Skilled for Whom? Immigration Policy, Racial Capitalism, and the Reproduction of Inequality in Britain

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the UK's 2025 Immigration White Paper as a critical site for understanding how immigration policy functions as an instrument of racial capitalism. Drawing on Critical Race Theory, the theory of social reproduction, and intersectionality, it interrogates how the state's construction of the ‘skilled migrant’ operates as a ...

3D scene reconstruction from body‐worn camera video using 3DF Zephyr

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Body‐worn cameras document crime scenes during initial law enforcement response, yet their potential for forensic reconstruction has not been empirically validated. Despite expanding global adoption, recorded video primarily serves qualitative documentation rather than quantitative measurement applications.

Biophilic Design Principles with Kinetic Facade

open access: yesInternational Research Journal on Advanced Engineering and Management (IRJAEM)
This research investigates a biophilic residential kinetic facade design to enhance environmental performance and aesthetic appeal. The need for this study arises from the growing demand for innovative design solutions that address both environmental sustainability and occupant well-being. As urbanization intensifies, residential spaces face increasing

On the Dangers of Large‐Language Model Mediated Learning for Human Capital

open access: yesHuman Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Against the dominant view in HRM concerning the value‐creating use of large language models (LLMs) in relation to Human Capital, our provocation asks whether LLMs will enhance or compromise Human Capital at work in the long‐run. We feel compelled to ask this question because Human Capital represents employees' accumulated learning experiences,
