Safety of Sodium‐Ion Batteries: Evaluation and Perspective from Component Materials to Cells, Modules, and Packs

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This review provides a bottom‐up evaluation of sodium‐ion battery safety, linking material degradation mechanisms, cell engineering parameters, and module/pack assembly. It emphasizes that understanding intrinsic material stability and establishing coordinated engineering control across hierarchical levels are vital for preventing degradation coupling ...

A nonlinear reactivity method with application to accident-tolerant fuels [PDF]

Annals of Nuclear Energy, 2016
Abstract A nonlinear reactivity model with thermal-hydraulic feedback is presented for analysis of PWR fuel with various cladding materials. The simplified, batch-wise neutronic model requires batch reactivities and migration areas as predetermined functions of burnup, temperature (fuel and coolant), and any design parameters having neutronic ...

‘I was treated as a deficit’: Immigrant teachers' career progression in Australia

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Immigrant teachers have long been recruited through skilled and employer‐sponsored migration schemes to address teacher shortages in Australia, yet their career trajectories remain constrained by systemic inequities that limit their integration and professional development opportunities.

Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.
