Investigation of the effect of preload on the mechanical properties of fiber-reinforced geopolymer concrete [PDF]
Concrete may be loaded at an early age for a variety of reasons. This loading can have negative and sometimes destructive effects on the hardened properties of concrete.

The toughness of a graph \(G\), introduced by \textit{V. Chvátal} [Discrete Math. 5, 215-228 (1973; Zbl 0256.05122)] in studying hamiltonicity, is the largest real number \(t\) for which \(|S|\geq t\omega (G-S)\) for every \(S\subseteq V(G)\) with \(\omega (G-S)\geq 2\).

This paper examines the cultural politics of 'thrift' and 'tough love'. It reflects upon the significance of notions of 'good parenting' in policy and popular debates around social mobility and aspiration. In particular, it reviews the profound importance of notions of 'poor parenting' in the culturalisation of poverty, whereby poverty is seen to be a ...

Employment Protection: Tough to Scrap or Tough to Get? [PDF]
If legislating employment protection is a protracted process subject to time delays, then firms can dismiss workers before an increase in protection is implemented. Heightened risk of dismissal before implementation makes workers in countries with flexible labour markets reluctant to support proposals for more stringent protection.
