A comparison of two frameworks for kinematic hardening in hyperelasto-plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this work we compare two frameworks for thermodynamically consistent hyperelasto-plasticity with kinematic hardening. The first was formulated by Dettmer and Reese (2004), inspired by Lion (2000), and has been used to model sheet metal forming.

Ratcheting of granular materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We investigate the quasi-static mechanical response of soils under cyclic loading using a discrete model of randomly generated convex polygons. This response exhibits a sequence of regimes, each one characterized by a linear accumulation of plastic ...

‘Gen Z Language? Y'all Mean AAVE’: The Appropriation of African American Vernacular English as ‘TikTok Language’

open access: yesJournal of Sociolinguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sociolinguistic research has long documented the appropriation of African American Vernacular English (AAVE) across media including film, music and advertising. In this article, we add to this body of work by exploring the digital recontextualisation of a subset of AAVE features as ‘TikTok/internet language’.

Tree stem methane emissions are regulated by site‐level biogeochemistry over species identity in Amazon floodplain forests

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Tree stems in Amazonian floodplains emit substantial methane (CH4), yet controls on emission variability remain unclear. Emissions span orders of magnitude between várzea (nutrient‐rich) and igapó (nutrient‐poor) forests and among trees, suggesting controls beyond flooding.

High temperature fatigue behavior of tungsten copper composites [PDF]

open access: yes
The high temperature fatigue behavior of a 9 vol percent, tungsten fiber reinforced copper matrix composite was investigated. Load-controlled isothermal fatigue experiments at 260 and 560 C and thermomechanical fatigue (TMF) experiments, both in phase ...

Ecological restoration hierarchy as a lens to reveal the foundational economic and legal structures impeding restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Biodiversity loss is accelerating due to habitat destruction, economic expansion, and insufficient conservation efforts. Traditional mitigation strategies, which focus on minimizing harm rather than reversing damage, are inadequate for achieving net biodiversity gain. Objectives This article introduces the restoration hierarchy, a

Simulating the Maximum Domain Wall Speed in a Magnetic Nanowire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The dynamics of domain wall motion in permalloy nanowires have been simulated utilizing the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation of motion. The simulation results are presented in terms of the domain wall speed for ranges of the Gilbert damping ...

Testing the Assumptions of History‐Dependent Approaches to Regulation: Comparing Compliant Companies With Those That Transgress

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Risk‐based approaches to regulatory governance are ubiquitous. One aspect of such approaches suggests regulators direct their attention towards companies that have already violated regulations. However, such approaches have made little use of available data to explore these companies, especially compared to companies that do not transgress ...

Corporate Power in a Multistakeholder World: Venue Hopping and the Multilevel Politics of Ultra‐Processed Food

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The regulation of business is increasingly characterized by “soft” governance regimes that blur the boundaries of public and private authority, as signaled by the rapid proliferation of multistakeholder initiatives in global governance. This article explores how the spread of multistakeholderism creates opportunities for new forms of strategic
