Architecting Discovery: A Model for How Engineers Can Help Invent Tools for Neuroscience

How Formal Ontology can help Civil Engineers

In this paper we report some considerations on the developing relationship between the area of formal ontology and that of urban development. Even in the studies on urban and territorial systems we register a phenomenon common to most applied domains: the increasing interest on ontology and the difficulties to understand its novelty. Indeed, the area of applied ontology spans a variety of metho...

O2: Neuroscience and Talent: How Neuroscience Can Enhance Successful Plan of Talent Strategy

Performance and development are based on hard work, experience and learning. Learning how to change different behaviors is crucial to successful talent management plans. Within the brain there are complex connected circuits that can identify threats. The brain reacts to change as a threat. There is also a collection of brain structures tied to a natural reward system that are involved in the re...

How Can Evolution and Neuroscience Help Us Understand Moral Capacities?

Trying to understand morality has been a central human preoccupation for as far back as human history extends, and for very good reasons. The core phenomenon is readily observable: we humans judge each other’s behaviour as right or wrong, and each other’s selves as moral or immoral. If others view you as moral, you will thrive in the bosom of a human group. If, however, others view you as immor...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
