Study on Crack Initiation and Propagation of New Corrosion Inhibitor during Stress Corrosion of Aluminum Alloy by Juan Du, Zi-ming Wei, Xu-dong Yang, Qing-mao Liu, Hai-peng Song, Xue-lan Hu, Xiang-yun Li

“…In this paper, a novel method combining electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and phase shift was used to systematically study the effect of corrosion inhibitor (sodium succinate, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, and new corrosion inhibitor, namely, bis [2-amino-3-(dodecyl dimethyl quaternary ammonium) propyl]-propylamine dichloro) on crack initiation and propagation of aluminum alloy during the slow strain rate tensile process. Using a variety of characterization methods to verify the feasibility of using the new method for in-situ prediction, Kramers–Kronig transformations have been used to validate the experimental data obtained with the EIS measurements. …”

Improving the quality of induction of labour in maternity services by Mohamed Elnasharty, Raweya Al-Dabbagh, Iman Makramallah, Abdelhameed Ismail

“…Then we started implementing the required changes with continuous engagement with staff and service users, followed by an evaluation of the services.Quality improvement is a continuous process. Hence, the induction of labour working group evaluates the process monthly through the maternity dashboard, women’s feedback and satisfaction survey with the help of the quality improvement team.Intervention (1) Multidisciplinary IOL working group was established, including a consultant obstetrician, deputy head of midwifery, consultant midwife, senior midwife and senior registrar. (2) Engagement with stakeholders and service users. (3) Develop IOL guidelines to standardise the process. (4) Develop IOL booking pro forma. (5) Update the patient information leaflets and use of technology to help easy access to information and develop a dedicated team for booking of pregnant patients for IOL.Discussion and conclusion A high rate of IOL is associated with a higher rate of women’s dissatisfaction as a result of the difference between women’s expectations and their experience. …”
