ABSTRACT In 1955, two female factory workers and trade union leaders, Tan Lee Eng and Kwek Tai Eng, established the Singapore Women's Federation (SWF) to unite women regardless of race, religion or class for the anti‐colonial nationalist struggle. Singapore Chinese left‐wing feminism emerged at the confluence of the nationalist interest in mobilising ...

Metrology for Quantum Hardware Standardization—Charting a Pathway: A Strategic Review
Advances in quantum mechanics have long underpinned metrology by enabling practical realizations of units through quantum effects. With the 2019 SI revision, traceability is anchored in defined fundamental constants, reinforcing the quantum‐mechanical basis of modern standards. In parallel, quantum technologies are transitioning from laboratory science

Making Mining Licit: Gold, Commodification, and the Everyday Performance of Law in Colombia
ABSTRACT Ethnographies of resource‐making have shown that the extraction of resource value from objects is premised on obviating the emplaced lifeworlds that surrounded objects before they traveled to consumer markets. Much of this literature looks at such supply‐chain disentanglement from the viewpoint of corporate and formal regulatory practices ...

Nowadays, composite steel-concrete systems are among the most cost-effective construction systems for application in multi-storey buildings as they combine structural efficiency and allow accelerated construction speed. Additional optimisation of these systems is possible through the application of cold- formed steel elements and innovative solutions ...

Based on the validated LS‐DYNA model, this study carried out a series of simulations on Phosphogypsum‐Rock Wool‐Phosphogypsum (P‐RW‐P) sandwich lightweight partition wallboards under impact load. The effects of structural and impact load parameters on their impact performance of P‐RW‐P wallboards were systematically analyzed, providing a basis for the ...
