Simulation-Guided Path Optimization for Resolving Interlocked Hook-Shaped Components
Manipulators performing pick-and-place tasks with objects of complex shapes must consider not only how to grasp the objects but also how to maneuver them out of a bin.

History and Necessity of Convergence with the Social Sciences [PDF]
Reconsidering the history would be a mental task and historian’s mind is shaped in the structural ground of society in which he lives. Having the date of the study and the analysis of the structural elements of the society in the past centuries in line ...

The governance of Scottish ferry services [PDF]
In this paper we argue that the present arrangements for review and implementation of Scottish Ferry policy are not competent and that, in particular the role and functions of Transport Scotland should be replaced by an independent regulator supported ...

Railway traffic disturbance management by means of control strategies applied to operations in the transit system [PDF]
Railway systems in metropolitan areas support a high density of daily traffic that is exposed to different types of disturbances in the service. An interesting topic in the literature is to obtain action protocols in the presence of contingencies which ...

Constant curvature black holes in Einstein AdS gravity: Euclidean action and thermodynamics
We compute the Euclidean action for constant curvature black holes (CCBHs), as an attempt to associate thermodynamic quantities to these solutions of Einstein anti-de Sitter (AdS) gravity.

Marginally trapped tubes and dynamical horizons
We investigate the generic behaviour of marginally trapped tubes (roughly time-evolved apparent horizons) using simple, spherically symmetric examples of dust and scalar field collapse/accretion onto pre-existing black holes.

Experimental economics: science or what? [PDF]
Do we want experimental economics to evolve into a genuine science? This paper uses the literature on inequity aversion as a case study in warning that we are at risk of losing the respect of other scientific disciplines if we continue to accept the ...

Eternal Inflation: The Inside Story
Motivated by the lessons of black hole complementarity, we develop a causal patch description of eternal inflation. We argue that an observer cannot ascribe a semiclassical geometry to regions outside his horizon, because the large-scale metric is ...

Comparing Different Information Levels [PDF]
Given a sequence of random variables ${\bf X}=X_1,X_2,\ldots$ suppose the aim is to maximize one's return by picking a `favorable' $X_i$. Obviously, the expected payoff crucially depends on the information at hand.
