Winters without women: social change, split households and gendered labour in rural Mongolia by Ahearn-Ligham, A

“…In this article, I use absence as a lens to explore social change and masculinity in rural Mongolia, with a focus on household splitting during winter months. Since the breakdown in state-sponsored dormitory systems, many mobile pastoralists split their households to accommodate children during the school year. …”

Mine the gap: Bitcoin and the maintenance of trustlessness by Vidan, G, Lehdonvirta, V

“…In three cases, which occurred between 2013 and 2015, we examine this system at moments of breakdown. In contrast to the discourse, we find that power is concentrated to critical sites and individuals who manage the system through ad hoc negotiations, and who users must therefore implicitly trust—a contrast we call Bitcoin’s “promissory gap.” …”

Accuracy Investigations of Dynamic Characteristic Predictions of Tip Leakage Flow Using Detached Eddy Simulation by Shiyan Lin, Ruiyu Li, Limin Gao, Ning Ge

“…With the main fluctuation structures obtained by the SPOD method, it is concluded that the DES method is unable to resolve the Kelvin–Helmholtz instability at the initial position of the leakage, which leads to the generation of the secondary leakage vortex upstream of the leakage and the breakdown of the induced vortex, two critical flow structures, being incorrectly estimated. …”

Review of Recent Progress on Vertical GaN-Based PN Diodes by Taofei Pu, Usman Younis, Hsien-Chin Chiu, Ke Xu, Hao-Chung Kuo, Xinke Liu

“…Abstract As a representative wide bandgap semiconductor material, gallium nitride (GaN) has attracted increasing attention because of its superior material properties (e.g., high electron mobility, high electron saturation velocity, and critical electric field). Vertical GaN devices have been investigated, are regarded as one of the most promising candidates for power electronics application, and are characterized by the capacity for high voltage, high current, and high breakdown voltage. …”
