    Something about amber: Fictive temperature and glass transition temperature of extremely old glasses from copal to Triassic amber

    No full text
    In previous work we successfully used a stable Dominican amber to investigate the sub-glass transition dynamics of an organic glass with extremely low fictive temperature. The results provided an incentive to seek other stable ambers with lower values of fictive temperature. In the present work, a series of fossil resins from different locations, and ages ranging from approximately 100 years–230 million years, has been investigated using differential scanning calorimetry. The measurement results show the thermal signatures for each fossil sample: copals are unstable, and have lower glass transition temperatures than the amber samples. For the amber samples, there is not a systematic age dependence for the amber's glass transition temperature. Furthermore, even for the same sort of amber, the thermal properties can be different for different samples. The stability of the fossil resins was studied and glass transition temperatures were determined. For the stable samples, fictive temperature was also determined

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Build it and they will come? - A case study of a ‘softer landings’ approach in creating a low-carbon community

    This paper explores an emerging low-carbon construction business model through a case study of a low-carbon community supported by a private Small to Medium Enterprise (SME) in Lincolnshire. The study highlights the developer’s extended aftercare and on-site support that has a focus on engaging residents in behaviour change and low-carbon community building (termed the ‘softer landings' approach ). The research employs a mixed method approach, with multiple sources of data from in-depth interviews, a focus group discussion, and questionnaire surveys, as well as energy consumption data from Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) on four projects over two development sites completed between 2016 and 2019. The findings suggest that extended aftercare and on-site support from the developer could cultivate a self-supporting low-carbon community that promotes peer learning and support, behaviour change, decreases energy consumption and leads to user satisfaction. The research proposes a model where the positive outcomes of the ‘softer landings approach’ could in turn drive the demand-side market for low-carbon dwellings, create further business opportunities for the developer, mitigate capital cost and resources invested in the extended aftercare, and generate business growth. Recommendations for this model to be replicated and upscaled through professional networks, and supported through policy and regulatory frameworks in the UK are presented as a constructive way forward in order to achieve the government’s decarbonisation goals

    Variations on the Author

    Full text link
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
