Being Biased and Knowing How to Reason

Noûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This essay explains how reasoning is action and not reflex. It then uses that theory to explain one form of knowing how to reason. Reasoning is thinking biased by knowledge. Drawing on Louise Antony's emphasis on bias as critical for dealing with underdetermination in induction, I show that underdetermination confronts all forms of reasoning ...

Computational Modeling of Decision Making Enhances the Adversity Researcher's Toolbox

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the past decades, there has been major progress in our understanding of how adversity influences cognitive abilities and strategies. However, most of this research is based on raw performance, such as response times and accuracy. These measures are informative about decision‐making outcomes but tell us little about cognitive processes. In

Common inputs to motor units are modulated by force profile and muscle length

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Groups of motor units receive common synaptic inputs from specialized networks of premotor neurons to produce movement. Here, we test whether common inputs received by motor units in the first dorsal interosseous are fixed or task‐dependent during submaximal isometric contractions.

Comparison of Amplitude‐ and Amplitude‐Frequency‐Modulated Pulses for Outer Volume Suppression in Cardiac MRI: Application to Myocardial T2 Mapping

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 5, Page 2240-2252, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose To evaluate single‐ and dual‐band pulse modules for suppressing extra‐cardiac signal in cardiac MRI, and test their applicability for time‐efficient imaging with reduced FOV in myocardial T2 mapping at 3 T. Methods Outer Volume Suppression (OVS) was implemented using two regional saturation slabs, along the phase‐encoding direction ...

Numerical Simulations of 3D Scattering Structures Reveal Systematic Underestimation of Marsquake Magnitudes

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract Determining marsquake magnitudes is essential for assessing seismic activity on Mars, yet previous estimates neglect three‐dimensional (3D) scattering effects. The exceptionally long‐lasting coda of the largest recorded marsquake, S1222a, provides a unique opportunity to quantify how crustal heterogeneities affect waveform propagation and ...

Fractional Moment Theory for Anomalous Transport: A Unified Framework for Lévy Flights, Fractals, and Complex Dynamical Systems

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 49, Issue 13, Page 14964-15009, 15 September 2026.
ABSTRACT We develop a unified mathematical framework extending classical moment theory from discrete integer orders to a continuous spectrum of real orders f>0$$ f>0 $$, providing a systematic statistical characterization of complex systems exhibiting power‐law behavior.

A New Paradigm for Understanding the Rheology and Processability of Poly(p‐Phenylene Terephthalamide) Liquid‐Crystalline Solutions

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 34, September 10, 2026.
Kevlar is traditionally modeled as a rigid‐rod polymer, yet rheological behavior deviates from this assumption. The review introduces a novel “twist‐tie” entanglement theory for aramid polymer chains in the nematic liquid crystal state, providing a molecular explanation for deviations from rigid‐rod models. Understanding twist‐tie entanglement dynamics

Development of multi-layer ballistic armor panel with simulation and ballistic tests

, 2020
Perforated armor plates are in use for many years to improve ballistic protection level of armored vehicles. Theoretically, when bullet impacted side of a hole, bending stress is generated to break incoming projectile core or at least projectile is diverted from its incident trajectory and thus reduce penetration capability.
