Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to examine lay individuals’ gaps in understanding and misconceptions surrounding hypertension for more fundamental issues with reasoning about complexity. We coded for issues with complexity thinking in 100 posts from the online hypertension discussion forums, Ehealth.com and BPlog.com . Complementing the findings on novice and expert reasoning in the learning sciences literature, we identified four major issues with complexity thinking: Oversimplification of contributing factors, simple linear thinking, static reasoning, and discrete boundary thinking. We conclude with practical implications for these findings and suggestions for future research.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper considers how the quality of wound care delivered to people experiencing mental ill health can be improved at the system level in line with the global focus on improving population health. The purpose of this paper is to identify how the quality of wound care delivered to mental health care service users can be improved at a population level through system thinking informed by boundary theory. Design/methodology/approach This paper is a critical analysis of practice underpinned by systems thinking and boundary theory. Findings Tissue viability care and mental health care have different professional cultures and identities that are manifest in the way that they are organised and deliver care. If improvements in wound care-related outcomes at a population level are to be achieved, then it is important that the wound care needs of people experiencing mental ill health are addressed. Systems thinking and boundary theory provide a useful conceptual framework for informing quality improvement for people experiencing mental ill health at a population level. Integrated care plans are a useful mechanism for delivering comprehensive care that brings about wound healing and recovery from mental ill health. Social implications Integrated wound and mental health care plans transcend the professional boundaries that exist between tissue viability and mental health care services. Improvements in the quality and safety of care delivered to people with wounds who also utilise mental health services can be achieved through the use of integrated care plans. Health care policy and organisation need to meet the wound-related needs of people using mental health services. Originality/value There has been a focus on improving many aspects of wound care in line with the global focus on grand convergence in population health, but there has been very little emphasis on improving the wound-related outcomes of people that use mental health services. Systems thinking and boundary theory provide a useful framework for understanding how wound care for people experiencing mental ill health can be improved at a population level. Integrated care plans are a useful way of ensuring that safe high-quality wound care is consistently delivered to people experiencing mental ill health.

AbstractThe objectives of this review are to suggest the use of the systems thinking framework to improve how veterinary medicine is applied to food production. It applies the eight essential skills of systems thinking to a few selected veterinary examples. Two of the skills determine how we approach or define a problem, and are (i) dynamic thinking (taking a longer term perspective) and (ii) the 30,000 foot view (expanding the boundary of analysis beyond the animal, farm, or even country). The other skills are (iii) system-as-cause, (iv) operational thinking, (v) closed-loop (feedback) thinking, (vi) non-linear thinking, (vii) scientific thinking and (viii) generic thinking. The challenge is to adopt and apply this systems framework to veterinary medicine and food production. The result will be a rigorous new approach to solving the complex food and health problems of the 21st century.

Abstract:
Theatre is a powerful way to investigate the operation of borders due to its live, immediate focus on representation and its potential to test a society’s boundaries. This practice-led research incorporates a performance and an exegesis to ask, ‘How can site-specific theatre that investigates the performance of borders and heterotopia enhance understanding of individual responsibility in postcolonising Australia?’ I take the term postcolonising from Aileen Moreton-Robinson, who argues that the beneficiaries of settler-colonialism (such as myself) must accept responsibility for the past before attempting to address its injustices. As an artist, I am inspired by anthropologist, Deborah Bird Rose, who privileges storytelling as a way of breaking boundaries between the past and present. Michel Foucault coined the term heterotopia (other place) to denote a single real space that juxtaposes several sites that are incompatible. This evokes the contemporary Australian situation of contested sovereignty. As Joanne Tompkins argues, heterotopic theatre can enact such a space in order to raise awareness and work towards societal change. My research demonstrates this both theoretically and practically. My exegesis crosses borders to create a heterotopia by juxtaposing past, present and possible futures, stories and theoretical understandings from diverse sources. The performance created at my home, rather than in a theatre, layers family, local, Australian and international histories to highlight the continuum between the personal and political, and to question current structures of power and knowledge. I use site-specific theatre to diminish the boundaries between performer and audience, creating a visceral heterotopia that facilitates a deeper understanding of personal responsibility in the context of postcolonising Australia.

Full text
Abstract:
Peyote has marked the boundary between the Indian and the West since it was outlawed by the Spanish Inquisition in 1620. For nearly four centuries, ecclesiastical, legal, scientific, and scholarly authorities have worked to police that boundary and ensure that while indigenous subjects might consume peyote, non-indigenes could not. It is a boundary repeatedly remade, in part because generations of non-indigenes have refused to stay on their side of the line. Moving back and forth across the U.S.-Mexican border, this book explores how battles over who might enjoy the right to consume peyote have unfolded in both countries in the two centuries since Mexican independence. It focuses particularly how these conflicts have contributed to the racially exclusionary system that characterizes modern drug regimes. Through this approach, we also see a surprising history of racial thinking that binds the two countries more closely than we might think.

Abstract:
Physiology is the science that is applied at the boundary between life and death; this is why it's so important to those of us who tread that same boundary every day in the practice of anesthesiology and critical care. The functional difference between a patient who has just died and one who is still alive is physiology. What the heart, lungs, and circulation do in life is best understood through some simple, unifying principles of mechanics and chemistry. But that is not enough. There is also a way of thinking about these concepts that helps pull them together. Interestingly, that form of logic is almost identical to the way our brains work when we are solving logic puzzles. To that effect, brain teasers are included at the end of each chapter.

Abstract:
The chapter presents a multi-scalar account of the uses of ethnographic mapping to negotiate the Estonian-Latvian state border in the aftermath of the First World War. Focusing on the period between 1919-1920, it examines the interactions between Estonian and Latvian government representatives, the Estonian-Latvian Boundary Commission, and the efforts of local inhabitants to influence the outcome of the bordering process. The chapter offers a novel bottom-up perspective on bordering processes by examining the written petitions and maps drawn by border region dwellers to inform, correct, and challenge decisions about nationality, property ownership, and boundary-drawing made by the boundary commission. The inhabitants of the border region deployed considerable cartographic literacy to make specific claims about where they believed borders ought to be located and why. The development of cartographic thinking and the production of maps over the course of the nineteenth century, which had circulated in schoolbooks and newspapers, spread cartographic literacy among broad elements of the Baltic populations. The very subjects of ethnographic cartography themselves became mapmakers and consequently agents in the border drawing process. This chapter further demonstrates how ethnographic mapping permeated multiple levels of society and impacted thinking about territory and nationhood.

Full text
Abstract:
The chapter builds on Fredrik Barth’s theory of ethnic boundaries and my own elaboration of this theory into a typology of historical myths as boundary-creating mechanisms. According to this theory, the boundary between groups is the locus of identity formation and differentiation. These boundaries are rarely something ‘out there’: they are typically located in the minds of the beholders. Groups create myths about themselves and others to show that ‘we’ are different from ‘them’. One such myth is the myth of being antemurale: We are a smaller group which occupies a frontier territory of a larger civilization confronted by hostile aliens ‘outside the gates’. I trace this self-perception as a major boundary-creating mechanism in the relationships of Ukrainians, Belarusians and Georgians vis-à-vis Russia. This myth presents these groups as the frontline defenders of a larger (European) civilization against outside ‘non-European’ Russians. Historically, antemurale ideology has been based on religious differences. What makes the post-Soviet cases special is the fact that all the examined groups traditionally belong to the same religion -- Eastern Orthodoxy. Therefore, we ought to look for the dynamics behind it in other mechanisms, which I find in power relations: weak nations confronting a stronger, threatening neighbor.

Abstract:
Tangible visual thinking activities can enrich long-distance intercultural learning experiences by improving realism, respect, and equity. This occurs through the creation of boundary objects, which can be physical objects that generate shared understanding across diverse teams and disciplinary boundaries. In the case of this study, visual thinking activities produce boundary objects in the form of visual creations – such as sketches, photographs, collages, and data visualizations. Used strategically in conjunction with Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) curricula in any academic discipline, these activities cultivate self-reflection, communication, mutual understanding, cultural learning, and cooperative work. The benefits of visual thinking enrich and enhance transnational learning, as illustrated and observed in the course of the authors’ ongoing nine-year study of Virtual Exchanges (VEs) between learners situated in the Middle East and North America. The visual thinking activities in this study complement and work in parallel with COIL curricula or existing courses that instructors have already planned. They can also occur in conjunction with regular course activities leading up to and throughout a collaboration to enhance relationship-building and trust. Visual thinking activities offer ways for learners to understand and appreciate their collaborative partnerships beyond the screen. In the context of long-distance intercultural experiences, the tangible and tactile nature of these activities reinforces the verisimilitude of the collaboration and its participants. After completing these preliminary activities, the study findings indicate an increase in the quality of projects that students produce together.

Taking advantage of Conzen’s methodology, the building is tightly related with its plot, which means the certain building pattern can be described by examining the generation of the building arrangement within the plot. Simultaneously, the building pattern is highly affected by the plot pattern it is located. In view of these, plot patterns together with land property and site coding could be taken as the clue for understanding both building patterns and urban spatial configuration. 35 commercial blocks in Nanjing downtown areas are chosen as research samples. Firstly, the internal structure of the blocks will be studied by analyzing the patterns, functions and land utilities of its plots. Focusing on the site coding and regulation, the building arrangement could be clarified and mapped. The results will identify the urban spatial patterns in downtown of Nanjing by mapping the characteristics of plot size, shape, properties and boundary lines. Therefore, the method on describing urban spatial configuration in modern cities could be developed.

Full text
Abstract:
The paper provides a methodology for the estimation of heat losses in high-pressure turbine stages. Sophisticated aero-thermal analyses require detailed input data in terms of geometry and boundary conditions. Thinking of a turbine design as a continuing process, this data will not be available at an early design stage. On the other hand, in that very stage many decisions are to be taken which have a severe influence on heat losses. The presented estimation method is based on a simple network of heat resistances. For a design process of a future turbine, the heat resistances have to be calibrated using aero-thermal models or measurements of an existing reference turbine. In a first step, the calibrated resistances will be adapted to the new design using scaling laws based on global parameters such as free-stream velocity and temperature or casing thickness. In the course of turbine design, detailed input data will be available allowing for more complex aero-thermal computations. The results can be used to further improve the heat resistances in order to achieve higher accuracy of the heat loss model. The scaling laws for the heat resistances are compared to CFD computations of exemplary cases. In the following, the method is applied to a typical design scenario. Both, a reference case and a future design of a high-pressure stator 1 geometry including casing and two secondary flow cavities are set-up as conjugate heat transfer models. The elaborated model is used to estimate the heat fluxes of the future design based on the reference case. A comparison to the conjugate heat transfer results illustrates the accuracy of the method.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Design teams are often asked to produce solutions of a certain type in response to design challenges. Depending on the circumstances, they may be tasked with generating a solution that clearly follows the given specifications and constraints of a problem (i.e., a Best Fit solution), or they may be encouraged to provide a higher risk solution that challenges those constraints, but offers other potential rewards (i.e., a Dark Horse solution). In the current research, we investigate: what happens when design teams are asked to generate solutions of both types at the same time? How does this request for dual and conflicting modes of thinking impact a team’s design solutions? In addition, as concept generation proceeds, are design teams able to discern which solution fits best in each category? Rarely, in design research, do we prompt design teams for “normal” designs or ask them to think about both types of solutions (boundary preserving and boundary challenging) at the same time. This leaves us with the additional question: can design teams tell the difference between Best Fit solutions and Dark Horse solutions? In this paper, we present the results of an exploratory study with 17 design teams from five different organizations. Each team was asked to generate both a Best Fit solution and a Dark Horse solution in response to the same design prompt. We analyzed these solutions using rubrics based on familiar design metrics (feasibility, usefulness, and novelty) to investigate their characteristics. Our assumption was that teams’ Dark Horse solutions would be more novel, less feasible, but equally useful when compared with their Best Fit solutions. Our analysis revealed statistically significant results showing that teams generally produced Best Fit solutions that were more useful (met client needs) than Dark Horse solutions, and Dark Horse solutions that were more novel than Best Fit solutions. When looking at each team individually, however, we found that Dark Horse concepts were not always more novel than Best Fit concepts for every team, despite the general trend in that direction. Some teams created equally novel Best Fit and Dark Horse solutions, and a few teams generated Best Fit solutions that were more novel than their Dark Horse solutions. In terms of feasibility, Best Fit and Dark Horse solutions did not show significant differences. These findings have implications for both design educators and design practitioners as they frame design prompts and tasks for their teams of interest.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Subsea production systems (SPS) are widely used throughout the upstream oil and gas industry, and can range in complexity from simple, single well tiebacks, in shallow water, through to multi-well developments (involving subsea processing), linked back to purpose-built host facilities, in deep water and/or harsh environments. As the complexity (and cost) of the SPS being deployed has increased over the past few decades, the requirement for a more rigorous and systematic approach toward the engineering of such systems has increased. Whilst it is true that many SPS are based on "industry standard" components (when viewed at a sufficiently granular level), the reality is that every SPS is in some way unique, primarily due to the large number of boundary conditions that drive the design – be it the reservoir characteristics, produced fluid properties, water depth, seabed topography/soil conditions, environmental conditions, etc. SPS are also somewhat unusual in the upstream oil and gas industry, insofar as they typically involve the transport of multiphase flowstreams over relatively long distances, which directly impacts the complexity of the system. The inherent complexity of managing multiphase flowstreams (and/or operating subsea processing facilities) using remotely operated equipment, leads to systems where many elements of the design are "tightly coupled", as a minor change in one part of the system has the potential to significantly impact the design and operation of another part of the system, even though these "system components" may be widely separated physically. Similarly, complex systems used in other industries have been found to greatly benefit from the application of formal systems engineering (SE) processes. Whilst it is acknowledged that SE has been informally practiced in the upstream oil and gas industry for many years, the approach has typically been relatively unstructured as the various SE processes are scattered throughout existing engineering and project management processes, and therefore the SE is performed in a sub-optimal manner. Systems engineering practitioners, such as they are, have learned the trade over many years of multidisciplinary experience and have developed the holistic top-down thinking required, but to date there are no publically available documents that provide specific guidance on the systems engineering of subsea production systems. A systems engineering guidance document, specifically written to be applicable to SPS, is currently being developed by members of API Sub-Committee 17 and will soon be available. The publication of this document is intended to advance the understanding of SE theory and to foster more efficient and rigorous implementation of the various SE processes, in order to improve project outcomes. The objective of this paper is to make potential users of the guidance document aware of its existence and of the benefits associated with the use of formal systems engineering processes when designing complex facilities. The guidance document will be in the format of a Technical Report and therefore is not intended to be directive in nature, and can be tailored for use as seen fit by the Project Management Team and systems engineering personnel using it.
