Itinerant curriculum theory: People's theory against the field's epistemicidal ethos

The Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The field of curriculum studies suffers from a glaring theoretical impasse. Much of this impasse has been rightly attributed to the triumphalism of the neoliberal wave that has massacred the educational hemisphere with policies and practices that reduce pedagogy to an instrumentalist praxis directly associated with the thirsty desires and ...

Extracting the Weinberg angle at intermediate energies

, 2005
A recent experiment by the NuTeV collaboration resulted in a surprisingly high value for the weak mixing angle $\sin^2 \theta_W$. The Paschos-Wolfenstein relation, relating neutrino cross sections to the Weinberg angle, is of pivotal importance in the ...

Nature, origin and significance of a clayey cave deposit: Relationship between karst and Oligocene/Miocene tephra (NW Dinarides)

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
A limestone cave in the NW Dinarides exhibits an anomalous presence of montmorillonite clay, not commonly found in surrounding caves, posing questions about its origin and age. Analysis reveals a composition similar to weathered tephra from the Smrekovec Volcanic Complex, suggesting transport by north‐east winds.

Contributions of arid climate and hydrothermal fluid flow on sedimentation in saline‐alkaline lakes: Insight from the Ibar intramontane basin (Southern Serbia)

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
The article demonstrates that brine was central for the supply of Ca and B to the studied saline lake. The ion transport occurred probably by thermal springs, while contributions from surface waters cannot be excluded. However, the saturation and syndepositional precipitation of Ca borates were initiated by an arid climate through evaporation, while ...

A lava attack on the recovery of sums of dense and sparse signals [PDF]

, 2015
Common high-dimensional methods for prediction rely on having either a sparse signal model, a model in which most parameters are zero and there are a small number of non-zero parameters that are large in magnitude, or a dense signal model, a model with ...

A case study on the stability of a big underground powerhouse cavern cut by an interlayer shear zone in the China Baihetan hydropower plant

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A 9‐year study on the deformation and stability problem of the large deep underground cavern in Baihetan power station was carried out. Abstract The big underground powerhouse cavern of the China Baihetan hydropower plant is 438 m long, 34 m wide, and 88.7 m high.

Optimal mud pressure design using nonlinear failure criteria for wellbores in shaley sedimentary reservoir

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The present study uses the Modified Mohr‐Coulomb true‐triaxial failure criterion (MMC_TT), which predicts the strength of rock better than the MGC criterion in laboratory true‐triaxial tests to overcome the limitations. Moreover, based on the data from previously published five vertical wells in the Krishna‐Godavari basin (K‐G basin), an empirical ...

Models of Hawaiian volcano growth and plume structure: Implications of results from the Hawaii Scientific Drilling Project [PDF]

, 1996
The shapes of typical Hawaiian volcanoes are simply parameterized, and a relationship is derived for the dependence of lava accumulation rates on volcano volume and volumetric growth rate.

Assessing Groundwater Potential in the Ziway Lake Watershed Using Geographical Information System, Analytic Hierarchy Process, and Drinking Water Quality Index

Global Challenges, EarlyView.
This study identifies groundwater potential zones in Ethiopia’s Ziway Lake watershed using GIS and the SWAT model. Over half the area shows moderate to very high potential. Nearly 40% of high‐potential zones also have good to excellent water quality. The results offer a practical tool for sustainable groundwater management, with potential application ...

CO2 Storage Site Selection: A Comprehensive Review of Current Approaches

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global warming, driven by increasing anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, has emerged as a critical environmental concern. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology offers a promising solution for reducing CO2 emissions, but its effectiveness depends on identifying suitable candidates that can ensure safe, long‐term storage of CO2.
