Violence within: Understanding the use of violent practices among Mexican drug traffickers (2019)
Working Paper
Garcia-Reyes, K. Violence within: Understanding the use of violent practices among Mexican drug traffickers

This paper provides first-hand data regarding the perpetrators’ perspectives about their engagement in practices of drug trafficking-related violence in Mexico such as murder, kidnapping, and torture. Drawing on the life stories of thirty-three form... Read More about Violence within: Understanding the use of violent practices among Mexican drug traffickers.

Filamentary extension of the mem-con theory of memristance and its application to titanium dioxide sol-gel memristors (2012)
Working Paper
Gale, E., de Lacy Costello, B., & Adamatzky, A. Filamentary extension of the mem-con theory of memristance and its application to titanium dioxide sol-gel memristors. Bristol

Titanium dioxide sol-gel memristors have two different modes of operation, believed to be dependent on whether there is bulk memristance, i.e. memristance throughout the whole volume or filamentary memristance, i.e. memristance caused by the connecti...

The effect of electrode size on memristor properties: an experimental and theoretical study (2012)
Working Paper
Gale, E., de Lacy Costello, B., & Adamatzky, A. The effect of electrode size on memristor properties: an experimental and theoretical study. Bristol

The width of the electrodes is not included in the current phenomenological models of memristance, but is included in the memory-conservation (mem-con) theory of memristance. An experimental study of the effect of changing the top electrode width was... Read More about The effect of electrode size on memristor properties: an experimental and theoretical study.

Aluminium electrodes effect the operation of titanium oxide sol-gel memristors (2011)
Working Paper
Gale, E., Pearson, D., Kitson, S., Adamatzky, A., & de Lacy Costello, B. Aluminium electrodes effect the operation of titanium oxide sol-gel memristors. Bristol

By a comparison between memristors made with aluminium and gold electrodes, this letter demonstrates that aluminium electrodes are an essential component of the TiO$_2$ sol-gel flexible memristor . Both slow varying `analogue' and sudden switching `d... Read More about Aluminium electrodes effect the operation of titanium oxide sol-gel memristors.

Transforming our world: Afrophobia and the need for disaggregated statistics to monitor equality in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development
Working Paper
Olaiya, H. B. A. (2015). Transforming our world: Afrophobia and the need for disaggregated statistics to monitor equality in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development

This working paper of advocates disaggregated data collection and analysis, as asserted by Target 17.18 of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. In this respect the researcher re-asserts this is imperative for norm and policy development to ad...

Behavioural aspects of the national minimum wage: Measuring and interpreting behaviour in the low-wage labour market
Working Paper
Fry, S., & Ritchie, F. (2013). Behavioural aspects of the national minimum wage: Measuring and interpreting behaviour in the low-wage labour market. UK

Report for LPC on how low pay is measured in official data sources. Finds that (a) employers tend to 'round' hourly pay rates, suggesting scope for rent-sharing in these low-paying jobs, and/or high transactions costs associated with wage-setting; an...
