In the cold-chamber high-pressure die casting (CC-HPDC) process for light alloys, strong shear stress generated by the fast-flowing melt through narrow runners breaks externally solidified crystals (ESCs). Two runner configurations were applied in the CC-HPDC process of aluminum alloy to address&...

Solid/liquid (S/L) interface energy (𝛾_sl) and its anisotropy (φ) play a critical role in the understanding of nearly every single phenomenon that occurs during solidification of metals, such as nucleation, morphological instability and dendrite growth. However, due to ...

Loneliness in adolescence is a promising intervention target because of the high prevalence of loneliness at this developmental stage, the demonstrable associations with mental illness, and potential to prevent the onset of mental disorder. However, the acceptability of loneliness interventions t...

Metals are vital to human society and have widespread uses across a broad spectrum of industries including but not limited to packaging, transport and construction applications. They are mainly used in load-bearing structural components. Nonetheless, they possess finite operational lifetime attri...

The Iranian Revolution of 1979 caused great changes in the status of women in Iran. Many of these changes, together with the war with Iraq, resulted in life being intolerable for many women, especially those who were highly educated, to such an extent that they...

Modelling fluid dynamics with machine learning (ML) has advanced rapidly, yet most data driven approaches remain opaque because they rely on complex architectures to capture nonlinear flow behaviour. This lack of interpretability limits their reliability and hinders understanding of when and ...

There are growing calls for young adults (18- to 25-year-olds) in the criminal justice system to be treated as a distinct group and for service responses more attuned to this developmental life-course phase. This article draws on an evaluation of a specialist young adult proba...

This conceptual paper extends the debate about sustainability and sport management by transcending the dominant natural environmental perspective and offering a systems approach. Addresses the question, ‘Is sustainability in sport management possible?’ The nature of sustainability in sport management ...

Background: The Grenfell Tower fire, London, in 2017 caused 72 deaths, and mass evacuations. This evaluative case study examines the disaster response, particularly the mental health and wellbeing programme delivered by statutory services, notably the NHS and local government (RBKC). ...
