A Splitting Architecture for Exact Reduced Coulomb Friction
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Existing approaches to frictional contact dynamics typically either modify the Coulomb law to improve numerical robustness or solve the exact law in a fully coupled monolithic form. However, in its reduced form, exact Coulomb friction can be written as a cone complementarity problem with an augmented velocity, which reveals a natural split ...

Middlebrow Aesthetics: An Explanation and Defense
Pacific Philosophical Quarterly, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We offer a philosophical account of the middlebrow as a theoretical category to do explanatory and critical work in aesthetics. On our account, the middlebrow ought to be understood as aspirational popular art. That is, it is art which aspires both to be popular (in a distinctive sense), and at the same time to be something more than popular ...

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT In many regions there are disputes about future land use that make knowledge of spatial variation in conservation value an important input to negotiation. Current approaches to measuring spatial conservation values for the purposes of recognition and protection remain largely trapped in colonising cartographic methodologies that marginalise ...

Towards a Theory of Inquiry Dialogue Questions
Educational Theory, Volume 76, Issue 5, Page 618-636, October 2026.Abstract The success of an inquiry dialogue depends on the quality of its central question. Yet, evaluating inquiry dialogue questions is harder than it appears. One approach is to maintain that inquiry dialogue questions are philosophical questions, but there is no successful method of identifying all and only philosophical questions. Another approach

The Additive Logic of Epistemic Reasons: An Axiomatic Account
Theoria, Volume 92, Issue 5, October 2026.ABSTRACT The article argues for a system of axioms that is meant to capture the logic of normative reasons for belief. The system concerns a primitive direct‐reason relation, a defined doxastic‐reason relation, and a primitive function for the revision of rational belief by reasons.
