Fatigue crack usually initiates at welded joints of structural elements. For a high-responsibility aeronautic component, called Motor-Cradle - critical to the flight safety -, successive weld repairs are carried out toward ...

It is shown that sluicing sentences involving the unexpected absence of "else" modification for the wh-remnant (Barros 2012) are best analyzed as instances of island repair under ellipsis, specifically, as repair of the ...
