Carnot and the Archetype of Waterfalls

open access: yesEntropy
Carnot treats Heat as a Force of Nature, with its typical fundamental characteristics of intensity and thermal tension (temperature and temperature difference), extension (amount of heat, i.e., caloric), and power.

Narrative comprehension and production in children with SLI: An eye movement study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This study investigates narrative comprehension and production in children with specific language impairment (SLI). Twelve children with SLI (mean age 5; 8 years) and 12 typically developing children (mean age 5; 6 years) participated in an eye-tracking ...

NanoMOF‐Based Multilevel Anti‐Counterfeiting by a Combination of Visible and Invisible Photoluminescence and Conductivity

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents novel anti‐counterfeiting tags with multilevel security features that utilize additional disguise features. They combine luminescent nanosized Ln‐MOFs with conductive polymers to multifunctional mixed‐matrix membranes and powder composites. The materials exhibit visible/NIR emission and matrix‐based conductivity even as black bodies.

Assessment of global antimicrobial resistance campaigns conducted to improve public awareness and antimicrobial use behaviours: a rapid systematic review

open access: yesBMC Public Health
Introduction Public health campaigns with a well-defined outcome behaviour have been shown to successfully alter behaviour. However, the complex nature of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) creates challenges when evaluating campaigns aimed at raising ...

Identification and Reversible Optical Switching of NV+ Centers in Diamond

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
NV+ centers in diamond are predicted to coexist with NV0 and NV– centers, but direct experimental confirmation remains challenging. Using positron annihilation spectroscopy with in situ light illumination, a charge transition NV+/0 is observed at 1.234(8) eV.

A Model of Competing Narratives [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
We formalize the argument that political disagreements can be traced to a "clash of narratives". Drawing on the "Bayesian Networks" literature, we model a narrative as a causal model that maps actions into consequences, weaving a selection of other random variables into the story.

Educating Seth: An Ecosophical Conversation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Most accounts of human activity have a particular structure that supports the accounting. Education as a human activity has over centuries, and particularly in the past century, developed a narrative structure that, while seemingly "neutral", privileges ...

Breaking the Capacity Limit for WO3 Anode‐Based Li‐Ion Batteries Using Photo‐Assisted Charging

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This image illustrates a photo‐assisted rechargeable lithium‐ion battery. (a) shows the battery structure, where light enhances electron‐hole generation in the anode, boosting ion flow. (b) compares discharging performance, revealing over 60% higher capacity under light compared to dark conditions, showcasing the benefit of light‐assisted energy ...

Mission drift in qualitative research, or moving toward a systematic review of qualitative studies, moving back to a more systematic narrative review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The paper argues that the systematic review of qualitative research is best served by reliance upon qualitative methods themselves. A case is made for strengthening the narrative literature review and using narrative itself as a method of review.
