The History and Ideas of George Herbert Mead's Pragmatism and Its Relevance for Operational Research and Systems Thinkers

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT George Herbert Mead is an oft forgotten or ignored American philosopher who was one of the originators of pragmatism. Today, he is recognised as a creative thinker who has teased out knotty problems that others in the field had not realised were problems. Understanding Mead's analysis has been made difficult because he died prematurely without

Exact Mathematical Solution for Maximum Transient Offtracking Calculation of a Single-Unit Vehicle Negotiating Circular Curves

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The low-speed turning maneuverability of vehicles is closely related to a well-known offtracking phenomenon which occurs when the rear wheels of a turning vehicle deviate towards the inside of a horizontal curve. Although numerous mathematical models and

Analytical solution of non-exponential decay in a simple resistor-capacitor circuit using the Lambert-Tsallis Wq function [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ensino de Física
In this work, using the Lambert-Tsallis Wq function, we present the analytical solution for the non-exponential decay in a simple electrical circuit composed by two resistors, two capacitors and a DC power supply.

Vlasov tokamak equilibria with shearad toroidal flow and anisotropic pressure

open access: yes, 2015
By choosing appropriate deformed Maxwellian ion and electron distribution functions depending on the two particle constants of motion, i.e. the energy and toroidal angular momentum, we reduce the Vlasov axisymmetric equilibrium problem for quasineutral ...

Analytic solutions of $q$-$P(A_1)$ near its critical points

open access: yes, 2016
For transcendental functions that solve non-linear $q$-difference equations, the best descriptions available are the ones obtained by expansion near critical points at the origin and infinity.

Imagination in Critical Theory: Utopia, Ideology, Aesthetics

open access: yesConstellations, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article explores the role of imagination in critical theory, addressing its conceptual ambiguity and its synthesis of three distinct but interrelated strands. The first, rooted in Freud's theory, sees imagination as wish‐fulfillment—necessarily unreal yet foundational to utopian thought.

Universal Equation for Efimov States

open access: yes, 2003
Efimov states are a sequence of shallow 3-body bound states that arise when the 2-body scattering length is large. Efimov showed that the binding energies of these states can be calculated in terms of the scattering length and a 3-body parameter by ...

M. E. Grant Duff, Philosophic Liberalism and the Global Liberal Cause

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract Historians disagree about how best to conceptualize nineteenth‐century British Liberalism in relation to its international contexts. This article argues that we can better understand the patterns involved by interrogating individuals who bridged the worlds of partisan politics and elaborated thought.

Concerning an analytical solution of some families of Kepler’s transcendental equation

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2016
The problem of finding an analytical solution of some families of Kepler transcendental equation is studied in some detail, by the Special Trans Functions Theory – STFT.
