Development of the large-tonnage pressure-type prestressed anchor cable with BFRP for geotechnical engineering and its mechanical properties
(Wiley/Hindawi, 2022)
Prestressed anchor cable is widely used in geotechnical engineering to control the displacement or landslide of an unstable slope.
However, the traditional cable anchor is made of steel material, which is easy to get rust ...
Oat husk ashes as supplementary cementitious material
(Technological University of the Shannon Midlands Midwest, 2022)
Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) are recognized and utilized to minimize cement use; however, several waste sources now employed for partial cement replacement are under threat for changes in industrial production ...

Epistemological treatment of design in technology education
(Springer, 2022-10-18)
Design as a construct has multiple meanings depending on context, function, and agenda. This paper proposes to set out functions of design as it manifests in the context of technological activity for the purposes of ...
Exploring the potential key role of microbial enzymes from plastic polluted sites in the biodegradation of polyhydroxybutyrate films
(Technological University of the Shannon Midlands Midwest, 2022)
Engineering students' perceptions of the role of work industry-related activities on their motivation for studying and learning in higher education
(Taylor & Francis, 2022-06-29)
A number of key graduate outcomes related to industry-based
interventions and work-industry-related activities (WIA’s) are specified
by the Swedish Higher Education Ordinance for all Engineering Degree
Programmes. A ...
A review of the valid methodological use of adaptive comparative judgement in technology education research
(Frontiers Media, 2022-03-03)
There is a continuing rise in studies examining the impact that adaptive comparative judgment (ACJ) can have on practice in technology education. This appears to stem from ACJ being seen to offer a solution to the difficulties ...
Using teachers' judgments of quality to establish performance standards in technology education across schools, communities, and nations
(Frontiers, 2022-03-18)
The establishment and maintenance of national examination standards remains a serious issue for teachers and learners, whilst the levers of control remain firmly in the hands of Awarding Bodies and supervising politicians. ...
The importance of spatial ability within technology education
(Springer, 2022-01-01)
Understanding the factors that impact learners with respect to their academic achievement is critical for enhancing educational provision, and the nature of these factors can vary widely. They could be, for example, ...
NIR-based intelligent sensing of product yield stress for high-value bioresorbable polymer processing
(MDPI, 2022-04-07)
PLA (polylactide) is a bioresorbable polymer used in implantable medical and drug
delivery devices. Like other bioresorbable polymers, PLA needs to be processed carefully to avoid
degradation. In this work we combine ...
