When Thriving for More Collapses the System: The Academic Reproduction of Uncaring Structures
British Journal of Management, EarlyView.Abstract This essay argues that the widening gap between aspirational aims and visionary orientations and the prevailing practices in neoliberal academia stems from deeper, historically rooted, market‐based logics shaping our institutions, increasingly governed by economic values and academic subjectivities therein.

Potential field based navigation for planetary rovers using internal states [PDF]
, 2008 The work in this paper aims to introduce analysis and applications for the internal state model which is a new model for a swarm of rovers interacting via pair-wise attractive and repulsive potentials.

International Journal of Advanced Robotic SystemsThe traversability of the terrain ahead of planetary rovers significantly impacts the success of their extraterrestrial exploration missions. Accurate perception of the terrain force through a forward wheel-on-limb detection system can provide crucial ...

Teaching for Wonder: Pedagogical Openings for Epistemic Change in the Climate Crisis
British Journal of Management, EarlyView.Abstract The accelerating climate crisis demands profound changes in how management learning and education prepares students to engage with uncertainty and ecological interdependence. While recent scholarship calls for epistemic transformation in business schools, there is limited understanding of how pedagogy might cultivate the orientations required ...

Subsumption-based architecture for autonomous movement planning for planetary rovers [PDF]
, 1994 The paper proposes a new architecture for autonomously generating and managing movement plans of planetary rovers. The system utilizes the uniform representation of the instantaneous subgoals in the form of virtual sensor states and the autonomous ...

Visual Prediction of Rover Slip: Learning Algorithms and Field Experiments [PDF]
, 2008 Perception of the surrounding environment is an essential tool for intelligent navigation in any autonomous vehicle. In the context of Mars exploration, there is a strong motivation to enhance the perception of the rovers beyond geometry-based obstacle ...

Panoramic camera tracking on planetary rovers using feedforward control
International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2017 Future rover missions will be enhanced with the opportunistic search of salient targets during the planetary traverse phase. An essential component of the search is the locating and tracking of targets at the camera control level. The rover visual system

History, EarlyView.Abstract Examining sport alongside race, media and imperial power opens a rich field for understanding how macro‐level ideologies are shaped and circulated through everyday cultural forms. In twentieth‐century Britain, mass media framed and distributed narratives that rendered the empire's political realities intelligible to a broad public.
