Understanding the thermodynamic effects of chemically reactive working fluids in the Stirling engine

open access: yesEnergy Conversion and Management: X
The Stirling engine, renowned for its high theoretical efficiency, is capable of partaking an active role in the current energy transition. Given its closed-cycle operation, the choice of the working fluid is pivotal in designing the Stirling engine ...

Low mood, worry and mind wandering in children

open access: yesBritish Journal of Developmental Psychology, Volume 43, Issue 4, Page 889-907, November 2025.
Abstract Previous research with adults and adolescents has established that mind wandering—characterized by a shift in attention from external tasks to internal thoughts—is associated with negative affect and reduced psychological well‐being, particularly when focused on past events.

Contributions to the Stirling Engine Study [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, 2018
In the process of transforming thermal energy into mechanical work, among the known thermal machines, the Stirling engine is the one that can achieve the highest yield (theoretically up to the maximum yield of the Carnot cycle), although in practice it is reduced by the properties of gas and materials used such as friction coefficient, thermal ...

Through the Lens of Fairness: A Qualitative Investigation into Co‐workers’ Perceptions of I‐deals

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, Volume 62, Issue 7, Page 3005-3043, November 2025.
Abstract Amidst the rapidly evolving work environment that increasingly necessitates personalized approaches towards employees, there is a pressing need to broaden our understanding of idiosyncratic deals (i‐deals) and their third‐party implications in the workplace.

Creating woodland through natural processes: Current understanding and knowledge gaps in Great Britain

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 4, October–December 2025.
Natural colonisation can successfully create structurally diverse, locally adapted woodlands in Britain, but the outcomes of this process can vary considerably. Combining natural colonisation and tree planting can incorporate the benefits of natural colonisation with a more predictable outcome for land managers.
