With increasing ubiquity of artificial intelligence (AI) in modern societies, individual countries and the international community are working hard to create an innovation-friendly, yet safe, regulatory environment. Adequate regulation is key maximize benefits minimize risks stemming from AI technologies. Developing frameworks is, however, challenging due AI's global reach, agency problems pres...

Addressing the increasingly globalised determinants of many important problems affecting human health is a complex task requiring collective action. We suggest that part of the solution to addressing intractable global health issues indeed lies with the role of new legal instruments in the form of globally binding treaties, as described in the recent article of Nikogosian and Kickbusch. However...

Globalist solution proposals for global public goods, which have both non-rivalry and non-excludability properties as well cross-border externalities, emphasize collective action in the provision of these goods. However, practice COVID-19 pandemic shows that to such a problem is not so global. This situation necessitates re-evaluation concept The bad, efforts combat are an example good. consequ...

abstract: a time domain semi-analytical solution to study thermoelastic creep behavior of  functionally graded rotating axisymmetric disks with variable thickness is presented. the rate type governing differential equations for the considered structure are derived and analytically solved. to solve these  equations, the disk is divided into some virtual sub-domains. general solution of  equilibr...

Some near-regular mechanical systems involve global deviations from their corresponding regular system. Despite extensive research on vibration analysis (eigensolution) of regular and local near-regular mechanical systems, the literature on vibration analysis of global near-regular mechanical systems is scant. In this paper, a method for vibration analysis of such systems was developed using Kr...

It is well recognised today that climate change is affecting the Earth’s physical and biological systems, and is expected to do so on forthcoming decadal to century timescales. A need exists for useable predictions of the impacts associated with such climate change, and the likely societal responses to these. This must also be seen in the context of other drivers of global change, and be presen...
