Inspirational Story, Robin Hadley
No full textThis week we have a slightly different inspirational story, different because it’s a man’s story. It’s sad that so few men are willing to speak out, and today I’m pleased to share Robin Hadley’s story.
Robin was probably the first childless man in the UK to speak out and he did this on the back of writing a PhD on men and childlessness. We’ve spoken a few times on skype and Robin was part of this groundbreaking conversation, the first of men and women discussing childlessness. I’m looking forward to meeting him face to face at the Conference this weekend.
I love the fact that Robin is ‘in a place he never thought he would be’ and I applaud his advice to Be kind to yourself wherever you are.’ great advice indeed

The un-held hand - Robin Hadley on Father's Day
No full textIt is that time of year when strategies deployed at Christmas, New Year and sundry other ‘national family centred event days’ are taken down from the loft, dusted off and made ready: Father’s Day to my mind, has followed the marketization of Mother’s Day.
Undoubtedly, next Monday’s news reports will give estimations of how many millions of pounds were spent on Father’s Day and how much more was spent on Mother's Day. It would appear that in order to acknowledge biological or social fatherhood a card, a present, and a meal specially priced (and specially defrosted and reheated) is now mandatory. Wherever you go displays inviting you to acknowledge your father or the father of your children abound.
If you are one of the 25%* of men in the UK who are not fathers then Father’s Day can be a challenge. Of those 25% some will be delaying fatherhood because of career, fate, finance, housing, relationship and ‘the-right-time’ factors. Others would have decided they do not want to be a father. For those of us who wanted (or want) to be a Dad then Father’s Day is special in a different way

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe 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

The FENET plate/shell fabrication procedural benchmark and 'round robin' exercise
No full textPlate and shell construction is common across many industrial sectors and covers components and structures that range from the relatively unimportant to safety-critical. The details used in plate/shell structures, in any industry sector, are no doubt a reflection of tradition, as well as market forces and regulation. As a result, for example, full penetration butt-welds will be more common in the nuclear industry, while fillet weld details will be more common in many 'every-day' fabricated structures, ranging from lamp posts to 'bin' lorries. As finite element technology has moved from the so-called 'right-first-time' sectors into general industry, today's powerful analysis and simulation technology is being adopted by more and more organisations, including SMEs, which generally do not have an 'analysis tradition'. In addition, coverage of the assumptions inherent in shell theory generally falls into the postgraduate educational domain. The staffing challenges facing SMEs in particular in this area are therefore significant. Furthermore, it is also argued that many of the details commonly found in fabricated plate/shell structures are often not subjected to widely recognised and commonly accepted cross-industry analysis procedures. The procedural benchmarks and 'round-robin' exercise, detailed herein, were seen as an excellent opportunity to examine such practice and to observe resulting educational and quality assurance related issues

No full textIn Care Without Pathology: How Trans- Health Activists Are Changing Medicine, Christoph Hanssmann explores the evolution of trans therapeutics and health activism through ethnographic fieldwork conducted in New York City and Buenos Aires. Demonstrating how grassroots movements are disrupting social and biomedical power structures, the book is an essential contribution to research on depathologisation efforts in trans care, writes Robin Skyer
