Single and two-scale sharp-interface models for concrete carbonation—asymptotics and numerical approximation
We investigate the fast-reaction asymptotics for a one-dimensional reaction-diffusion
system describing the penetration of the carbonation reaction in concrete. The technique of matchedasymptotics
is used to show that...

Measuring TPACK in 2-Year Public College Faculty
Two-year public colleges educate more than 50% of all U.S. undergraduates, yet graduation rates (29%) fall far below their 4-year counterparts (63%). It is critical for students of 2-year public institutions that their faculty...
Between Exception and Normality
Anna Lukina

Toy Models of Top Down Causation.
Adrian Kent
Oct 23, 2020
Models in which causation arises from higher level structures as well as from microdynamics may be relevant to unifying quantum theory with classical physics or general relativity. They also give a way of defining a form of...

Characterizing Tightness of LP Relaxations by Forbidding Signed Minors
Adrian Weller
Jun 09, 2016
We consider binary pairwise graphical models and provide an exact characterization (necessary and sufficient conditions observing signs of potentials) of tightness for the LP relaxation on the triplet-consistent polytope of the...

From Models-as-Fictions to Models-as-Tools
Adrian Currie
Jan 15, 2018
Many accounts of scientific modeling conceive of models as fictions: scientists interact with models in ways analogous to various aesthetic objects. Fictionalists follow most other accounts of modeling by taking them to be...
