‘Turkeys Cannot Vote for Christmas’: Why Epistemic Disobedience in an Anti‐Black World Matters
Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Never in the history of global coloniality has the idea of epistemic disobedience been as important as in the 21st century. This is not only because the struggle for decolonisation has shifted from physical confrontation between the coloniser and the colonised into a battle of ideas but also because the former has deployed the idea of ...

The Politics of Framing the Student Problem: Inquiries Into Australian Civics Education, 2006–2024
Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Recurring debates about civics, the kinds of history that should, and should not, be taught in school, and ‘standards debates’ about the ‘basics’ typically follow on the heels of recurring moral panics about the ‘declining’ state of ‘our’ education system.

Earthquake and Multiphase Flows. Occurrence of Fire Whirls around Multiple Fires in Cross Wind.
JAPANESE JOURNAL OF MULTIPHASE FLOW, 1995 In order to elucidate the physical processes of the formation of fire whirl, a series of laboratory experiments on three dimentional temperature profile of crib fire plume in cross wind were performed. From the experimental result, it became evident that a fire in cross wind produces a pair of vortex-like circulation in the downstream side of fire ...

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The growing impacts of climate change and energy scarcity demand environmentally sustainable refrigeration solutions. This study investigates eco‐friendly refrigerants (R152a, R290 and R600a) and their optimized ternary mixture as alternatives to R134a. Four blend compositions were analysed using experimental testing and REFPROP 10.0 modelling

Fire and co-occurrence soil microbial networks
, 2015 Fires are important disturbances whose effects upon ecosystems are complex, including changes above and below-ground that affect composition and phylogenetic structure of microbial communities (1–3). The way a community is phylogenetically structured provides clues about the main assembling mechanisms (4).

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have emerged as one of the most critical drivers of climate change; this is primarily due to high concentrations and long atmospheric life of carbon dioxide (CO2). For a significant amount of time, various biological processes such as microalgal cultivation, cyanobacterial systems, photosynthetic microorganisms ...

FireHigh-rise buildings (HRBs) are prone to high fire hazards due to their high occupant density, limited evacuation routes, and high fire load. The indicator system method, as a systematic evaluation method, is widely applied to assess HRB fire risk ...

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biomass energy plays a critical role in alleviating environmental pressures. However, its relatively high content of alkali metals (especially for potassium) would cause ash‐related issues during combustion. To mitigate these issues, the potassium migration behaviors during chestnut shell (CS) conversion and the modification mechanisms of ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The upper carbonate concretion levels of the Romualdo Formation (Aptian, Brazil) have yielded several theropod dinosaur remains, including spinosaurids and the coelurosaurs Santanaraptor placidus and Mirischia asymmetrica, the phylogenetic affinities of which are controversial.
