Implementing Health‐Related Quality of Life Assessment in Pediatric Oncology: A Feasibility Study
ABSTRACT Background There is growing interest in embedding health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) assessment and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) within clinical cancer care. This study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability, and usability of implementing an electronic PROM (ePROM) platform to measure HRQoL in children with cancer ...

Battery Degradation Maps for Power System Optimization and as a Benchmark Reference
This paper presents a novel method to describe battery degradation. We use the concept of degradation maps to model the incremental charge capacity loss as a function of discrete battery control actions and state of charge.

Modeling battery cells under discharge using kinetic and stochastic battery models
In this paper we review several approaches to mathematical modeling of simple battery cells and develop these ideas further with emphasis on charge recovery and the response behavior of batteries to given external load. We focus on models which use few parameters and basic battery data, rather than detailed reaction and material characteristics of a ...
