Mental health self-stigma: links with social self-worth contingencies and ally support by Rebecca A. Burwell, Sierra Bias

“…Results support hypothesized correlations between social self-worth contingencies, ally support (participant-defined), and self-stigma, though do not support links with community connectedness or researchers’ definition of ally support. Participant-defined ally support predict self-stigma, controlling for self-worth contingencies, though do not meet all conditions for mediation. …”

Computerized Generation of Nonstandard and Asymmetric Involute Spur Gears Based on Rack Cutter Parametric Tracing by Ahmed A. Toman, Mohammad Q. Abdullah

“…This technique, although shown to be accurate in generating a 2D standard tooth, is time-consuming as it necessitates the use of source code, a programming language, a graphic processor for displaying computer graphs, a post-graphic processor for eliminating unrelated lines, and a post-process for exporting the tooth geometry to CAD software. This research presents an alternative direct computerized generation method that is shown to be accurate, generate both 2D and 3D gears, and be significantly more time-efficient. …”
