Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors implement a stochastic risk structure into the OSeMOSYS optimization model to incorporate uncertainty related to the emissions of electricity generation technologies and find that when risk is incorporated, solar and wind technologies are built out seven and five years earlier respectively and that carbon free technologies such as coal with carbon capture and storage (CCS) become effective alternatives in the energy mix when compared to the ‘optimal' solution without consideration of risk, though this does not include the risk of carbon leakage from CCS technologies.

TL;DR: The lived experience of unsuccessful resuscitation was described by the participants as one in which theyfortified themselves for the emotional consequences and sense of loss associated with this experience while establishing a connectedness with the patient and his/her significant others.
Abstract: Although approximately 58% of patients in critical care units die despite resuscitation efforts, the experience of nurses who participate in unsuccessful patient resuscitation has been largely unexamined. The article is a description of a phenomenological research study designed to investigate this experience. Nine nurses employed in cardiac or intensive care units of a tertiary care hospital participated in the study by contributing paradigm narratives concerning unsuccessful patient resuscitation. The lived experience of unsuccessful resuscitation was described by the participants as one in which theyfortified themselves for the emotional consequences and sense of loss associated with this experience while establishing a connectedness with the patient and his/her significant others.

TL;DR: Experimental measurements of shear stress induced by impellers at a membrane surface were made with an electrochemical approach and the results were used to validate CFD simulations and were extrapolated to include the non-Newtonian behaviour of activated sludge.

TL;DR: A detailed analysis of interrater reliability, both aggregated and over individual students, that considers not only labeling agreement among judges in terms of emotion type, but also with respect to the number of emotions detected.
Abstract: We present the results of a study that explored the emotions experienced by students during interaction with an educational game for math (Heroes of Math Island). Starting from emotion frameworks in affective computing and education, we considered a larger set of emotions than in related research. For emotion labeling, we started from a standard methodology that relies on trained judges to report emotions over 20-s intervals, however, we asked judges to report all observed emotions in each interval, as opposed to only choosing one, as is standard practice. This variation allows us to discuss the appropriateness of this interval for emotion labeling. We present a detailed analysis of interrater reliability, both aggregated and over individual students, that considers not only labeling agreement among judges in terms of emotion type, but also with respect to the number of emotions detected. We also provide an analysis based on in-depth one-to-one interviews with judges, to gain insights on the challenges they encountered in labeling emotions.
