Powerful transformations: The experiences of higher education teaching staff who were first‐generation university students

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Historically, a university education has been seen primarily as a route for the middle classes to achieve professional qualifications while structural barriers have served to restrict entry to individuals from particular demographics. First‐generation students (FGS), often with low socio‐economic backgrounds, face multiple barriers to Higher ...

Shape‐directed formation of T8/T6 Zn–siloxane clusters and their deep‐UV shielding properties

open access: yesBulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
The shape and conformational characteristics of silane substituents direct the assembly of Zn–siloxane clusters into conventional T8 or rare T6 siloxane frameworks. Non‐planar cyclic substituents selectively promote T6 formation through steric effects, while the resulting clusters exhibit deep‐ultraviolet absorption and can be processed into ...

Voltage Support Capacity Improvement for Wind Farms with Reactive Power Substitution Control

open access: yesCSEE Journal of Power and Energy Systems
Generally, voltage support at the point of common coupling (PCC) of a wind farm is achieved through centralized static var generators (SVGs). Since the reactive power requirements occupy their capacity in a steady state, the reactive power support ...

Review of low voltage ride‐through technology of doubly‐fed induction generator

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2018
In recent years, with the increasing of wind power development, the demand for low voltage ride‐through (LVRT) technology was proposed to ensure the safe and reliable operation of the power system. The key issue of LVRT strategy for doubly‐fed induction generator (DFIG) varies according to the network synchronisation modes.

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Flight of the dragons: a global review of migration in Odonata

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insects are the most abundant and ecologically important animal migrants. Yet, we know relatively little about the patterns and processes underlying insect migration. Dragonflies (Anisoptera) and damselflies (Zygoptera) comprise the ancient insect order Odonata, whose ancestors were the first organisms to fly on Earth.

Barriers and Enablers of Circular Economy in Electrical and Electronic Equipment: A Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rapid technological change, shorter lifecycles and rising demand for electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) are increasing waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) and emphasise the need for a circular economy. This paper identifies barriers and enablers of the circular transition in EEE and outlines interventions.
