On the Prospects for African Philosophy in Australia

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper grapples with the situation of people of African descent in Australia by working through the constitution of the body of academic philosophy in the country. It contends with the parochialism of the Australian philosophical community and the prospects for the cultivation of greater pluralism. Taking African philosophy as one possible

The Burst-Like Behavior of Aseismic Slip on a Rough Fault: The Creeping Section of the Haiyuan Fault, China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Recent observations suggesting the influence of creep on earthquakes nucleation and arrest are strong incentives to investigate the physical mechanisms controlling how active faults slip. We focus here on deriving generic characteristics of shallow creep

‘Literal torture’: Vulnerability, resilience and young people's experiences of pressure in physical education

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper combines vulnerability and resilience theory to explore the pressure young people experience in Physical Education (PE) and sport at secondary school. The theoretical framework was used to understand both how young people experience PE in school and how vulnerability and resilience function interdependently in social contexts like ...

Resolving Fine-Scale Heterogeneity of Co-seismic Slip and the Relation to Fault Structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Fault slip distributions provide important insight into the earthquake process. We analyze high-resolution along-strike co-seismic slip profiles of the 1992 M_w = 7.3 Landers and 1999 M_w = 7.1 Hector Mine earthquakes, finding a spatial correlation ...

Rising Strong: Cultivating Resilience in Edible City Entrepreneurship. Insights Into the Landscape of Urban Food Initiatives

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In response to growing global challenges, this study explores how social entrepreneurship within the Edible City movement contributes to building resilient, sustainable, and equitable urban food systems. Drawing on semistructured interviews with over 70 stakeholders across five cities—Berlin, Andernach, Oslo, Rotterdam, and Havana—we ...

The 3 December 1988 Pasadena, California earthquake: Evidence for strike-slip motion on the Raymond fault [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
The Pasadena earthquake (M_L = 4.9) occurred on 3 December 1988, at a depth of 16 km. The hypocenters of the earthquake and its aftershocks define a east-northeast striking, steeply northwest-dipping surface that projects up to the active surficial trace
