Plastics and labor: The case of disposable medical plastics

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Plastics are ubiquitous in the contemporary practice of medicine, where they are tied to notions of hygiene and quality of care. However, when plastics first infiltrated global medical practice, they did so because of considerations related to patient comfort and durability.

Development of a friction model for the numerical simulation of clinching processes

Friction
In numerical simulations of mechanical joining processes, such as clinching, modeling of material behavior is of decisive importance. In addition to the correct representation of plasticity and damage mechanisms, this primarily includes modeling of the ...

Development of a SWAT+ Model to Improve Conservation Practice Efficacy for Protecting Stream Health in Karst Pasturelands

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Placing appropriate conservation practices in critical source areas of pollutants can benefit stream health in karst environments susceptible to agricultural pollution. Watershed models, such as the Soil and Water Assessment Tool+ (SWAT+), can optimize both practice selection and placement across the landscape, but to our knowledge no studies ...

Real‐Time In Vivo Monitoring of Anastomotic Intestinal Ischemia Using Implantable Resorbable Organic Sensors

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
Resorbable impedance sensors are successfully implanted into porcine small intestinal anastomoses. Impedance was recorded for 2 hours prior, and 2 hours following ischemia induction, and a significant drop in tissue impedance was observed. Abstract Anastomotic failure remains one of the most severe complications in gastrointestinal surgery.

A 2D Approach to Predict the High‐Cycle Fatigue Life of Clinched Joints

Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Clinching is a widely adopted joining technique in the automotive industry, enabling the fabrication of lightweight structures from dissimilar sheet materials. Accurate prediction of the fatigue life of clinched joints is essential for ensuring structural safety and minimizing development costs.

Multi-Item Vickrey-Dutch Auctions [PDF]

, 2010
Descending price auctions are adopted for goods that must be sold quickly and in private values environments, for instance in flower, fish, and tobacco auctions. In this paper, we introduce efficient descending auctions for two environments: multiple non-

Civility, honour and male aggression in early modern English jestbooks

Gender &History, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 70-85, March 2026.
Abstract This article discusses the comical representation of inter‐male violence within early modern English jestbooks. It is based on a rigorous survey of the genre, picking out common themes and anecdotes, as well as discussing their reception and sociable functions. Previous scholarship has focused on patriarchs, subversive youths and impoliteness.
