Moral responsibility and practical deliberation

Mange filosofer, ofte kalt "inkompatibilister" har hevdet at hvis determinisme er sann, så følger det at ingen er moralsk ansvarlige for sine handlinger fordi ingen kunne ha handlet anderledes enn det de gjorde. Mot dette argumenterer de såkalte "kompatib ilistene" at en korrekt fortolkning av hv...

Mineral phase transitions control on basin subsidence: The role of temperature, pressure, fluids and melting

The project focuses on studying and modeling the impact of metamorphic reactions within the crust and lithospheric mantle on the formation of extensional sedimentary basins. The volume changes of metamorphic reactions invariably cause changes in the bulk densities of lithospheric units. Numerical...
