Brain and Environment: The Use of Brain Wave Analysis in Environmental Psychology

In neuroscience a number of new techniques have been developed by means of which it has become possible to study the activity of the living human brain. By means of these techniques we are beginning to understand the neurophysiology behind environmental attitudes and preferences. In addition to an introduction to cognitive neuroscience, this invited symposium contains a number of presentations, wh

Tools and Languages for Modeling and Optimization of Large-Scale Dynamical Systems

High-level modeling languages are receiving increased industrial and academic interest within several domains, such as chemical engineering, thermo-fluid systems and automotive systems. One such modeling language is Modelica. Modelica is an open language, specifically targeted at multi-domain modeling and model re-use. Key features of Modelica include object oriented modeling, declarative equation

Saving Youth from Idleness and Poverty: Vocational Education as a Way towards Discipline and Livelihood in Argentina (1880–1920) and China (1917–1937)

During the second half of the 19th century, both China and Argentina experienced accelerated economic, political, and social changes. To become a 'modern' nation was an integral part of both countries' efforts to deal with these transformations. Education played a key role in this nation-building process: it was expected to shape the national citizen and, thereby, the nation. However, with regard

Forerunners in bi-gyrotropic materials

Forerunners (precursors) in linear, temporally dispersive, bi-gyrotropic materials are investigated using time-domain techniques. Bi-gyrotropic materials are characterized by twelve constitutive parameters (integral kernels). Specifically, the four susceptibility dyadics are all gyrotropic with a common gyrotropic axis. Pulse propagation along this axis is analyzed using dispersive (noncoupling) w
