On the Simplified Numerical Analyses of an Adaptive Double‐Glazed Façade Considering Steady‐State Conditions and Experimental Data

The Journal of Engineering
The façade of a building accounts for large areas of its envelope, representing the interface between the uncontrolled outdoor climate and the conditioned interior. The façade is therefore largely responsible for the building's energy balance.

Between Care and Control: Age Assessments and the Regulation of Unaccompanied and Asylum‐Seeking Children

Child &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article offers a critical conceptual review of age assessments in England and examines their implications for unaccompanied asylum‐seeking children (UASC). Drawing on Foucault's theories of biopower and governmentality, age assessments are conceptualied as technologies of control that set the parameters for who is deemed ‘deserving’ of ...
