Space, Place and Desistance from Drug Use

open access: yesOñati Socio-Legal Series, 2015
As centres of human existence, places and spaces are vital for individuals’ understanding of themselves and who they might become. We explore these aspects of existence through a longitudinal study of 43 current and former drug users.

Risk and its others: Toward an anthropology of “protection” in rural Mongolia

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, Volume 127, Issue 1, Page 69-79, March 2025.
Abstract Anthropological studies of risk have long focused on how people respond to and aim to manage potential harm. But despite its long and important genealogy, this article suggests that risk can pose an analytic blind spot that potentially occludes other ways of understanding how people aim to live well in potentially harmful situations.

Viewing science teacher learning and curriculum enactment through the lens of theory of practice architectures

open access: yesScience Education, Volume 109, Issue 1, Page 305-334, January 2025.
Abstract Science teachers struggle to implement and sustain new curricular ideas from professional development (PD) experiences. These PD opportunities are crucial for enacting real‐world changes to teaching practice and address pressing global challenges, such as the teaching and learning of socioscientific topics nested in school communities ...

More Time-Space Tradeoffs for Finding a Shortest Unique Substring

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2020
We extend recent results regarding finding shortest unique substrings (SUSs) to obtain new time-space tradeoffs for this problem and the generalization of finding k-mismatch SUSs.

SECRM‐2D: RL‐Based Efficient and Comfortable Route‐Following Autonomous Driving With Analytic Safety Guarantees

open access: yesIET Intelligent Transport Systems, Volume 19, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
RL‐based efficient and comfortable route‐following autonomous driving with analytic safety guarantees. ABSTRACT Over the last decade, there has been increasing interest in autonomous driving systems. Reinforcement learning (RL) shows great promise for training autonomous driving controllers, being able to directly optimize a combination of criteria ...

Variational approach for time-space fractal Bogoyavlenskii equation

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal
In this paper, we apply the variational approach for solving the time-space fractal Bogoyavlenskii equation. By the two-scale fractal complex transformation, the fractal modification of Bogoyarlenskii equation is equivalently rewritten as the original ...

Time-Space Sampling and Respondent-Driven Sampling with Hard-to-Reach Populations

open access: yesMethodological Innovations, 2010
Time-space sampling (TSS; also referred to as time-location sampling, TLS) and respondent-driven sampling (RDS) are strategies that can be used for sampling hard-to-reach populations, for whom it is difficult to construct a sampling frame of the ...

Time-Space Fractional Heat Equation in the Unit Disk

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
We will study a maximal solution of the time-space fractional heat equation in complex domain. The fractional time is taken in the sense of the Riemann-Liouville operator, while the fractional space is assumed in the Srivastava-Owa operator.
