An inverse problem of reconstructing the electrical and geometrical parameters characterising airframe structures and connector interfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This article is concerned with the detection of environmental ageing in adhesively bonded structures used in the aircraft industry. Using a transmission line approach a forward model for the reflection coefficients is constructed and is shown to have an ...

Truth‐telling in the Australian Curriculum

open access: yesThe Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Unlike Canada and South Africa, Australia has not completed a national Truth‐telling of First Nations histories. As a consequence, the curriculum is at risk of excluding Truth‐telling, leading to indoctrination of past injustices as part of school learning.

‘Chains of leverage’ as way to identify and foster transformative potential

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract We propose the framework of ‘chains of leverage’. It is an operationalisation to understand and analyse the transformative potential of social‐ecological systems and identify leverage points for sustainability transformations through a concrete four‐step approach.

Traditional knowledge promotes the protection of large old trees: A case from China's richest biocultural diversity area

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Large old trees are important ecological entities in human settlements, providing cultural values and ecological services that are threatened by current and future changes in global climate, land use and disturbance regimes. Some studies suggest incorporating social and cultural significance into the conservation of large old trees.

Preliminary tests of vulnerability of typical aircraft electronics to lightning-induced voltages [PDF]

open access: yes
Tests made on two pieces of typical aircraft electronics equipment to ascertain their vulnerability to simulated lightning-induced transient voltages representative of those which might occur in flight when the aircraft is struck by lightning were ...

Design of lightning protection for a full-authority digital engine control [PDF]

open access: yes
The steps and procedures are described which are necessary to achieve a successful lightning-protection design for a state-of-the-art Full-Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) system. The engine and control systems used as examples are fictional, but

Evaluation of video evidence of possible ball lightning

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We analyze images of possible ball lightning that appeared less than 10 m from a video camera. The objects' velocity and estimated brightness all agree with typical eyewitness accounts of ball lightning. Though there is an alternative explanation that the objects were sparks from a power‐line arc, we describe analytical techniques that assist in ...

Orbiter CCTV video signal noise analysis [PDF]

open access: yes
The amount of steady state and transient noise which will couple to orbiter CCTV video signal wiring is predicted. The primary emphasis is on the interim system, however, some predictions are made concerning the operational system wiring in the cabin ...

Rethinking the Spanish plume: An airstream analysis challenges the canonical conceptual model

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Three‐dimensional airstream model showing the history of air‐parcel trajectories arriving at Nottingham on 1200 UTC 1 July 2015 at 950, 850, 650 and 250 hPa, respectively. Four different airstreams are illustrated, none of which can be easily called the Spanish‐plume airstream.
