AbstractThe ARIES research program is a multi-institutional effort to develop several visions of tokamak reactors with enhanced economic, safety, and environmental features. Three are currently planned for the program. The ARIES-I design DT-burning reactor based on "modest" extrapolations from present physics database relies either existing technology or which trends already in place, often programs outside fusion; ARIES-II will employ potential advances physics; ARIES-III conceptual D-3He...
Elder mistreatment (EM) is a potentially fatal and largely unrecognised problem in the United States. The purpose of this study was to determine prevalence EM busy clinics specifically, we report on feasibility screening for as well appropriate instrumentation screening.Prevalence estimates elder vary, but recent data from national sample community-residing adults over 60 years age indicate that 11.4% older some form mistreatment. There paucity research related dental medical understand such...

Background/Context Research has also shown that educators who are more socially and emotionally competent likely to create nurturing relationships high-quality classroom environments result in academic success for students. Despite the importance of teacher-student on student outcomes, limited research investigated factors contribute development these relationships, particularly special education teachers (SETs) working with students emotional/behavioral disorders (EBDs). Focus Study This...
The Advanced Reactor Innovation and Evaluation Study (ARIES) is a community effort to develop several visions of the tokamak as fusion power reactor. aims are determine its potential economics, safety, environmental features identify physics technology areas with highest leverage for achieving best authors focus on ARIES-1 design. Parametric systems studies show that optimum first stability has relatively low plasma current ( approximately 12 MA), high aspect ratio 4-6), magnetic field 24 T...
The General Electric (GE) H turbine system in Wales is designed to be 60% thermally efficient. Welsh installation will serve as a springboard for two other installations, planned New York State and Tokyo, so that the technology span three continents. 480-megawatt first gas combined-cycle world achieve thermal efficiency. main advantage provided by efficiency economic, because fuel represents largest single expense running fossil-fueled power plant. GE engineers based much of design on proven...
The purpose of this study was to establish the feasibility and utility screening for elder mistreatment in a dental clinic population. We approached older adults busy enrolled 139 persons over age 65 who completed an Audio Computer Assisted Self Interview (ACASI), which included Hwalek-Sengstock Elder Abuse Screening Test (HS-EAST). Overall, 48.4% participants scored 3 or greater on HS-EAST, 28.3% 4 greater. Our suggests that there is opportunity screen clinics facilitate early detection...
A description of the ARIES-III research effort is presented, and general features reactor are described. The plasma engineering fusion-power-core design summarized, including major results, key technical issues, central conclusions. Analyses have shown that power-balance window for D-/sup 3/He tokamak reactors small requires a first wall (or coating) highly reflective to synchrotron radiation values tau /sub ash// epsilon e/ (the ratio ash-particle energy confinement times in core plasma)....
Introduction Commercial motorcyclists popularly known as Okada in Nigeria are who carry passengers for hire. It is one of the major and most common means informal transport Nigeria. Its popularity widespread acceptance has rapidly risen recent years. Unfortunately, rise been accompanied by increased levels high-risk behaviour accidents; a result they have come under heavy scrutiny culminating legislations restricting some instances prohibiting their operations cities. Objectives To identify...
Consensus among the majority of staff is essential for development and consistent implementation Schoolwide Positive Behavior Interventions Supports (SWPBIS) framework. At universal level, a shared vision reflects consensus regarding operational definitions behaviors (rules) consequences. Yet, decades research indicate that educators possess idiosyncratic standards student behaviors. Lengthy often unproductive discussions can arise when discussing school rules with large group adults. To...
Community-based mental health care providers (CBMHCPs) are increasingly contacted by external researchers for research study recruitment. Unfortunately, many do not possess the resources or personnel with skills required to successfully evaluate proposals risks. Providing access clients and client information can result in harmful personal legal consequences if proper safeguards exist. This article discusses requirements practical implications CBMHCPs when acting as gatekeepers. A case from...
This article highlights that researchers are developing new technologies to carry H2 in gas, liquid, or solid state. The advantages of hydrogen fuel for cars and trucks keep driving efforts develop ways handling it. Hydrogen has the highest energy content by weight any fuel—52,000 Btu per pound. As simplest most common element universe, though never found naturally pure form, can be produced from a host available sources, including water, natural coal, biomass, municipal waste, scrap tires....
