Planetary Scale Information Transmission in the Biosphere and Technosphere: Limits and Evolution [PDF]

open access: yesLife, 2023
Information transmission via communication between agents is ubiquitous on Earth, and is a vital facet of living systems. In this paper, we aim to quantify this rate of information transmission associated with Earth’s biosphere and technosphere (i.e., a ...

Does the Sustainability of the Anthropocene Technosphere Imply an Existential Risk for Our Species? Thinking with Peter Haff

open access: yesSocial Sciences, 2021
Throughout the 20th century, several thinkers noticed that Technology was becoming a global phenomenon. More recently, US geologist Peter Haff claimed that a Technosphere is now in place and can be conceived as a new Earth geological system.

The Technosphere and Nihilism. Autopoiesis as the End of Metaphysics [PDF]

open access: yesPhainomena
The “essence” of the technosphere is no longer human or inhuman, because it is not a thinking machine or an instrument for other purposes. After all, the “essence” of artificial intelligence is that it is a thing, rather than an object that thinks and ...

Design of Water Fire Extinguishing System for Protection of Metro Rolling Stock Stagnation Zones [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
Metro rolling stock stagnation zones are quite long. This causes a number of difficulties in choosing and designing a water fire extinguishing system, as it directly affects the pressure loss in pipelines when water is supplied over such a long distance.
