Modeling ship-wake-induced sediment transport and morphological change – sediment module in FUNWAVE-TVD

open access: yes, 2019
PURPOSE: This technical note documents the sediment transport module and morphological module developed in the Boussinesq wave model, FUNWAVE-TVD. The sediment transport module is based on the quasi-steady flow assumption, which is believed to be a more ...

Unnatural Wills: Inheritance Disputes and Inequality

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Within the conceptual frame of relational economic sociology, inheritance disputes are a canonical form of relational mismatch. But the social patterning of relational mismatches, and their various ties to inequality, remain murky. In this paper, I examine all known inheritance disputes in Dallas from 1895–1945 within their social context to ...

Monetary integration and purchasing power parity between Singapore and Britain during the 19th century

open access: yesAsia‐Pacific Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the development of purchasing power parity between Singapore and Britain during the 19th century. Using new monthly data from 1831 to 1872, it finds that real exchange rates became more stable after the late 1850s. This convergence was supported by growing connections in international bullion markets, which reduced exchange
