‘Ceremonious ape!’: creaturely poetics and anthropomorphic acts
Journal Article
Anderton, J. ‘Ceremonious ape!’: creaturely poetics and anthropomorphic acts. Performance Research, 20(2),

Creaturely life partly refers to the nostalgia for a former human status hinged on normative, established forms of signification. In response, creaturely poetics is concerned with ways of composing the accentuated material and categorical vulnerabili...

Placing fashion: art, space, display and the building of luxury fashion markets through retail design
Journal Article
Crewe, L. Placing fashion: art, space, display and the building of luxury fashion markets through retail design. Progress in Human Geography,

This paper explores the performative and affective affordances enshrined in contemporary fashion space. Fashion markets need to be placed in a much more serious conceptual way. Whilst much critical attention has been focused on the geographies of fas... Read More about Placing fashion: art, space, display and the building of luxury fashion markets through retail design.

Research data sharing: developing a stakeholder-driven model for journal policies
Journal Article
Sturges, P., Bamkin, M., Anders, J. H., Hubbard, B., Hussain, A., & Heeley, M. Research data sharing: developing a stakeholder-driven model for journal policies. Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology,

The conclusions of research articles generally depend on bodies of data that cannot be included in the articles themselves. The sharing of this data is important for reasons of both transparency and possible reuse. Science, Technology and Medicine jo...

Geometrical issues in the continuum mechanics of solid crystals
Journal Article
Nicks, R., & Parry, G. P. Geometrical issues in the continuum mechanics of solid crystals. Miskolc Mathematical Notes,

We shall outline geometrical and algebraic ideas which appear to lie at the foundation of the theory of defective crystals that was introduced by Davini [5] in 1986. The focus of the paper will be on the connection between continuous and discrete mod... Read More about Geometrical issues in the continuum mechanics of solid crystals.

Effects of SKF-83566 and haloperidol on performance on progressive ratio schedules maintained by sucrose and corn oil reinforcement: quantitative analysis using a new model derived from the Mathematical Principles of Reinforcement (MPR)
Journal Article
Olarte-Sánchez, C., Valencia-Torres, L., Cassaday, H. J., Bradshaw, C., & Szabadi, E. Effects of SKF-83566 and haloperidol on performance on progressive ratio schedules maintained by sucrose and corn oil reinforcement: quantitative analysis using a new model derived from the Mathematical Principles of Reinforcement (MPR). Psychopharmacology, 230(4), https://doi.org/10.1007/s00213-013-3189-3

Rationale Mathematical models can assist the interpretation of the effects of interventions on schedule-controlled behaviour and help to differentiate between processes that may be confounded in traditional performance measures such as response rate...

An indefensible frontier: the Claustra Alpium Iuliarum
Journal Article
Poulter, A. G. An indefensible frontier: the Claustra Alpium Iuliarum. Jahreshefte des Österreichischen Archäologischen Instituts in Wien, 81,

It has been long maintained that the system of barrier walls and fortlets in the Julian Alps dates to the early 4th century and that it was a fortification line used to defend Italy during times of civil war. Reviewing the historical, archaeological... Read More about An indefensible frontier: the Claustra Alpium Iuliarum.

Re-anchorage of a ruptured tendon in bonded post-tensioned concrete beams: model validation
Journal Article
Abdelatif, A. O., Owen, J. S., & Hussein, M. F. Re-anchorage of a ruptured tendon in bonded post-tensioned concrete beams: model validation. Key Engineering Materials, 569, https://doi.org/10.4028/www.scientific.net/KEM.569-570.302

Many post-tensioned concrete bridges have been reported to have ruptured tendons due to corrosion [1] and the assessment of their residual structural capacity has to account for the possibility of re-anchorage of failed tendons. This paper presents a... Read More about Re-anchorage of a ruptured tendon in bonded post-tensioned concrete beams: model validation.

Use of transgenic GFP reporter strains of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans to investigate the patterns of stress responses induced by pesticides and by organic extracts from agricultural soils
Journal Article
Anbalagan, C., Lafayette, I., Antoniou-Kourounioti, M., Gutierrez, C., Rodriguez Martin, J., Chowdhuri, D. K., & de Pomerai, D. I. Use of transgenic GFP reporter strains of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans to investigate the patterns of stress responses induced by pesticides and by organic extracts from agricultural soils. Ecotoxicology, 22(1), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10646-012-1004-2

As a free-living nematode, C. elegans is exposed to various pesticides used in agriculture, as well as to persistent organic residues which may contaminate the soil for long periods. Following on from our previous study of metal effects on 24 GFP-re...

Kernels for products of L-functions
Journal Article
Diamantis, N., & O'Sullivan, C. Kernels for products of L-functions. Algebra and Number Theory, 7(8), https://doi.org/10.2140/ant.2013.7.1883

The Rankin-Cohen bracket of two Eisenstein series provides a kernel yielding products of the periods of Hecke eigenforms at critical values. Extending this idea leads to a new type of Eisenstein series built with a double sum. We develop the properti... Read More about Kernels for products of L-functions.

Analysis of the Sam50 translocase of excavate organisms supports evolution of divergent organelles from a common endosymbiotic event
Journal Article
Kay, C. J., Lawler, K., & Kerr, I. D. Analysis of the Sam50 translocase of excavate organisms supports evolution of divergent organelles from a common endosymbiotic event. Bioscience Reports, 33(6), Article e00084. https://doi.org/10.1042/BSR20130049

As free-living organisms the ancestors of mitochondria and plastids encoded complete genomes, proteomes and metabolomes. As these symbionts became organelles all these aspects were reduced – genomes have degenerated with the host nucleus now encoding...

Phase-amplitude descriptions of neural oscillator models
Journal Article

Phase oscillators are a common starting point for the reduced description of many single neuron models that exhibit a strongly attracting limit cycle. The framework for analysing such models in response to weak perturbations is now particularly well... Read More about Phase-amplitude descriptions of neural oscillator models.

The colour of risk: an exploration of the IPCC's 'burning embers' diagram
Journal Article
Mahony, M., & Hulme, M. The colour of risk: an exploration of the IPCC's 'burning embers' diagram. https://doi.org/10.4245/sponge.v6i1.16075

This article tracks the historical emergence of a new visual convention in the representation of the risks associated with climate change. The “reasons for concern” or “burning embers” diagram has become a prominent visual element of the climate chan...
