Epistemological Implications of a System—Theoretical Understanding for Sustainability Models

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the sense of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), global efforts to create a sustainable society will not be sufficiently successful under the current geopolitical and socio‐economic trends. For this reason, recent sustainability research has increasingly focused on systemic coherence, the subject of cognition, and psychological and ...

Who Is the System? On the Externalisation and Depersonalisation of Responsibility for Abuse

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the externalisation and depersonalisation of responsibility in the institutional communication of the Roman Catholic Church in the context of sexualised violence. Niklas Luhmann's theory of social systems is used to show how semantic constructions such as ‘systemic causes’ rhetorically blur responsibility and contribute ...

Alteration of Phase Transformation Behavior and Prior Austenite Grain Structure Due to Elevated Tramp Element Concentrations in a Hypoeutectoid Steel

steel research international, EarlyView.
The phase transformation behavior of a hypoeutectoid steel is studied in comparison with alloys containing higher concentrations of tramp elements, simulating high recycling rates. The examination of microstructures reveals that the tramp elements facilitate the formation of displacive phases along with retained austenite.

Increasing the Reuse Potential of High‐Strength Steels by Extending the Fatigue Life through Surface Treatments

steel research international, EarlyView.
Surface reconditioning through mechanical and electrochemical polishing is shown to extend the fatigue life of predamaged 42CrMo4 steel by over 12 times. By removing ≈100 μm of surface material, surface‐driven fatigue damage is mitigated. This study introduces a reuse potential metric to evaluate fatigue recovery and support sustainable steel reuse.

CORR‐DATA: A database of corrosion parameters measured on existing reinforced concrete structures for enhanced structural assessment

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The corrosion of reinforcing bars embedded in concrete strongly compromises structural performance over time. However, its detection and quantification remain challenging due to limited comprehensive knowledge of natural corrosion patterns in existing structures.

Accounting for Friendlessness: Stigma and the Quest for an Honorable Self

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
How do people who identify as friendless make sense of their condition in a moment when friendship is extolled for the support and satisfaction it offers? This article draws on interviews with 21 adults in an Atlantic Canadian city. We argue that our interviewees were rarely at ease with their friendlessness and were at pains to recover an honorable ...
