Development of a Generic Analysis Method for Isothiazolinones in Consumer Products Prompted by Increased Sensitisation to Benzisothiazolinone

open access: yesContact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
An analysis method using simple instrumentation was developed to investigate isothiazolinones in cosmetic and household products in patch test investigations. Analysis showed that concentrations of benzisothiazolinone can be several orders of magnitude higher than those of chloromethylisothiazolinone/methylisothiazolinone in products to which skin ...

Application of formal optimization techniques in thermal/structural design of a heat-pipe-cooled panel for a hypersonic vehicle [PDF]

open access: yes
Nonlinear mathematical programming methods are used to design a radiantly cooled and heat-pipe-cooled panel for a Mach 6.7 transport. The cooled portion of the panel is a hybrid heat-pipe/actively cooled design which uses heat pipes to transport the ...

Women's Representation on Boards and Board Processes: Curvilinear Relationships, Moderated by Board Chair Authentic Leadership

open access: yesCorporate Governance: An International Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research Question/Issue We examine how women's representation on boards (WRB) shapes board processes (effort norms, cognitive conflict, and use of knowledge and skills) and how board chairs' leadership moderates those relationships. Our theory integrates insights from information processing theory with intergroup threat theory.

Textile and colour defect detection using deep learning methods

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advances in deep learning (DL) have significantly enhanced the detection of textile and colour defects. This review focuses specifically on the application of DL‐based methods for defect detection in textile and coloration processes, with an emphasis on object detection and related computer vision (CV) tasks.
