Modular and scalable system for 3D behavioural assays of olfactory and gustatory preferences in flying insects

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant–pollinator interactions are fundamental to the functioning of natural ecosystems and the enhancement of agricultural productivity. An effective support of pollinator communities necessitates a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms underlying pollinator attraction and nutritional preferences.

Prediction of the peak seismic response of asymmetric buildings under bidirectional horizontal ground motion using equivalent SDOF model

open access: yesJapan Architectural Review, 2018
The applicability of a simplified procedure, namely mode‐adaptive bidirectional pushover analysis (MABPA), to the prediction of the non‐linear peak response of a multistory asymmetric building subjected to bidirectional excitation is discussed. The first

Crayons × Code: Re‐Exploring Children's Drawings With Multimodal AI and Dynamic Ethics

open access: yesArea, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Children's drawings are used to study their environmental perception, but AI‐powered analysis of these visual materials remains underexplored. This paper re‐explores the use of children's drawings as a tool for understanding their perceptions of the environment, leveraging multimodal AI for analysis.

A Modal Pushover Analysis on Multi-Span Concrete Bridges to Estimate Inelastic Seismic Responses

open access: yesCivil Engineering Dimension, 2007
The performance of Modal Pushover Analysis (MPA) in predicting the inelastic seismic response of multi-span concrete bridges is investigated. The bridge is subjected to lateral forces distributed proportionally over the span of the bridge in accordance ...

Disentangling the Relationship Between Mindfulness and Creativity: The Role of Conceptual and Experimental Creative Methods

open access: yesCreativity and Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prior research has indicated that mindfulness has the potential to enhance individuals' functioning in many ways. However, explorations of its relationship with creativity have elicited contrasting results that remain unresolved, and the underlying processes of this relationship remain unclear.

The Evaluation of the Seismic Performance of Unsymmetric-Plan Tall Buildings Using Modal Spectral Time History and Multi-Mode Pushover Analysis

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings
In recent seismic events that occurred worldwide and in Peru, it has been observed that irregular structures in plan present greater structural damage compared to regular structures. Investigations carried out after seismic events indicate that irregular

Assessment of improved modal pushover analysis for eccentrically braced frames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper concentrates on evaluation of current Pushover Procedures to assess the seismic demands of Eccentrically Braced Frame (EBF). Three 5, 10 and 15 storey EBF frames, designed by Iranian codes, analyzed for five ground motions by MPA, IMPA, and as a proposed method MPA based on Energy-Based capacity curve (briefly E-B.MPA), also story drift of ...

Embodied practice in a disembodied time: How the COVID‐19 pandemic shaped direct work with children and young people

open access: yesChild &Family Social Work, EarlyView.
Abstract The COVID‐19 pandemic and related restrictions imposed in the UK had a significant impact on social work practice with children and young people. As has been widely reported, practitioners were deprived of multisensory information in their assessments and of opportunities to connect with children.

Ultrasonographic diagnosis of caudoproximal humeral stress fracture in thoroughbred racehorses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Humeral stress fractures in racehorses can progress to catastrophic fracture if unrecognised. Scintigraphy is the gold standard diagnostic technique but is limited by accessibility and cost. It was hypothesised that ultrasonography could be used to visualise caudoproximal humeral stress fractures. Objectives To determine the utility
