Meaning-making and intervention in child and youth care practice by Thom Garfat

“…We do not really know, however, whether meaning is pre-existent, or whether each of us is ultimately the 'author of his or her own life design' (Yalom, 1989, p. 8), creating meaning individually as we move through life. It has generally been accepted in the helping professions, however, that meaning is created as we encounter our experiences (Peterson, 1988; White & Epson, 1990; Watzlawick, 1990) creating for each of us a unique and individualised experience of an event. …”

Glaucoma Detection and Feature Identification via GPT-4V Fundus Image Analysis by Jalil Jalili, PhD, Anuwat Jiravarnsirikul, MD, Christopher Bowd, PhD, Benton Chuter, MD, Akram Belghith, PhD, Michael H. Goldbaum, MD, Sally L. Baxter, MD, Robert N. Weinreb, MD, Linda M. Zangwill, PhD, Mark Christopher, PhD

“…In terms of feature detection, GPT-4V demonstrated high consistency (repeatability) in image gradability, with an agreement accuracy of ≥89% and substantial agreement in rim thinning and cup-to-disc ratio assessments, although kappas were generally lower than expert-to-expert agreement. Conclusions: GPT-4V shows promise as a tool in glaucoma screening and detection through fundus image analysis, demonstrating generally high agreement with expert evaluations of key diagnostic features, although agreement did vary substantially across datasets. …”

Deformation Stability and Failure Analysis of Composite Interface Accumulation Slope by LI Shuai

“…Distribution of groundwater and accumulated soil stress is an important factor for the deformation stability and failure mode of composite interface slope.Based on the typical geological section of Dongjiashan landslide,this paper generalizes a geomechanical model of composite interface slope,analyzes the development and evolution results of the equivalent plastic zone of the slope at different groundwater levels by finite element software,mainly explains the stress and deformation characteristics of the slope,slip zone and central soil in natural state,and reveals the deformation and failure mechanism of the composite interface slope.The numerical calculation results show that under natural and heavy rain conditions,the equivalent plastic zone of the slope first penetrates integrally and gradually develops towards the middle of the slope,and finally forms the secondary plastic penetrating surface in the upper middle part of the slope.The groundwater level reduces the stability of the composite base slope,and there is a higher possibility of secondary sliding on the upper part of composite interface slope during heavy rain.The shape of the horizontal displacement change curve of the slip zone and slope is similar to that of the composite interface,and the non-monotonic change potential slip surface affects the deformation distribution and failure mode of the slope at the geotechnical composite interface.…”

Hybrid Vibration Control under Broadband Excitation and Variable Temperature Using Viscoelastic Neutralizer and Adaptive Feedforward Approach by João C. O. Marra, Eduardo M. O. Lopes, José João de Espíndola, Walter Antônio Gontijo

“…Since temperature variations affect directly and considerably the performance of the passive control system, composed of a viscoelastic dynamic vibration neutralizer (also called a viscoelastic dynamic vibration absorber), the associative strategy of using an active-adaptive vibration control system (based on a feedforward approach with the use of the FXLMS algorithm) working together with the passive one has shown to be a good option to compensate the neutralizer loss of performance and generally maintain the extended overall level of vibration control. …”
