探析中国打工妹之婚恋 = A study on love and marriage of Chinese female migrant workers by 朱嘉怡 Zhu, Jiayi

“…This paper, in a new perspective, aims to discuss the dual marginalized identity of migrant women who have experienced a unique marriage and love life. Some migrant workers choose to return to the rural villages, some willing to use their body in exchange with the benefits of goods from global capitalism and some inspired to create a marvellous life with their own hands. …”

Evidence-based roadmap for geoheritage conservation in southeast Arabia: Inventory, evaluations, and communicating geocultural connections by Sayama, K

“…Over the past 30 years, the need for protecting geoheritage sites has become increasingly recognised, especially in Europe and East Asia, epitomised by the establishment of international frameworks such as the UNESCO Global Geoparks in 2015. However, in some regions, including southeast Arabia, geoheritage sites lack representation in nature conservation frameworks and the future of many valuable sites remains uncertain.…”

Internet tool to support self-assessment and self-swabbing of sore throat: development and feasibility study by Lown, M, Smith, KA, Muller, I, Woods, C, Maund, E, Rogers, K, Becque, T, Hayward, G, Moore, M, Little, P, Glogowska, M, Hay, A, Stuart, B, Mantzourani, E, Wilcox, CR, Thompson, N, Francis, NA

“…<br><strong> Conclusions:<br></strong> Most adult and parent participants were able to use a web-based intervention to assess the clinical features of throat infections and generate scores using clinical prediction rules. However, some had difficulties assessing clinical signs, such as lymph nodes, throat pus, and inflammation, and scores were assessed as sensitive but not specific. …”

“…Despite this, there is evidence that the rate of increase in CO2 emissions over the last decade has slowed compared to the 2000s, and depending on societal choices, a continued series of these annual updates over the critical 2020s decade could track a change of direction for some of the indicators presented here.…”

HiPIMS deposition of VO2 thermochromic coating for enhanced optical properties by Vu, Tuan Duc

“…Vanadium dioxide (VO2) is one of the potential candidates for smart window materials due to its ability to reversibly transit from monoclinic VO2(M) to rutile VO2(R) at a near room temperature. As a result of this transition, the infrared radiation (IR) transparent VO2(M) abruptly becomes IR opaque and effectively regulates the heat intake by solar radiation. …”

Thermal effects on particle deposition in microchannels by Yan, Zhibin

“…The reduction of particle deposition rate with Reynolds number is attributed to the increased hydrodynamic lift force which hinders the transport of particles from the bulk solution to the near-wall region. For the pulsatile flow which is generated by a specially designed pulsation generation unit, an oscillatory flow component is superimposed onto the steady flow of the particle suspension. …”
