English teachers' journeys since the 2020 Iteration of Black Lives Matter

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The 2020 resurgence of Black Lives Matter (BLM) mobilised students in England to demand greater representation of racially minoritised voices in English curriculums—a call highlighted by stark inequity: just 1.5% of GCSE texts studied are by racially minoritised authors, despite racially minoritised students comprising 38.0% of the student ...

Effect of the transverse reinforcement spacing in nodal zones on the seismic behavior factor of RC frames according to Algerian design code RPA99/version2003

open access: yesJournal of Building Materials and Structures
The seismic behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) frames is significantly influenced by the confinement provided by transverse reinforcement. This study investigates the effect of transverse reinforcement spacing on the seismic behavior factor (R) of ...

Seismic attenuation in Faroe Islands basalts [PDF]

open access: yes
We analysed vertical seismic profiling (VSP) data from two boreholes at Glyvursnes and Vestmanna on the island of Streymoy, Faroe Islands, to determine the magnitude and causes of seismic attenuation in sequences of basalt flows.

Resolving the biome debate: ecological and palaeo‐data concur that the extensive tree‐limited grassy biomes of central and north‐western Madagascar are largely anthropogenic

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For millennia, human activities have transformed ecosystems globally. Determining which landscapes are predominantly anthropogenic is crucial to conservation and habitat restoration. Madagascar, a critically‐threatened biodiversity hotspot, is a prominent example.

Comparison of Acceleration Amplification for Seismic Behavior Characteristics Analysis of Electrical Cabinet Model: Experimental and Numerical Study

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Given the critical role of electrical cabinets in the post-earthquake recovery and emergency response of nuclear power plants (NPPs), a comprehensive assessment of their seismic performance is essential to ensure operational safety.

Ensemble‐based soil liquefaction assessment: Leveraging CPT data for enhanced predictions

open access: yesCivil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 23-35, March 2025.
Abstract This study focuses on predicting soil liquefaction, a critical phenomenon that can significantly impact the stability and safety of structures during seismic events. Accurate liquefaction assessment is vital for geotechnical engineering, as it informs the design and mitigation strategies needed to safeguard infrastructure and reduce the risk ...

Numerical Investigation on the Seismic Behavior of Novel Precast Beam–Column Joints with Mechanical Connections

open access: yesBuildings
Traditional cast-in-place beam–column joints have the defects of high complexity and high construction difficulty, which seriously affect the efficiency and safety of the building construction line, and precast beam–column joints (PBCJs) can greatly ...

Hyperledger Fabric for the (digitalized) lifecycle of construction products: Applied review on fastening technology

open access: yesCivil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 9-22, March 2025.
Abstract Blockchain technology is a digital decentralized data ledger recording transactions in an encrypted format. Its implementation can potentially hold significant advantages for the built environment, particularly in manufacturing and building product usage aligned with Building Information Modeling (BIM). This paradigm shift toward decentralized

One-dimensional physical reference models for the upper mantle and transition zone: combining seismic and mineral physics constraints [PDF]

open access: yes
One-dimensional seismic reference models are known to be a nonunique solution to global seismic data, hampering an interpretation in terms of physical structure. Here we test the compatibility of the simplest hypothesis of a mantle convecting as a whole,
