In Defence of Food: A Comparative Study of Conversas' and Moriscas' Dietary Laws as a Form of Cultural Resistance in the Early Modern Crown of Aragon

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research explores the adaptive strategies employed by Conversas (Christian women of Jewish origin) and Moriscas (Christian women of Muslim origin) in navigating adversity, particularly in their interactions with inquisitorial authorities in the early modern Crown of Aragon. This study analyses these women's efforts to uphold religious and

Aerodynamic Characteristics Analysis of Floating Wind Turbine Subjected to Different Wind and Platform Movement Directions

Fluids
Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) are subjected to complex oceanic environmental loads, which can result in non-collinear wind and wave directions that may not align with the rotor axis, potentially leading to complex variations in aerodynamic ...

‘A Sort of Armed Argument’: Ireland's Civil War of Words

History, EarlyView.
Abstract This article sets out to contribute to the study of the languages of European civil wars through outlining and analysing the deployment of language as a weapon by the opposing sides of the Irish independence movement that split over the terms of the Anglo‐Irish Treaty of December 1921.

‘Sinister Indian‐like Half‐circle’: Tennis, Orientalism and the White Racial Frame in the Twentieth‐Century British Sporting Press

History, EarlyView.
Abstract Examining sport alongside race, media and imperial power opens a rich field for understanding how macro‐level ideologies are shaped and circulated through everyday cultural forms. In twentieth‐century Britain, mass media framed and distributed narratives that rendered the empire's political realities intelligible to a broad public.

Sino‐Mexican Encounters Before the ‘Diplomatic Opening’: Exhibition Diplomacy and Grassroots Friendship in the 1960s

History, EarlyView.
Abstract During the 1960s, Mexico's Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) embraced Chinese overtures for a commercial opening as consistent with its anti‐imperialist posture, thereby foreshadowing the diplomatic opening to China in 1972. Yet this professed ideological pluralism was eclipsed by an underlying allegiance to the United States' anti ...

Transient CFD Study of Aerodynamic Interaction Between Heavy-Duty Trucks During Highway Merging and Platoon Formation Under Crosswind

Fluids
Highway merging and platoon formation are critical scenarios in heavy-duty vehicle aerodynamics. This study presents a transient computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of two trucks undergoing a merging maneuver and subsequent platoon formation.

A multi-fidelity model intercomparison for wake steering of a large turbine in a conventionally neutral atmospheric boundary layer [PDF]

Wind Energy Science
Wake steering is a promising control strategy for wind farm optimization, yet its effectiveness depends on the accuracy of underlying aerodynamic and structural models.

Analysis of a Low-Angle Annular Expander Nozzle

Shock and Vibration, 2015
An experimental and numerical analysis of a low-angle annular expander nozzle is presented to observe the variance in shock structure within the flow field. A RANS-based axisymmetric numerical model was used to evaluate flow characteristics and the model

Measurements of wake-induced electron beam deflection in a dechirper at the Linac Coherent Light Source

, 2017
The RadiaBeam/SLAC dechirper, a structure consisting of pairs of flat, metallic, corrugated plates, has been installed just upstream of the undulators in the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS). As a dechirper, with the beam passing between the plates on axis, longitudinal wakefields are induced that can remove unwanted energy chirp in the beam. However,
