Modal Logic and Modal Metaphysics: An Avicennian Division of Labour
ABSTRACT This paper argues that Avicenna was both a necessitarian and a realist about contingency. The two aspects of his modal metaphysics are reconciled by arguing that Avicenna's modal metaphysics is founded on realism about essences: strictly speaking, an individual has no contingent properties, but a modal distinction can be made between the ...

Resilience and Sorites in the Normative Domain and Beyond
ABSTRACT The sorites paradox is central to theories on vagueness, which aim to explain apparent contradictions. Some theories, however, imply sharp cut‐offs where we would, intuitively, not expect them. This paper invokes the notion of normative resilience to address this issue.

Sustainable Supply Chains Are More Resilient, and Vice Versa? If Only It Were That Simple!
ABSTRACT This paper scrutinizes the concepts of sustainability and resilience in the context of logistics and supply chain management. Building on foundational principles of sustainability, namely efficiency, consistency, and sufficiency, and on principles of resilience, namely persistence, adaptation, and transformation, we examine their ...

ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

ABSTRACT The objective of this in vitro experimental was to determine the utility of hemoadsorption (HA) using the CytoSorb adsorber to remove meloxicam and diclofenac from porcine plasma. For this purpose 12 1‐L aliquots of porcine plasma, 6 units were spiked with 293 μg/mL (262–320 μg/mL) diclofenac and 6 with 42.8 μg/mL (41.4–44.7 μg/mL) meloxicam ...

A scalable mining of frequent quadratic concepts in d-folksonomies
Folksonomy mining is grasping the interest of web 2.0 community since it represents the core data of social resource sharing systems. However, a scrutiny of the related works interested in mining folksonomies unveils that the time stamp dimension has not

Non‐negative matrix factorization (NMF) can derive tissue features in a data‐driven manner without relying on biophysical model assumptions. First‐time application of NMF to 3D multi‐echo UTE knee MRI revealed four reproducible components associated with tissues of fast and slow transverse relaxation, water–fat mixture (chemical shift), and fat tissue.

Multilayer Cellulose Acetate–Viscose Films for Bio‐Based, Bio‐Degradable Packaging Applications
Cellulose acetate (CA) and cellulose foils stick together comprehensively after mild cellulose sodium hydroxide treatment and heated compression. For combined foils, water barrier properties correlate with CA thickness. Oxygen permeation suffers due to the sodium hydroxide pre‐treatment induced foil changes. The composite represents a biodegradable and
