Impact of Insulation Strategies of Cross-Laminated Timber Assemblies on Energy Use, Peak Demand, and Carbon Emissions

open access: yesBuildings
Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) panels have many structural benefits but do not have much thermal resistance. We have developed a solution to insulate CLT structures that uses high-performance insulation panels that provide R-values up to R40/inch.

Making Interview Multilingualism Visible: Transnational Chinese Language Teacher Identity Construction

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines multilingual practices in research interviews, focusing on English lexical insertions in Chinese‐language research interviews with teachers of Chinese in Australian secondary schools, and treating these code‐switches as analytically meaningful rather than incidental.

Specification Tests for Jump‐Diffusion Models Based on the Characteristic Function

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary Goodness‐of‐fit tests are suggested for several popular jump‐diffusion processes. The suggested test statistics utilise the marginal characteristic function of the model and its L2‐type discrepancy from an empirical counterpart. Model parameters are estimated either by minimising the aforementioned L2‐type discrepancy or by maximum likelihood ...

Structural Dynamic Response Assessment of CLT Wall Structure Systems in Wind-Only and Sequential Seismic–Wind Scenarios

open access: yesBuildings
Because of concentrated connection damage, the impact of sequential hazards on CLT shear wall systems is much more severe than that on traditional concrete and steel structures considering ductile component behaviors.

Signalling servant leadership: How followers interpret leader behaviours

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Based on over 25 years of studies on servant leadership and multiple meta‐analyses, we can safely say servant leadership positively affects individuals, teams, and organizations. Yet to reap these benefits, followers need to recognize leaders' behaviours as servant leadership.

Structural Design and Critical Comparative Performance Analysis of Cross-Laminated Timber Slab Systems

open access: yesBuildings
Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) has gained increasing attention as sustainable and efficient material for slab systems in construction. However, the lack of standardized design guidelines and comprehensive performance comparisons between different CLT-based

Quantitative CLTs in deep neural networks

open access: yesProbability Theory and Related Fields
We study the distribution of a fully connected neural network with random Gaussian weights and biases in which the hidden layer widths are proportional to a large constant $n$. Under mild assumptions on the non-linearity, we obtain quantitative bounds on normal approximations valid at large but finite $n$ and any fixed network depth.

Dynamic Capabilities as Drivers of Circular Business Models: Exploring Direct and Indirect Relationships

open access: yesJournal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Academic Summary Despite the urgent need for a circular economy, firms' transition from linear to circular business models (CBMs) remains slow. While previous research suggests that dynamic capabilities are the key drivers of this transition, it assumes a direct link, overlooking that these capabilities can facilitate change but do not ...

EMERGING FACTORS OF COMMUNICATIVE LANGUAGE TEACHING (CLT) AND ITS APPLICATION IN INDONESIAN ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE (EFL) CLASSROOMS

open access: yesLangkawi: Journal of The Association for Arabic and English, 2017
Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) has been adopted in many countries and has influenced the foreign and second language learning and teaching.

Adaptive Estimation for Weakly Dependent Functional Times Series

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose adaptive mean and autocovariance function estimators for stationary functional time series under 𝕃p−m‐approximability assumptions. These estimators are designed to adapt to the regularity of the curves and to accommodate both sparse and dense data designs.
