Pre‐Treatment Fear of Weight Gain Is Associated With Engagement in a Greater Degree of Pre‐Treatment Maladaptive Exercise Among Individuals With Binge‐Spectrum Eating Disorders

open access: yesEuropean Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Individuals with binge‐spectrum eating disorders (EDs) engage in varying degrees of maladaptive and adaptive exercise. Elevated shape/weight concern is associated with engagement in maladaptive and adaptive exercise. No research has examined whether specific facets of shape/weight concern (e.g., fear of weight gain) are associated ...

Forced Draught Impact on Externally Venting Flames: An Experimental and Numerical Investigation

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wind can significantly influence fire development and spread in urban and forest environments causing fatal consequences for the public, the first responders, and the environment. Wind‐driven fires can have a significant impact on structural fires as wind can increase the fire's intensity, development, and flame spread.

Effects of prescribed fire on Cope’s Gray Treefrog (Hyla chrysoscelis) across habitat scales and life stages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Fire may alter both aquatic and terrestrial habitat used by all amphibian life stages, yet, our knowledge of its effects on amphibians is primarily limited to adult responses. I present an integrated approach to test the response of Cope’s Gray Treefrog (

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Cedar Façade Flame Spread With Respect to Sidewall

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In response to growing energy conservation and carbon neutrality efforts, façade systems incorporating wooden materials have attracted increasing attention, which in turn raises concerns about their combustibility. This study presents a combined experimental and numerical investigation of flame spread along cedar façades.
