Hydrogeology of a thick clay till and Cretaceous clay sequence, Saskatchewan, Canada
R Joel Shaw,M. Jim Hendry +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the hydraulic conductivity of a two-tiered aquitard system was investigated using laboratory and field methods at a test site in Saskatchewan, Canada, where the aquitards were composed of 80 m of uniform, plastic clay-rich Battleford till and 77 m of late Cretaceous plastic marine clay.

Plane-stress essential work of ductile fracture for polycarbonate
C. A. Paton,S. Hashemi +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of specimen geometry, specimen size and the specimen orientation on the essential work of fracture for polycarbonate is investigated, and it is shown that for a given sheet thickness,we is a fundamental material property being independent of the specimen geometry and size.

Inconsistencies in endoscope-reprocessing and infection-control guidelines: the importance of endoscope drying.
TL;DR: Endoscope drying is as important to the prevention of nosocomial infection as cleaning and high-level disinfection (or “liquid sterilization”) and modification and revision of guidelines are recommended as required to be consistent with one another.
