Miten kokemuksesta voi oppia? : Kokemus ja reflektiivinen ajattelu John Deweyn toiminnan filosofiassa

Artikkelissa käsitellään sitä, miten David Kolb perustelee teoksessaan Experiential Learning kokemusoppimisen malliaan, mitä hän esittää John Deweyn siitä sanoneen, sekä verrataan tätä esitystä Dewey-tutkijoiden tulkintaan kokemuksen ja reflektiivisen ajattelun luonteesta Deweyn filosofiassa

Comment on "Selection of the Saffman-Taylor finger width in the absence of surface tension: an exact result"

A Comment on the Letter by Mark Mineev-Weinstein, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 2113 (1998). The authors of the Letter offer a Reply.

Nonlinear Saffman-Taylor instability

We show, both theoretically and experimentally, that the interface between two viscous fluids in a Hele-Shaw cell can be nonlinearly unstable before the Saffman-Taylor linear instability point is reached. We identify the family of exact elastica solutions [Nye et al., Eur. J. Phys. 5, 73 (1984)] as the unstable branch of the corresponding subcritical bifurcation which ends up at a topological singularity defined by interface pinchoff. We devise an experimental procedure to prepare arbitrary initial conditions in a Hele-Shaw cell. This is used to test the proposed bifurcation scenario and quantitatively asses its practical relevance.

Reply to Comment on 'Two-finger selection theory in the Saffman-Taylor problem

We clarify the meaning of the results of Phys. Rev. E 60, R5013 (1999). We discuss the use and implications of periodic boundary conditions, as opposed to rigid-wall ones. We briefly argue that the solutions of the paper above are physically relevant as part of a more general issue, namely the possible generalization to dynamics, of the microscopic solvability scenario of selection.
