Listening to Hong Kong children's perspectives through pretend play
British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Quality in early childhood education and care (ECEC) has become an increasing concern in recent years. The issue has been regularly discussed by different stakeholders. However, the rising concern regarding quality in ECEC has not seriously taken into account children's perspectives.

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT One of the major subfields of chemical ecology is the study of toxins and how they mediate interactions between organisms. Toxins produced by harmful algae (phycotoxins) impact a wide variety of organisms connected to the marine food web. Significant research efforts have thus aimed to identify the ecological and evolutionary drivers behind ...

The Generalized-Method in Taguchi Experiments
, 1997 In the presence of variability control factors in Taguchi experiments, then the original L-method (Logothetis, 1990) is liable to lead to wrong transformations. We propose a generalization of the Lß-method which should lead to correct transformations, even if there is a variability control factor which also in uences the mean.

IJIEM - Indonesian Journal of Industrial Engineering and Management, 2022 In the industrial transformation of animal feed for chickens, downtime analysis is a crucial part of the plant's operations. Unfortunately, the literature on downtime analysis has a serious shortcoming; it fails to link downtime with Taguchi method’s optimization and ranking. To correct this deficiency, this paper proposes a new method that couples the

Evaluation of the Shock Absorption Capacity of Polymeric Specimens Manufactured by 3D Printing
Macromolecular Symposia, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In the current context, due to the accelerated development of additive manufacturing, parts made of polymeric materials such as polylactic acid (PLA) manufactured by 3D printing are increasingly used. Such applications can be used, for example, in situations involving dynamic loads, where the shock energy absorption properties are essential ...
