Giving Up

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Philosophical accounts of long‐term goals focus predominantly on the rationality of perseverance, examining when agents should persist despite evidence of failure. Arguably, these accounts consider that giving up is devoid of value. Conversely, this article argues that giving up has a different epistemic function: generating information about ...

Legacy and the Politics of Racial Terminology

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT When a term carries a sordid past, it is tempting to think it should have no future use. Yet the normative life of a word is rarely exhausted by its origins. This article develops legacy analysis as a method for enriching evaluation of what should be done with historically burdened terms. Rather than treating origins as decisive, the framework

The Art of Reception: Field Visits as Microcosms for Development Interventions of Non‐Governmental Organisations in Uganda

open access: yesJournal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Field visits are common phenomena with non‐governmental organisations in Uganda. During these visits, Ugandan national staff guide visitors on series of meetings and interactions in the field. Following an actor‐oriented approach and drawing on ethnographic data on 14 field visits, this paper understands the field visit as a microcosm for the ...

Psychological Contracts With Purpose: A Review and Path Forward

open access: yesJournal of Organizational Behavior, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review advances the understanding of psychological contracts (PCs) that include third‐party beneficiaries and transcend self‐interested goals, which we term “PCs with purpose.” PC theory has challenged the assumption that social exchange relies solely on balanced rewards and inducements, highlighting that individuals may wish to ...

Advancing Rigor in Operations Management Qualitative Research: From Proceduralism to Reflexive Reasoning

open access: yesJournal of Operations Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Qualitative research has evolved into a valued scientific approach to generate novel theoretical contributions in operations management (OM). However, a limited understanding of what constitutes methodological rigor in qualitative research has resulted in a proceduralized application of research practices and templates, hindering further ...

Chronic Hand Eczema of Charlie Chaplin

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Charlie Chaplin (1889–1977), one of the most iconic figures in cinema history, suffered throughout his career from a chronic hand eczema he consistently concealed behind white cotton gloves. According to his biographers, Chaplin attributed this condition to the prolonged handling of cellulose nitrate film stock during editing—a highly ...

Chemical Kinetics of 2‐, 4‐, and 2,4‐Seleno‐Uracils at Low Temperatures: Tautomerizations and Rotamerizations on Inert Matrices

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Kinetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the interstellar medium, chemical reactions proceed under conditions vastly different to those on Earth; these include extremely low temperatures and densities and take place in the gas phase and on water–ice grains. Understanding the energetics and more importantly the kinetics of such reactions is of relevance to the consequences on how ...

Mapping the Socialization Externalization Combination Internalization Model's Evolution: A Systematic Literature Review for Future Research

open access: yesKnowledge and Process Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This systematic literature review examines the evolution and contemporary relevance of the SECI model in knowledge management. A hybrid methodology, combining bibliometric analysis with the TCCM (Theories, Contexts, Characteristics, Methods) framework, was used to provide a comprehensive overview of the research domain.

Statistical Variability of Guided Ultrasonic Waves in SHM Systems for Damage Identification in CFRP Components

open access: yesMacromolecular Symposia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems based on Guided Ultrasonic Waves are pivotal for the transition from damage tolerance to condition‐based design in aerospace Composite Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) components. However, environmental and operational variability poses a critical challenge for baseline‐free methods.

Uncertainty, Sensitivity, and Efficiency Analysis of a Hybrid Piezoelectric–Electromagnetic Energy Harvester

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Digitalization and emerging technologies are increasing the demand for wireless sensing and the Internet of Things (IoT), which provide opportunities for autonomous sources of electricity in the form of energy harvesting systems. This paper focuses on the challenges in hybrid piezoelectric‐electromagnetic kinetic energy harvesting systems that
