‘The Housewife's Greatest Standby’: Dried Eggs, Gender and Domesticity During the Second World War

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the previously underexplored connections between dried eggs, women and domesticity in Britain during the Second World War. It argues that newsprint and advertisements framed the purchase and use of dried eggs, a novel wartime product, as a means for housewives to contribute to the war effort through domestic labour. Dried

Crank mechanism of a gas V-sixteen engine

open access: yes, 2010
Diploma thesis is trying to analyze crank mechanism of a gas V-sixteen engine. Kinematics and balance crank mechanism are analyzed, dynamic model parameters are dermined, natural frequency of the torsional system are calculated, coupling parameters are ...

Reduced fertilization regimes could boost biocontrol service without reducing crop yield

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Fertilization level influences pest control effectiveness in tomato crops. High fertilization increases plant growth and aphid density but reduces the performance of the parasitoid Aphidius ervi. In contrast, the predator Adalia bipunctata maintains consistent aphid suppression regardless of fertilization regime.

Partisan bias in a sorted party system: A problem of epistemic inequality

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Normative and empirical scholars typically treat partisans’ distrust of their political rivals as a product of individual cognitive biases. But even if bias is inevitable, it is parties’ coalition‐building and messaging strategies that determine who bias is directed toward.

KINEMATIC BIFURCATION OF SLIDER-CRANK MECHANISMS

open access: yes, 2010
[[abstract]]A technique is proposed to investigate the kinematic bifurcation of slider-crank mechanisms at change points. This technique is based on: 1. modeling vector-loop equations, 2. implicit function theorems, and 3.

Scalable Computation of Topological Abstractions for Scalar Data

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Topological data analysis has become an important tool for large scale scalar data analysis and visualization, efficiently extracting the inherent structure and features of interest of the data. However, with growing dataset sizes and complexity, it is increasingly becoming infeasible to compute topological abstractions of interest in serial ...
