British Journal of Industrial Relations, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In the 2000s, questions were open on whether the EU eastern enlargement would contribute to upwards or downwards convergence in labour standards, or even to divergence. Over two decades later, it is possible not only to attempt an answer, but also to identify the industrial relations processes that mediate economic integration between widely ...

Tubes or Ribbons? Comparing Texture‐space Visualization for Multivariate Line Data
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Multivariate line data is critical for analyzing flow fields, agent systems, and dynamic trajectories. Embedding secondary variables along spatial paths using surface‐based primitives such as ribbons and circular tubes introduces challenges related to perspective, scale, and distortion.

Tangent Blow‐Ups for Processing Non‐Manifold Geometry
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Many geometry processing pipelines implicitly assume their input data is a manifold, or is sampled from one, with a unique tangent plane at every point. Geometric data, however, routinely contains sharp features like edges, corners, self‐intersections, branching junctions, and other singularities, rendering standard methods ill‐defined at ...

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study proposes a modelling framework for ice adhesive and bulk fracture. In this framework, adhesive and bulk fracture mechanisms are treated as distinct phenomena. Adhesive fracture is modelled using the well‐established cohesive zone model, which is widely used in the analysis of composite material delamination.

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Triploidy is an effective tool for producing sterile fishes but often results in impaired performance in commercial aquaculture. In light of this, our study compared the physiological response to exhaustive exercise in juvenile diploid and triploid Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus, a polar species with great potential for aquaculture.

Ship wake field analysis using a coupled BEMt-RANS approach
The prediction of a ship’s wake field and self-propulsion capabilities has traditionally been centered on experiments; however with the advancement in modern computing power, this can be achieved through the use of computational methods.

, 2015 Propelling a boat forward by converting wave energy into propulsive thrust was first proposed in 1858 and first successfully done in practice in the 1890s - to the author's knowledge. Several experimenters have since demonstrated the feasibility of wave-powered boats, both in model and full scale. The most common type of wave-powered boat, and also the
