What Program for Love in the 21st Century? Thinking With and Beyond Luhmann
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT From a sociological perspective, the paper examines how normative frameworks for intimate relationships have changed since the publication of Luhmann's Love as Passion (1982). Building on Luhmann's notion of a program for love, we discuss his claim that late 20th century love semantics were organized around a program of understanding. We argue

Applying triple collocation for verifying wind resource measurements and reanalysis data
Journal of Physics: Conference SeriesAbstract Dual comparisons or dual collocation, respectively, is a standard approach in wind data analysis, and particularly in the wind energy resource assessment context, for comparing and relating two time series from different sources describing the same quantity as e.g.

Systems Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Smart Transportation Systems (SmTS) will exceed complex systems with their classification as complex, sociotechnical, and AI‐based systems. Possessing a toolkit that helps systemically understand, analyze, and assess these systems will be advantageous in the early stages of the systems engineering (SE) lifecycle, and Agent Based Models (ABMs ...

Model‐Based Systems Engineering in Space Applications: A Comprehensive Literature Review
Systems Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The growing complexity of space engineering is driving the demand to embrace the adoption of Model‐Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Although the MBSE is well‐practiced in the space industry, the level of effort and need required to obtain the benefits of MBSE vastly differ across enterprises; this disparity presents a significant challenge to

Validation of significant wave height product from Envisat ASAR using triple collocation
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2014 Nowadays, spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) has become a powerful tool for providing significant wave height. Traditionally, validation of SAR derived ocean wave height has been carried out against buoy measurements or model outputs, which only yield a inter-comparison, but not an 'absolute' validation.

Games and gamification projects in the Australian public sector
Australian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.Abstract This article surveys the arrival of gameful government into Australian public sector practice. Gameful government is a shorthand, descriptive term denoting the interpenetration of (video)games, and design elements and thinking from them, into public sector work.

STREETS AS STAGES: Traffic Enforcement and the Competition for Cultural Growth in China
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In keeping with China’s desire to build soft power to parallel its economic growth, the policing of city streets has moved to the forefront as a mechanism for moral regulation and improving urban prestige. Under pressure to civilize their citizenry, many Chinese cities have become entrepreneurial cities within a type of cultural growth ...
