Engaging With Practitioners: The Case of the Accounting for Impact Diversity Event Mobiliser les personnes praticiennes : le cas de l'événement sur la diversité organisé par le réseau Accounting for Impact

Accounting Perspectives, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How can we bring together accounting academics and practitioners to engage in meaningful conversations about diversity, equity, inclusion, and Indigeneity (DEII)? This paper offers a reflection on DEII drawn from a diversity event held in Canada in 2024 by the academic initiative Accounting for Impact.

Prediction model for wheel profile wear and rolling contact fatigue

, 2011
A lifetime prediction tool for railway wheels and rails should be able to predict both wear and rolling contact fatigue (RCF), which are the two main deterioration phenomena.

Descriptron‐GBIF Annotator: A browser‐based platform for crowdsourced morphological annotation of biodiversity images

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract The biodiversity crisis demands new approaches to describing and characterising species that can scale beyond the capacity of professional taxonomists alone. Hundreds of millions of specimen images are now openly available, yet almost none carry structured information about the morphology they depict. We present the Descriptron‐GBIF Annotator,

Hybrid learning strategies: integrating supervised and reinforcement techniques for railway wheel wear management with limited measurement data

Frontiers in Built Environment
Train wheel wear significantly impacts wheel-rail interaction forces and is an unavoidable issue in the railway industry. This study focuses on regular wear, specifically changes in wheel profiles such as tread wear, flange height, and flange thickness ...

Effects of Metro Wheel Flange Lubrication on Wheel Wear

, 2017
In order to investigate the effect of flange lubrication on the wheel wear, tracking test in one metro line was made on the trains equipped with flange lubricator and the ones without flange lubricator. The results showed that for the tested line the wheel flange wear occurred in the range from -40 mm to -30 mm relative to nominal rolling circle with ...

Bridging the Late Antique Gap in Northwest Arabia: New Archaeological Evidence on the Occupation of Wādī al‐Qurā (al‐ʿUlā [AlUla], Saudi Arabia) Between the Third and Seventh Centuries CE

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2019, the Dadan Archaeological Project (CNRS/RCU/AFALULA) identified a Late Antique village 1 km south of ancient Dadan in the al‐ʿUlā valley (northwest Saudi Arabia). Three excavation seasons at this site (2021–2023) have uncovered a massive building constructed in the late third or early fourth cent.

An Overview of the Rock Art of AlUla: Tracing Changes in Content and Form Across 12,000 Years of Human History

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Between 2018 and 2021, the Identification and Documentation of Immovable Heritage Assets (IDIHA) Project recorded over 19,000 rock art panels in the AlUla (al‐‘Ulā) region of north‐western Saudi Arabia. This study presents a chronological assessment of the corpus, drawing on superimpositions, datable motifs, inscriptions, and varnish formation,

Heavy haul rail/wheel wear and RCF assessments using 3D train models and a new wear map

Wear and Rolling Contact Fatigue (RCF) on wheels and rails are influenced by relative motions between the studied rail and wheel pair, and therefore influenced by train dynamics.

New Results From the Pre‐Pottery Neolithic Site of Al Uyaynah, Tabuk, in Northwestern Saudi Arabia

Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Al Uyaynah is a low sandstone mound on an alluvial plain, long known for its extensive surface remains of stone‐built circular and rectangular structures. Following test excavations in 2012, more detailed excavation was undertaken in 2016 within one of the largest rectangular stone structures.
