Believing and Willing Within the Correlation Between the Willing and the Willed in Blondel’s Action: A Reinterpretation of Immanentism and Transcendence by Francesco de Nigris

“…To the extent that the intimate willing intention is revealed in the work that factually transcends the willed ends, in view of a single necessary end, thinking shows itself in ideas as principles of action that must come to be believed in their own willing and to make every act an act of faith.…”

Numerical Solution of Boundary Problem Pertaining to Two-Dimensional Temperature Pattern with Internal Heat Sources by R. I. Esman

“…The paper contains a mathematical model and a numerical solution of non-stationary heat conduction with variable heat sources that are acting during the whole hardening process. In this case movement of the front of phase transformations along board section is taken into account.The developed mathematical model is applied for calculation of temperature patterns and temperature stresses while obtaining gypsum boards of groove and ridge design.…”

L’eau : ressource naturelle, ressource politique ? by Vincent Bos, Kyra Grieco

“…The conflict related to the project Minas Conga (2011-2016), in the department of Cajamarca in Peru, enables us to analyze the reconstruction of water resources opposed to the mining sector, by numerous agents acting on different scales. By inscribing on several registers: legal, scientific and moral, water is shown as a vital resource to be protected from human greed.…”

Compressive Loads on the Lumbar Spine During Lifting: 4D WATBAK versus Inverse Dynamics Calculations by M. H. Cole, P. N. Grimshaw

“…The model used by 4D WATBAK bases its predications on static calculations and it is assumed that these static loads reasonably depict the actual dynamic loads acting on the lumbar spine. Consequently, it was the purpose of this research to assess the agreement between the static predictions made by 4D WATBAK and those from a comparable dynamic model. …”

Investigating the rheological properties and microstructural analysis of Nano-expanded Perlite modified asphalt binder by Saeid Hesami, Mohammad Mahzari, Saeid Sobhi, Mohammad Ali Bay

“…The microstructural analyses indicated uniform dispersion of NEP elements on the modified binder surface, and the Si element from the Perlite nanoparticles exhibited the highest proportion in the modified asphalt binder, acting as fillers within the binder matrix. Overall, these characteristics of Perlite enabled it to enhance the rheological properties and performance of the asphalt binder, acting as an effective modifier when incorporated into the binder and displaying favorable performance at various temperature conditions.…”
