Environmental Statecraft, Fragmented Authoritarianism, and Technocratic Governance: The Structure and Agency of China's Local Environmental Politics

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Local environmental politics in China is often said to be dominated by state‐controlled modes of multi‐level governance. However, top‐down governance is embedded within and transformed by local politics, adding complexity to governance practices and environmental outcomes.

Experimental determination of the initial compressive strength of concrete using a rebound test hammer

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2018
This paper deals with rebound hammer testing of concrete in the early stage of ageing. Six types of concrete were produced for the purpose of the presented experiment and differed in the water/cement ratio and were otherwise identical as to the input components.

The genetic architecture of epilepsy across molecular mechanisms and clinical heterogeneity

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy comprises a highly heterogeneous group of neurological disorders unified by a persistent predisposition to recurrent seizures, yet driven by remarkably diverse genetic, molecular, and network‐level mechanisms. Advances in genomic technologies have revealed that epilepsy arises from a multilayered genetic architecture encompassing rare

Nutritional, Functional, and Anti‐Hypercholesterolemic Properties of Sourdough Breads From Unripe Plantain, Tiger Nut, and Fenugreek Flours

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Composite sourdough breads were developed from blends of unripe plantain, tiger nut, and fenugreek flours. Optimized formulations improved pasting stability and enhanced texture, producing softer more elastic crumbs. The enriched breads contained higher dietary fiber and bioactive compounds, and significantly reduced serum cholesterol markers ...
