Crime and punishment in the outback: A review of extractive and destructive green crime cases in Australia's criminal justice system

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Wildlife and environmental crime is a global issue, but regional assessments of these crimes and their impacts are lacking. We reviewed publicly available case files from Australia's intermediate and higher courts to construct a dataset providing insight into the nature and extent of these crimes in an Australian context.

Absence of trapped surfaces and singularities in cylindrical collapse

open access: yes, 2002
The gravitational collapse of an infinite cylindrical thin shell of generic matter in an otherwise empty spacetime is considered. We show that geometries admitting two hypersurface orthogonal Killing vectors cannot contain trapped surfaces in the vacuum ...

Trade agreements with limited punishments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This paper shows that free trade can never be achieved when punishment for deviation from a trade agreement is limited to ‘a withdrawal of equivalent concessions’.

Non linear equation of state and effective phantom divide in brane models

open access: yes, 2010
Here, DGP model of brane-gravity is analyzed and compared with the standard general relativity and Randall-Sundrum cases using non-linear equation of state. Phantom fluid is known to violate the weak energy condition. In this paper, it is found that this

FE8 type laboratory testing of white etching crack (WEC) bearing failure mode in 100Cr6

open access: yesWear, 2019
WEC is an aggressive and unpredictable failure mode affecting bearings in particular in the wind energy sector. This paper focuses on the most common used method for WEC laboratory accelerated testing, the FE8 type test rigs using martensitic through ...

Using Flexible Blades to Improve the Performance of Novel Small-Scale Counter-Rotating Self-Adaptable Wave Energy Converter for Unmanned Marine Equipment

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
Unmanned marine equipment has been increasingly developed for open seas. The lack of efficient and reliable power supply is currently one of the bottlenecks restricting the practical application of these devices. In order to provide a viable power supply

Numerical simulation of an array of heaving floating point absorber wave energy converters using OpenFOAM [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper we use the CFD toolbox OpenFOAM to perform numerical simulations of multiple floating point absorber Wave Energy Converters (WECs) in a numerical wave basin.

Weighted Effect Coding for Observational Data with wec

open access: yesThe R Journal, 2017
Weighted effect coding refers to a specific coding matrix to include factor variables in generalised linear regression models. With weighted effect coding, the effect for each category represents the deviation of that category from the weighted mean ...
