Emergent Innovation in Systemic Programme Design: Retrospective Reflections on the Development of a Student‐Centred Masters in Systems Thinking

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Our theory of education, based on a systemic understanding of the subjective and intersubjective construction of knowledge, is that students are motivated to study what is most meaningful to them. Meaningfulness is grounded in the students' prior experiences, which are highly diverse.

Snow depth and the duration of snow cover within forests on Rishiri Island during Water Years 2019-2025

Snow depth and the duration of snow cover within forests on Rishiri Island during Water Years 2019-2025
We conducted continuous measurements of snow conditions during Water Years (WY)2019 to 2025 to examine elevational differences in snow depth and the duration of snow cover, as well as their long-term changes, in the forests on Rishiri Island, Hokkaido, Japan. Interval digital cameras were installed at the Rishiri Town Museum (25 m elevation) and on the

A Preliminary Exploratory Measurement Model for Systems Thinking in Defence and Aerospace Engineering: A Bifurcated Framework Developed via Multiple Correspondence Analysis

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern engineering faces a ‘complexity crisis’ characterized by interlinked, multidisciplinary ‘wicked problems’, particularly within the defence and aerospace sectors. Although systems thinking is recognized as a critical competency for navigating this environment, empirical quantitative frameworks for its measurement remain limited.

Probabilistic estimation of reliable sensor spacing for wire break detection in prestressed concrete using acoustic emission technique

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The acoustic emission (AE) technique has proven to be an effective method for detecting individual wire breaks in prestressed concrete structures affected by stress corrosion cracking (SCC). However, despite its widespread application, the quantitative assessment of AE monitoring reliability and optimal sensor placement remains unresolved ...

The “We” and “Me” of Identity in Hazardous Industry Organizations: Face Work Tactics Among Practicing Engineers

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
In this paper, we use Goffman's notion of “face work” to examine how pipeline engineers perform and present their working selves as competent experts. Our analysis identifies various faces and face work tactics, including a focus on professional judgment, actively selling one's expertise relative to others, protective self‐deprecatory strategies, and ...
