Animal Logic: Locke and the Nature of Inference
ABSTRACT Can animals reason? If so, what would their reasoning consist in, and how, if at all, would it differ from its human counterpart? On these questions, John Locke stakes out a position that also merits consideration today. I argue that, for Locke, reasoning is a matter of the subject's construing her mental states as support for a conclusion ...

Toxic utopia: Unseen ideology and “Le Politique” in China Miéville's The City & The City
Abstract What if ideology were not just hidden—but aesthetic? This article reads China Miéville's The City & The City not as a metaphor for division, but as a speculative blueprint for how politics operates through enforced invisibility.

ABSTRACT This paper enacts a feminist‐posthumanist reimagining of gender as ontological disturbance, using magical realism not as metaphor but as epistemological method.

Abstract The melting point depression of water confined in porous media with varying pore sizes has been widely observed. Existing models remain insufficient for describing water phase change in smaller pores (i.e., nano pore), where surface effects become significant and water molecules are inhomogeneously distributed near solid surface.

Abstract Traditional static designs of urban stormwater storage systems are increasingly inadequate for addressing extreme rainfalls. Recent advances highlight optimizing both spatial layout and real‐time control (RTC) of storage facilities, yet most of these decisions are made sequentially, overlooking how layout constraints can affect RTC efficiency ...
