American Ethnologist, EarlyView.Abstract For women ethnographers, research involving predominantly male far‐right activists can involve many challenges—ethical, methodological, and emotional. Drawing on interviews and long‐term participant observation, I reflect on my fieldwork with Polish far‐right activists in the UK.

TerraTinker: Crafting Playful Geospatial Visualizations
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract With the onset of digital technologies, conveying information to the young generation is becoming evermore challenging, forcing us to explore alternative methods, such as using video games. A typical area that could benefit from innovation is geography, where we want to convey the relationship between selected geographical locations and ...

Design oriented simulation of contact-friction instabilities in application to realistic brake assemblies [PDF]
, 2010 This paper presents advances in non-linear simulations for systems with contact-friction, with an application to brake squeal. A method is proposed to orient component structural modifications from brake assembly simulations in the frequency and time ...

Constrained Layer Damper Modelling and Performance Evaluation for Eliminating Squeal Noise in Trams
Shock and Vibration, 2014 This paper presents the modelling and design of a constrained layer damper to eliminate squeal noise in a particular tram. Even though resilient wheels are installed in every bogie, squeal noise is generated at the frequency of 780–800 Hz due to the ...

Children &Society, EarlyView.Abstract This article explores the ways in which ‘forest school’, an educational approach where children engage in creative and play based activities in a ‘natural’ environment, can contribute towards Sustainable Development Goal 15 (SDG 15) by promoting sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems and by helping address biodiversity loss. Drawing on data

Effects of material properties on generation of brake squeal noise using finite element method
Latin American Journal of Solids and StructuresThis research paper is concerned with the disc brake squeal problem for passenger cars. The aim of the present research is developing a finite element model of the disc brake assembly in order to improve understanding of the influence of Young's modulus ...

Importance of the Wheel Vertical Dynamics in the Squeal Noise Mechanism on a Scaled Test Bench
Shock and Vibration, 2012 This paper investigates the influence of the wheel vertical dynamics in the mechanism of squeal noise on a scaled test bench. To this purpose, sustained oscillations are first studied on a single degree of freedom oscillator, considering both a ...

Ibis, EarlyView.Climatic change and anthropogenic disturbances are reshaping animal populations. Habitat loss and extreme climatic events are particularly strong drivers of declines in species that depend on forested areas. For migratory songbirds, climate and the persistence of suitable habitat over time are fundamental to sustaining populations annually.
