Affordable and Clean Energy: CO2 Emissions, Resilience and Inequality

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable development means building the resilience of both people and the planet. It includes implementing strategies which reduce emissions while also enabling more vulnerable households to transition to clean and affordable energy. This paper examines household CO2 emissions in Ireland to highlight those who emit most and least in key ...

Influence of humidity on the radiant, convective and contact heat transmission through protective clothing materials

open access: yes, 1996
The effect of moisture on the heat transmission through fourteen protective clothing assemblies has been analysed. The samples have been prepared in three different ways to simulate the accumulation of humidity either in the outer shell or in the inner ...

Driving Drugs Deeper: Force‐Driven Microneedle Systems for Active Therapy and Their Road Towards Clinical Implementation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Force‐driven microneedles are presented as active therapeutic microdevices that overcome the diffusion limits of conventional patches. By integrating gas generation, magnetic actuation, cavitation, or iontophoresis, these systems drive payloads deeper into tissue, enabling faster, more controlled delivery and highlighting key design principles and ...

Bioelectronic Wearable Sensors Produced by Computerized Embroidery Using a Dual Thread Approach

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A dual‐thread embroidered SmartBra integrates silver‐plated and conductive‐polymer (PECOTEX) threads to enable simultaneous cardiac monitoring and open‐circuit potentiometric sensing of potassium and sodium in a breast milk substitute. The wearable platform is fabricated using computerized embroidery, offering a scalable, proof‐of‐concept route toward ...

A Survey Experiment on How Legal Status of Nicotine Products Influences Young Adults' Perceptions and Choices

open access: yesSouthern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how sales bans influence young adults' perceptions and their interest in using combustible and non‐combustible nicotine products in Türkiye. Using a scenario‐based, between‐subjects experimental design, participants aged 18–30 were randomly assigned to one of four conditions: cigarettes or e‐cigarettes, framed as either

Cuttings, Combings, Fettlings and Flock: Gender and Australian Wool ‘Waste’, 1900–1950

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As Australia's wool industry produced vast amounts of fine fleece from the nineteenth century, the wool processing and clothes manufacturing industries generated waste – products like cuttings, combings, fettlings and flock. Salvaged and then sold to waste merchants, these and other materials had a second life.

Methods for protective clothing evaluation [Elektronisk resurs]

open access: yes, 2000
The international Technical report , ISO/TR 11079, will soon be due for revision. The report suggests that thermal insulation values from a moving thermal manikin can be used to match requirements specified by the IREQ-method. It is known from prior work

Does the Rule of Law Require the Separation of Powers?

open access: yesThe Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
The separation of powers is an enigmatic political ideal, particularly in the context of the modern administrative state, in which administrative officials routinely perform a combination of legislative, judicial, and executive functions. In this article we reexamine this ideal by interrogating Adrian Vermeule's provocative claim that the separation of

The influence of the number of thermal layers on the clothing insulation of a cold-protective ensemble [Elektronisk resurs]

open access: yes, 2000
The required thermal insulation in cold conditions and time limits for cold exposure can be predicted by the thermal index IREQ/DLE (Insulation REQuired), described in ISO/TR-11079.
