TL;DR: In this paper, the tribological mechanism of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films was investigated and it was shown that the DLC films possess excellent wear resistance and exhibit low values of friction coefficient.
Abstract: In the present work, the tribological mechanism of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films was investigated. DLC films were coated on metallic substrates (M50 steel, Ti-6Al-4V alloy and AISI 440C steel) by methane ion-beam deposition. Pin-on-disc experiments showed that the DLC films possess excellent wear resistance and exhibit low values of friction coefficient (ƒ

TL;DR: A dip in the L/E distribution was observed in the data, as predicted from the sinusoidal flavor transition probability of neutrino oscillation, which constrained nu(micro)<-->nu(tau) neutrinos oscillation parameters.
Abstract: Muon neutrino disappearance probability as a function of neutrino flight length $L$ over neutrino energy $E$ was studied. A dip in the $L/E$ distribution was observed in the data, as predicted from the sinusoidal flavor transition probability of neutrino oscillation. The observed $L/E$ distribution constrained ${\ensuremath{
u}}_{\ensuremath{\mu}}\ensuremath{\leftrightarrow}{\ensuremath{
u}}_{\ensuremath{\tau}}$ neutrino oscillation parameters; $1.9\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}3}l\ensuremath{\Delta}{m}^{2}l3.0\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}3}\text{ }\text{ }{\mathrm{e}\mathrm{V}}^{2}$ and ${sin }^{2}2\ensuremath{\theta}g0.90$ at 90% confidence level.

TL;DR: In this paper, the spatial distributions of temporal trends in the reference evapotranspiration as well as in the meteorological variables that determine evapotspiration are analyzed, and the spatial distribution pattern of the pan coefficient is significantly influenced by wind speed and relative humidity in the region.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe Kirkpatrick's four-level training evaluation model and the potential risks these limitations raise for evaluation clients and stakeholders, and argue that these risks, plus the inability of the model to effectively address both the summative question (Was training effective?) and the formative question(How can training be modified in ways that increase its potential for effectiveness), limits the capacity of training and HRD professionals to fulfill the core ethical duty of beneficence.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors systematically review evidence bearing on the management of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), including breaking the news, multidisciplinary clinics, symptom management, cognitive and behavioral impairment, communication, and palliative care for patients with ALS.
Abstract: Objective: To systematically review evidence bearing on the management of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Methods: The authors analyzed studies from 1998 to 2007 to update the 1999 practice parameter. Topics covered in this section include breaking the news, multidisciplinary clinics, symptom management, cognitive and behavioral impairment, communication, and palliative care for patients with ALS. Results: The authors identified 2 Class I studies, 8 Class II studies, and 30 Class III studies in ALS, but many important areas have been little studied. More high-quality, controlled studies of symptomatic therapies and palliative care are needed to guide management and assess outcomes in patients with ALS. Recommendations: Multidisciplinary clinic referral should be considered for managing patients with ALS to optimize health care delivery and prolong survival (Level B) and may be considered to enhance quality of life (Level C). For the treatment of refractory sialorrhea, botulinum toxin B should be considered (Level B) and low-dose radiation therapy to the salivary glands may be considered (Level C). For treatment of pseudobulbar affect, dextromethorphan and quinidine should be considered if approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (Level B). For patients who develop fatigue while taking riluzole, withholding the drug may be considered (Level C). Because many patients with ALS demonstrate cognitive impairment, which in some cases meets criteria for dementia, screening for cognitive and behavioral impairment should be considered in patients with ALS (Level B). Other management strategies all lack strong evidence.
