Electrolytic smelting of lunar rock for oxygen, iron, and silicon [PDF]
Preliminary studies of the electrochemical properties of silicate melts such as those available from heating of lunar mare soils indicate that conductivities are high enough for design of a practical electrolytic cell.

High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In heavy metal industrial areas, the issue of insulation flashover caused by metal contamination on the external insulation of transmission lines has become increasingly prominent. This paper investigates the U160B/155 porcelain insulator, examining how iron, copper and zinc metal contaminations affect its AC flashover characteristics ...

Analysing policy success and failure in Australia: Pink batts and set‐top boxes
Australian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.Abstract This article examines two Australian government programs from the Rudd/Gillard Labor government, the Home Insulation Program (HIP) and the Digital Switchover Household Assistance Scheme (HAS). Both became shibboleths of the Labor government's perceived waste and incompetence.

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.This article explores the activities of daily life in a village neighbouring the TEPCO nuclear power plant in Fukushima. It argues that one of the potentials of taking a dwelling perspective – a phenomenological approach to living within the ecological and social environments – emerges most compellingly within a polluted landscape.

A framework for capturing indirect impacts in site‐level screening for biodiversity risks
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Site‐based industrial operations such as mining, oil and gas extraction and renewable energy development are associated with many direct and indirect impacts on biodiversity. Consideration of the full range of these impacts when selecting a buffer distance to approximate the Area of Influence (AoI) of a project is critical for effective ...
