HRR–Time Behaviour of Untreated Wood Under SBI Conditions: Implications for the Interpretation of FIGRA and THR600

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reaction‐to‐fire classification of wood‐based materials in Europe relies on SBI‐derived parameters such as FIGRA and THR600. While these parameters provide a robust and practical basis for classification, their relationship to the underlying HRR–time development remains difficult to interpret.

Materials and Music: Selective Imperfection as a Generative Framework for Analysis, Creativity and Discovery

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Vibrations in matter, from spider webs to molecules, water to flames, share a grammar with music. We propose that creativity emerges when constraints force expansion beyond existing possibilities. Selective imperfection restores balance, enabling invention.

Fiscal Policy Regimes in Resource‐Rich Economies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We analyse fiscal policy in resource‐rich economies using a novel Bayesian regime‐switching panel model. The identified regimes capture pro‐ or countercyclical fiscal behaviour by allowing regime‐specific shifts in the average fiscal stance, while the switches between the regimes have the interpretation of changes in fiscal policy.
