National and International Monitoring of Student Literacy and Numeracy Attainment: The Case for Rigorous Macro and Micro Analysis

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In her 2024 paper Are Australian students' academic skills declining? Interrogating 25 years of national and international standardised assessment data, Larsen compiled an impressive summary of major international (PISA, PIRLS and TIMSS) and national (NAPLAN) standardised assessments pertaining to literacy and numeracy.

Owning Home, Finding Belonging: Relational Meanings of Homeownership for Migrant Healthcare Workers in Australia

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Migrant healthcare workers in Australia find themselves at the centre of three intersecting concerns, often presented as ‘crises’ in contemporary discourse: the ‘care crisis’, the ‘housing crisis’ and the ‘migration crisis.’ Yet their own perspectives on these issues are rarely foregrounded. This paper explores the role of homeownership in the

Thermal radiation effect on MHD stagnation point flow with partial slip

open access: yesInternational Journal of Thermofluids
The coupled effect of MHD stagnation point flow and thermal radiation over a shrinking sheet with partial slip is explored. The existence of dual solutions is investigated and studied for velocity, temperature and velocity gradient profiles.

Hybrid Inertial–Centrifugal Gas–Liquid Separator: CFD‐Driven Optimization Using Coupled Discrete Phase and Wall‐Film Modeling With Response Surface Methodology

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient removal of liquid aerosols from compressed gas streams is essential in chemical and energy processes. Conventional separators relying on a single mechanism (inertial or centrifugal) struggle to capture both fine and coarse droplets simultaneously.

Stagnation-Point flow over an exponentially shrinking/stretching sheet

open access: yes, 2011
The steady two-dimensional stagnation-point flow of an incompressible viscous fluid over an exponentially shrinking/stretching sheet is studied. The shrinking/stretching velocity, the free stream velocity, and the surface temperature are assumed to vary ...
