Re-composing Physical Form with Energy-Based Resilience Approach to Improve Thermal Comfort (Case Study: Sadra New Town) by Sahar Akbari, Mahsa Sholeh, Sahand Lotfi

“…The proposed criteria will encourage the process of becoming more energy resilient by planning a holistic approach to various and complex aspects of cities and looking at cities as dynamic complex systems in each urban functional area. Urban resilience refers to the ability of an urban system and all the social, environmental, and technical networks that make it up, in time and space scales, to maintain or quickly return to the intended function in the face of disruption, to adapt to rapid change and transformation of systems that limit current or future adaptive capacity. …”

Approaches used to prevent and reduce the use of restrictive practices on adults with learning disabilities: a realist review by Joy Duxbury, Alina Haines-Delmont, John Baker, Peter Baker, Gary Bourlet, Elaine Craig, James Ridley, Rachel Whyte, Beth Morrison, Michaela Thomson, Anthony Tsang, Tella Lantta

“…The main literature searches were then conducted using six databases: Applied Social Sciences Index and Abstracts (ProQuest), Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (EBSCO), MEDLINE (Ovid), PsycInfo (Ovid), EMBASE (Ovid) and Web of Science Core Collection (Emerging Sources Citation Index). The search covered evidence from 1 January 2001 up to 21 July 2021 and yielded 16,775 hits, which were then reduced to 14,383, after using EndNote X9’s (2013) inbuilt duplication detection function and manual de-duplication. …”

Signalling and the evolution of cooperative foraging in dynamic environments. by Colin J Torney, Andrew Berdahl, Iain D Couzin

“…In this work, we examine a seemingly altruistic behaviour, the active recruitment of conspecifics to a food resource through signalling. Here collective, cooperative behaviour may provide highly nonlinear benefits to individuals, since group functionality has the potential to be far greater than the sum of the component parts, for example by enabling the effective tracking of a dynamic resource. …”
