Selective and non-selective excitation/ionization processes in analytical glow discharges: excitation of the ionic spectra in argon/helium mixed plasmas by Mushtaq, Sohail, Steers, Edward B. M., Pickering, Juliet C., Putyera, Karol

“…The presence of added gases in the plasma gas can cause major changes in the number density of plasma gas ions and metastable atoms and so affects the intensities of spectral lines involving selective and non-selective excitation & ionization processes. …”

The casa: architecture students in residence - Die Casa: Architekturstudierende in residence by Denicke-Polcher, Sandra, McAllister, Jane

“…This has a two-fold effect for the project as a whole, as it builds local awareness and confidence through engaging with “paperless” live building projects, but also ignites the imagination of the local population through the paper-based, visions of Belmonte as a new civic place for living, learning and working. …”

The neoliberal convergence of European industrial relations: economic inevitability or result of European political choices? by Jefferys, Steve

“…But the authors neglect the way capital manifests itself through the choices made by living capitalists and their managers. Nevertheless, they make an important contribution to understanding how far Western Europe’s capitalist classes and managers have, from the 1980s to the 2000s, acted in new political and industrial ways as a result of having embraced, or been taken over by, a ‘mass movement’ of managerialism in the US and Western Europe closely allied to the new free-market political right, and the much higher levels of interpenetration of US and Western European capital.…”

Observations of impacted, frozen Lunar and Martian regolith simulants by Tandy, Jonathan D., Price, Mark, Wozniakiewicz, Penny, Cole, Mike, Hibbert, Ricky, Avdellidou, Chrysa

“…An examination of impact flashes from frozen Lunar and Martian simulant (JSC-1A and JSC-1 respectively) was carried out in order to better understand the physical and chemical behaviour of the highly energetic, short-lived, ejecta cloud. The relative emission intensity and decay from the impact ejecta were examined across 10 spectral regions and a semi-quantitative analysis of the peak flash intensity and relative densities of the frozen targets carried out. …”

Institutionalised: the rise of Islamophobia in higher education by Akel, Sofia

“…The report draws on seminal sector data that allows, for the first time, intersectional analysis across both race and religion. Additionally, shared lived experience forms the heart of the research, centring the voices of Muslims in the sector. …”

Whose harm is it anyway? Using police data to represent domestic abuse victims’ experiences by Myhill, Andy, Kelly, Liz

“…We also suggest harm indexes and severity scores that combine crime codes and sentencing data are an inadequate and potentially misleading representation of victim-survivors’ lived experiences and wider harms suffered. We caution against the use of harm index data to prioritize intervention in cases of domestic abuse and to assess police performance and the impact of interventions. …”

Well-being in action by Berry, Donald

“…In contrast to the conventional philosophical approach, the study will evaluate these two theories in the context of their suitability for guiding our deliberations about what to do and how best to live. It offers an argument against both theories when they are thus put to work as a basis for making our choices. …”

Metamaterial based ultra-wideband antennas for portable wireless applications by Alibakhshikenari, Mohammad, Naser-Moghadasi, Mohammad, Sadeghzadeh, Ramazan Ali, Virdee, Bal Singh, Limiti, Ernesto

“…Various approaches have been reported to reduce the physical size of RF antennas including using high permittivity substrates, shorting pins, reactive components, and more recently, metamaterials (MTM) based on composite right-/left-handed transmission-lines (CRLH-TLs). MTM exhibit unique electromagnetic response that cannot be found in the nature. …”

Mathematical and computational modelling for the design of pipe bends and compliant systems by Bishop, Steven Richard

“…In particular predictions are sought of any incipient jumps to resonance of the systems which might lead to potentially dangerous loads in the mooring lines or excessive displacements. Throughout the dynamics work stable steady state paths are closely followed and monitored so that any resulting bifurcation, including the possibility of chaotic behaviour, can be analysed with a view to its subsequent prediction.…”

Wideband microstrip quasi-elliptic function bandpass filter with high out-of-band rejection by Virdee, Bal Singh, Riaz, Muhammad, Shukla, Pancham, Onadim, Muhittin, Ouazzane, Karim

“…The design comprises stub-loaded halfwavelength resonators that are electromagnetically coupled to resonant structures that are interdigitally coupled to the input and output feed-lines. Perturbation introduced by the presence of the stub causes the resonators to act as a multimode device. …”
