This article deals with the intensification of grinding process in ball mills. Attention is drawn to need reduce energy input for grinding. Data on cement clinker kinetics when surface-active agents are used, as well issues by changing surface profile armor plates given.

The Etymologies (as found in The Lost Road and in the “Addenda and Corrigenda to the Etymologies” published in Vinyar Tengwar 45 and 46) include several examples of forms that are denoted as “intensified” by Tolkien, among them those that are formed by a prefix. The entry A‐ (VT45:5) is perhaps the best starting point for a classification of these intensified forms. We learn there of an intensi...

Grading is a primary cognitive operation that has an important expressive function. Information on degree is grammatically relevant and constitutes what Lazard (2006) calls a primary domain of grammaticalization: According to typological studies (Cuzzolin & Lehmann, 2004), many languages of the world have in fact at their disposal multiple grammatical devices to express gradation.

Guidelines for diabetes care recommend that physicians select individualized glycemic goals based on life expectancy, diabetes duration, comorbidity, and resources/support. When patients have stable hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) levels, guidelines lack recommendations on when diabetes medications should be de-intensified.To understand physicians' perspectives on de-intensifying diabetes medications in...

This paper describes the Facilitation Tool, a tool built to untangle two problems that we find in current Group Decision Support Systems. If we want to allow facilitators manage such systems with success, then a planning functionality more detailed than the currently available is necessary. We also found very limited support to remote facilitation. Several notions concerning decision-making and...
