Promoting Precarity or Creating Cushions? Examining Canadians' Experiences With Financialization and Insecurity Across the Life Course

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines experiences and perceptions of economic insecurity across individual social trajectories within the context of pervasive financialization in Canada. Drawing on a comprehensive pan‐Canadian survey (n = 7483) and set of interviews (n = 127) collected as part of the Great Canadian Class Study (GCCS), we use a mixed‐methods ...

The nonlinear Maxwell-type model for viscoelastoplastic materials: simulation of temperature influence on creep, relaxation and strain-stress curves

open access: yesVestnik Samarskogo Gosudarstvennogo Tehničeskogo Universiteta. Seriâ: Fiziko-Matematičeskie Nauki, 2017
The nonlinear Maxwell-type constitutive relation with two arbitrary material functions for viscoelastoplastic multi-modulus materials is studied analytically in uniaxial isothermic case to reveal the model abilities and applicability scope and to develop

How Due Diligence Transforms Private Sustainability Governance: The Case of the Global Organic Textile Standard

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Growing awareness of social and environmental risks in global supply chains has driven a shift from voluntary corporate responsibility toward mandatory due diligence legislation. These emerging regulatory frameworks require businesses to identify, prevent, and mitigate adverse human rights and environmental impacts, thereby redefining the ...

Climate Delegates' Views on the Dynamic Incentive Mechanism Under the Paris Agreement

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Paris Agreement establishes a bottom‐up global action plan with the aim of limiting global warming to well below 2°C above preindustrial levels, where countries should pledge Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) of the highest possible ambition. The design of the agreement gives national authorities the freedom to decide on their own

A study on plastic strain accumulation caused by traveling of temperature distribution synchronizing with temperature rise

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2016
The prevention of excessive deformation by thermal ratcheting is important in the design of high-temperature components of fast breeder reactors (FBR). This includes evaluation methods for a new type of thermal ratcheting caused by an axial traveling of ...

Cyclic Ratcheting Resistance of Buried Pipelines

open access: yes, 2017
Upheaval buckling (UHB) is a common issue for high pressure and high temperature (HPHT) pipelines. The out-of-straightness (OOS) of the buried pipelines combined with the high axial compressive forces induced by the extreme operating conditions causes ...
