The quality and quantity of social experience is fundamental to an individual's health and well-being. Early life stress is known to be an important factor in the programming of the social brain that exerts detrimental effects on social behaviors. The peri ...
This article analyses the social profile of Geneva's philanthropists around 1900. It shows that, contrary to what the literature on philanthropy argues, philanthropists belonged to varied social groups defined by diverse forms of capital (economic, social ...
An understanding of the resilience of energy systems is critical in order to tackle forthcoming challenges. This chapter proposes that the polycentric governance perspective, developed by Vincent and Elinor Ostrom, may be highly relevant in formulating pol ...
In this paper we demonstrate how agent-based modelling can be used to understand the emergence of a new infrastructure system, more specifically, a biogas infrastructure in the Netherlands. The innovative element in our modelling approach is the use of MAI ...
The increasing adoption of Social Intranets and other social technologies in organizations are transforming how people work together, share knowledge and learn. This, however, does not come without challenges since the impacts can be heterogeneous: employe ...
We analyze dissipative boundary conditions for nonlinear hyperbolic systems in one space dimension. We show that a known sufficient condition for exponential stability with respect to the H-2-norm is not sufficient for the exponential stability with respec ...

Community-based renewable energy initiatives may be important actors in the transition toward low-carbon energy systems. In turn, stimulating investments in renewable energy production at the community level requires a better understanding of investors' mo ...
Private households account for more than half of the demand addressed to the transport sector. We propose an analytical framework to describe transitions in transport behaviour across cases and to identify their respective drivers. With this, we aim to bet ...
We prove that the critical Maxwell-Klein-Gordon equation on R4+1 is globally well-posed for smooth initial data which are small in the energy norm. This reduces the problem of global regularity for large, smooth initial data to precluding concentration of ...
We present a unified framework for understanding human social behaviors in raw image sequences. Our model jointly detects multiple individuals, infers their social actions, and estimates the collective actions with a single feed-forward pass through a neur ...
