Physical Basis for a Constant Lag Time [PDF]

arXiv, 2012
We show that the constant time lag prescription for tidal dissipation follows directly from the equations of motion of a tidally-forced viscous fluid body, given some basic assumptions. They are (i) dissipation results from a viscous force that is proportional to the velocity of the tidal flow (ii) tidal forcing and dissipation are weak and non ...

The Socrates Treatment

Dialogue and Universalism, 2015
The designator „Socrates“ refers to a more complicated philosophical figure than is usually acknowledged. Plato's version of the person's life and discursive strategies has had an irreversible impact on philosophy, quite independent from how the historical Socrates actually fitted into his contemporary Athenian surroundings.

Relationship Between Thermal Tides and Radius Excess [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
Close-in extrasolar gas giants -- the hot Jupiters -- display departures in radius above the zero-temperature solution, the radius excess, that are anomalously high. The radius excess of hot Jupiters follows a relatively close relation with thermal tidal tidal torques and holds for ~ 4-5 orders of magnitude in a characteristic thermal tidal power in ...

Love First

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
Abstract How should we respond to the humanity of others? Should we care for others' well‐being? Respect them as autonomous agents? Largely neglected is an answer we can find in the religious traditions of Judaism, Christianity and Buddhism: we should love all.

Respublica Noumenon: Kant, Rousseau, and Plato's Republic

The Southern Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the philosophical sources for Kant's interpretation of Plato's Republic and its impact on his conception of the ideal state. I argue that Kant's knowledge of Plato was not derived from Plato's writings, but from secondary accounts.

Process and individuation (on speculative realism and becoming)

The Southern Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent developments in the continental tradition have taken a realist turn that reveals an oscillation between, on the one hand, an ontology of virtuality that thinks of reality as process and continuum (albeit a continuum of differences or events) and, on the other hand, the resurgence of an ontology of objects and essences guided by the ...

La prison de Socrate: la dernière leçon du maître

Gerión, 2008
Socrates fully enjoyed his freedom as a citizen in Athens, a city where everybody knew him. He used to go to public and private places accompanied by his disciples, his fellow country people, and foreigners.
