Highlighting the need for more holistic, participatory design of assistive technologies in displacement settings

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health
Forced displacement exacerbates existing disabilities and can lead to the development of functional impairments, especially for women, children, and aging populations. Estimates indicate 15 to 33% of displaced individuals live with disabilities, but data

Internal Displacement And Forced Displacement

open access: yesInternational Journal For Multidisciplinary Research, 2023
The Displacement of people refers to the forced movement of people from their locality or environmental and occupational activities it is a form of social change caused by a number of factors, the most common being armed conflict . Natural Disasters, famine, development and economic changes may also be a cause of displacement. Today the world is moving

Nano-scale displacement sensing based on Van der Waals interaction

open access: yes, 2014
We propose the nano-scale displacement sensor with high resolution for weak-force systems could be realized based on vertical stacked two-dimensional (2D) atomic corrugated layer materials bound through Van der Waals (VdW) interaction.

Parent Quality of Life at Two Years Following Their Child's Completion of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Treatment

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Parents of children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often experience significant caregiver burden and disruption to their well‐being. While parent quality of life (QoL) during treatment is well characterized, little is known about outcomes during early survivorship.

Lateral cephalometric analysis of asymptomatic volunteers and symptomatic patients with and without bilateral temporomandibular joint disk displacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Few studies of dentofacial and orthodontic structural relationships relative to temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction have been reported. We undertook this investigation to determine any correlation of orthodontic and dentofacial characteristics with

Asymptotic behavior of Structures made of Plates

open access: yes, 2011
The aim of this work is to study the asymptotic behavior of a structure made of plates of thickness $2\delta$ when $\delta\to 0$. This study is carried on within the frame of linear elasticity by using the unfolding method.

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Focusing on climate-related internal displacement

open access: yesForced Migration Review, 2015
Global attention should place a primary focus on the application of best practice and the development of innovative initiatives to solve climaterelated internal displacement, rather than on grappling with the far rarer movements of people across borders.

Evacuated, displacement compression mold [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
A process of molding long thin-wall tubular bodies from thermosetting plastic molding compounds is described wherein the tubular body lengths may be several times the diameters.

Experimental demonstration of a Displacement noise Free Interferometry scheme for gravitational wave detectors showing displacement noise reduction at low frequencies

open access: yes, 2010
This paper reports an experimental demonstration of partial displacement noise free laser interferometry in the gravitational wave detection band. The used detuned Fabry-Perot cavity allows the isolation of the mimicked gravitational wave signal from the
