Racism has been identified as an important determinant of health but few studies have explored associations between racism and outcomes for Australian Aboriginal young people in urban areas. Cross sectional data from participants aged 12-26 years Wave 1 the Victorian Health Service's Young People's Project were included hierarchical logistic regression models. Overall mental health, depression general all considered with self-reported exposure, adjusting a range relevant confounders. was...
Real-time thermal management of electrical machines relies on sufficiently accurate indicators internal temperature. One indicator temperature in a permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is the stator winding resistance. Detection PMSM resistance literature has been made with relatively high resistances, where resistive voltage vector significant under load. This paper describes two techniques, which can be applied to detect resistance, through "angle" and "magnitude" current injection....
It is important for researchers to understand the motivations and decision-making processes of participants who take part in their research. This enables robust informed consent promotes research that meets needs expectations community. particularly vital when working with Indigenous communities, where there a history exploitative practices. In this paper, we examine accounts Australian non-Indigenous terms how why they agree A qualitative approach was employed undertake individual...
Interest has grown in the methods that trade unions can use to organise and represent substantial proportion of workforce engaged ‘contingent work’. This article examines union representation self‐employed freelances UK. Empirical material is presented from case studies media entertainment unions, with their long history representing freelances, more recently established freelance tour guides, interpreters translators. The analysis indicates there a distinctive form unionism UK which...
The paper measures the effects of workplace partnership and selected high performance work practices on four different dimensions employee experience. Whilst partnership– systems nexus seems to have little impact employees’ job satisfaction or sense attachment, it does, however, a negative both stress evaluations union performance. analysis thus questions common assumptions about inevitability ‘mutual gain’ necessity employer/union partnership.
This article reports on research conducted at General Motors UK and Poland, BMW-UK VW-Motor Poland. The development of a range managerial practices the workplace, often described as lean production techniques, is discussed. focus impact latter employees’ quality work-life. While advocates lean, so-called leanistas, argue that ‘right’ management cadre will allow positive effects to prevail, evidence confirming this assumption remains limited. In contrast ‘lean ideology’, findings here...
DC-DC power converters such as buck are susceptible to degradation and failure due operating under conditions of electrical stress variable sources in conversion applications, electric vehicles renewable energy. Some key components electrolytic capacitors degrade over time evaporation the electrolyte. In this paper, a model-observer based scheme is proposed monitor states Buck estimate their component parameters, capacitance inductance. First, diagnosis observer proposed, generated residual...
Three-dimensional city models are increasingly being used for analyses and simulations. To enable such applications, it is necessary to standardise semantically richer and, in some cases, connect the with external data sources. In this study, we describe development of a new Swedish specification 3D models, denoted as 3CIM, which joint effort between three largest cities Sweden—Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö. Technically, 3CIM an extension OGC standard CityGML 2.0, implemented application...
Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a common complication of haemodialysis that associated with adverse patient outcomes. We have developed new non-invasive approach to continuously estimate systolic blood pressure (SBP) in real time during using wave sensors the extracorporeal circuit. sought compare performance our continuous real-time SBP estimator against brachial cuff measurements. Single-centre, observational study conducted 21 participants receiving functioning arteriovenous fistula,...
The paper examines the impact of lean production on indicators quality life at work in automotive industry and finds that it varies across companies to a lesser extent between countries. explains this by arguing seeks impose new employment standards. This is contested process where management's capacity shift standards labour's ability protect its interests vary workplaces.
Among all airport operations, aircraft ground movement plays a key role in improving overall capacity as it links other operations. Moreover, ever-increasing air traffic, rising costs, and tighter environmental targets create pressure to minimize fuel burn on the ground. However, current routing functions envisioned Advanced Surface Movement, Guidance Control Systems almost exclusively consider most time-efficient solution apply conservative separation ensure conflict-free surface movement,...
This paper draws upon earlier work, which developed a multiobjective speed profile generation framework for unimpeded taxiing aircraft. Here, we deal with how to seamlessly integrate such efficient profiles into holistic decision-making framework. The availability of set nondominated each taxiway segment, respect conflicting objectives, has the potential significantly impact airport ground movement research. More specifically, routing and scheduling function that was previously based on...
Relationships of trust between research participants and researchers are often considered paramount to successful research; however, we know little about participants' perspectives. We examined whom trusted when taking part in research. Using a qualitative approach, interviewed 36 participants, including eight Indigenous participants. Thematic analysis was used analyze the data. This article focuses on findings related non-Indigenous In contrast placed their institutions because systems...
Supposedly emblematic of digital capitalism, the rise gig economy is frequently taken as a cypher for developing deindustrialisation western societies. It tempting to interpret shift manufacturing jobs global south and their replacement with service sector one-way street, leading demise decent work characterised by precarity, low pay, skill non-unionised workforce. However, reality inevitably more complex. In first place, pessimism may be attributed rose-tinted view experience former...
This article provides case study analysis of the impact high performance work practices and workplace partnership on skilled workers in UK's aerospace industry. In contrast to assumptions that such increase empowerment participation we find evidence a democratic deficit decision‐making deterioration quality working life.
Recent commentators on the Labour Process Debate have addressed relationship between individualism, collectivism and broader changes in management strategies through a focus upon absence of labour demise collectivism. In this critical response authors argue that almost invariably, while some guise is rediscovered, occurs at expense
This article questions the view of leading advocates lean production and high-performance work practices that these increase employee influence. It examines workers’ experiences in automobile aerospace sectors Italy UK. Despite national differences industrial relations cultural between firms, a significant democratic deficit existed all cases.
There has been increasing attention over the last decade on issue of indigenous youth suicide. A number studies have documented high prevalence suicide behavior and mortality in Australia internationally. However, no focused documenting correlates for Australia.
