Disability after non‐cardiac surgery – patient‐centred outcomes and resource utilisation after non‐cardiac surgery (PACORUS): a prospective multicentre cohort study*

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction The Standardised Endpoints in Perioperative Medicine Initiative recommends the 12‐item WHO Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS) 2.0 to measure postoperative functional impairment. However, evidence describing long‐term postoperative disability, particularly at 1 year, remains limited.

A Scoping Review of Mixed Initiative Visual Analytics in the Automation Renaissance

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Artificial agents are increasingly integrated into data analysis workflows, carrying out tasks that were primarily done by humans. Our research explores how the introduction of automation recalibrates the dynamic between humans and automating technology. To explore this question, we conducted a scoping review encompassing twenty years of mixed‐

A Comparative Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) and Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) Pavement: A Case Study in China

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2019
Generally, the warm mix asphalt (WMA) technology can reduce the mixing and paving temperature effectively as compared with that of hot mix asphalt (HMA), which is considered more environment-friendly. In this study, the environmental impacts and resource

THE EFFECT OF SBR LATEX AND WARM MIX AGENT ON THE PERFORMANCE OF DRY AND WET ASPHALT MIXTURES

open access: yesMağallaẗ Al-kūfaẗ Al-handasiyyaẗ
Moisture damage has been identified as one of the most common causes of distress in asphalt mixes. The attachment between bitumen aggregate components deteriorates when water interacts at the interface, causing the binder to be stripped from the exterior

‘A Perpetually Disintegrating Synthesis’: Sartre on Bad Faith, Good Faith, and the Projects of Selfhood

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract An oft‐overlooked aspect of Sartre’s concept of selfhood is his rejection of good faith and sincerity as normative ideals. We argue that Sartre’s paradoxical treatment of good faith – claiming both that it is a manifestation of bad faith and the antithesis of it – holds a key to understanding Sartre’s account of selfhood.

Short‐term survival of mallards following external transmitter attachment

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Capturing birds for external transmitter attachment allows researchers to collect abundant movement and behavioural data across spatial and temporal gradients but can expose birds to additional stress due to prolonged handling, sometimes leading to mortality.
