Not Even Newton's Word: Authority and Resistance in the Royal Society Corpus1

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates the historical development of Isaac Newton's proposed distinction between mass and weight in the Principia Mathematica of 1687 and traces its fate in the scientific English of the Royal Society between 1700 and 1920.

What is social science if not critical?

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
Abstract This short article represents a contribution to the debate on the motion “Social science is explanation, or it is nothing.” While in the format of parliamentary debating the contribution would fall on the side of the opposition, I will not be arguing against explanation as such.

Benjamin Robins's New Principles of Gunnery and the Response From the British Mathematical, Educational, and Military World of the Mid‐Eighteenth Century

open access: yesJournal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This article analyses to what degree Benjamin Robins's discoveries in his book New Principles of Gunnery, 1742, affected the British mathematical, military, and educational world of the mid‐eighteenth century. While it drew praise and critique from Europe, especially from the notable mathematician Leonhard Euler, his mathematical theories were

Predicting Device‐Induced Platelet Damage in Assisted Circulation Using a New Biophysical Model and Experimental Validation

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Quantitative assessment of a newly proposed CFD‐based biophysical model for predicting device‐induced platelet damage by circulatory assist devices was performed. The new model preserved the relative trends observed previously with the power‐law formulation across a range of clinically relevant pump operating conditions, while demonstrating improved ...

Multiscale Modeling of a Geometrically Tunable Shunt for Growing Pediatric Patients With Single Ventricle Physiology

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Here we investigated the development of a geometrically tunable blood for patients with single ventricle physiology. Two multiscale cardiovascular models were customized and implemented at timepoints spanning across the beginning and end of the shunt‐use period.

Cannula Pairing Determines Distal Limb Perfusion During Peripheral Veno‐Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: An Experimental Mock‐Loop Study

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Introducer sheaths are commonly used as distal perfusion cannulas during VA‐ECMO; efficacy is uncertain. A simplified hydraulic bench experiment evaluated cannula and connection configurations during clinically relevant blood flow using water and simulated blood media. Distal flow fraction decreased with larger arterial cannulas and was not restored by
