On the Proper Treatment of Dynamics in Cognitive Science
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract This essay examines the relevance of dynamical ideas for cognitive science. On its own, the mere mathematical idea of a dynamical system is too weak to serve as a scientific theory of anything, and dynamical approaches within cognitive science are too rich and varied to be subsumed under a single “dynamical hypothesis.” Instead, after first ...

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates the hydrodynamic influence of forward transom tapering on a displacement catamaran hull using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. Five taper configurations ranging from a vertical transom base design to a fully tapered stern (1.00B) were evaluated over a wide Froude number range (Fr = .3 to 1.0).

Precision control for gravitational wave detectors
, 2022 Gravitational Wave (GW) detectors are state-of-the-art mechatronic systems that can measure spatial distortions in the order of 10"18 meters. Two GW detectors that are currently operational are LIGO and Virgo, both of which have already measured GWs, with the first one being measured in 2015 resulting from the collision of two black holes.

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Modern industrial demand for efficient material handling in confined spaces has driven the need for overhead cranes capable of short‐distance point‐to‐point maneuvers without compromising payload stability. Conventional three‐stage shaper profiles, experiencing acceleration, cruising, and deceleration, become inefficient or infeasible for ...

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Xylella fastidiosa is a major plant pathogen affecting crops such as grapes, citrus, almonds, and olives, with potentially severe consequences for agricultural production and rural livelihoods worldwide. This paper examines the conflict around the management of the X. fastidiosa outbreak affecting olive trees in southern Italy.

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Based on turbulence diagnostics, airlines are willing to avoid up to 15% of the airspace in order to avoid a fraction of turbulence that takes up about 0.1% of the airspace. This study quantifies these three fractions using turbulence reports from commercial aircraft and ERA5 reanalysis diagnostics, revealing that the low and regionally variable ...

Characteristics of diabatically influenced cyclones with high wind damage potential in Europe
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Diabatic processes contribute, on average, 26% to the intensification of European winter storms, with diabatically driven cyclones exhibiting steeper deepening rates, stronger wind gusts, and increased precipitation. These storms are linked to enhanced warm conveyor belt (WCB) activity and develop in a warmer environment with elevated lower ...

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.This study presents improvements to the non‐hydrostatic version of the European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Integrated Forecasting System (IFS), enabling stable global simulations at 1.4‐km resolution. A systematic comparison with the hydrostatic version at resolutions from 9 to 1.4 km shows that non‐hydrostatic effects emerge in ...

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Fifteen size‐resolved aerosol samples collected during marine fog, with adjacent ambient observations, show that coarse sea salt aerosol is rapidly grown and lost in the northwest North Atlantic Ocean except when subject to extreme winds. The persistence of fog in the absence of sea salt is determined by available fine‐mode aerosol, where greater ...

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.This Perspective discusses the potential of stimuli‐responsive liquid crystal polymer bio‐interfaces in modulating cell behavior as next generation dynamic artificial scaffolds. Unlike current artificial biomaterials that have static properties, LCPs offer fast, reversible, and spatially programmable deformation that reflects the dynamic properties of ...
