High-resolution digital rock images provide the foundation for pore-scale reservoir characterization, seepage simulation, and multi-scale flow analysis. However, the inherent trade-off between field of view and spatial resolution in micro-computed tomography limits the acquisition of high-resolution images over...

The purpose of the document is to provide commissioners, service providers and individuals with a guide to the minimum standards of care that participants attending pulmonary rehabilitation should expect, together with measures of good practice.

Introduction: Residual apnoea hypopnoea index (AHI) derived from positive airway pressure (PAP) device downloads is frequently used to assess treatment effectiveness in obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). However, the accuracy of device reported AHI in real‑world settings remains uncertain. This&#x...

This paper examines how efficiently individuals and societies transform economic and social resources into subjective well-being. We propose an ordered probit stochastic frontier model that explicitly accounts for the ordinal nature of life satisfaction data while jointly estimating well-being shortfa...

This report summarises evidence on how placing people at the heart of climate adaptation policy and action can improve outcomes.

This study examines the relationship between country-level digital access and vulnerability to modern slavery, focussing on countries committed to achieving United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 8.7. The study draws on information poverty theory to frame analysis of the role of d...

This paper argues that gasoline price fluctuations affect inflation through changes in consumer expectations about future energy costs. More precisely, we use data from the US Michigan Survey of Consumers and estimate a Structural VAR model to show that long-run gasoline price expectati...

This study explored the behavioural intention of university students in Malaysia to use multisensory digital learning applications encompassing vision, audition, kinaesthesis, olfaction, gustation and thermoception. Two hypotheses were tested: (1) technology anxiety has a direct and negative effect on ...

Rising urbanisation and global population growth are projected to nearly double municipal solid waste (MSW) generation by 2050. Energy-from-waste (EfW) technologies recover energy from mixed waste streams, generating electricity and heat. However, for every tonne of MSW incinerated, 0.7–1.7 tonnes...
