Philanthropy for the Disenfranchised
ABSTRACT Philanthropy has an uneasy relationship with democracy. It distributes decision‐making power plutocratically, in proportion to wealth. It allows unelected, unaccountable, and often untrustworthy individuals to shape social outcomes. And it does so in domains where democracy should be authoritative. Yet, at the same time, philanthropy does much

Short Abstract This paper contributes to conceptual debates on ruins by generating novel insights into how encounters with the haunted materialities of ruins in the field inform (post)colonial trajectories of exploration. Empirically, it examines how material and spectral traces of past lives in the field, alongside play with categories of absence and ...

Analysis of harmonics in subsea power transmission cables used in VSC-HVDC transmission systems operating under steady-state conditions [PDF]
Subsea power cables are a critical component of a voltage-source converter-high-voltage direct current (VSC-HVDC) transmission system in any offshore electrical power scheme.

TESCLA (tubular electromagnetic soft conformal linear actuator) combines liquid‐metal solenoids and compliant magnetic composites to achieve large‐stroke bidirectional actuation with continuous bending. Integrated inductance‐based self‐sensing enables proprioceptive position estimation without external sensors, providing a versatile platform for soft ...

Marine Sediment Imaging With Distributed Acoustic Sensing Offshore Central Chile
Abstract In subduction zones, shallow crustal faults accommodate part of the tectonic deformation and modulate the distribution of marine sediments. The interplay between active faults and sedimentary basins influences seismic hazards and submarine landslides, making imaging these structures essential to constrain their geometry, physical properties ...

Depositional History of the Otis Peak Formation, Western Fan, Jezero Crater, Mars
Abstract The Mars 2020 Perseverance rover mission spent ∼250 sols investigating the Otis Peak formation (OPfm), a sequence of rocks containing the youngest recorded interval of sediment deposition via aqueous activity on Jezero crater’s western fan. This study uses orbiter and rover observations to interpret the formation and emplacement history of the

Assessment of current carrying capacity for shore power cable via multi-physical field coupling model under various ambient conditions [PDF]
Shore power cables are directly laid in the air, in a humid port, and are directly exposed to sunlight. It will be affected by the sea breeze and tide. The special working conditions of shore power cables expedite the aging process of the insulation and ...

Essentially Indebted: Utilities, Regulation, and the Politics of Protection and Vulnerability
ABSTRACT Capital‐intensive energy utilities exist through indebtedness, yet rising household utility debt is routinely framed as distinct from this essential nature of utilities and rather as a problem of consumer irresponsibility or regulatory failure.

Mapping the Scales of Mobile and Carceral Logics of the EU–Turkey Deportation Machine
ABSTRACT This paper situates Syrians in Istanbul at the intersection of overlapping practices of mobile and carceral logics. It traces the EU–Turkey deportation machine and the intertwined mechanisms, which work to produce certain individuals as ‘deportable’ at transnational scales.
