Nonlinear effects in steady radiating waves: An exponential asymptotics approach by Kataoka, Takeshi, Akylas, T.R.

“…For this class of forcing profiles, the wave response hinges on beyond-all-orders asymptotics only if α > −1, and nonlinear effects differ fundamentally depending on whether α > 0, α = 0 or −1 < α < 0. …”

Translations: Designing Restorative Listening Experiences in the Age of Social Fragmentation by Obeng-Marnu, Naana

“…This thesis builds on a body of sociotechnical research at the MIT Center for Constructive Communication that draws upon "ancient wisdoms" of dialogue and listening and harnesses the power of technology to inform the design of dialogue spaces that promote deep, meaningful, and authentic conversations. Our approach hinges on the belief that society functions best when we hear and understand each other, an outcome that our work strives to advance by exposing people to the personal stories of others in ways that connect rather than divide. …”
