Building on success: increasing higher education retention in London

The GLA commissioned the Social Market Foundation to look at the reasons behind the non-continuation (drop-out) rate of undergraduates studying at London’s higher education institutions. This...

Numerical modelling of fracture intensity increase due to interacting blast waves in three-dimensional granitic rocks

This work presents a detailed three-dimensional finite element based model for wave propagation, combined with a postprocessing procedure to determine the fracture intensity caused by blasting. The...

Social perceptions on Pinus radiata invasion and the influence of fire occurrence in Central Chile, 2023-2024

This dataset was constructed to understand the perceptions of respondents about pine tree invasion in three communes in central-southern Chile: Santa Juana, Constitución and Tucapel. In addition,...

Impacts of Increasing Land Use under Energy Crops - GIS Data, 2006-2009

GIS-based computer generated real-time landscape models, and other computer generated static images were produced and used alongside photographs in more in-depth interviews and focus groups. (Some...
