    Dear list members,

    For my PhD dissertation, I am compiling a corpus of 75 research paper
    articles in the field of piezoelectricity. Although I haven't computed an
    exact word count a rough estimate is that it will be anything btw 250,000
    and 300,000 words which I believe will be a good representation of the
    targetted literature.
    Would anyone know of other corpora of very technical or scientific English
    and their size ?
    Thanks in advance
