PROPERTIES AND PERFORMANCE OF VACUUM INSULATED GLAZING

open access: yesJournal of Green Building, 2014
INTRODUCTION As energy codes become more stringent, maximising the energy efficiency of the glazing used in buildings becomes of greater importance. Many new solutions have been proposed to reduce heat transfer through windows. One such technology that is currently growing in prominence is vacuum insulated glazing (VIG).

The aesthetic sublime of megaproject structures: A framework and a research agenda

open access: yesEuropean Management Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The physical structures of megaprojects—such as mega‐canals, metros, railway lines, bridges, tunnels, and iconic opera houses—hold a profound capacity to generate aesthetic experiences with enduring societal impact. Yet, research on megaprojects has predominantly focused on functionality and economic rationale with aesthetics being pushed to ...

Ultra‐High‐Speed Sintering of 3.5Y‐TZP Zirconia: Time Reduction Without Compromising Translucency

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To assess, firstly, the impact of three sintering speeds on translucency and grain size of 3.5Y‐TZP zirconia (Katana HT) across clinically relevant thicknesses, and secondly, the effect of thermocycling on translucency. Materials and Methods Disc specimens were fabricated at six thicknesses (0.7–2.0 mm) and sintered using SLOW (7 h),

Facilitating Marketization à contrecœur: Why Stakeholders May Continue to Support Organizations that Introduce Market Practices Violating their Values

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Research on institutional logics provides ample evidence that market logic and its associated practices have spread across fields within capitalist societies – a phenomenon commonly called ‘marketization’. However, logics research has paid little attention to the individual‐level mental processes that facilitate marketization.
