherency expected from the story. Subsequently, we hope to flesh out the scope of such writing, which redefines itself with each new title, exploring the rich territory of the fringes, nay, the outer limits of the fringes
Convergence of discrete analogues of a generalization of J.R. Haddock’s conjecture
No full textAbstractThis work focuses on the asymptotic behavior of solutions for a class of neutral delay difference equations, which are discrete analogues of a generalization of J.R. Haddock’s conjecture. It is shown that every bounded solution of the equations converges to a constant. Our results improve some known results from the literature
