Rule Britannia: Brexit and the end of empire by Dorling, D, Tomlinson, S

“…In this wide-ranging and thoughtful analysis, now fully updated to cover the fallout from Brexit and the impact of coronavirus, Dorling and Tomlinson argue that if Britain can reconcile itself to its new place on the world stage, a new identity can be born from the ashes. <i>Rule Britannia</i> is a powerful call to leave behind the jingoistic ignorance of the past and build a fairer Britain, eradicating the inequality that blights our society and embracing our true strengths.…”

Development of a multi-rotor VTOL UAV : numerical study of rotor-wake induced interference drag on a VTOL UAV by Lim, Jarad Jian An

“…Methods for determining the inputs to these MA models are validated, and the MA model is used on a half-body Electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft. The effect of rotor wake on aerodynamic drag in cruise flight and longitudinal forces in hover flight is numerically evaluated, and recommendations are made towards optimising the design of the aircraft.…”

Louise Moillon by Stevenson, Lesley

“…The life and career of Louise Moillon (1609/10-1696) offers a fascinating case study of a supremely talented artist whose posthumous reputation has been mired in invisibility. Born and raised in Paris, Moillon was the sole woman in a circle of Calvinist Protestant émigrés who brought their tradition of still-life painting with them from Flanders. …”

Understanding trends in social fluidity in western europe: class structural change and the OED triangle by Goldthorpe, J, Bukodi, E

“…In further evaluating these theories, we report empirical analyses of relations within the origins-education-destinations (OED) triangle, drawing on data for individuals born 1923-77 in 17 European societies. In contrast with earlier research, we treat education in relative terms. …”

First-principles study of the lattice dynamics of Sb2S3 by Liu, Yun, Eddie Chua, Kun Ting, Sum, Tze Chien, Gan, Chee Kwan

“…We present a lattice dynamics study of orthorhombic antimony sulphide (Sb2S3) obtained using density-functional calculations in conjunction with the supercell force-constant method. The effect of Born effective charges is taken into account using a mixed-space approach, resulting in the splitting of longitudinal and transverse optical (LO-TO) phonon branches near the zone center. …”

Structural and electronic features enabling delocalized charge-carriers in CuSbSe 2 by Fu, Y, Lohan, H, Righetto, M, Huang, Y, Kavanagh, SR, Cho, C, Zelewski, SJ, Woo, YW, Demetriou, H, McLachlan, MA, Heutz, S, Piot, BA, Scanlon, DO, Rao, A, Herz, LM, Walsh, A, Hoye, RLZ

“…Using a combination of theory and experiment, the critical enabling factors are found to be: 1) having a layered structure, which allows distortions to the unit cell during the propagation of an acoustic wave to be relaxed in the interlayer gaps, with minimal changes in bond length, thus limiting deformation potentials; 2) favourable quasi-bonding interactions across the interlayer gap giving rise to higher electronic dimensionality; 3) Born effective charges not being anomalously high, which, combined with the small bandgap (≤1.2 eV), result in a low ionic contribution to the dielectric constant compared to the electronic contribution, thus reducing the strength of Fröhlich coupling. …”

Evidence from Finland and Sweden on the relationship between early-life diseases and lifetime childlessness in men and women by Liu, A, Akimova, ET, Ding, X, Jukarainen, S, Vartiainen, P, Kiiskinen, T, Koskelainen, S, Havulinna, AS, Gissler, M, Lombardi, S, Fall, T, Mills, MC, Ganna, A

Active Learning Strategies in Engineering Science: The Right Way to Teach Physics for Management Students (S/O 13010) by Nordin, Norani, Mohammed Kamaruddeen, Ahmed, Yekinni Kolawole, Sanusi

“…Physics is always perceived by students as a difficult, dull, and abstract subject with little connection to the real world, despite the fact that technologies are born from the physics of our daily lives. The traditional way of teaching physics and technology is based on teacher-centred of learning, where the teacher talks about a given theory and students are supposed to solve several problems based on this theory. …”
