Consistency of Steady-State Models Using Insight about Extensive Variables?

Fundamental consistency relationships exist between the effect of changes in extensive variables under steady-state conditions. These relationships are derived by use of physical insight about scaling of extensive variables. The relationships may be used to obtain data for or to check consistency of linear steady-state models used in process control and design. The derivation and use of these r...

The origins of insight in resting-state brain activity.

People can solve problems in more than one way. Two general strategies involve (A) methodical, conscious, search of problem-state transformations, and (B) sudden insight, with abrupt emergence of the solution into consciousness. This study elucidated the influence of initial resting brain-state on subjects' subsequent strategy choices. High-density electroencephalograms (EEGs) were recorded fro...

Revisiting State Failure: Developing a Causal Model of State Failure Based Upon Theoretical Insight

Developing a theoretically driven causal model of state failure is necessary if scholars are committed to improving the predictive power and forecasting ability of early warning models of state failure. Building upon the work of the State Failure Project and earlier statistical models of state failure, this study develops a causal model of state failure that is based upon a theoretical foundati...
