Design of a 3.4‐MW wind turbine with integrated plasma actuator‐based load control
Wind Energy, 2022 Historically, cost reduction in wind energy has been accomplished by increasing hub heights and rotor diameters to capture more energy per turbine. The growth in rotor and turbine costs with increasing turbine sizes is also driven by the additional ...

Decision‐making for wāhine Māori facing breast cancer surgery: a qualitative study
Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 20, Issue 4, Page 837-849, December 2025.ABSTRACT Wāhine Māori (women/females) are disproportionally affected by breast cancer in Aotearoa New Zealand. Following a breast cancer diagnosis, wāhine must make important surgical decisions while navigating a Westernised health system that can be dismissive of Māori views of health and tikanga (customary practices).
