Publishing your research in an international journal is key to your success in academia. This guide is based on a study of referees' reports and letters from journal editors on reasons why papers written by non-native researchers are rejected due to problems with English usage. It draws on English-related errors from around 5000 papers written by non-native authors, 500 abstracts by PhD students, and over 1000 hours of teaching researchers how to write and present research papers.
With easy-to-follow rules and tips, and with examples taken from published and unpublished papers, you will learn how to:
* prepare and structure a manuscript
* increase readability and reduce the number of mistakes you make in English by writing concisely, with no redundancy and no ambiguity
* plan and organize your paper, and structure each paragraph and each sentence so that the reader can easily follow the logical build-up towards various conclusions
* write a title and an abstract that will attract attention and be read
* decide what to include in the various parts of the paper (Introduction, Methodology, Discussion etc)
* select from over 700 useful phrases
* highlight your claims and contribution
* avoid plagiarism and make it 100% clear whether you are referring to your own work or someone else’s
* choose the correct tenses and style (active or passive)

Abstract
Explores ways of minimising risk and advises on sources to approach to find records of existing construction. Considers preliminary investigation of an existing building or structure and what type of contract to adopt, as well as disasters, defects and potential solutions. Address restraints through town and planning legislation and includes case studies.

Concrete repairs. Performance in service and current practice
Author: Tilly, G. P. and Jacobs, J. | Size: 5.01 MB | Format:PDF | Year: 2007 | pages: 56 | ISBN: 9781860819704
Abstract
Describes four elements of the work carried out by the CONREPNET network, whose aim is to improve the durability of concrete repairs through performance-based rehabilitation: performance of repairs in practice in order to evaluate more accurately the durability of repairs over real time, current industry practice in relation to inspection, interpretation of results and methods of repair, current research including sizes of projects, levels of funding, research topics and outcomes, and best practice, including use of national standards.

I intend this for the undergraduate level, providing a one-semester bridge between some of the introductory math courses and the physics courses in which we expect to use the mathematics. This is the course typically called Mathematical Methods in Physics. The text itself has been expanded so that it now contains far more than a one semester course.

Author: Mihir Sen, Joseph M. Powers | Size: 3.8 MB | Format:PDF | Publisher: University of Notre Dame | Year: 2010 | pages: 432
Multidimensional calculus, linear analysis, linear operators, vector algebra, ordinary differential equations. The course is directed at first year graduate students in engineering. It is open to undergraduates who wish to become better prepared for graduate studies or become more proficient in the techniques of applied mathematics.

Mathematical Linguistics introduces the mathematical foundations of linguistics to computer scientists, engineers, and mathematicians interested in natural language processing. The book presents linguistics as a cumulative body of knowledge from the ground up: no prior knowledge of linguistics is assumed. As the first textbook of its kind, this book is useful for those in information science and in natural language technologies.

this text provides the students with simple "cookbook" recipes for solving problems they might face in their studies of economics. Since the target audience was supposed to have some mathematical background (admittance to the program requires at least BA level mathematics), the main goal was to refresh students' knowledge of mathematics rather than teach them math "from scratch".

The text focuses on use of spectral methods to solve boundary value, eigenvalue, and time-dependent problems, but also covers Hermite, Laguerre, rational Chebyshev, sinc, and spherical harmonic functions, as well as cardinal functions, linear eigenvalue problems, matrix-solving methods, coordinate transformations, methods for unbounded intervals, spherical and cylindrical geometry, and much more.
