Contrasting the beam interaction characteristics of selected lasers with a partially stabilised zirconia (PSZ) bio-ceramic [PDF]
Differences in the beam interaction characteristics of a CO2 laser, a Nd:YAG laser, a high power diode laser (HPDL) and an excimer laser with a partially stabilised zirconia (PSZ) bio-ceramic have been studied.

The Hour that Never Comes and the Time that Remains
Abstract This essay proposes a symbolic and clinical investigation of psychic temporality through two archetypal experiences of time: the hour that never comes and the time that remains. Drawing on analytical psychology, trauma theory and aesthetic philosophy, text explores how certain forms of suffering resist chronological resolution and persist as ...

Microstructural changes initiated by sintering of refractory concrete based on recycled bauxite aggregate [PDF]
Concretes whose structure and final properties are shaped during thermal pre-treatment or during life-service at elevated temperatures can be applied as construction material for thermal insulation and/or refractory linings in high-temperatureoperating ...

Summary Research in multiple myeloma increasingly relies on surrogate end‐points to expedite approvals, yet these may not reflect patient priorities. We conducted a mixed‐methods study to identify outcomes valued by patients and clinicians and compare them with end‐points used in randomized controlled trials (RCTs).

Uniaxial compressive creep of a 90+% Al(,2)O(,3) and 50+% Al(,2)O(,3) refractory concrete was investigated. The creep behavior was evaluated as a function of aggregate packing, cement composition, and time at temperatures up to 2200(DEGREES)F and stresses up to 2500 psi;Refractory concrete crept more when heated the first time than on subsequent ...

Abstract ‘I have to share a bathroom’, I had so often murmured, almost with shame, as if I personally had been found unworthy of a bathroom of my own. Barbara Pym, Excellent Women (1952) For a single woman of a certain age, living alone in postwar London, austerity was more than a set of political and economic imperatives.

Excitable media in open and closed chaotic flows [PDF]
We investigate the response of an excitable medium to a localized perturbation in the presence of a two-dimensional smooth chaotic flow. Two distinct types of flows are numerically considered: open and closed.

The Plural Lives of E‐Waste: Valuation and Contestation in Accra's Recycling Network(s)
Short Abstract Electronic waste (e‐waste) in Accra is shown to be plural and ontologically multiple, enacted as livelihood, commodity, hazard, governance object and political actor across dispersed recycling networks. Using a multi‐sited, follow‐the‐thing approach and 60 interviews, I specify four socio‐material mechanisms (i.e., copper's market tempo,

Catch Me If You Can: The Dynamic Nature of Bias in Machine Learning Applications
ABSTRACT Bias in machine learning (ML) applications represents systematic differences between expected and actual values of the predicted outputs, such that certain individuals or groups are systematically and disproportionately (dis)advantaged. This paper investigates the dynamic nature of bias in ML applications.
