‘Expression is power’: Gender, residual culture and political aspiration at the Cumnock School of Oratory, 1870–1900

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
Abstract This article investigates the ways in which late‐nineteenth‐century students at Northwestern University's Cumnock School of Oratory mobilised elocution training and parlour performance to foster mixed‐gender public discourse. I use student publications to reconstruct parlour meetings in which women and men adapted traditions of conversational ...

Comprehensive Review of Lithium-Ion Battery State of Charge Estimation by Sliding Mode Observers

open access: yesEnergies
The state of charge (SoC) is a critical parameter in lithium-ion batteries and their alternatives. It determines the battery’s remaining energy capacity and influences its performance longevity.

Sociology and The Complexity of What Is Missing

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT What is ‘missed’ by sociological literature underpinned by assumptions of presence that a missing approach can rectify? I appropriate a metaphysics of presence and an alternative focus on what is missing as ontological foci to revisit complexity studies in sociology.

Memory in random bouncing ball dynamics

open access: yes, 2016
The bouncing of an inelastic ball on a vibrating plate is a popular model used in various fields, from granular gases to nanometer-sized mechanical contacts. For random plate motion, so far, the model has been studied using Poincar{\'e} maps in which the
