Applying an Ethical Lens to the Treatment of People With Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The practice of neurology requires an understanding of clinical ethics for decision‐making. In multiple sclerosis (MS) care, there are a wide range of ethical considerations that may arise. These involve shared decision‐making around selection of a disease‐modifying therapy (DMT), risks and benefits of well‐studied medications in comparison to

The scaled-time test as an alternative to the pseudo-dynamic test [PDF]

, 1995
The stepped and excessively slow execution of pseudo-dynamic tests has been found to be the source of some errors arising from strain-rate effect and stress relaxation.

Tensile Armor Wires Submitted to Slow Strain Rate Tests in a Corrosive Environment and Cathodic Protection: a Comparison Between Two Different Microstructures

Materials Research, 2019
Tensile armor in flexible pipes consists of two or more layers of steel wires. Damage to the outer sheath may cause ingress of seawater in the annular space and thus corrosion of the armor wires.

Economic Burden of Rheumatoid Arthritis in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries: Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this systematic review was to synthesize the economic impact of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on households, health systems, and society in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Methods Electronic databases such as PubMed, Web of Science, and CINAHL were searched using keywords related to RA and cost of illness.

Evaluation of hydrogen embrittlement in ODS-Cu, Cu–Cr–Zr, and Cu–Cr alloys using slow strain rate technique test

Nuclear Materials and Energy
Precipitation-hardened Cu–Cr–Zr alloy is proposed as a heat sink material for various components of the ITER owing to its high strength, high conductivity, and superior resistance against neutron irradiation. Oxide-dispersion-strengthened copper (ODS-Cu)

Low-frequency gravitational radiation from coalescing massive black hole binaries in hierarchical cosmologies

, 2004
We compute the expected gravitational wave signal from coalescing massive black hole (MBH) binaries at the center of galaxies in a hierarchical structure formation scenario in which seed holes of intermediate mass form far up in the dark halo merger tree.

Unified Description of Aging and Rate Effects in Yield of Glassy Solids [PDF]

, 2005
The competing effects of slow structural relaxations (aging) and deformation at constant strain rate on the shear yield stress $\tau^y$ of simple model glasses are examined using molecular simulations. At long times, aging leads to a logarithmic increase

Estimation of environment-induced crack growth rate as a function of stress intensity factors generated during slow strain rate testing of aluminum alloys

Corrosion reviews, 2019
In this contribution, we introduce a simple approach to quickly estimate the environment-induced crack velocity (CV) as a function of the calculated applied stress intensity factor (K) developed during the slow strain rate testing of aluminum alloys ...

Stress Corrosion Cracking Behavior of Duplex Stainless Steel by Slow Strain Rate Tests

Corrosion, 2009
Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) behavior of three duplex stainless steels with a low nickel composition was studied. The results are compared with two commercial duplex steels of standard composition, one of them containing molybdenum. The slow strain rate tests were carried out in solution containing 50 g/L of chlorides and under a controlled ...

Revisiting Stability Criteria in Ball‐Milled High‐Entropy Alloys: Do Hume–Rothery and Thermodynamic Rules Equally Apply?

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 27, Issue 6, March 2025.
The stability criteria affecting the formation of high‐entropy alloys, particularly focusing in supersaturated solid solutions produced by mechanical alloying, are analyzed. Criteria based on Hume–Rothery rules are distinguished from those derived from thermodynamic relations. The formers are generally applicable to mechanically alloyed samples.
