Privileged Precarity: How the Mobile Middle Class Leverage Housing Insecurity as Labour Market Strategy

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How does the ability to weather insecurity give some an upper‐hand over others? This paper examines the interrelationship between housing and labour market precarity among middle class young professionals. Drawing on interviews with residents of co‐living schemes—for‐profit shared housing where tenants are on temporary rental contracts—it ...

Viscoelastic properties of hydroxyl-terminated poly(butadiene) based composite rocket propellants

open access: yesHemijska industrija, 2014
In the present study, the viscoelastic response of three composite solid propellants based on hydroxyl-terminated poly(butadiene), ammonium perchlorate and aluminum has been investigated. The investigation was surveyed by dynamic mechanical analysis over a wide range of temperatures and frequencies.

Europium‐ and dysprosium‐modified strontium aluminate: A luminescent marker system for enhanced gunshot residue detection

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Forensic ballistics is essential in analyzing evidence from firearm use in criminal investigations, with gunshot residue (GSR) detection providing key information about the firearm and shooting conditions. Traditional methods like spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) have limitations in sensitivity, cost, and accessibility ...

Developing Workforce Capability in the Context of HR Ecosystem Learning

open access: yesHuman Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For many organizations, developing workforce capabilities is central as it involves refining critical human resource processes such as upskilling or the acquisition of new profiles. These processes are becoming increasingly complex to manage as organizations collaborate within larger work ecosystems. Surprisingly, little research has addressed

EU Space Law and Earth's Boundaries: Integrating Environmental Impact Assessment and Corporate Due Diligence

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The European Union's proposed Space Law aims to establish a unified approach for sustainable space activities across the EU. While the EU's satellite constellations contribute to sustainability efforts, they can also have negative environmental impacts.

Rendezvous in Space: Tech Diplomacy and the Commercial Space Era—A Study of Rendezvous and Docking Technologies and Space Exploration Co‐Operation Since the Cold War

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On‐orbit rendezvous and docking constitute one of the most technically challenging activities in the history of space activities. As space endeavours mature to crewed missions, space rendezous and docking technologies (RDT) emerge as an area of technological innovation critical to advances in future crewed space exploration.

Beyond Manoeuvre Theory for European Defence

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article contributes to the debate about European defence in the light of the Russo‐Ukraine war and growing doubts about US commitment to Europe. It argues that Europeans need to fundamentally relearn the ability to imagine military strategy from a European viewpoint.

Crystals as Rockets: Modulation of the Salient Temperature in Cocrystals by Solvent Mixture Composition

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 18, 27 April 2026.
Compositionally engineered mixed solvated cocrystals enable modulation of thermosalient actuation. Guest ratio controls thermosalient temperature and propulsion intensity, providing a tunable platform for designing crystalline systems that exhibit stimuli‐responsive mechanical motion.
