PUERTO RICO : A NATIONAL HISTORY / by Meléndez Badillo, Jorell A., author 656083

“…This resulted in the proliferation of unsuccessful slave revolts and, in 1868, an insurrection that declared the Republic of Puerto Rico, which only lasted 48 hours. Puerto Rico's major regime change came in 1898 with the US occupation. …”

Dynamics of time-modulated, nonlinear phononic lattices by Kim, Brian L., Chong, Christopher, Hajarolasvadi, Setare, Wang, Yifan, Daraio, Chiara

“…In the present work, the response of a one-dimensional phononic lattice with time-periodic elastic properties is studied with experimental, numerical and theoretical approaches in both linear and nonlinear regimes. The system consists of repelling magnetic masses with grounding stiffness controlled by electrical coils driven with electrical signals that vary periodically in time. …”

Plan Implementation Challenges in a Shrinking City: A Conformance Evaluation of Youngstown’s (OH) Comprehensive Plan With a Subsequent Zoning Code by Ryan, Brent D., Gao, Shuqi

“…Informants attribute the weak conformance between the comprehensive plan and the Youngstown Redevelopment Code to many of the former’s ideas not being legally defensible. Changing political regimes, shifts in public opinion, and the driving need for economic investment were also cited as contributors to this weak conformance. …”

Envisioning Water: Sustainability and Future-Making in Dubai and Los Angeles by Christidi, Nadia

“…Second, I consider how these interests, forces, and effects emerge from and get mediated through entrenched structures like bureaucratic systems, accumulation regimes, and sunken investments, which produce a stickiness to infrastructures and infrastructural visions that renders change challenging, slow, and incremental. …”

Mechanics of Three-Dimensional Micro-Architected Interpenetrating Phase Composites by Chen, Andrew Y.

“…Using these prototypes, we study the mechanical behavior of the fabricated composites under uniaxial compression, with particular emphasis on the non-linear and failure regimes. We show that independent of the material system, the presence of a load-bearing matrix distributes the stress in the composite, contributing to a high-strength, globally stretchingdominated failure behavior, regardless of nodal connectivity. …”

A Branched Convolutional Neural Network for Forecasting the Occurrence of Hazes in Paris Using Meteorological Maps with Different Characteristic Spatial Scales by Wang, Chien

“…The strategy is to make the machine learn from available historical data to recognize various regional weather and hydrological regimes associated with low-visibility events. To better preserve the characteristic spatial information of input features in training, two branched architectures have recently been developed. …”

A BIT does go a long way: the positive effect of bilateral investment treaties on China's foreign direct investment inflows by Liow, Karyn Sze Min

“…Such heterogeneous treatment effects suggest that China’s BIT policy in the 1980s was a strategic one – it selectively concluded BITs with the most promising economic partners in the early period of its BIT regime. It then gradually broadened the BIT network to more partner countries as its diplomatic relations expanded over time.…”

Fragmented and fitful: India’s energy diplomacy by Chaudhuri, PP

“…This has not been an easy process and the recently elected Narendra Modi government is just the latest regime to announce ambitious plans for reform. There are numerous reasons for this having proved to be such an onerous task: natural resources are treated as government assets, energy regulation is divided between the federal and state governments, and the domination of inefficient state-owned enterprises has resulted in a sector shot through with corruption and political interests. …”
