In particular, the study analyses the organisational pattern of mechanical engineering research articles using Swales's conceptualisation of moves and steps. In addition, the research identifies the phraseology associated with specific moves and steps. The study draws on a corpus of 120 mechanical engineering research articles, equally distributed across two sub-disciplines (mechanical systems and thermal-fluids engineering), three research traditions (experimental, theoretical and mixed methods), and two publication periods (2002-2006 and 2012-2016). It adopts an integrated methodology, intertwining various approaches and perspectives including corpus linguistics, move analysis, discourse analysis and interviews to address two main strands of research enquiry: (i) What are the properties of the rhetorical structures in terms of range, frequency, and length for each section of mechanical engineering research articles? (ii) What effect does sub-discipline, research tradition and publication date have on the rhetorical structure of research articles?"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Communication in mechanical engineering. 650 0 $a Academic writing. 650 0 $a Academic language. 650 0 $a Corpora (Linguistics) 700 1 $a PhaÌ£m, Minh MaÌÌ£n, $d 1984- $e author. 700 1 $a Barlow, Michael, $d 1950- $e author. 776 08 $i Online version: $a LeÌ, ThiÌ£ NgoÌ£c PhÆ°Æ¡ng, 1988- $t Academic discourse of mechanical engineering $d Amsterdam ; Philadelphia : John Benjamins Publishing Company, [2023] $z 9789027254504 $w (DLC) 2022052041 830 0 $a Studies in corpus linguistics ; $v v. 107. $x 1388-0373 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240202025253.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FF5F86541BC411EE999F3EC24CECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
