Securitizing instability: The US military and full spectrum operations
(SAGE Publications, 2015-01-01)This paper examines the recent broadening of the US military’s overseas mission into what it calls ‘full spectrum operations’ and critiques how it is being enabled by what I term ‘full spectrum law’. The paper explores the ... -
Sediment mobility modelling and hydrodynamic properties of maerl
(2016-11-11)Sediment mobility modelling is a useful tool for scientifically robust marine spatial planning and characterisation of the benthic disturbance regime. As a prerequisite to modelling sediment transport of free living coralline ... -
Seeking Gender Justice in Post-Conflict Transitions: Towards a Transformative Women's Human Rights Approach
(Cambridge University Press, 2007)This article critically examines the prospects for achieving a comprehensive vision of gender justice in post-conflict transitional contexts. It is divided into three main sections. The first reviews the gendered limits ... -

Seismic Design of Concentrically Braced Steel Frames
(2012-03-01)The aim of this project is to develop a robust numerical model that accurately replicates the behaviour of CBFs during earthquakes. This numerical model is then used to validate a codified performance based design approach ... -
Seismic Rayleigh waves on an exponentially graded, orthotropic half-space
(The Royal Society, 2007)Efforts at modelling the propagation of seismic waves in half-spaces with continuously varying properties have mostly been focused on shear-horizontal waves. Here, a sagittally polarized (Rayleigh type) wave travels along ... -
Selecting Economic Immigrants: A Statistical Approach
(National University of Ireland, Galway, 2009-09)There is growing international interest in a Canadian-style points system for selecting economic immigrants. Although existing points systems are influenced by the human capital literature, the findings have traditionally ... -
Selection shapes synonymous stop codon use in mammals
(Springer (part of Springer Nature), 2020-07-02)Phylogenetic models of the evolution of protein-coding sequences can provide insights into the selection pressures that have shaped them. In the application of these models synonymous nucleotide substitutions, which do not ... -
Selection, collection and analysis as sources of evidence in case study research
(RCN Publishing Ltd., 2017-03-22)Background Case study research is a valuable way to explore and describe nursing phenomena in their natural contexts. Multiple sources of evidence are critical in this approach. It is imperative that the strategies for ... -
