Modeling of animal groups based on individual goals
No full textTitle: Modeling of animal groups based on individual goals Author: Ema Wayan Danielová Department: Department of Macromolecular Physics Supervisor: doc. RNDr. Viktor Holubec, Ph.D. Abstract: Collective motion represents a fascinating example of self-organization in non-equilibrium systems. This work introduces and examines a modified Vicsek model of collective motion, enhanced with alignment-induced local attractive and repulsive interactions. Numerical simulations demonstrate that such a system spontaneously forms stable clusters with a characteristic size determined by the interaction radius. The results show that group cohesion can be achieved even without periodic boundary conditions and by using using finite-range interactions that are reasonable from a biological perspective.

RNDr. Viktor Holubec, Ph.D. Abstrakt: Kolektivní pohyb představuje fascinující příklad samoorganizace v nerovnovážných systémech. V této práci je navržena a zkoumána modifikace Vicsekova modelu kolektivního pohybu doplněná o lokální přitažlivé a odpudivé interakce vyvolané optimalizací směru. Numerické simulace ukazují, že takový systém spontánně vytváří stabilní skupiny s charakteristickou velikostí určenou interakčním poloměrem. Získané výsledky demonstrují, že koheze skupiny může být dosažena i bez použití periodických okrajových podmínek a s z biologického hlediska rozmumnými konečně-dosahovými interakcemi.

Fictional persuasion, transparency, and the aim of belief
No full textIn this chapter we argue that some beliefs present a problem for the truth-aim teleological account of belief, according to which it is constitutive of belief that it is aimed at truth. We draw on empirical literature which shows that subjects form beliefs about the real world when they read fictional narratives, even when those narratives are presented as fiction, and subjects are warned that the narratives may contain falsehoods. We consider Nishi Shah’s teleologist’s dilemma and a response to it from Asbjørn Steglich-Petersen which appeals to weak truth regulation as a feature common to all belief. We argue that beliefs from fiction indicate that there is not a basic level of truth regulation common to all beliefs, and thus the teleologist’s dilemma remains.
We consider two objections to our argument. First, that the attitudes gained through reading fiction are not beliefs, and thus teleologists are not required to account for them in their theory. We respond to this concern by defending a doxastic account of the attitudes gained from fiction. Second, that these beliefs are in fact appropriately truth-aimed, insofar as readers form beliefs upon what they take to be author testimony. We respond to this concern by suggesting that the conditions under which one can form justified beliefs upon testimony are not met in the cases we discuss.
Lastly, we gesture towards a teleological account grounded in biological function, which is not vulnerable to our argument. We conclude that beliefs from fiction present a problem for the truth-aim teleological account of belief

Uncertainty analysis for industrial electrification systems: An Exploratory Modelling and Analysis (EMA) approach to mapping the effect of various uncertain factors on the performance of Power-to-X options for an integrated chemical cluster in the Port of Rotterdam
No full textAcknowledged by the United Nations as part of their sustainable development goals, reduction of greenhouse gas emissions is paramount in preserving our planet for future generations. Electrication in the industrial sector is considered one of the energy transition pathways that can contribute to meeting the emission reduction targets of the Paris Agreement. An important barrier that needs to be overcome in order to fully adopt its potential is uncertainty and its risk to the implementation of different electrication alternatives. The absence of information that illustrates the effect of uncertainty on the performance of these alternatives decreases the stability of business cases and hinders the decision-making process. To filll a part of this knowledge gap, this research performed a case-study revolving around a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model of an integrated chemical cluster in the Port of Rotterdam. The effect of the uncertain factors on the KPIs was analyzed using an exploratory modelling and analysis (EMA) approach. In addition, a key opportunity of the MILP model was utilized by changing the objective function to look at individual and collective actor optimization perspectives. This research implicates that EMA can be an effective approach to explore the effect of various uncertain factor on industrial systems undergoing electrication. Furthermore, when the goal is to perform a broad uncertainty analysis that allows for easy implementation of actor optimization perspectives while requiring only limited information about the uncertain factors in the form of sampling bandwidths, the combination of EMA and MILP can be a powerful tool

Oral literary tradition in Ema Božičević's collection A Magical World (1916)
No full textProzaistica Ema Božičević (1879–1942) objavila je zbirke priča Čarobni svijet (1916), U carstvu ispunjenih želja (1923) te ljubavni roman Alemka (1918). Zbirka priča za djecu Čarobni svijet (1916) sadrži osam priča: Lastavica, Vještica, Zmijin dvor, Vodeni kralj, Bijeda, Lijerka, Orao, Sunčanica. U prvome dijelu rada donose se relevantni podatci iz biografije i bibliografije Eme Božičević te se autoricu smješta u vremenski i društveni kontekst u kojem je stvarala. Rad Eme Božičević promatra se u kontekstu povijesti hrvatske dječje književnosti. Njome su se usputno bavili Milan Crnković, Dubravka Težak i Patricia Marušić, no njezino mjesto u povijesti hrvatske dječje književnosti nedovoljno je istraženo. Drugi dio rada donosi analizu zbirke, pri čemu se naglasak stavlja na utjecaj usmenoknjiževne tradicije u oblikovanju autorskoga teksta Eme Božičević (dominantno elementi bajke i predaje). U malobrojnoj literaturi uglavnom se spominju motivske sličnosti s prozom Ivane Brlić-Mažuranić te se posebno poglavlje u radu posvećuje odnosu dviju književnica, osobito sličnostima Priča iz davnine Ivane Brlić-Mažuranić i zbirke Čarobni svijet.The novelist Ema Božičević (1879 – 1942) published the collections of stories A Magical World (1916), In The Kingdom of Fulffilled Wishes (1923), and the romance novel Alemka (1918). The collection A Magical World (1916) contains eight stories: The Swallow, The Witch, The Serpent's Court, The Water King, Misery, The Lijerka, The Eagle, and The Sunbird. In the first part of the paper, relevant data from the biography and bibliography of Ema Božičević are presented, and the author is placed in the time and social context. The work of Ema Božičević is viewed in the context of the history of Croatian children's literature. Milan Crnković, Dubravka Težak, and Patricia Marušić dealt with it incidentally, but its place in the history of Croatian children's literature has not been sufficiently explored. The second part of the paper provides an analysis of the collection, where the emphasis is placed on the influence of the oral literary tradition in the shaping of the author's text by Ema Božičević (dominant elements of fairy tales and legends). In the scarce literature, motif similarities with the prose of Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić are mostly mentioned. A particular chapter in this paper is devoted to the relationship and similarities between the collections Tales of Long Ago and A Magical World
