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

British 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 ...

Development of a BDD-based methodology to estimate importance measures in seismic probabilistic risk assessment

Nuclear Engineering and Technology
Probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) evaluates the core damage frequency (CDF) as the plant risk by considering failure events such as failure of structures, systems, and components (SSCs) and failure of operator's actions.

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

Civil 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

Multihazard capacity optimization of an NPP using a multi-objective genetic algorithm and sampling-based PSA

Nuclear Engineering and Technology
After the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami (Japan, 2011), regulatory efforts to mitigate external hazards have increased both the safety requirements and the total capital cost of nuclear power plants (NPPs).

Seismic scattering signatures of small-scale heterogeneities: examples from the Mount Messenger Formation, New Zealand [PDF]

Heterogeneity that is on a length scale just below that of a seismic wavelength is at the limit of resolution but may still cause significant wave scattering.

Bond Formation: Shaken, Not Stirred

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Shaking of seismo‐molecules efficiently transforms kinetic energy into storable chemical potential, unlocking high‐utility Gibbs free energy. This innovative mechanism pioneers uncharted scientific frontiers, introducing fascinating phenomena like seismochemistry, seismochromism, and seismofluorescence that redefine the boundaries of molecular ...

Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating
