Harnessing Instability Mechanisms in Airfoil Flow for Data-Driven Forecasting of Extreme Events by Barthel, Benedikt, Sapsis, Themistoklis P.

“…These extreme excursions may be seen as prototypical of the kind of unsteady and intermittent dynamics relevant to the flow around airfoils and wings in a variety of real-world applications. Here we investigate the instability mechanisms at the heart of these extreme events, and how they may be harnessed for efficient data-driven forecasting. …”

The inference-boundary model reinterpreting theme and rheme by Leong, Ping Alvin

“…The Hallidayan notions of theme and rheme pose an interesting challenge to linguists in their attempts to pin them down more specifically. This paper argues that since the thematic structure of the clause organises it as a message, a useful starting point in theme–rheme research is an understanding of how clausal messages are typically processed by language users. …”

Archaia Phusis: the original nature of the soul in Plato’s Middle Dialogues by Körner, H

“…<em>Phronēsis</em> is the true way of having virtue of character because it purifies the soul from bodily beliefs, desires, and fears (<em>Phaedo</em>, <em>Republic</em>), a process which the <em>Phaedrus</em> depicts as a regrowing of the soul’s wings.</p> <p>Tracing the theme of the soul’s <em>archaia phusis</em> in these dialogues touches on central questions in the study of Plato: do the soul’s lower parts survive in our fully purified condition? …”
