Ethical Foreground and Background in Adult Educator Work
ABSTRACT Adult educators work in a complex ethical environment. The very act of contributing to the learning of another is fraught with moral overtones. In this paper we consider the ethical dimensions of adult educator practice by distinguishing the ethical features of the context or ‘background’ of practice from the ethical capabilities and decision ...

Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists in Multiple Sclerosis: A Topical Narrative Review
ABSTRACT The glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists (RAs) are a relatively new class of drugs that were initially approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and, subsequently, weight reduction in patients with obesity.

Geometry‐driven thermal behavior in wire‐arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) influences microstructural evolution during nonequilibrium solidification of a chemically complex Fe–Cr–Nb–W–Mo–C nanocomposite system. By comparing different deposits configurations, distinct entropy–cooling rate correlations, segregation, and carbide evolution are revealed ...

Explosion Characteristics of a Volatile Explosive [PDF]
Thermal explosion of volatile energetic materials has been investigated based upon the thermal explosion theory of a gaseous mixture. The critical and transition condition expressions for the thermal explosion of these materials are obtained. The analytical solutions not only deal with the steady-state solution but also cover the unsteady state ...

Self‐Cleaning Sensor Surfaces for Long‐Term Environmental Monitoring
Long‐term use of unattended outdoor sensors without soiling or biofouling is achieved through generation of a micro‐ and nanorough cuvette surface by combing hydrophobic nanoparticles with fluorinated polymers, crosslinked and surface‐attached through CHic chemistry. The coating demonstrates self‐cleaning behavior and prolonged outdoor stability, which
