Effect of sintering cycle on the strength and translucency of multilayered zirconia

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose A newly introduced sintering protocol promises to offer higher translucency while not significantly compromising the flexural strength of the material. However, the effect of the novel sintering protocol has not been thoroughly validated.

Does the Threat of Killing Gays Deter Foreign Aid: The Case of Uganda's 2014 Anti‐Homosexuality Act

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Much attention has been drawn on Uganda in recent years due to the strengthening of its anti‐LGBTQ legislation and rhetoric. Our study explores the aid‐deterring effect of anti‐LGBTQ legislation in an experimental setting using the Synthetic Control Method.

Exploring the Disciplinary State: The Pace and Pattern of ‘Getting Tough’ in Denmark, Germany and the United Kingdom Since 1990

Social Policy &Administration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Welfare states in rich democracies have returned to a more ‘disciplinary’ agenda in recent decades. This has occurred roughly simultaneously with the so‐called ‘punitive turn’ in criminal justice. We argue that it makes sense to analyse the two movements together, as manifestations of the novel concept of the ‘disciplinary state’. Empirically,

Re‐spiritualising geographies of subjectivity through Daoism

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Drawing on Daoist philosophy, this intervention provides an alternative account of spiritual selfhood that harmonises disconnections between subjectivity and the Universe around the lived body. It invokes a cosmological selfhood through re‐spiritualising the bodily geographies of subjectivity.

Toughening of graphite-epoxy composites by interlaminar perforated Mylar films [PDF]

Fracture and notch strength tests of graphite-epoxy composites showed that unidirectional lay-ups generally exhibit longitudinal cracking before failure, whereas multidirectional lay-ups fail transversely with little longitudinal cracking.
