Form and load transfer aspects of foundation systems: Case‐based implementation and adaptation for buildings

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Upon conceptualization of structural behavior, foundations in terms of their form are divided into linear (1D), planar (2D), and volumetric (3D). Regarding the load transfer mechanisms, linear foundation systems are considered vector‐acting, planar foundations are divided into section and surface‐acting, and volumetric ones are recognized as block ...

Dynamics of postnatal bone development and epiphyseal synostosis in the caprine autopod

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bones develop to structurally balance strength and mobility. Bone developmental dynamics are influenced by whether an animal is ambulatory at birth. Precocial species, which are ambulatory at birth, develop advanced skeletal maturity in utero and experience postnatal development under mechanical loading.

How Changing Narratives About the Future Shape Policymaking for the Long Term

open access: yesEuropean Policy Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How can we explain decisions by governments to engage in policy investments—accepting short‐term costs in return for anticipated gains in the longer term—after previously sustaining the status quo? Our article examines the role of narratives in changing expectations about the future as a key driver of intertemporal policymaking. In light of an

EU Policy‐Making in the Digital Age: Major Trends and Insights From Public Policy Research

open access: yesEuropean Policy Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Has digitalization changed policy‐making dynamics at the European Union (EU) level? To investigate this issue, this article presents a scoping review of the literature on EU digital policy‐making. While much scholarship adopts a ‘Governance’ approach, two conceptually rich strands emerge: critical approaches, and digital sovereignty.
