At the frontiers between penal and psy discourses: judicial constructions of the mentally dis/ordered defendant in Hong Kong sentencing judgments by Chiu, TCU

“…While existing literature on the compulsory mental health regime in Hong Kong has found judges to defer, with little critical scrutiny, to medical professional opinion in finding mental incapacity and disorder, this thesis is the first to explore whether this judicial reliance on the clinical gaze extends to decision-making about sentencing in criminal law.…”

Human nature, after all: affective realism in Russian foreign policy by Edinger, H

“…References to security threats, for example, could be indicative of more deeply felt ontological anxieties or officials’ visceral fear over regime stability and their personal safety. Understanding affective dynamics, and the action tendencies they promote, can improve explanations of foreign policy in the Russian case and potentially others.…”

Unified quantum theory of electrochemical kinetics by coupled ion–electron transfer by Bazant, Martin Z.

“…In the limit of large ion transfer energies, the theory predicts Butler–Volmer kinetics of “ion-coupled electron transfer” (ICET), where the charge transfer coefficient and exchange current are connected to microscopic properties of the electrode/electrolyte interface. In the ICET regime, the reductive and oxidative branches of Tafel’s law are predicted to hold over a wide range of overpotentials, bounded by the ion-transfer energies for oxidation and reduction, respectively. …”

Effects of high loading rate on reinforced concrete beams by Fujikake, Kazunori, Adhikary, Satadru Das, Li, Bing

“…To supplement the limited literature in this field, 24 RC beams were tested under four different loading rates ranging from slow (4 × 10–4 m/s) to fast (2 m/s) to cover the wide range of loading scenarios (quasi-static, earthquakes, and impact regime). Comparative analyses of RC beams under these varying loading rates highlighted several key aspects of their dynamic behavior.…”
