Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Improved empirical force field for multicomponent oxide glasses and crystals
In this paper, the self-consistent PMMCS force fields (FFs) [Pedone et al., J. Phys. Chem. B 110, 11780 (2006)10.1021/jp0611018] widely used for the simulation of a large variety of silicates, aluminosilicate and phosphate crystals, and multicomponent oxide glasses have been revised and improved by the inclusion of two types of three-body interactions acting between T-O-T bridges (T=Si and P) and network former-network former repulsive interactions. The FFs named Bertani-Menziani-Pedone (BMP)-harm and BMP-shrm better reproduce the T-O-T bond angle distributions (BADs) and network former-oxygen distances. Consequently, the prediction of Qn distributions (Q stands for quaternary species, and n is the number of bridging oxygens around it), neutron total distribution functions, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of spin active nuclei (Si29, O17, P31, Al27), and the density have also been hugely improved with respect to the previous version of our FF. These results also highlight the strong correlation between the T-O-T BADs and the other short and intermediate structural properties in oxide glasses, which have been largely neglected in the past. In addition to the improvement of the structure, the FF has been revealed to reproduce well the ionic conductivity in mixed alkali aluminosilicate glasses and the elastic properties. The systematic comparison with other interatomic potential models, including the polarizable core-shell model, carried out in this paper showed that our potential model is more balanced and effective for simulating a vast family of crystalline and amorphous oxide-based systems
Applications of machine-learning interatomic potentials for modeling ceramics, glass, and electrolytes: A review
The emergence of artificial intelligence has provided efficient methodologies to pursue innovative findings in material science. Over the past two decades, machine-learning potential (MLP) has emerged as an alternative technology to density functional theory (DFT) and classical molecular dynamics (CMD) simulations for computational modeling of materials and estimation of their properties. The MLP offers more efficient computation compared to DFT, while providing higher accuracy compared to CMD. This enables us to conduct more realistic simulations using models with more atoms and for longer simulation times. Indeed, the number of research studies utilizing MLPs has significantly increased since 2015, covering a broad range of materials and their structures, ranging from simple to complex, as well as various chemical and physical phenomena. As a result, there are high expectations for further applications of MLPs in the field of material science and industrial development. This review aims to summarize the applications, particularly in ceramics and glass science, and fundamental theories of MLPs to facilitate future progress and utilization. Finally, we provide a summary and discuss perspectives on the next challenges in the development and application of MLPs
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
