The earth's electromagnetic environment
It is found that the energy density of electromagnetic fields at the surface of the Earth follow a scaling law that extends over 16 orders of magnitude from 10-9 Hz to 107 Hz. The temporal variability of the field can be...

E-commerce shipping through a third-party supply chain
We consider an e-commerce retailer who must ship orders from a warehouse to a set of customers with delivery deadlines. As is often the case, the retailer uses a third-party service provider to ensure its distribution. The...
Dynamic exergy analysis
As the power and transport sectors decarbonize, industrial emissions will become the main focus of decarbonization efforts. Exergy analysis provides a combined material and energy efficiency approach to assess industrial plants...
Substrate texture affects female cricket walking response to male calling song.
©2018 The Authors. Field crickets are extensively used as a model organism to study female phonotactic walking behaviour, i.e. their attraction to the male calling song. Laboratory-based phonotaxis experiments generally rely on...

Aug 22, 2017
Partisan gerrymandering is frequently condemned for distorting democracy and causing unfair representation, and many reformers have called upon federal courts to prohibit the practice. However, the judiciary has struggled to...
Production, consumers' convenience, and cynical economies
JM del Nido
May 06, 2021
Based on twelve months of fieldwork into Uber's conflict in Buenos Aires, Argentina, this article examines convenience's role in the emergence of what I call cynical economies: a method and logic of production expressly...
Fibre-reinforced polymers in reinforced and prestressed concrete applications
JM Lees
Sep 10, 2013
Recent developments in the use of fibre-reinforced polymers (FRPs) in reinforced and prestressed concrete applications are reviewed. The influence of FRP material properties on the design of concrete structures is considered and...
Do Not Adjust Your Mind
Glia have been implicated in schizophrenia, although whether they play a primary role is uncertain. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Windrem et al. (2017) transplant human glial progenitors from schizophrenia patients into mouse...
Listeners and Readers Generalize Their Experience With Word Meanings Across Modalities
Research has shown that adults' lexical-semantic representations are surprisingly malleable. For instance, the interpretation of ambiguous words (e.g., bark) is influenced by experience such that recently encountered meanings...
