Trustworthy Imagination in Embodied World Models: Structural Constraints, Reality Anchoring, and Trust Adjudication

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
World models let robots imagine alternative futures, such as successfully grasping a glass or dropping it, but visual plausibility alone does not establish trustworthiness. Here, the authors review structural constraint, reality anchoring, and trust adjudication as complementary mechanisms for shaping generation, grounding predictions in real evidence,

Preparation of multi-functional sepiolite-based foam concrete and its adsorption and thermal insulation properties

open access: yesMaterials Research Express
Foam concrete is one of the most valuable porous materials used in civil and industrial buildings. Sepiolite, a fibrous hydrous magnesium silicate, possesses exceptional qualities such as a low thermal conductivity, non-polluting nature, and eco ...

The Reflexive Turn in Systems Engineering: A Disciplinary Response to Complexity

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Future of Systems Engineering (FuSE) programme has called for the discipline to evolve as a transdiscipline capable of engaging complex eco‐socio‐technical challenges. Yet the pace of that evolution has been slower than the arguments for it would predict. This article examines why.

PLAYING WITH PREFIGURATION: Ludic Spaces and Prefigurative Organizing for Children's Right to the Mobile City

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Earlier writings on the political importance of play have discussed how it can make players conscious of the possibilities of otherwise worlds. Prefigurative politics has very similar aims, but the discussion between the two has been limited.

Research of foam concrete quality by two-stage foam injection method in comparison with classical foam concrete

open access: yesTechnobius
The article presents a method of production of foam concrete, which involves two-stage injection of foam. The proposed method involves improving the pore structure of foam concrete, due to a more uniform distribution of pores throughout the volume of the material.
