Tipping the Balance in Southeast Asia? Thailand, the United States and China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Professor John Blaxland and Dr Greg Raymond's Centre of Gravity paper breaks new ground in our understanding of Thai strategic and military culture and how Thai security elites view the United States, China, and the shifting geopolitical landscape in ...

Upgrade of the Gravity Database [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A project was initiated in 2009 to upgrade the MGS gravity data by (1) re-positioning the pre-existing stations and re-reducing these, (2) addition of the missing archival information to the pre-existing database, and (3) incorporating data that have ...

The stochastic Schwinger effect

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We formulate a stochastic generalisation of the Schwinger effect, extending pair production to statistically fluctuating gauge-field backgrounds. Our approach captures realistic field configurations that are transient, inhomogeneous, and stochastic, as ...

Foot-Mediated Ground Loading and the Role of Basic and Passive Balance Point—Towards Detecting Posture Abnormalities

open access: yesApplied Sciences
(1) Background: The paper focuses on foot biomechanics in static situations. The aim was to determine the distribution of the load exerted by the human body on the ground in order to establish reference points on the foot for correct human body posture. (

Unimodular time in JT gravity: a holographic clock

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
How is a “bulk clock” encoded holographically? We address this in Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity, where a natural physical clock emerges by promoting the vacuum energy to a dynamical variable: the vacuum cosmological constant becomes a top form degree of

Terrestrial water storage change from temporal gravity variation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Recent progress in accurately monitoring temporal gravity variations by means of superconducting gravimeters and satellite geodesy provides unprecedented opportunities in closing the water balance.

Holographic observables in TsT deformations of confining theories

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We construct new families of type-IIB supergravity solutions by employing TsT transformations on the ten-dimensional geometry that arises after the uplift of the five-dimensional soliton solution of Anabalón, Nastase, and Oyarzo.

ESTIMATION OF MASS MOMENT OF INERTIA OF HUMAN BODY, WHEN BENDING FORWARD, FOR THE DESIGN OF A SELF-TRANSFER ROBOTIC FACILITY [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2016
Knowledge of Mass Moment of Inertia of human body and its segments are necessary for various problems in biomechanics and its applications. This paper focusses on the estimation of Moment of Inertia of a human body when bending forward, which is needed ...

Presentism and Quantum Gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
There is a philosophical tradition of arguing against presentism, the thesis that only presently existing things exist, on the basis of its incompatibility with fundamental physics.

Religious Insurgency and the Limits of State

open access: yesUluslararası İlişkiler Çalışmaları Dergisi
Why do states possessing overwhelming military superiority continually fail to achieve lasting political victory against religious insurgencies? This article takes a look at the that question through a comparative analysis of Boko Haram, ISIS, Hamas, and
