Double-Effect Reasoning: From Jean Pierre Gury to Peter Knauer

open access: yes, 1998
The author argues in favor of the thesis proposed by Peter Knauer and others that double-effect reasoning, or the principle of double effect, changes in character from Aquinas\u27s initial formulation in his treatment of self-defense to the articulations

Highly sensitive and high Q-factor photonic crystals serially coupled hexagonal resonator for pressure sensing

open access: yesResults in Optics
The work explores an SOI-based pressure sensor that operates up to a maximum pressure of 12 MPa and is modeled and analyzed using the finite element method and the finite difference time domain Method.

Impact of MgO Additions on the Oxidation Resistance and Compression Behavior of Vanadium Alloys

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An increase in oxidation resistance at 600 °C is achieved for alloys containing more than 2.5 wt.% MgO. It has been established that, along with V2O5, MgO6V2, and Mg2O7V2 are formed, which are presumed to enhance oxidative stability. Furthermore, the possible transformation of Mg‐vanadates through reaction with CO2, which presumably occurs in this ...

Conceptions of Morality and the Doctrine of Double Effect

open access: yes, 1991
Whether one should accept a principle like DDE [Doctrine of Double Effect] cannot be settled independent of one's more general moral theory.

Entropy‐Driven Design of Low‐Melting‐Point Alloys via Compositionally Complex Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Conventional low‐melting‐point alloys (LMPAs) are limited by a narrow compositional space and inherent property trade‐offs. This review presents an entropy‐driven design strategy that overcomes these limitations, ushering in a new class of low‐melting‐point compositionally complex alloys (LMCCAs).

The Single Tax Principle as a Limit to Double Non-Taxation? A Broad Perspective

open access: yes, 2019
In recent years, double non-taxation phenomenon has gained some importance. This phenomenon means that income is not subject to tax anywhere. Based on a purported international tax regime, some academics have defended the existence of a single tax ...

High‐Entropy Alloy Interlayers Toward Advanced Joining for High‐Performance Structural Applications: Current Progress and Emerging Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
HEA interlayers offer a versatile route for joining high‐performance structural materials. Their compositional and structural design regulates interfacial reactions, suppresses brittle IMCs, and improves metallurgical bonding. Sandwich interlayers further integrate defect healing with precipitation strengthening, enabling improved strength–ductility ...

Two Challenges to the Double Effect Doctrine: Euthanasia and Abortion

open access: yes, 2002
The validity of the double effect doctrine is examined in euthanasia and abortion. In these two situations killing is a method of treatment. It is argued that the doctrine cannot apply to the care of the dying.

Elastic–Plastic Modeling and Experimental Characterization of Granular Jamming Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Granular jamming enables rapid switching between soft and rigid mechanical states. Here, a reduced‐order elastic‐perfectly‐plastic beam framework captures pressure‐dependent loading, unloading, residual deformation, and hysteresis in jammed beams, while matching three‐point bending experiments across materials and geometries. The framework links design
