Shi'ism, politics, and identity in Bahrain by Tan, Feng Qin

“…A 'naive' view of identity sees it as straightforwardly and deterministically causative, but if so the 2011 Pearl Uprising in Bahrain appears a paradox - a primarily secular episode of political contestation in a country with a Shi'a majority, against a Sunni dominated regime, in a political realm with a Shi'a Islamist-dominated opposition. …”

Mean-field approximation for networks with synchrony-driven adaptive coupling by Fennelly, N, Neff, A, Lambiotte, R, Keane, A, Byrne, A

“…We derive a mean-field approximation and assess its accuracy by comparing it to θ-neuron simulations across various stability regimes. The synchrony of the system is quantified using the Kuramoto order parameter. …”

Disciplining the state: virtue, violence, and state-making in modern China by Thornton, P

A computational study of spin glasses and its spin coupling interactions by Wong, Yi Ren

“…These models may be differentiated from one another by the critical temperature and critical exponents measured or calculated from experiments and simulations which give rise to different universality classes in different regimes. We will explore in this thesis the critical phenomena of two separate new SG models − The Spin Glass Cellular Automata (SGCA) model and the Heterogeneous Spin Glass (HSG) model while reviewing other known SG models studied in literature. …”

Crustal strain in the Marmara pull‐apart region associated with the propagation process of the North Anatolian Fault by Karakaş, Çagil, Armijo, R., Lacassin, R., Suc, J.-P., Melinte-Dobrinescu, M. C.

“…Our results provide tight constraints on the main pulse of folding associated with propagation of the tip of the NNAF: it took place in the late Miocene to earliest Pliocene (5.60 to 5.04 Ma), before deposition of undeformed Pliocene marine sediments. The folding is mostly coeval with the Messinian Salinity Crisis and accommodated several kilometers of shortening at the fault tip. …”
