A Social Equity Analysis of Swedish and Scottish National Transport Policy

The topic of social equity in transport planning has been dealt with in particular by authors such as Martens (2012) and Martens and Golob (2012) using a social justice based approach. However, such an approach, whilst valuable and analytically rigorous (based as it is on accessibility modelling), does not consider a wide range of possible other social impacts of transport, as set out in a framewoThe topic of social equity in transport planning has been dealt with in particular by authors such as Martens (2012) and Martens and Golob (2012) using a social justice based approach.

Parametrization of the temperature dependence of laminar burning velocity for methane and ethane flames

The power exponent α in the temperature dependence of laminar burning velocity [Formula presented]=[Formula presented]α is usually considered an empirical parameter extracted from measurements performed at different temperatures. In this paper an analytical derivation of α is proposed, calculating the power exponent from the overall activation energy as: αTu 0→Tu =[Formula presented]·X+x. This rel

Experimental and kinetic modeling study of para-xylene chemistry in laminar premixed flames

The chemistry of para-xylene oxidation in laminar premixed flames has been analyzed using new experimental data on flame propagation at atmospheric pressure and flame structure of low-pressure stoichiometric flame. Atmospheric pressure laminar burning velocities of para-xylene + air flames were determined using the heat flux method at initial temperatures of 328 and 353 K over the equivalence rati

Citizen engagement in climate adaptation surveyed : The role of values, worldviews, gender and place

Local governments’ limited mandate and capacity to adequately deal with increasing climate risk and impacts means that citizen engagement is becoming increasingly important for adapting to hazards such as floods and storms. Stronger collaborative approaches are urgently needed. At the same time, there is little research and hardly any empirical evidence on what inspires adaptation engagement in di

Explaining gender-typed educational choice in adolescence : The role of social identity, self-concept, goals, grades, and interests

In most industrialized countries, there are substantial gender differences in field of study, resulting in gender segregated labor markets. The present research (N = 457, M age = 14.98) investigated a diverse range of predictors of Swedish adolescents’ choice of preparatory (STEM; humanistic) and terminal (e.g., electrician; health care) programs. The results revealed that social identity related
