Electrical Grid Architectures For Smart Cities From Digitalized Power Systems To Ai-Enabled Urban Energy Ecosystems, Ehab Bayoumi May 2026

Electrical Grid Architectures For Smart Cities From Digitalized Power Systems To Ai-Enabled Urban Energy Ecosystems, Ehab Bayoumi

Mechanical Engineering

Smart cities increasingly depend on electrical grid infrastructures capable of operating under high levels of digitalization, decentralization, and intelligence while maintaining reliability, security, and governance at the city scale. However, conventional power systems, historically designed for centralized generation and passive operation, are poorly aligned with the operational complexity, multi-actor coordination, and cross-sector integration characteristic of urban energy systems. This review develops an architecture-first perspective on smart-city electrical grids, tracing their evolution from digitalized power networks to decentralized and AI-enabled urban energy ecosystems. Rather than focusing on individual technologies, the study evaluates grid architectures using a multi-layer framework that integrates physical …

Heroism As Emotional Integration: A Process Model Of Emotion-Driven Heroic Action, Scott T. Allison May 2026

Heroism As Emotional Integration: A Process Model Of Emotion-Driven Heroic Action, Scott T. Allison

Heroism Science

Heroism is often framed as the expression of prosocial motivation fueled by positive emotions such as empathy, compassion, and moral elevation. This perspective, however, overlooks the complex emotional dynamics that characterize high‑risk, morally consequential action. This article advances a process model of heroism as emotional integration, involving the dynamic coordination of multiple and often competing emotions—including fear, anger, compassion, and moral concern—under conditions of uncertainty and threat. Drawing on research in heroism studies, positive psychology, and affective science, the model distinguishes heroism from ordinary helping by emphasizing emotional conflict, regulatory processes, and identity‑based commitment. It further differentiates rapid, intuitive …


The Machine For Its Own Sake: Tolkien's Critique Of Instrumental Reason And The Modern Ecological Ethos, Ahmad J. El-Youssef May 2026

The Machine For Its Own Sake: Tolkien's Critique Of Instrumental Reason And The Modern Ecological Ethos, Ahmad J. El-Youssef

Journal of Tolkien Research

This essay examines J.R.R. Tolkien's legendarium as a systematic critique of instrumental reason, positioning his work as a vital philosophical resource for diagnosing and navigating the Anthropocene. Rather than a simplistic anti-technology stance, Tolkien's concept of the "Machine" represents a teleological logic that reduces the living world to a standing reserve, paralleling contemporary ecological crises. Through analysis of key narratives, particularly the industrialisation of Isengard, the corruption of the Shire, and the restoration of Lothlórien, this study demonstrates how Tolkien dramatises the ontological flattening inherent in instrumentalist domination. The essay contrasts this with Tolkien's alternative ethos of sub-creation and stewardship, …


Wibbly-Wobbly Timey-Wimey Inklings: Tolkien And Lewis’S Relative Dimensions In Space-Time, Kristine Larsen May 2026

Wibbly-Wobbly Timey-Wimey Inklings: Tolkien And Lewis’S Relative Dimensions In Space-Time, Kristine Larsen

Journal of Tolkien Research

As noted in Tolkien's letters, around 1936 he and C.S. Lewis agreed to each try their hand at writing "an excursionary 'Thriller'" – essentially science fiction – "each discovering myth." They supposedly “tossed up,” with Lewis drawing a "Space-journey" and Tolkien a "Time-journey" (Letters 39). The standard answer is that this bet resulted in a trio of published space-travel novels for Lewis (Out of the Silent Planet [1938], Perelandra [1943], and That Hideous Strength [1945]) and two incomplete and abandoned time-travel projects for Tolkien, The Lost Road (incomplete typescript dating to 1937 [LR 8]) and The Notion …

Experimentation, Adaptability, And Ingenuity In The Community Art Studio, Louisa Mary Drab

Expressive Therapies Theses

To examine the question, “How can community art making in an open studio embolden women through creative adaptability, ingenuity, and experimentation?” a mosaic project was conducted over four sessions with women attending an art studio at a day shelter. Current literature illustrates the scope of success open studio has had in promoting community connectivity through the communion of individuality. The expressive therapies continuum, open studio approach, trauma-informed care, and the therapeutic alliance are the pillars that informed this exploration. This community engagement project melded together structural components of mosaic-making with the tenets of open studio, where guiding and sharing are …
