The big impact of small change: Fresh estimates of English wheat market integration, 1693–1893

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Using existing and new price data sets, we provide the first estimates of market integration across England over the entire 200 years of the industrial revolution. We document a significant, though not huge, integration improvement for markets furthest from London. Full integration was achieved by the 1830s. Our price data sets vary in quality

Risk premia reconsidered: Illiquidity and selection bias for stocks and corporate bonds in the pre‐First World War period

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Financial history is plagued by a visibility trap. Using the Brussels Stock Exchange (1850–1913), we demonstrate that asset illiquidity introduced selection bias, which systematically inflated historical risk premia. Applying a latent return model, we argue that correcting for this illiquidity decreases the equity and corporate bond risk ...

Early Outer Hair Cell Dysfunction Associated With Educational Noise Exposure in Dental Students: Implications for Hearing Conservation in Dental Education

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Dental education involves continuous exposure to high‐frequency noise from clinical instruments, which may cause early outer hair cell damage even before professional practice begins. While noise‐induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a recognised occupational hazard among dentists, evidence regarding subclinical outer hair cell changes ...

Analysis of flow and aerodynamic noise behaviour of a simplified high-speed train bogie inside the bogie cavity

, 2014
Aerodynamic noise becomes significant for high-speed trains but its prediction in an industrial context is difficult. The flow and aerodynamic noise behaviour of a simplified high-speed train bogie at scale 1:10 are studied here through numerical ...

The aesthetic sublime of megaproject structures: A framework and a research agenda

European Management Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The physical structures of megaprojects—such as mega‐canals, metros, railway lines, bridges, tunnels, and iconic opera houses—hold a profound capacity to generate aesthetic experiences with enduring societal impact. Yet, research on megaprojects has predominantly focused on functionality and economic rationale with aesthetics being pushed to ...

Applicability of synthetic fibre reinforced concrete for railway sleepers

, 2019
Currently, the railway industry is forced to implement innovative sleeper materials due to the premature failure of conventional sleepers and the associated cost incurred in their replacement.

Connectivity and Selective Rural Migration

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How does infrastructure shape rural development? Using household panel data from a nationally representative sample of Chinese villages, matched to high‐resolution highway maps, we find that road expansion between 2000 and 2015 operates mainly through reallocation, with less productive farmers scaling down or exiting and more productive ...

Aerodynamic noise from a train pantograph

, 2014
Many studies have shown that when the speed of high speed trains exceeds around 300km/h, aerodynamic noise becomes the most significant noise source. The pantograph, or current collector, is mounted on the top of the train and is therefore not shielded ...

“Now You Know, Don't Be Indifferent”: The Emotional Correlates of Learning About Historical Violence and Their Relationship With Current Prosocial Motivation

Journal of Applied Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How does learning about historical violence inspire prosocial action today? Prior work has focused on whether such experiences are (emotionally) impactful but seldom tested the mechanisms of impact. We propose a framework of actor‐specific emotional pathways connecting knowledge of historical violence to contemporary upstanding intentions ...

Absent Europe: Civic Protest and the Erosion of EU Symbolism in Serbia

JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This article analyses the strategic management of European Union (EU) references in Serbia's 2024–2025 student mobilisation. Drawing on original fieldwork and 18 semi‐structured interviews, the article integrates framing theory with the Discourse‐Historical Approach to reconstruct how EU‐related meanings were produced and operationalised.
