Robust Analysis of Various Measurement Uncertainty Parameters in Rebound Hammer Test

open access: yesIndian Journal Of Science And Technology, 2023
Abstract Objective: The major objective of the proposed work is to determine the concrete’s expected compressive strength by evaluating the consistency of concrete using Rebound Hammer Test. Further, the determination of the quality of one component of the concrete relates to the quality of another component based on the concrete meeting criteria ...

Looking back on childhood experiences of homelessness: Stories of ongoing residential instability and resilience

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Families' experience of homelessness is typically examined from the perspective of parents during or shortly after a shelter stay. Parents complain about rules, surveillance, crowding, and challenges to parenting in both homeless shelters and in doubling up with other households (sharing the others' homes), and relief when they attain their ...

Navigating Whiteness in Australia's Anti‐Racism Movement: A Duoethnographic Inquiry by Women of Colour Scholars

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper applies Critical Race Theory (CRT) to explore how whiteness operates within Australia's anti‐racism movement as a structuring force that shapes discourse, practice and policy. Despite the anti‐racism movement offering crucial spaces for resistance and reform, it remains entangled in Australia's settler‐colonial present and systemic ...

Development of rating curves for concrete rebound hammer on concrete specimens from local aggregates [PDF]

open access: yes, 1957
Frequently engineers find it imperative to determine the compressive strength of concrete as it exists in a structure. There are two methods of making this determination, either by a destructive or a non-destructive test.

Leveraging Big Multitemporal Multisource Satellite Data and Artificial Intelligence for the Detection of Complex and Invisible Features: The Case of Extensive Irrigation Mapping

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The detection of buried or obscured archaeological features remains a central challenge in landscape archaeology, particularly in the irrigated floodplains of Mesopotamia where levees and canals formed the basis of complex agrarian systems. This study presents a deep learning–based approach for the large‐scale, automated detection of ancient ...

Between soft power and suspicion: Chinese international students as diasporic actors in U.S.‐China geopolitical tensions

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the under‐theorized political role and identity of Chinese international students, who emerge as significant actors caught between U.S. soft power ambitions and rising geopolitical suspicion. Amid escalating U.S.‐China tensions, these students are forced to confront environments shaped by competing geopolitical discourses ...

Pull Off test to evaluate the compressive strength of concrete: an alternative to Brazilian standard techniques

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais
To estimate the compressive strength of concrete is necessary in many reinforced concrete structures inspection works. In Brazil, the standard tests for this purpose are: Compressive test in drilled cores, rebound hammer test and ultrasonic test.

Powerful transformations: The experiences of higher education teaching staff who were first‐generation university students

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Historically, a university education has been seen primarily as a route for the middle classes to achieve professional qualifications while structural barriers have served to restrict entry to individuals from particular demographics. First‐generation students (FGS), often with low socio‐economic backgrounds, face multiple barriers to Higher ...

Strategies for Greater Inclusion of Indigenous Students in College Science Programs

open access: yesBiochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The substantial underrepresentation of American Indian, Alaskan Native, and Native Hawaiʻian (AI/AN/NH) students in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) majors at United States colleges and universities results from systemic barriers in higher education.
