Erving Goffman at 100: A Chameleon Seen as a Rorschach Test within a Kaleidoscope
Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.The 100th anniversary of Erving Goffman's birth was in 2022. Drawing on his work, the Goffman archives, the secondary literature, and personal experiences with him and those in his university of Chicago cohort, I reflect on some implications of his work and life, and the inseparable issues of understanding society.

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.Abstract Background Gastrolith ingestion is a known inherent behaviour in crocodiles. However, the interpretation of coelomic radiographs in crocodilians is challenging due to the limited informative literature in this field. Methods Dorsoventral coelomic radiographs of 49 juvenile saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) were acquired twice, with an ...

Integrated Learning‐Based Ageing Assessment of Silicone Rubber
High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The surface ageing of silicone rubber composite insulators, widely used in power systems, poses significant challenges. This study integrates Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy with machine learning to evaluate ageing states and explore underlying mechanisms under various environmental conditions.

High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Low‐voltage cables insulated with silicone rubber were harvested from three locations in the primary containment vessel of a boiling water nuclear power plant (NPP). Subsequently, the cable, which was placed in an ambient environment with a relatively higher temperature and the highest rate, was cut into four shorter ones.

High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT With increasing demands for fire safety and environmental friendliness, retrofilling transformers with alternative insulating liquids has become a growing trend. However, retrofilling power transformers remains uncertain, as more residual mineral oil compromises K‐class flame retardancy, and its impact on environmental performance has yet to ...
