Little research examining anti-atheist prejudice reduction interventions has been replicated. The current manuscript aimed to replicate and extend previous anti-atheist prejudice research We proposed three conceptual replications of Will Gervais’ “Finding the faithless” (Study 3). Participants in all three...

Control of Fe-containing intermetallic size and morphology is often achieved using external physical fields, but chemical modification via metallic additions offers a faster, more cost-effective alternative without requiring production-line changes. This work developed a screening method for such additions...

This study addresses a research gap in upcycling complex organic-mineral residues by investigating the thermal reactivation of sanding dust (SD) generated during the production of wood-wool cement panels. Its novelty lies in establishing a low-temperature pathway that recovers hydraulic capacity ...

The construction industry is one of the largest industrial sectors, characterized by resource intensity, carbon emissions, and waste generation. The increasing demand for new housing and renovations for older buildings, alongside the imperative for energy-efficient buildings, place significant pressure...

In the context of the Internet of Things (IoT), the combined use of edge computing and blockchain technology is rapidly expanding. This approach improves performance, energy efficiency, storage management, and most importantly, security and privacy within IoT environments. IoT devices are al...

Importance: Progress in vestibular implantation offers hope for patients with bilateral vestibulopathy. However, surgically opening the semicircular canals risks breaching the membranous labyrinth, which may induce sensorineural hearing loss. A robotic drill sensing force and torque might prevent&#x...

Third Sector Sports Organisations (TSSOs) play an increasingly important role in England’s sport and physical activity landscape, particularly in delivering community-based programmes that contribute to a range of social outcomes. Operating within a context of prolonged austerity, these organisations ...

We study how bots contribute to open-source discussions in the Ethereum ecosystem and whether they influence developers’ emotional tone. Our dataset covers 36,875 accounts across ten repositories with 105 validated bots (0.28%). Human participation follows a U-shaped pattern, while bots engage&#x...

Accurate modelling of interference and coverage in optical wireless communication (OWC) systems remains challenging due to the limitations of conventional approaches, which typically rely on infinite-network assumptions or simplified disc-shaped cell models. In practical deployments, OWC networks are finit...
