Lamaholot of East Flores: a study of a boundary community by Modh, SV

“…These payments were not necessarily tied to marriage and did not serve as bridewealth. In the last century outer social factors, such as the Catholic mission and the creation of the Dutch colonial state, have resulted in that many of the traditional practices at the fieldsite have been replaced with traditions from Lamaholot elsewhere. …”

Analog Quantum Variational Embedding Classifier by Yang, Rui, Bosch, Samuel, Kiani, Bobak, Lloyd, Seth, Lupascu, Adrian

“…The increase of the number of training parameters when the size of our model increases is therefore not as fast as that of a neural network. Our algorithm presents the possibility of using current quantum annealers for solving practical machine-learning problems, and it could also be useful to explore quantum advantage in quantum machine learning.…”

Tectonics of the semi-permanent: Reassembling fit-out architecture by Schnitzler, Jenna

“…The uneven wearing that Bolton wrote about in 1911, appears again in the iconic shearing layers diagram from Frank Duffy and Stewart Brand, who make a very similar economic argument, demonstrating that the economically fast-wearing interior layer accumulates the most investment over time, rebuilt on a cycle of every 5-10 years. …”

Avoiding electrochemical indentations: a CNT-cocooned LiCoO₂ electrode with ultra-stable high-voltage cycling by Zhu, Zhi, Xu, Shuanglong, Wang, Zhenjie, Yan, Xiaohui, Xu, Guiyin, Huang, Yimeng, Wu, Yuping, Zhang, Yin, Li, Ju

“…Here, we demonstrate that the limited electrochemical contact area between electronically conductive carbon and the LCO crystal causes “electrochemical indentations” (ECIs) during charging and discharging. Particularly in fast charging, the high local ΔcLi gradient in LCO would cause a local volume of the surficial lattice to shrink while the rest of the crystal is still under stretching, and hence, drive the ECI to cause cracking. …”
