Numerical finite element simulations of the behavior of a car body in frontal, side or rear impact collision scenarios have become increasingly complex as well as reliable and precise. They are well established as a standard evaluation tool in the automotive development process. Both, the increased complexity plus the advances in computer graphics technology have resulted in the need for new vi...

The increasingly used method of corpus-assisted Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) has recently been criticised for lacking identifiable and accountable methods in its qualitative analyses. For example, manual concordance analysis (a popular corpus technique involving the ‘close reading’ text) rarely explicates involved – that is, if any at all. This article seeks to strengthen context press rep...

A combined experimental/analytical work is carried out to elucidate the energy absorption potential of laterally confined bars under monotonically increasing edge displacement. The thickness t and length L of the bar, as well as the wall-to-wall separation distance, h, are systematically varied. Real-time observations show that the deformation of the bar is characterized by progressive buckling...

The Islamic moral code originates from two primary sources: the Quran and the Sunnah (Rady and Verheijde 2014a). Regardless of time and place, this code provides practical and comprehensive guidance on behavioral aspects in health and illness. In Western principlism-based bioethics, medical futility justifies withholding and withdrawing of life-sustaining treatment (LST) based on a subjective d...

Objective: Multiple sclerosis (MS) has several physical, psychological, and psychiatric symptoms. Regarding the psychological impact of MS on aspects of life, this study sought to examine the effect of group quality of life therapy on depression and anxiety in these patients. Methods: Two groups of 15 matched patients with MS were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups after co...
