Who Is a Patriotic Man? Rethinking Hegemonic Masculinity in Modern Iran

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the analytical viability of the concept of “hegemonic masculinity” in the historical study of masculinities in early‐twentieth‐century Iran (c.1890–1941). It argues that a radical problematizing of the concepts of hegemony, class, “the West,” and patriotism helps us move beyond the binaries of Western‐Iranian and modern ...

Thermodynamic Limits of Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computing Beyond the Weak-Coupling, Quasistatic Regime

Entropy
The standard Landauer bound W≥kBTln2 sets the fundamental thermodynamic cost for information erasure under ideal conditions: weak system–bath coupling, quasistatic operation, and equilibrium reservoirs.

Growth and Variation in Fallow Deer (Dama dama L.) From Two Contrasting Habitats in Southern Britain

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We have compiled a unique data set on the age, sex, body weight and dimensions of over 500 European fallow deer from two contrasting areas of habitat in southern England: a high‐density managed parkland population and a lower‐density feral woodland one.

GuideCAD: A Lightweight Multimodal Framework for 3D CAD Model Generation via Prefix Embedding

IEEE Access
Multi-modal approaches used for 3D CAD generation require substantial computational resources, necessitating efficient training. To address this, we propose GuideCAD, which leverages semantically rich visual-textual representations having only a small ...

Mass Mobilising for Climate Action: A Member‐Driven Innovation Process in a Nongovernmental Organisation

Creativity and Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental organisations (EOs) are not‐for‐profit organisations that contribute to responsible innovation (RI) efforts to mitigate the climate crisis as central catalysts in society. While the RI discourse in management research acknowledges that collaboration between a broad variety of actors is necessary to foster climate action, so far ...

Splatshop: Efficiently Editing Large Gaussian Splat Models

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Splatshop, a highly optimized toolbox for interactive editing (selection, deletion, painting, transformation, …) of 3D Gaussian Splatting models. Utilizing a comprehensive collection of heuristic approaches, we carefully balance between exact and fast rendering to enable precise editing without sacrificing real‐time performance. Our

Literary Piracy and the Art of Experimental Narratives [PDF]

Cultural Intertexts, 2018
A pirate is a ship-raider who abides by no rules. The pirate roams the tides of the ocean exploring new territories. An experimental writer is a literary pirate who explores new textual territories and toys with literary canons.

A Real‐Time Multi‐Scale Neural Representation for Complex Surface Reflectance

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent machine learning methods have significantly advanced the state of the art in the classic problem of representing surface appearance over angle, space, and scale. The models tend, however, to be relatively heavy compared to traditional fixed‐function representations, making real‐time application challenging.

Real‐Time Rendering of Dynamic Line Sets using Voxel Ray Tracing

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Real‐time rendering of dynamic line sets is relevant in many visualization tasks, including unsteady flow visualization and interactive white matter reconstruction from Magnetic Resonance Imaging. High‐quality global illumination and transparency are important for conveying the spatial structure of dense line sets, yet remain difficult to ...

A Simple Grid‐Maps Pipeline: Restructured, Accelerated and Upgraded

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Grid maps – spatially arranged small multiples – are a powerful tool to show complex geospatial data. Meulemans et al. (2020) introduced a pipeline for computing high‐quality grid maps that are shaped roughly according to their containing geographic outlines.
