Novel non-invasive techniques for measurement of glomerular dysfunction and structural damage in experimental glomerulopathy mice
No full textFitting the bill? (Dis)embodied disclosure of sexual identities in the workplace
No full textThe disclosure of lesbian, gay or bisexual identity is generally presented as a conscious act of leaving heterosexuality (Ragins, 2004). Such interpretation fails to take into account the dynamic processes involved in constructing non-heterosexual identities and to what degree such identities are embodied or disembodied. Supported by interview data among lesbian and gay employees in six British workplaces, this article explores how non-heterosexual identities become known in organisational settings by arguing that lesbians and gay men continue to collide with social expectations and stereotypical ideas of how sexual identities should be “worn” and performed. These both shape colleagues’ assumptions about their non-heterosexual identities and can expose lesbians and gay men to negative behaviour at work in highly gendered ways
Application of URANS turbulence closure models to complex flows subjected to electromagnetic and other body forces
No full textThis paper considers the application of the Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) approach to two types of electromagnetically influenced turbulent flows. The first is a fully-developed 2D channel flow with a magnetic field imposed in either the wall-normal direction (Hartmann Flow), or in the streamwise direction. The second is that of Rayleigh-Benard convection with a vertical magnetic field imposed. The turbulence is represented by a low-Re k-epsilon model which is tested with and without electromagnetic modifcations proposed by Kenjeres and Hanjalic (2000). The results show tha modifications lead to a dramatic reorganisation of the coherent structures in Rayleigh-Benard convection as the magnetic field strength is increased, but over-predict the damping of the turbulent shear stress in a simple channel flow
