Purpose and Providence in Evolutionary Perspective: Considerations for Theological Anthropology in Light of Biocultural Evolution and Genetic Engineering

open access: yesThe Heythrop Journal, Volume 66, Issue 2, Page 157-173, March 2025.
Abstract We argue here that bringing insights from evolution and bioengineering to bear on traditional accounts of divine providence helps to illustrate just how complex providence is and how difficult it is to achieve. While other non‐human animals might exhibit greater agency in creation and its evolutionary development than has traditionally been ...

Thrust Ripple Analysis and Precise Modeling of 12/13 Slot-Pole Linear Flux-Switching Permanent Magnet Motors

open access: yesCES Transactions on Electrical Machines and Systems
Linear flux-switching permanent magnet motors (LFSPMs) have been proposed for long stator applications such as rail transit. However, the conventional linear permanent magnet synchronous motor (LPMSM) suffers from thrust ripple, which degrades the motor ...

A movable stop mechanism for the SIRE telescope [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
A movable stop mechanism (MSM) designed to activate flaps that change the size and shape of a telescope aperture stop on command is described. Operating at the cryogenic temperatures of the optical system, it consists primarily of a rotary solenoid that ...

The Virtue of Patience

open access: yesPhilosophy Compass, Volume 20, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Many traditions and worldviews have held that patience is a virtue—a habit that is morally praiseworthy.

Different ways to reach the same goal: Are the analgesic effects of different types of tactile stimuli similar?

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pain, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Background Tactile‐induced analgesia (TIA) is a phenomenon in which different types of tactile stimulation alleviate pain via different mechanisms including empathy. As TIA plays an essential role in therapeutic situations and clinical conditions, it is crucial to determine whether specific tactile stimulations confer distinct benefits ...

Analysis and Optimisation of DC‐Side Filter Capacitor Parasitic Parameters on Output Performance of Dual Three‐Phase Rectifier Synchronous Generator

open access: yesIET Electric Power Applications, Volume 19, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
The equivalent mathematical model of the double three‐phase main generator with a rectified load in an aviation starter/generator is established, and the law of the influence of the DC‐side filter capacitor and its parasitic parameters on the output performance of a salient‐pole synchronous generator is analysed by the agent‐aided optimisation method ...
