Language Problems and ADHD Symptoms
Symptoms of inattention and hyperactivity frequently co-occur with language difficulties in both clinical and community samples. We explore the specificity and strength of these associations in a heterogeneous sample of 254...

Mapping differential responses to cognitive training using machine learning.
We used two simple unsupervised machine learning techniques to identify differential trajectories of change in children who undergo intensive working memory (WM) training. We used self-organizing maps (SOMs)-a type of simple...

Characterization of De Novo Di-Iron Metalloproteins
Stephanie Hawkins
Jan 01, 0001
The unique structure-function relationship of proteins has made de novo metalloprotein models a valuable tool in obtaining a deeper understanding of these essential biological molecules. To study the impact of active site...

Reducing the carbon emissions of building construction using thin-shell concrete floors
Will Hawkins
Jun 01, 2022
Steel and concrete are consumed in vast quantities as the global population continues to grow, develop and urbanise. Both these materials are carbon-intensive to produce, and construction therefore represents one of the hardest...

An analytical failure envelope for the design of textile reinforced concrete shells
Shells have the potential to considerably reduce material consumption in buildings due to their high structural efficiency compared to equivalent structures acting in bending. Textile reinforced concrete (TRC) is a promising...

Meeting in the Middle
As institutions of higher education began their full returns to campus in Fall 2021, questions arose about continuing the flexible student support services that emerged during the pandemic, the expectations students might have...
Influence of Turn-Taking in Musical and Spoken Activities on Empathy and Self-Esteem of Socially Vulnerable Young Teenagers.
This study describes a preliminary test of the hypothesis that, when people engage in musical and linguistic activities designed to enhance the interactive, turn-taking properties of typical conversation, they benefit in ways...

Writing Self-Efficacy and Performance Among Students in an Online Doctoral Program
Writing an argument is an essential skill for doctoral students in achieving academic and occupational success. Writing an argument effectively requires the ability to use correct writing mechanics, but doctoral students may...
A design methodology to reduce the embodied carbon of concrete buildings using thin-shell floors

This paper explores the potential of thin concrete shells as low-carbon alternatives to floor slabs and beams, which typically make up the majority of structural material in multi-storey buildings. A simple and practical...

Optimising the embodied carbon of laterally loaded piles using a genetic algorithm and finite element simulation
With the need to cut embodied carbon from the construction industry, there has been a growing interest in optimising the design of different structural elements. This paper, for the first time, minimises the embodied carbon of...

Embodied carbon optimisation of concrete pile foundations and comparison of the performance of different pile geometries
Concrete production and construction are responsible for a considerable share of the total carbon emissions annually. With the emerging need to cut carbon emissions from the construction sector, there has been a big interest in...
