Doing Business in Zones of Legal Risk: Patterns of Corporate Involvement in Atrocity Crimes Since World War II

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Involvement of corporations in international crimes and conflict atrocities, such as crimes against humanity, war crimes and genocide, are neither isolated events nor uncommon. Importantly, corporate involvement in atrocity crimes is shaped by conditions in “zones of legal risk” (International Commission of Jurists), where gross human rights ...

Building Community Amidst the Institutional Whiteness of Graduate Study: Black Joy and Maroon Moves in an Academic Marronage

Australian Journal of Social Issues, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 459-469, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This article reflects on the construction of a supportive community of Black Afro‐diasporic graduate students and their supervisors researching issues relating to race in the field of education in Australia. It draws on the concept of marronage—a term rooted in the fugitive act of becoming a maroon, where enslaved people enacted an escape in ...

B‐WIM System Development for a Railway Bridge based on simulated data

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 2971-2976, September 2026.
Abstract Bridge Weigh‐In‐Motion (B‐WIM) technology can estimate axle loads and traffic parameters directly from structural responses, making it a valuable tool for structural health monitoring (SHM). Although there are developing benchmarks for road bridges, its application to railway bridges is limited due to unique challenges.

Evaluating the effect of compaction on soil hydraulic properties

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
Abstract Soil compaction is commonly viewed by agronomists as an undesirable consequence of intensive agricultural activities arising from heavy machinery or livestock trampling. However, deliberate compaction of the furrow bottom has been considered as a potential water management practice to reduce deep percolation losses and improve furrow ...

Wim Wenders’ Use of Space in The Million Dollar Hotel [PDF]

, 2008
Wim Wenders has been quoted as saying, of his own development as a filmmaker, that he is “a painter of space engaged on a quest for time” (qtd. in Graf, 2002, p.63). This paper offers a systematic assessment of the way Wenders creates the filmic space of

Overcoming Printing and Interfacial Challenges in Liquid Metal Direct Writing for Integrated Stretchable Electronics

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 15, 7 August 2026.
Liquid metal direct writing is advanced from a technological and fundamental point. Utilizing a kinematic bed, printing on large surfaces with irregularities is enabled. Furthermore, a pressure‐driven flow during printing is discovered that affects the thickness of traces.

STRATEGIES FOR AXLE DETECTION IN BRIDGE WEIGH-IN-MOTION SYSTEMS [PDF]

, 2012
To perform effectively, a Bridge Weigh-in-Motion (B-WIM) system requires accurate information on the location and speed of all axles on the bridge. In recent years, axle detection is by sensors under the bridge – so called Free-of-Axle-Detector or ...

Use of Finite Elements Analysis for a Weigh-in-Motion Sensor Design<em></em>

Sensors, 2012
High speed weigh-in-motion (WIM) sensors are utilized as components of complex traffic monitoring and measurement systems. They should be able to determine the weights on wheels, axles and vehicle gross weights, and to help the classification of vehicles
