Abstract Theoretical analyses using a rate‐ and state‐dependent friction law have shown quasistatic stable slip behaviors following velocity weakening. We estimated spatiotemporal distributions for six slow events (SSEs) off the Boso Peninsula, Japan, from Global Navigation Satellite System data plotted their shear stress variations vs. velocity, here called “trajectories.” Most trajectories ar...

Abstract FinEstBeAMS is an atmospheric and materials science beamline located at the 1.5 GeV storage ring of MAX IV Laboratory in Lund, Sweden. It offers a very wide photon energy range 4.5-1300 eV radiation with different polarization characteristics. The has three end stations installed two branch lines. new solid state station (SSES) described this paper. high-throughput apparatus flexible s...

BACKGROUND A major goal of predictive genetic testing for melanoma is to promote early detection to reduce mortality. This study evaluated the long-term impact of melanoma genetic test reporting and counseling on screening adherence. METHODS This study assessed adherence to recommendations for annual total body skin examinations (TBSE) and monthly skin self-examinations (SSE) among 37 members...

Among the promising batteries for electric vehicles, rechargeable Li-air (O2) (LABs) have risen keen interest due to their high energy density. However, safety issues of conventional nonaqueous electrolytes remain bottleneck practical implementation LABs. Solid-state (SSEs) with non-flammable and eco-friendly properties are expected alleviate concerns, which become a research focus in field Her...

The demand for higher energy density and safety leads to replacement of conventional Li+ batteries all-solid-state lithium-ion (ASSLIB). A conductivity comparable with those liquid electrolytes is sine qua non commercialization ASSLIB, sulfide solid-state (SSEs) demonstrate this feature. However, the interfacial SSE decomposition at electrodes/electrolyte interfaces Li-dendrite growth anodes re...

Earthquake swarms, which are anomalous increases in the seismicity rate without a distinguishable mainshock, often accompany transient aseismic processes, such as fluid migration and episodic slip along faults. Investigations of earthquake swarm activity can provide insights into causal relationship between processes seismicity. Slow events (SSEs) plate interface Hikurangi Trench, New Zealand, ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Failure to recognize and treat clinical deterioration remains a source of serious preventable harm for hospitalized patients. We designed a system to identify, mitigate, and escalate patient risk by using principles of high-reliability organizations. We hypothesized that our novel care system would decrease transfers determined to be unrecognized situation awareness fai...

[1] A network of continuously recording GPS stations has operated in the Nicoya Peninsula of northern Costa Rica since 2002. We processed all available data from this network for the period of 2002–2011 to investigate the occurrence of Slow Slip Events (SSE) on the subduction interface between the Cocos and Caribbean plates. In order to overcome signal masking by high levels of tropospheric noi...
