Unpacking value destruction at the intersection between public and private value
Abstract Public services do not always create value. Rather, when poorly organized and/or delivered, they can destroy value and make service users' lives worse. However, such “value destruction” is presently weakly conceptualized in public management theory. Consequently, this paper is devoted to the empirical examination of value destruction and hence

Abstract The 2014 Hazelwood coal mine fire in the Latrobe Valley, Australia, distributed toxic smoke into surrounding communities over 45 days. This study investigated risk and protective factors associated with four trajectories of posttraumatic distress (resilient, recovery, delayed‐onset, chronic) among exposed adults.

GRAIN GROWTH AND MICROSTRUCTURAL FEATURES OF MULLITE OBTAINED BY REACTION SINTERING OF ALUMINA WITH RHYOLITE [PDF]
The grain growth and microstructural features of mullite obtained by a reactive sintering of alumina with rhyolite were studied in the temperature range of 1460℃ to 1600℃ in air. The formation of mullite was related to the amount of alumina solubility in

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) still needs more scientific rationale to be proven for it to be accepted further in the West. We are now in the position to propose computational hypotheses for the mode‐of‐actions (MOAs) of 45 TCM therapeutic action (sub)classes from in silico target prediction algorithms, whose target was later annotated with Kyoto ...

ABSTRACT MCrAlX coatings are widely used as bond coats in thermal barrier coating systems to protect turbine blades from high‐temperature oxidation. However, their oxidation resistance is often restricted by uncontrolled microstructures, surface roughness, and aggregation of reactive elements (REs). In this study, high‐repetition‐rate femtosecond laser
