Abstract:

Grammaticalization theorists are becoming increasingly aware of the relevance of constructions to their discipline, to the point that one of its leading exponents has recently defined grammaticalization as the creation of new constructions. This is precisely the problem which construction grammarians engaging in diachronic research are addressing — or one they should be addressing, because to date diachronic construction grammar has not really taken off as a discipline. The question arises of whether grammaticalization theory could simply be turned into the historical branch of construction grammar, or whether diachronic construction grammar has its own raison d’être as a separate discipline. Since grammaticalization theoretical practice is fairly narrowly focused on the change of extant constructions along a path towards the grammatical end of the meaning continuum, there is a need for a wider discipline that also concerns itself with the primary emergence of constructions. Though grammaticalization presupposes ‘constructionalization’, the two developments need to be kept apart because not all constructions go on to grammaticalize.

Abstract:

This article describes my personal approach to theory construction. I liken the construction of a theory to the solution of a mathematical puzzle in which the answer is not in the back of the book. I touch on (a) the development of a theoretical perspective, (b) the identification of a specific problem, and (c) the development of a theory to address the problem. The article concludes with the view that in the last analysis, any approach is likely to be fruitful so long as one persists in its use and does not shift gears whenever the going gets tough.

Abstract:

There are indications that a determined effort toward theory construction is currently being mounted in SLA (Gregg, 1989, 1990; Long, 1990; Spolsky, 1989). This raises a number of epistemological issues, one of which is the question of multiple theories and lack of convergence (and the related question of distinguishing science from nonscience–and from nonsense). In a field where there are many different therorise, is the relationship between them one of complementarity or of opposition? Are there criteria for appraisal and choice? Issues relating to theory construction have received considerable attention in the literature (e.g., Lightbown, 1984; McLaughlin, 1987). This article aims to build on such initiative asking: (a) Are there multiple theories of SLA? (b) Is it a problem? and (c) what criteria have SLA researchers used to appraise and choose between theories, and how compelling are they? Following this, consideration is given to top-down and bottom-up approaches to SLA theory construction. I conclude by advancing the modest claim that rationality in SLA therory construction is possible, in spite of insistent problems.

Abstract:

The construction, operation and demolition of building have tremendous impacts on the global energy and environment. However, initial construction costs are overly concerned in traditional construction projects and the economic, social and environmental impacts are neglected, which is a crucial barrier to the promotion of the sustainable construction. Through borrowing the theory from manufacturing industry, this paper analyzed the concept of lean construction, and combined the advantage of lean thinking with the sustainable development, promoting the sustainability and maximum value of construction projects besides the realization of three main objectives - the quality, schedule, cost of the construction project. Then, this article introduced the implementation of lean construction in the sustainable construction projects based on the view of transfer, flow, and value, and finally constructed the building objectives system which is composed of the minimum cost, the condensed duration, the superior quality and the sustainability of the construction.

Abstract:

Constructionalization (the diachronic creation of conventional symbolic units at different levels of schematicity and complexity) is a process which involves a series of micro-changes at different linguistic levels. The development of what with constructions in English is argued to be a case of grammatical constructionalization, whereby aspects of a construction become more general, productive, and less compositional. Equally, parts of the construction become more fixed (involving a reduction in variability), while other parts of the construction expand. The application of principles of construction grammar to aspects of diachronic change helps to clarify the relationship between theoretical principles of language change and the analysis of naturally occurring data; equally, the study of the what with construction reveals areas of potential convergence between formal and functional approaches to syntactic change, as well as areas of difference.

Abstract:

The article provides an overview of Construction Grammar. First, a general survey of the basic principles and major strands of the grammatical theory is given. The main assumptions include the recognition that all linguistic knowledge is of the same type as knowledge in general and follows the same principles such as categorization, abstraction and generalization. In the second part, the presentation focuses on two important elements of construction grammar research: the concept of the construction as complex sign and the abandoning of the distinction between lexicon and grammar. Using examples from Ukrainian, the different relationships between constructions of different complexity and schematicity in the so-called constructicon – the common space of both lexical and grammatical knowledge – are described. It is shown, how abstract constructions offer slots for other elements and how these are constrained regarding form and meaning. In addition, the status of constructions as complex signs is assessed from the perspective of semantics and compositionality. It is highlighted that Construction Grammar rejects the assumption of compositionality and rather conceptualizes meaning as determined by the construction itself. At the same time, semantics is understood in an encyclopaedic sense, which renders the description of constructions highly detailed and language-specific.

Abstract:

Abstract Novel formats of construction-based description hold great potential for phenomena that fall through the cracks in traditional kinds of linguistic reference works. On the example of German verb argument structure constructions with a prepositional object, we demonstrate that a construction-based description of such phenomena is superior to existing lexicographic and grammaticographic treatments, but that it also poses a number of new problems. The most fundamental of these relates to the fact that construction-based analyses can be proposed on different levels of abstraction. We illustrate pertinent problems relating to the precise identification of constructional form and meaning and suggest a multi-layered descriptive format for web-based electronic reference constructica that can accommodate these challenges. Semantically, the proposed solution integrates both lumping and splitting perspectives on constructional grain size and permits users to flexibly zoom in and out on individual elements in the resource. Formally, it can capture variation in the number and marking of realised arguments as found in e.g. passives and transitivity alternations. Aspects of the theoretical controversy between Construction Grammar and Valency Theory are addressed where relevant, but our focus is on questions of description and the practical implementation of construction-based analyses in a suitable type of linguistic reference work.

Abstract:

The classical problem of stationary stabilization with respect to the state of a linear stationary control system is investigated. Efficient, easily algorithmic methods for constructing controllers of controlled systems are considered: the method of V. I. Zubov and the method of P. Brunovsky. The most successful modifications are indicated to facilitate the construction of a linear controller. A new modification of the construction of a linear regulator is proposed using the transformation of the matrix of the original system into a block-diagonal form. This modification contains all the advantages of both V. I. Zubov’s method and P. Brunovsky’s method, and allows one to reduce the problem with multidimensional control to the problem of stabilizing a set of independent subsystems with scalar control for each subsystem.

Abstract:

The links between theory and construction management (CM), and for that matter construction economics (CE), are not strong (see de Valence 2011). This may be one of the reasons why they have not gained complete acceptance as academic disciplines and are not seen as distinct branches of economics and management respectively. Another reason may be that products and production (the focus of management and economic theories respectively) are not the same as projects and project management in general, and construction projects and CM in particular.

Abstract:

Designing, testing and manufacturing new technologies is a complex process that often requires many redesigns and rethinks. There are multiple criteria a new technological product must meet. Examples include the fact that it must provide a useful function, it must execute that function efficiently and effectively and it must be user friendly. In addition, cost of production and of sale are key considerations. Generally, once the manufacturer is satisfied with the results in all the criteria, the product can be released and sold. This iterative process whereby designs for manufacturing are gradually improved is the standard engineering approach. It is an extremely reliable way to ensure your product satisfies the basic criteria you set for it at the beginning. However, this is where the intellectual effort behind the design process stops. A product is made and, potentially, sells well and follow ups designed, but often little thought is put into unintended side effects of it. Dr Nariaki Nishino, who is an Associate Professor at the Department of Technology Management for Innovation, School of Engineering in The University of Tokyo, explains that new technology often receives little scrutiny of its unplanned effects. 'This is particularly true of modern technologies involving the digitisation of previously analogue products,' he outlines. Over the last 10 years, it has been generally seen as a positive and desirable to digitise as much as possible. Particularly, it has been seen as important to integrate digitised products extensively so that data from one is shared with another, etc. 'Such data sharing and integrated technology can provide many benefits for the user, however, there are side effects and important consequences to the sharing of so much personal data,' confirms Nishino. 'These unintended consequences are known as artefacts of the product and after ignored in the design process.' More broadly, such artefacts of engineering can include a wide range of the negatives of modern life – environmental problems, loneliness, urban decay. Nishino is a key team member of the Research into Artefacts, Centre for Engineering (RACE) division at The University of Tokyo, which was set up to examine how engineering could start considering these artefacts in the design process.

Abstract:

Data analysis should be neutral relative to theory construction in order to be unbiased. Data analysis should not strongly favor one form of theory construction over others. Traditional approaches to theory construction prioritize simplicity of explanation based on parsimony using a few prominent statistically significant variables. Alternative web of causation explanations prioritize comprehensive explanations based on complexity using many small effects. This article presents argument and empirical evidence that contemporary data analytic methods are problematic for all theory construction approaches. They are especially biased against web of causation approaches to theory construction. Mathematical arguments and new empirical evidence that supports web of causation explanations are presented.

Abstract:

In the present paper, we adduce further evidence for the reality of grammatical constructions by focusing on a highly idiosyncratic configuration from Spanish, which we call the reduplicative-topic construction. This construction is a productive syntactic pattern that functions as a “constructional hedge”. The grammatical behaviors of this construction cannot be captured by syntactocentric approaches to grammar. Instead, co-ocurring multiple constraints must be taken into account, including phonological (intonation and rhythm), morphosyntactic and semantic factors. The thrust of our argument is that only a constructional approach can explain the facts needed to characterize this grammatical pattern. We conclude the paper by considering the implications of the constructional approach to syntax for linguistic theory.

Abstract:

Products, and closely associated questions of infinite loop space structure, have always been a source of trouble in higher algebraicK-theory. From the first description of the product in terms of the plus construction, up to the current tendency to let the infinite loop space machines do it, the constructions have never been completely explicit, and many mistakes have resulted.Since Waldhausen introduced the doubleQ-construction [16], there has been the tantalizing prospect of an infinite loop space structure for the nerveof theQ-constructionof an exact category, which would be understandable to the man on the street, and which also would be well-behaved with respect to products induced by biexact pairings. Gillet [3] showed that most of these conditions could be met with his introduction of the multipleQ-construction. Shimakawa [14] filled in some of the details later.

Abstract:

The purpose of this article is to select and substantiate the criteria for protective construction monitoring of main pipelines. Main pipelines are constantly exposed to influences of external and internal factors. Special protective constructions are being raised to ensure the continuous operation of the pipelines. The main goal of creating protective constructions is to minimize economic losses and preserve the environmental characteristics of the facility. All existing protective constructions can be divided into two large groups: earth work and engineering constructions. Each of these groups includes different types of the constructions. All of them are designed to ensure safety of main pipelines from a certain natural phenomenon. It is also necessary to ensure constant monitoring of their geometric state regardless the protective construction type. Various data can be used for monitoring, among which the Earth remote sensing data perform a special role. One of the main issues in the construction monitoring is the explanation of the arising measurement errors. This requires knowledge of complex precision calculations theory. It is also necessary to take into account that a visual inspection of the construction defects is imperative in any calculations. A classification of protective constructions is given. The base of the accuracy calculation theory that is necessary to substantiate the errors in the protective construction monitoring is discussed. The main accuracy standards based on this theory are highlighted. The results of the performed analysis are the numerical values of the accuracy criteria for various protective construction types.

Full text

Abstract:

I propose a comparative analysis of the locative alternation in Polish and Spanish. I adopt a constructional theory of argument structure (Goldberg (1995)), according to which the locative alternation is an epiphenomenon of the compatibility of a single verb meaning with two different constructions: the caused-motion construction and the causative + with adjunct construction. As claimed by Pinker (1989), a verb must specify a manner of motion from which a particular change of state can be obtained in order to be able to appear in both constructional schemas. However, I show through a corpus study that the compatibility between verbal and constructional meaning is further restricted by Talmy’s (1985, 1991, 2000) distinction between verb-framed and satellite-framed languages. In particular, Talmy’s lexicalization patterns theory systematically explains why both the token frequency and the type frequency of the alternating verbs are considerably higher in Polish than in Spanish.

Abstract:

Children's Counting Types takes a different approach to the study of counting than most other analyses (d. Fuson & Hall, 1983; Gelman & Gallistel, 1978). It is not concerned with the learning of number word sequences or how children acquire the ability to count sets of objects. In fact, it picks up where most other research on counting leaves off. Steffe and his colleagues define counting as the correspondence of number words with the things to be counted, which they call “unit items” or “units.” Their primary concern is the development of the ability co count increasingly abstract unit items.

Abstract:

For the development of a comprehensive explanative model on the genesis and use of the history of a historic building, an exclusively visual and aesthetic approach is not sufficient. In addition to the function, the construction is also shown as a peer design factor in the planning, architectural and artistic development. In this context, the task of the technical universities and colleges is to provide students with a far-reaching expertise in historical building construction. To achieve this goal, the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BUTE), in the context of a research programme, has taken a targeted initiative. For this purpose, a large number of historical architectural drawings were combined in a plan collection at the Department and made available for further research. With regard to the structural importance of these drawings, a systematic scientific research has been carried out.This study was supported by the National Research, Development and Innovation Office - grant No. 112906.
