François Lamy’s Cartesian Refutation of Spinoza’s Ethics by Jack Stetter

“…Contrasting Lamy’s objection with questions put to Spinoza by de Vries and Tschirnhaus, I maintain that by exhibiting the direction Spinoza’s views on substance and attribute took in maturing we may accurately assess the strength of Spinoza’s position vis-à-vis his Cartesian objector, and I argue that, in fact, Spinoza’s mature account of God as an expressive ens realissimum is not vulnerable to Lamy’s criticism. …”

Participations by Mariekie Burger

“…In so doing, the article suggests that universities should critically consider the following aspects when embarking on development-oriented community engagement: 1) evaluate the main assumptions of the framework, 2) consider the complex interplay between internal and external factors that cause problems of development, 3) consider the epistemology of knowledge, 4) reflect on the purpose and nature of community participation, and 5) consider aspects related to expressions of voice and identity in the public sphere instead of focusing only on measurable and material aspects as outcomes. …”

Statistics of Conditional Fluid Velocity in the Corrugated Flamelets Regime of Turbulent Premixed Combustion: A Direct Numerical Simulation Study by Nilanjan Chakraborty, Andrei N. Lipatnikov

“…The statistics of mean fluid velocity components conditional in unburned reactants and fully burned products in the context of Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) simulations have been studied using a Direct Numerical Simulation database of statistically planar turbulent premixed flame representing the corrugated flamelets regime combustion. Expressions for conditional mean velocity and conditional velocity correlations which are derived based on a presumed bimodal probability density function of reaction progress variable for unity Lewis number flames are assessed in this study with respect to the corresponding quantities extracted from DNS data. …”

The effects of race, gender, and alcohol cues on anger perception in crowds by Elizabeth Summerell, Liberty Shuttleworth, Carmen Lin, Thomas F. Denson

“…Accurately assessing anger in crowds can be difficult, and people tend to overestimate the average intensity of a crowd’s anger relative to an individual’s anger (i.e. the crowd emotion amplification effect).Method Across three experiments, we investigated the emotion amplification effect in crowds (versus individuals) displaying angry facial expressions. We also investigated the influence of gender, race, and alcohol cues as influences on this effect.Results In two of the three experiments, we replicated the emotion amplification effect and found an interaction with race. …”
