Sensitivity study on accuracy and relevant parameters in numerical modeling of internal tendon breaks

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the numerical modeling of internal tendon breaks in prestressed concrete structures and evaluates the key parameters affecting accuracy. A combined approach is followed, involving global sensitivity analysis via the Elementary Effects Method and subsequent model calibration using experimental data from distributed fiber‐

Behavior of exterior beam‐column joint reinforced with shape memory alloy

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Beam‐column joints are critical regions in moment‐resisting frames and are particularly susceptible to severe stress concentrations and reinforcement congestion. Conventional design typically relies on dense transverse reinforcement to improve joint performance, resulting in construction difficulties and reinforcement congestion.

Closed‐form solutions for dynamic punching shear assessment in flat slabs subjected to sudden column removal

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Simplified closed‐form equations are commonly used in structural design to prevent punching shear failures of concrete flat slabs supported on columns in permanent and transient situations, whereas more advanced methods are generally used in verifications at accidental design situations due to the lack of suitable equivalent approaches ...

Not Even Newton's Word: Authority and Resistance in the Royal Society Corpus1

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates the historical development of Isaac Newton's proposed distinction between mass and weight in the Principia Mathematica of 1687 and traces its fate in the scientific English of the Royal Society between 1700 and 1920.

Intellectual Property Restitution

open access: yesThe Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
In Europe, open GLAM movements and cultural restitution reforms are overlooking a crucial aspect that should not be underestimated: what should happen to the archival materials, digital collections and intellectual property that are indelibly linked to cultural property.

‘Mere Amateurs’? Elementary Teachers and the Making of Scientific Authority in the British Child Study Movement

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract This article offers new perspectives on the relationship between elementary teaching, scientific expertise and the professionalization of the human sciences. Previous scholarship has demonstrated the ready existence of ‘amateur’ science societies in the nineteenth century where cross‐class exchanges were common.

‘The Tragedy of a Small Nation’: Alexander Devine and British Perspectives on the Montenegrin Question, 1918–24

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the pro‐Montenegrin political campaigns of Alexander Devine, a schoolmaster and journalist who became Montenegro's leading British advocate following its incorporation into the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes after the First World War.

Cenozoic Tectonics Ignite Mitochondrial Codon Innovations Propelling Canid Body Size Evolution and Transcontinental Radiations

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We decode mitochondrial genomes across all extant canids, revealing lineage‐specific codon optimization driven by altitude, predation, and body size. A tripartite framework integrates geological events, metabolic constraints, and adaptive radiation to explain carnivore evolution.

Commercial treaties and political transformation in Sulu and Southeast Asian littorals, c. 1830–1840

open access: yesAsia‐Pacific Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This article re‐examines an economic treaty concluded between Spain and the Sulu Sultanate in 1836. Analysing the Tausug (Jawi) and Spanish treaty versions alongside archival sources from Spain, the Philippines, and England, it traces the impact of indigenous agency beyond the formal signatories on economic and political transformations ...

How Reelection Pressure Shapes Directors' Commitment to Stakeholders: Evidence From Majority Voting Legislation

open access: yesCorporate Governance: An International Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research Question/Issue Director reelection pressure strengthens directors' accountability to shareholders, yet its implications for stakeholder‐oriented engagement, such as corporate sustainability, remain theoretically ambiguous and empirically underexplored.
