An excerpt on the analysis of correlate constructions: Exkurs zur Analyse der Korrelatkonstruktionen
...Show More Authors

The main idea that led me to write such research paper within the framework of Germanic linguistics is that I have not found any topic dealing with the term correlate in the German language, except in several articles in linguistic journals as well as one topic in a book describing the use of such a linguistic phenomenon in the language system. The research initially deals with the definition of the correlate at the level of the German language system. Correlate is unity describes specific relation of two sentences and identifies denoted constructs. Correlate is called a placeholder at the syntactic level because it does not occupy its original topological fields in the syntactic structure. The correlate (es) or the prepositional adverbs or adverbs can occur in the matrix clause, it is the second feature. The third categorical feature of the correlate is morphological, in that the correlate is inflexible and the last feature shows that the correlate does not confer case features on its syntactic environment, where the correlate possesses the matrix clause. The correlate can appear as the first part of the complex connector in the subordinate clause or the infinitive construction. The last feature refers to the fact that the correlate construction can be attributive in the complex sentence, whereby the sentence structure, which is the constituent of attributively formed correlate specifiers, is embedded.

The research presents the conceptual content of the linguistic expression described by the correlate, functioning as a pro-element in the major premise and considered as a dentate. It is a matter of denotation of the correlate and deictic expressions. Furthermore, the present research sheds light on the obligatory and optional use of the correlate constructions in the German sentence. In German there are correlates when using certain verbs. In addition, certain linguistic constructions or expressions require correlates of both particles and prepositional adverbs. The reasons for this are contextual and communicative aspects.

In relation to the contextual-communicative aspects such as verbs affect the connection with the correlate. She signals the connection through the grade particles. Compared to other verbs, the use of the correlate (es) is reduced. The reason for this is the appearance of degree particles as well, even, at most, only, only. This can be the case if the grading of the text passage does not focus on the extreme predicate, but rather on the infinitive construction or the subordinate clause. This was studied at work.

Then it was examined how the correlate constructions occur with certain subjunctives by dividing them into two forms, namely attributive correlate constructions and left displacement constructions. If the correlate occurs before the subjunctive phrase, it is called an attributive correlate construction. This form is also called a correlate specifier. The subjunctive phrase has the function of being an attribute for the correlate. They can be directly followed by the correlate, whereby it is possible that the correlate alone carries the main clause after deducting the so-called phrase.

Zusammenfassung

Die Hauptidee besteht darin, wie sich das Phänomen Korrelat im deutschen Sprachsystem anwenden lassen. Solche Forshchungsarbeit verortert sich im Rahmen der germanistischen Sprachwissenschaft. Da Sprachstudien – über ihre linguistische Relevanz hinaus – auch den Lernenden nützliches empirisches bzw. didaktisches Material zur Wortschatzerweiterung einen Überblick erarbeitet, spielt doch die linguistische Forschungsarbeit eine große Rolle bei der Verbesserung der Sprachkompetenz und der Syntaxverfahren. Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit Korrelatkonstruktionen im Deutschen. Es geht um die Konnektstellungsmöglichkeiten und topologische Felder der relevanten sprachlichen Ausdrücke in dem deutschen Text. Der Ausgangspunkt ist dezidiert die deutsche Sprache. Anhand der vorliegenden Arbeit werden die Fragen gestellt, ob es kategoriale Merkmale für die Korrelatestellung gibt oder welche spachsystematischen Voraussetzungen die Anwendung des Korrelates bestimmen. Des Weiteren wird in dieser Arbeit beleuchtet, was der Grund dafür ist, dass das es als Korrelat genannt wird. Das grammatikalische es, bestimmte Adverbien wie sogar, nur und die Partikel wie auch gehören zu den unterschiedlichen Subklassen der Wortarten. Die deutschen Grammatiken gehen darin in ihren Publikationen nicht ein. Die vorliegende Forschung untersucht diese Problematik.

Die Forschung untersucht den begrifflichen Inhalt des sprachlichen Ausdrucks, den das Korrelat beschreibt, wobei es im Obersatz als Pro-Element fungiert und als Denotat betrachtet wird. Es handelt sich um Denotat des Korrelats und deiktische Ausdrücke. Des Weiteren beleuchtet die vorliegende Forschung obligatorischen und fakultativen Gebrauch der Korrelatkonstruktionen in dem deutschen Satz. Im Deutschen stehen Korrelate bei der Verwendung bestimmter Verben. Daneben fordern bestimmte sprachliche Konstruktionen bzw. Ausdrücke Korrelate sowohl Partikeln als auch Präpositionaladverbien. Die Gründe dafür sind kontextuelle sowie kommunikative Aspekte.

Defect monitoring in dissimilar friction stir welding of aluminum alloys using Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) finite element model
...Show More Authors

This article uses coupled Eulerian–Lagrangian finite element algorithm to conduct a three-dimensional thermomechanical study to capture the shape and characteristics of defect type generated while achieving the dissimilar friction stir welding of aluminium alloys. The volume-of-fluid method is used to model the Eulerian region and predict the localised formation of process defects. Three different tool shapes are utilised to achieve the dissimilar friction stir welding joining between AA 2024-T3 on the advancing side and AA 6061-T6 on the retreating side. Process parameter effects such as rotational tool speed, traverse tool speed and tool tilt angle are also investigated. The finite element model results are validated by comparing with t

DNA Methylation Patterns of Interferon Gamma Gene Promoter and Serum Level in Pulmonary Tuberculosis: Their Role in Prognosis
...Show More Authors

Tuberculosis (TB) still remains an important medical problem due to high levels of morbidity and mortality worldwide. A series of innate immune mechanisms that create a cytokine network control the pathogenesis of tuberculosis and this response has the capacity to modify the host genomic DNA structure through epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation which could constantly alter the local gene expression pattern that can modulate the metabolism of the tissues and the immune-response. Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) is an important pro-inflammatory cytokine regulator of the innate immune response to TB. This study aims to determine DNA methylation patterns of INF-γ gene promoter and measure serum IFN- γ level in newly diagnosed TB patient

Strength and Deformation of Concrete-Encased Grouting-Filled Steel Tubes Columns Exposed to Monotonic Quasi-Static Loading Conditions
...Show More Authors

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel concrete-encased column (CE) using small circular steel tubes filled with cementitious grouting material (GFST) as the primary reinforcement instead of traditional steel bars. The research involved three different types of reinforcement: conventional steel bars, concrete-filled steel tubes with 30% of the reinforcement ratio of steel bars, and concrete-filled steel tubes with the same reinforcement ratio as steel bars. Twenty-four circular concrete columns were tested and categorized into six groups based on the type of reinforcement employed. Each group comprised four columns, with one subjected to concentric axial load, two subjected to eccentric axial load (with eccentrici
