Social and Emotional Functions of Institutional Touch in the Relational Care of Young Children

open access: yesChild &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study reports results concerning close embodied practices, involving touch, in early childhood care settings in Sweden during the COVID‐19 pandemic. The data—video recordings of everyday practices in contexts of childcare—were collected during various phases of the pandemic. The study demonstrates a broad range of uses of touch, by adults

Non‐Rigid 3D Shape Correspondences: From Foundations to Open Challenges and Opportunities

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Estimating correspondences between deformed shape instances is a long‐standing problem in computer graphics; numerous applications, from texture transfer to statistical modelling, rely on recovering an accurate correspondence map. Many methods have thus been proposed to tackle this challenging problem from varying perspectives, depending on ...

Establishing Shape Correspondences: A Survey

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Shape correspondence between surfaces in 3D is a central problem in geometry processing, concerned with establishing meaningful relations between surfaces. While all correspondence problems share this goal, specific formulations can differ significantly: Downstream applications require certain properties that correspondences must satisfy ...

Classroom Reading as a Battle of the Sensory. Bodily Dimensions of Unshared Reading in Primary Education

open access: yesChildren &Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Primary classrooms are dynamic spaces where young students learn to read and develop as readers. While reading inherently fosters an individual interaction with a text, its manifestation in a classroom transforms reading into a collective activity.

The Company We Keep: Effects of Different Social Environments on Male Guinea Pig Behaviour and Hormones Over the Course of the Ontogeny

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
To examine how their behaviour and hormones change over different life phases, male guinea pigs experienced two different social environments from juvenility to adulthood. Only one environment contained social stimulation by unfamiliar conspecifics. Although no differences in testosterone and cortisol concentrations were found, it was interesting that ...

From Social Experience to Social Behaviour: Hormonal and Behavioural Phenotypes During Adolescence in Male Guinea Pigs

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
To investigate how different social environments during adolescence influence hormones and behaviour, adolescent male guinea pigs were pair‐housed with a female either with or without additional social stimulation through repeated brief encounters with unfamiliar conspecifics.

Experimental Study on the Fatigue Behavior of Ti‐6Al‐4 V Bolted Joints Containing Burrs

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One‐way assembly accelerates aerospace manufacturing operations but risks leaving drilling burrs within mechanical joints. The detrimental impact of burrs on fatigue strength is widely recognized in the literature, but the mechanisms driving this “knock‐down” remain unclear. This investigation focused on mechanically fastened Ti‐6Al‐4 V single‐
