National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

The phenotype and outcome of patients with a recent fracture at the fracture liaison service

open access: yes, 2023
Fractures constitute a major health problem. Risk factors for osteoporosis, falls and fractures are prevalent in patients aged 50 years and older at the Fracture Liaison Service (FLS). A systematic evaluation of comorbidities and medication associated with an increased fracture risk contributes to a profound evaluation of the subsequent fracture risk ...

The Role of Fracture Liaison Services in Re-Fracture Prevention [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Osteoporosis is a disorder of low bone mass and micro-architectural deterioration in bone, resulting in increased bone fragility and susceptibility to fractures even after minimal or inadequate trauma [Anonymous, Consensus conference, 1993]. On statistical grounds, more than 50% of postmenopausal women, and approximately 30% of men over the age of 60 ...

Toward the Application of Multiaxial Failure Criteria: Mean Stress Sensitivity of Carbide‐Rich, High‐Alloy PM‐HIP Tool Steels Under Axial and Torsional Cyclic Loading

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
This study quantifies axial and torsional long‐life fatigue (LLF) behavior of three carbide‐rich PM‐HIP tool steels, correlating LLF strength with intrinsic defect size and cleanliness, thereby extracting material‐specific mean stress sensitivities and Haigh diagrams.

Tailored Hardening and Isothermal Bainitizing of Additively Manufactured Nitrogen‐Enhanced Martensitic Chromium Steel

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
Tailored heat treatments transform additively manufactured high‐nitrogen martensitic Cr steel from austenitic as‐built condition to high‐hardness states. Isothermal bainitizing at 250°C generates an ultrafine nanostructure and achieves higher hardness than conventional hardening and tempering, highlighting a promising postprocessing route for laser ...

Intimate Spaces on the Open Road: Navigating Access, Trust, and Ethical Boundaries during Field Research with Long Haul Truck Drivers

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Despite its ubiquity, the trucking industry is not well‐understood in social scientific literature. Gathering insight into truckers' worlds is difficult due to the solitary, isolating, and unpredictable nature of the work. An understanding of truckers' work lives and work ideologies is even further limited.

When Time Stands Still: The Destructive Experience of Ambiguous Loss among Mothers of Combat Soldiers

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
What happens when stories refuse coherence? This article examines ambiguous loss among mothers of combat soldiers, focusing on how prolonged waiting and uncertainty infiltrate everyday life, eroding sensemaking. Drawing on ethnographic interviews, it explores how mothers experience the contraction of time and space—manifested in suspended routines ...

“Who Is Watching me?”: Recovering the Grammar of Stigma in Interaction

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
This article offers a praxeological respecification of stigma. I argue that the term “stigma” is a category term and glossing device, used to gather together and stand in for a diverse range of interactional experiences, including, but not limited to, degradation, discrediting, discrimination, marginalization, and being demeaned.

Model‐Based Systems Engineering in Space Applications: A Comprehensive Literature Review

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing complexity of space engineering is driving the demand to embrace the adoption of Model‐Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Although the MBSE is well‐practiced in the space industry, the level of effort and need required to obtain the benefits of MBSE vastly differ across enterprises; this disparity presents a significant challenge to
