Theology and Women’s Agency in the Context of Intimate Partner Violence in Ghana by Elorm Ama Stiles-Ocran

“…My findings indicate that multiple systems, including informal social support networks, constrain survivors while simultaneously serving as conditions for their personal faith and individually constructed theologies.

The Role of the Aceullular Pertussis Vaccine and the Comeback of 'Pertussis Pete'? by John M Conly, B Lynn Johnston

“…Until two decades ago, pertussis in adults was a medical curiosity (2-4), but with the purification of specific Bordetella species antigens, the development of reliable enzyme immunoassays allowing accurate serological diagnosis and better understanding of the duration of immunity from vaccination, it has been clearly demonstrated that B pertussis is a common cause of prolonged cough in adults. Indeed, its incidence has been increasing gradually over the past decade in both adults and adolescents. …”

On DIC measurements of DeltaKeff to verify if it is the FCG driving force by Julián Andrés Ortiz González, Jaime Tupiassú Pinho de Castro, Giancarlo Luis Gomez Gonzáles, Marco Antonio Meggiolaro, José Luiz de França Freire

“…Redundant data obtained under quasi-constant {DeltaK, Kmax} loading conditions is used to verify if the effective stress intensity factor (SIF) range DeltaKeff DeltaKmax DeltaKop is indeed the fatigue crack driving force. The crack opening SIF Kop is measured along the entire crack path on DC(T) low carbon steel specimens by a series of strain gages bonded along the crack paths, by a strain gage bonded on their back faces, and by a digital image correlation technique. …”

Les échos de la presse dans le silence du cabinet. La posture médiatique flaubertienne à la lumière de la correspondance by Nejma Omari

“…While Flaubert’s financial security exempted him from the daily publications that contemporary writers-journalists had to produce, it did not necessarily means disinterest. Indeed, over the letters, the author - who claims not to be concerned by the press and displays a pronounced disgust for its mechanisms - advises his friends (Bouilhet, Colet ...) to submit their articles to newspapers. …”

Research of the Geometric Characteristic of Undercutting and Limit Normal Point in Gear Geometry by Chen Ningxin

“…The undercutting phenomena and the limit normal point are two important concepts in gearing theory,design and manufacturing.Based on the different opinions about them in the current research of limit normal point and the geometry and movement characteristics of undercutting neighborhood research is not sufficient,the study on undercutting and limit normal point of the following different gears is carried out by using TCA technology,they include spur and helical involute gears,straight bevel gear,cylindrical worm-gears including I type,K type and C type worm-gear,face-milled and face-hobbed spiral bevel and hypoid gear,as well as single-enveloping and double-enveloping globoidal worm-gear.The study results show that,the sliding velocity on the undercutting line of the generated surface is not equal to zero as the traditional result but moves along the tangent of the undercutting line for most gears except for spur involute and straight bevel gears,the limit normal point is the tangent point of the undercutting line and contact boundary line indeed.…”

Brumes, brouillards et incertitudes dans John Marchmont’s Legacy (1863) de Mary Elizabeth Braddon by Marion Charret-Del Bove

“…Surprisingly enough, this is not London that is clouded in a wreath of mist, but the English countryside in Lincolnshire, continuously wrapped in fog. Indeed, those two atmospheric elements appear simultaneously with strange events and mysterious characters, thus embodying Victorian notions of secrecy, uncertainty and doubt. …”

High-cycle fatigue strength of a pultruded composite material by C. Colombo, M. Guagliano, L. Vergani

“…However, their use is still limited by the partial knowledge of their fatigue behaviour; in many applications it is, indeed, required a duration of many millions of cycles, while most of the data that can be found in literature refer to a maximum number of cycles equal to 3 millions. …”

Going to See Animals: An Analysis of Tourist Offerings for Wildlife Observation in the French Alps by Louis Defraiteur, Laine Chanteloup, Clémence Perrin-Malterre

“…These offers were then mapped to explore the spatial anchorage of these tourist practices; thereby underlining the diffuse and spontaneous character of these offers. Indeed, rather than being linked to one or more concerted territorial policies, the tourist diversification processes around wildlife observation are the result of the addition of individual intentions to enhance the value of wild animals.…”

Le Guyana: "Land of Six Peoples" ou "One People, One Nation" ? by Léna Loza

“…Indians and Blacks, who were both subject to colonial power, have indeed developed antagonistic relationships. In the face of a proclaimed unity which nevertheless fails to conceal real divisions, it is worth exploring what problems Guyanese society has faced since it gained independence in 1966 and what strategies it has resorted to in order to solve these issues…”

Sulle rappresentazioni di Benito Mussolini e del fascismo in Sibilla Aleramo by Serena Mercuri

“…In fact, a concept of the “New Woman” accompanies the Nietzschean ides of the “New Man”, in a specular and sometimes opposite form. Fascism, indeed, welcomes and promotes the idea of a female universe made up of good wives and excellent mothers of the Fascist faith, identities created according to the dictates of a canon that is not entirely new but which was subject to a framing that was unprecedented in Italian history and specific to the socio-political system. …”
