Abstract:
Determination of the failure limit in a repeated-load fatigue test in the laboratory has relied entirely on the arbitrary selection of a fixed criterion. The constant strain and constant stress modes of fatigue loading have been described by a consistent definition of failure in flexural fatigue testing because of the distinctly different application of energy during the loading history. The most widely accepted definition is a decrease in initial stiffness by 50 percent. Procedures examining energy input and dissipated energy have required different schemes for each mode in an attempt to desc

Sexual abstinence programs have the potential to reduce the incidence of unplanned pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) among adolescents. Effectiveness measures are needed to help researchers assess the impact of sexual abstinence promotion programs on STD and pregnancy rates and to enable comparisons of abstinence effectiveness with other contraception and STD prevention methods. Abstinence “failure rates” have been proposed as one measure of program effectiveness. However, the concept of abstinence failure rates has not been adequately operationalized. The present study exam

While current practice typically relies on crash-based analysis after the fact to diagnose safety problems and provide corrective countermeasures on roads, surrogate measures of safety are emerging as a complementary evaluation that can allow engineers to proactively respond to safety issues. These surrogate measures attempt to address the primary limitations of crash data, which include underreporting, lack of reliable insight into the events leading to the crash, and long data colle

This chapter presents a new thermodynamic argument for the existence of God. Naturalistic physics provides evidence for the failure of induction, because it provides evidence that the past is not at all what you think it is, and your existence is just a momentary fluctuation. The fact that you are not a momentary fluctuation thus provides evidence for the existence of God—God would ensure that the past is roughly what we think it is, and you have been in existence for roughly the amount of time you think you have.

Abstract:
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a global pandemic, affecting half of the heart failure population and with an incidence and prevalence expected to increase further with an ageing population. With no therapy to reduce morbidity or mortality, HFpEF has been defined as the single largest unmet need in cardiovascular medicine. As compared with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), patients with HFpEF are more likely to be older and female, to have a higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors (i.e. obesity, hypertension, and diabetes), other cardiovascular co-morbidities (i.e. atrial fibrillation and valvular disease) and non-cardiovascular co-morbidities (i.e. anaemia, chronic pulmonary disease, and chronic kidney disease), but a lower prevalence of ischaemic heart disease. In non-selective cohorts and registries, crude but not adjusted mortality is higher in HFpEF vs. HFrEF, with risk of cardiovascular events lower in HFpEF, especially in clinical trial populations. A novel category, heart failure with mid-range ejection fraction (HFmrEF) has been introduced for an ejection fraction in the 40–49% range, to emphasize that this range is not normal but also has no evidence-based interventions. HFmrEF appears similar to HFrEF with regard to ischaemic heart disease prevalence and outcomes, but is intermediate between HFpEF and HFrEF in many other aspects.

Abstract:
The term "teaching" is usually used in the Academy without a clear sense of what is meant, resulting in imprecise and ineffective teaching. The standard lines-that teaching is a matter of applying approved methods, that teaching is mostly a matter of teaching skills-as-means to some career or whatever-are reflective of failure in the Academy, measured in its "defect rate" of around 30 percent. The definition of teaching I sketch-skills adopted from a theoretical foundation, in turn based on a critique-is well founded in the scholarly tradition. Such a definition is, however, challenging to an Academy at the end of an ancien régime.

Abstract:
Numerous definitions for complexity have been proposed with little consensus. The definition here is related to Kolmogorov complexity and Shannon entropy measures. However, the price is to introduce context dependence into the definition of complexity. Such context dependence is an inherent property of complexity. Scientists are uncomfortable with such context dependence that smacks of subjectivity, which is the reason why little agreement is found on the meaning of the terms. In an article published in Molecules, Lin presented a novel approach for assessing molecular diversity based on Shannon information theory. A set of compounds is viewed as a static collection of microstates that can register information about their environment. The method is characterized by a strong tendency to oversample remote areas of the feature space and produce unbalanced designs. This chapter demonstrates the limitation with some simple examples and provides a rationale for the failure to produce results that are consistent.

Abstract:
Historically, the approach to software engineering has been based on a search for an optimal (ideal) methodology — that is, the identification and application of a set of processes, methods and tools that can consistently and predictably lead to software development success. This chapter presents the basis for pursuing a more flexible and adaptive approach to methodology. Less methodical methodologies, under a variety of names, take a contingency-oriented approach. Because of the limitations in the nature of methodology, the high failure rate in software development, the need to develop methodology within an environmental context and the pressures of fast-paced “e-development,” the authors argue that further exploration and definition of an adaptive, contingency-based approach to methodology is justified.

Abstract:
Chapter 4 discusses how case formulation helps therapists take an active and directive role in the collaborative endeavor of psychotherapy, how problems are defined, the types of changes that can be expected, and how to reach these goals, which all derive from the therapist's conceptualization of the case. It also discusses how case conceptualization is the framework for providing interventions that flexibly meet the specific needs of the client and guide the therapist's decision making, based on a knowledgeable appreciation of relevant evidence-based interventions. It then covers how formal psychological testing and the care in which a thorough assessment is made not only differ among practitioners, but how they can be heavily influenced by their theoretical orientation. It also covers the different views of dealing with problematic behavior, including either a failure to learn the necessary adaptive behaviors or competencies, or the learning of ineffective or maladaptive behaviors, and how careful assessment is necessary, including definition, observation, and recording of behaviors needing modification.

Abstract:
Sepsis is defined as life- threatening organ dysfunction caused by a detrimental host response to infection. Septic shock is a subset of sepsis in which underlying circulatory and cellular abnormalities are profound enough to substantially increase mortality. Septic shock is characterized by: ● The need for vasopressors to maintain mean arterial pressure (MAP) &gt; 65mmHg despite adequate volume resuscitation. ● A serum lactate &gt; 2mmol/L In lay terms, it is hypoperfusion with evidence of metabolic derangement. The mortality for both criteria is ~40%, compared to 20–30% for a single item. Please also refer to: https:// www.nice.org.uk/ guidance/indevelopment/gid-cgwave0686 The old definitions of sepsis described a heterogeneous group of patients and did not discriminate between infectious and non- infectious causes such as pancreatitis and trauma. The new definitions also allow easier recognition, based on a combination of symptoms and signs. Key parameters include: decreased level of consciousness, rigors, severe myalgia, high or low temperature, pulse &gt; 130/min, systolic blood pressure &lt; 90mmHg, respiratory rate (RR) &gt; 25/ min, creatinine &gt; 170μmol/ L, platelets &lt; 100 x 109/l and bilirubin &gt; 33μmol/ L. The Clinical Quality Commission recommend that NHS trusts use the national early warning score (NEWS), and a score &gt; 5 is an indication to consider moving a patient to critical care. SIRS is defined as any of the two following criteria: acutely altered mental state, temperature &lt; 36°C or &gt; 38°C, pulse &gt; 90/ min, RR &gt; 20/ min, WCC &gt; 12 or &lt; 4 x 109/L and hyperglycaemia in the absence of diabetes mellitus. In the former definitions (1991 and 2001), sepsis was defined as infection plus SIRS. SIRS, however, was not good at separating infected patients who died from those who recovered from infection. SIRS was often an appropriate reaction to infection and many hospitalized patients meet the SIRS criteria. Also, as many as one in eight patients admitted to critical care units with infection and new organ failure did not have two SIRS criteria required to fulfil the sepsis definition. SIRS is no longer part of the new definitions.

Abstract:
Acute kidney injury (AKI) can generally be considered as sudden reduction in kidney function occurring over hours to days, and is commonly but not always associated with a reduction in urine output. Its definition was based on rises in serum creatinine and reductions in urine output criteria. Its incidence, prevalence, and aetiology vary according to the country/region profile (low income, high income, tropical, etc.), age (children, adult, or elderly), and clinical setting (outpatients versus inpatient, hospital versus intensive care unit). The incidence of AKI is increasing in the hospital setting, and is more common with increasing age, male sex, pre-existing CKD, and comorbidity (congestive cardiac failure, diabetes, hypertension). The majority of cases result from multiple insults: dehydration, drugs in conjunction with inflammation and/or sepsis. AKI may have a spectrum of being an incidental finding with no signs or symptoms to a moderate to severe condition with increased morbidity and mortality due to accumulation of nitrogenous waste products and fluid–electrolyte disorders. The aetiologies of AKI are numerous and can broadly be classified as pre-renal, intrinsic renal, and post-renal (obstructive). A thorough evaluation of the patients with AKI for diagnosis and treatment are required. There are no specific treatments, but eliminating aetiological reasons and protection from further kidney function loss are crucial. A balanced haemodynamic management along with a balanced fluid–electrolyte replacement and arranging drug dosages are important. Various modes of renal replacement therapies may be used for treating severe cases.

As part of the ReDAPT, a project commissioned and co-funded by the ETI (Energy Technologies Institute), the first standard for certification of horizontal axis tidal turbine (HATT) has been commissioned to DNV GL in order to accelerate the development of the tidal technology and its commercialization. Although the development of the standard is limited to one turbine concept and unlike the wind turbines, the possible variations of configurations and the limited track record of the technology provided great challenges to define requirements and parameters to be considered in all aspects of the

Abstract:
Companies struggle to identify new business opportunities based on their core competence be it products or services. When a company focuses on improving current offerings or is too involved in them, it has difficulty discovering new applications for them. Scenario Graph is an original design method for products or services that aids design teams to envision four types of information while in the market definition phase: potential user locations, activities associated with the location, user circumstances, and the corresponding user state. By using Scenario Graph, design teams are better able t

Abstract:
Abstract Yield on specific designs often falls far short of predicted yield, especially at new technology nodes. Product-specific yield ramp is particularly challenging because the defects are, by definition, specific to the design, and often require some degree of design knowledge to isolate the failure. Despite the wide variety of advanced electrical failure analysis (EFA) techniques available today, they are not routinely applied during yield ramp. EFA techniques typically require a significant amount of test pattern customization, fixturing modification, or design knowledge. Unless the pro

Abstract:
This review is largely based on grey literature, in particular policy documents and reports by international development organizations. While there was substantial literature on approaches and principles to GBV documentation, there was less on remote service delivery such as helplines – much of this only in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, very little was found on actual examples of GBV documentation in developing contexts. By definition, gender featured strongly in the available literature; the particular needs of persons with disabilities were also addressed in discussions of
