Modelling the impact of alternative fare structures on train overcrowding
The Strategic Rail Authority (SRA) provides the backbone to rail regulation in Great Britain. As part of its responsibilities, the SRA monitors overcrowding on trains which it measures in terms of the proportion of passengers on trains in excess of the ...

Carstairs Scores for Scottish Postcode Sectors, Datazones and Output Areas from the 2011 Census [PDF]
Carstairs deprivation scores, originally created in 1981, provide a measure of material deprivation. Four census variables (male unemployment, no car ownership, overcrowding and low social class) were used in the creation of the score.

Understanding the paradox of primary teacher shortage in low‐income countries: Insights from Malawi
Abstract Malawi faces a persistent and chronic teacher shortage, particularly at the primary school level, with much of the challenge attributed to teacher supply constraints. While the causes of teacher shortages are known to be complex and context‐dependent, there remains a lack of in‐depth, country‐specific research to guide effective policies ...

Abstract Despite a growing international consensus that students need to be provided with the type of education that effectively prepares them to engage in and contribute to their globalised world, and that teachers need to be appropriately trained to facilitate this teaching and learning, ‘global education’ continues to be hindered by a lack of ...

ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Cordon pricing consistent with the physics of overcrowding [PDF]
This paper describes the modeling of recurring congestion in a network. It is shown that the standard economic models of marginal cost cannot describe precisely traffic congestion in networks during time-dependent conditions.

A combination of visible light and thermal energy accelerates the CO formation rate up to 57 times compared to dark conditions using a 3Cu/CeTiO2−x catalyst. Kinetic analysis, as well as steady state and transient spectroscopy, was applied under photocatalytic conditions to analyze and disentangle the reaction channels under dark and illuminated ...

Catalytic Amyloids: Turning Fibrils Into Biocatalysts
Amyloids, traditionally associated with diseases, have emerged as versatile catalytic scaffolds. From natural amyloid sequences to bioinspired and de novo designs, we highlight strategies to construct catalytic active sites and anchor enzymes onto fibrils, creating versatile nanomaterials with tunable activities. ABSTRACT Amyloids have been regarded as
