Handling Everyday Life: An Analysis of Ordinary Acting
ABSTRACT What does it mean to shape one's own everyday life and to be the author of one's ordinary acting with all its repetitions, anchored habits and well‐known practices? In this paper, I argue that moral philosophy should pay more attention to human agency in quotidian contexts.

Optimization Design And Simulation for Driving Mechanism of Flapping-wing Air Vehicle
In allusion to the study of flapping- wing air vehicles( FAV) with double- crank and double- rocker kind construction at present,the optimization design method of the flapping- wing driving mechanism with maximum value of minimum transmission angle is ...

2D quasi-steady flow simulation of an actual flapping wing [PDF]
[[abstract]]This paper deals about the dynamic behavior of flapping wing with an aid of stereo photography measurement using charge coupled device (CCD) camera. The three dimensional (3D) flapping motion was captured and coordinates are measured with the

ABSTRACT This paper presents a close‐hearing analysis of Forest 404, a transmedial audio drama that was released to BBC Sounds in 2019. Despite the drama's eco‐dystopian critique of teleological ‘progress’ narratives (that enable and perpetuate the destruction of the natural world), I argue that the series ultimately propagates a sense of inevitability

ABSTRACT Noonan Syndrome (NS) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous condition characterized by typical facial dysmorphisms, short stature, congenital heart defects, and developmental delays. While variants in genes such as PTPN11, SOS1, and RAF1 account for most genetically confirmed cases, diagnosis is challenging due to phenotypic overlap ...

SARS‐CoV2 Omicron and its substrains are still a critical global health issue and extremely contagious, even with widespread vaccination efforts. Hospitalizations and mortality rates linked to these variants are still prevalent. Current therapeutic options face challenges, including low effectiveness, suboptimal pharmacokinetics, and drug resistance ...

Segmented Gurney Flaps for Improved Wind Turbine Wake Recovery
ABSTRACT When wind passes through the rotor of a wind turbine, the velocity is decreased while turbulence is increased. The region of decreased wind speed behind the rotor is known as the wind turbine wake and is bounded by a complex structure of helical vortices. This structure occurs to be more stable in low ambient turbulence and low tip speed ratio

Flapping Wing Micro Air Vehicle
Background: Vibrational stability is a natural phenomenon where a system if vibrating at sufficiently high frequencies, can bring itself back into a stable state if perturbed. This is akin to the high frequency flapping that hummingbirds and insects employ to maintain a hovering position and fly. Micro Air Vehicles (MAV) are a subset of air
