Numerical model to account for the influence of infill masonry on the RC structures behaviour [PDF]

, 2005
It is a common misconception considers that masonry infill walls in structural RC buildings can only increase the overall lateral load capacity, and, therefore, must always be considered beneficial to seismic performance.

Mammals with large home ranges, low reproductive rates and small body sizes are most vulnerable to roads: A meta‐analysis

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 12, Page 3227-3239, December 2025.
Road mitigation for mammals should ideally be informed by site‐level knowledge and generally involve prioritizing species with the combination of larger home ranges, lower reproductive rates and smaller body sizes. To protect these vulnerable mammals from roads, we should maintain low road densities and instal small‐mesh mitigation fencing along roads.

A translated utopia: Embodied communication, media ideologies, and Star Trek's Universal Translator

Journal of Linguistic Anthropology, Volume 35, Issue 3, December 2025.
Abstract This paper uses Star Trek's “Universal Translator” (UT) as a point of departure for considering the imagined future of mediated linguistic interactions and of contact across difference. Although such a technology does not exist, taking its potentialities seriously as folkloric devices allows for an exploration of ideologies relating to ...

Genomic Data Are Not Commodities: Advocating for Collective Responsibility in Open Science

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT The availability of genomic and genetic data is fundamental to advancing biogeographical research, particularly in biodiversity‐rich but data‐poor regions such as the South Atlantic. Yet, despite increasing mandates for open science, researchers face significant barriers to accessing datasets from published studies.
