With this in mind, the “slippery slope argument” was introduced: this describes circumstances in which an innovation, once created, generates its own potentially unstoppable momentum to grow beyond its initial
2,3have resulted in a noninvasive treatment regimen for (proximal) enamel caries aimed at closing the gap between preventive and restorative dentistry, thus obviating any sacrifice of dental tissues and improving oral health4. When the low-viscosity resin used in this treatment regimen has been...
1a, b, the two valence bands essentially converge in energy for the 1: 1 ratio of Zn and Mg, closing their 0.096 eV offset (hereafter rounded to 0.1 eV) in CaMg2Sb2. These results suggest that the bands likely did converge in the experiments for the alloy (albeit at x = 0.86), ...
This movement ecology paradigm has been introduced by Nathan et al. (2008) and since then, research on the conceptual framework of organismal movement and its components has significantly increased (Joo et al., 2022). The concept of individual movement was extended to include intra- and inter-...
upon being informed that "while he was doing that thing, then it's better if there's peace…".Footnote24A message sent to a collaborator, three days before the tender closing, celebrates the new agreement, in which Buzzi obtains the public contract: "Nuntio vobis gaudium magnum habemus papam...
In our approach, we have sought to draw upon theories and practices regarding inclusive learning design, digital storytelling and to a certain degree also connectivism. Our methodology was originally developed and trialled as part of the Erasmus+ project ReGap, introduced below, and has been furthe...
Nicorette managed to get back on track on Thursday, closing the gap on team Illbruck of Germany, the current leader. This footage from video taken aboard the Nicorette shows the terrible conditions they experienced as they struggled to stay in the race. ...
only through their SG node device files. Kernel support for the ZAC host-managed device signature (0xabcd) was introduced in kernel 3.18. Any kernel older than this version will not create an SG node device file for ZAC host-managed devices connected to an AHCI SATA port on the target ...
interpret “band convergence” strictly as shifts in band energies, i.e., the closing off energy offset between two bands of interest, independent of how they may also change in shapes during alloying in experiments. Note that where convenient and unambiguous, we use the Hartree atomic units (...
Interviewees expect that overcapacity on the grid will decrease by the closing down of coal-fired electricity plants, starting by 2020. A decrease in overcapacity will put pressure on the grid operator and energy companies with responsibility for grid management, to treat the electricity transported ...
