Global Vibration Comfort Evaluation of Footbridges Based on Computer Vision [PDF]
Sensors, 2022 The vibration comfort evaluation is a control standard other than strength and deflection, but the general comfort evaluation method only considers the response of the mid-span position and does not consider the difference in the vibration response of ...

I Feel I Need to Think about It: A Defence of Affective Moral Enhancement. [PDF]
BioethicsABSTRACT Critics of affective moral enhancement generally contend that moral improvement can only be properly achieved through interventions that engage a person's rational faculties. Therefore, they view attempts to achieve moral improvement by targeting emotions as futile at best and detrimental to moral agency at worst.
