Constitutive Explanations as a Methodological Framework for Integrating Thermodynamics and Economics
2015
Entropy
The common approach to integrating thermodynamics and economics is subsuming thermodynamic aspects among the set of constraints under which economic activity takes place. ...
"Constitutive explanations" eschew the covering law approach to scientific explanation and concentrate on the identification of multi-level architectures of causal mechanisms that generate phenomena. ...

Global Constraints within the Developmental Program of the Drosophila Wing
2021
eLife
Our results provide quantitative insights into the nature of robustness in complex forms while yet accommodating the potential for evolutionary variations. ...
Remarkably, the phenotypic variants can be described by a single integrated mode that corresponds to a non-intuitive combination of structural variations across the wing. ...
