A Cultural analysis of resistances to digital poetries
… element which aims to generate a typology of resistances to digital poetries. Through both an interview process and practice-asresearch, the research generates a number of texts to be analysed through closereading and comparative textual analysis. The project considers ‘digital poetries’ in …

Greening the EU : Power practices, resistances and agenda setting
Between 1970 and 1995, well over 200 directives dealing with environmental problems have been adopted by the European Community. The ambition in this study has been to understand the process whereby environmental concerns have been brought up on the Community agenda and how that agenda has …

Videogame culture as transnational media: one neoliberalism, many resistances
This dissertation analyzes two best-selling videogames, Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear Solid 4 (2008) and Square Enix' Final Fantasy 12 (2006), as sites of contestation between commercial media corporations on the one hand, and communities of artists, consumers and non-commercial digital users on the …

A study on the resistances to oxygen transport in the microcirculation
A study on the resistances to oxygen transport in the microcirculation has been conducted. In Part I of this work, the oxygen permeability of cultured bovine aortic and human umbilical vein endothelial cell monolayers was measured directly in vitro. The monolayers were cultured on silicone rubber …

Modeling of Electronic and Ionic Transport Resistances Within Lithium-Ion Battery Cathodes
… materials. The increased understanding of cell resistances will enable improved design of cells for high-power applications, such as hybrid and plug-in-hybrid electric vehicles. It was found electronic and liquid-phase ionic transport resistances are strongly coupled to particle conductivity, …

From the simple to the complex: an examination of different herbicide resistances
… of both target-site- and non-target-based resistances to provide beneficial insights into resistance evolution, adaptation dynamics and management practices. Chapter 2 discusses research conducted to determine if a Tennessee glyphosate-resistant (TennGR) goosegrass population had …

Collaborations and Resistances Between Writing and Photography in Late Twentieth-Century France
Roland Barthes, Geoffrey Batchen, Walter Benjamin, Jacques Derrida, Gilles Deleuze, Stuart Hall, W. J. T. Mitchell, and Susan Sontag are among the critics who provide useful concepts and theories as a foundation from which to explore encounters between texts and photographs.

Geomagnetically induced current sensitivity to assumed substation grounding resistances in the power system
… because it depends on substation grounding resistances, which 1) depend more on the local soil and earth conditions than the construction of the substations themselves and 2) can vary by more than an order of magnitude, from 0.05 to 1.5 ohms. Substation grounding resistances are not …

Ontologies and knowledges of autonomous resistances in Barcelona: An ethnographic analysis of Can Batlló
… whether and, to which extent, autonomous resistances knowledges constructed on the ground challenge the academic interpretations of those movements. For this reason, the first part of this dissertation focuses on unravelling how traditional ontologies have been built and underpin …

Agriculture Without Farmers? Constructions of and Resistances to Whiteness in Two Midwestern Agricultural Education Classrooms
Drawing on two semesters of qualitative observation, interviews, and discourse analysis in the field, I wrestle with the contradictory tension between what is happening and what might be happening in Ag Ed classrooms in the “US” (Gilmore, 2022; Giroux, 1983). Heeding an essential problematic …

The effects of heat acclimation on physiological responses to sprint interval training at various pedal resistances
… sprint interval training (SIT) pedal resistances within a 3-week intermittent HA protocol. The study used a parallel groups design. Fourteen physically active adults completed an incremental time till exhaustion (TTE), Wingate test and a 15 min time trial at 38ºC and 30% relative …
