Security Governance and Sport Mega-Events: Toward an Interdisciplinary Research Agenda (2009)
Journal Article
Giulianotti, R., & Klauser, F. (2010). Security Governance and Sport Mega-Events: Toward an Interdisciplinary Research Agenda. Journal of Sport and Social Issues, 34(1), 49-61. https://doi.org/10.1177/0193723509354042

In the post-9/11 context, security issues have become increasingly central to the hosting of sport mega-events (SMEs). Security budgets for events like the Olympic Games now run into billions of dollars. This article seeks to advance the emerging fie...

Paddy and Biddy no more: an evolutionary analysis of the decline in Irish Catholic forenames among descendants of 19th century Irish migrants to Britain (2009)
Journal Article
Smith, M., & MacRaild, D. (2009). Paddy and Biddy no more: an evolutionary analysis of the decline in Irish Catholic forenames among descendants of 19th century Irish migrants to Britain. Annals of Human Biology, 36(5), 595-608. https://doi.org/10.1080/03014460903117459

Background: Recent research into cultural evolution has suggested that the distribution of many culturally neutral traits, including forenames, can be explained by a model of random copying, analogous to the process of random genetic drift. Aim: We t... Read More about Paddy and Biddy no more: an evolutionary analysis of the decline in Irish Catholic forenames among descendants of 19th century Irish migrants to Britain.

Lattice Boltzmann simulation of free-surface temperature dispersion in shallow water flows. (2009)
Journal Article
Seaid, M., & Thömmes, G. (2009). Lattice Boltzmann simulation of free-surface temperature dispersion in shallow water flows. Advances in applied mathematics and mechanics, 1(3), 415-437

We develop a lattice Boltzmann method for modeling free-surface temperature dispersion in the shallow water flows. The governing equations are derived from the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with assumptions of shallow water flows including b...

Reduced oceanic seismic anisotropy by small-scale convection (2009)
Journal Article
van Hunen, J., & Cadek, O. (2009). Reduced oceanic seismic anisotropy by small-scale convection. Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 284(3-4), 622-629. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2009.05.034

Amplitudes of azimuthal seismic anisotropy below the Pacific plate are observed to decrease with lithospheric age, whereas an increase is expected due to ongoing shearing between the plate and the underlying mantle. We illustrate that the convective... Read More about Reduced oceanic seismic anisotropy by small-scale convection.

Divergence between Aspiration and Realities of Islamic Economics: A Political Economy Approach to Bridging the Divide. (2009)
Journal Article
Zaman, N., & Asutay, M. (2009). Divergence between Aspiration and Realities of Islamic Economics: A Political Economy Approach to Bridging the Divide. International Journal of Economics, Management and Accounting, 17(1), 73-96

Early writings in Islamic economics depicted a grand and, some would say, utopian image of the type of societal development that would result from implementing Islamic social and economic theory. However, despite the emergence of Islamic economics in... Read More about Divergence between Aspiration and Realities of Islamic Economics: A Political Economy Approach to Bridging the Divide..
