The 2 μm wavelength band (1800–2100 nm) emerges as a promising candidate for next‐generation optical communication. As result, silicon photonic platforms acquire great interest since they offer the ultimate minimization of systems applications. However, large bandgap and indirectness structure conventional SiGe alloy prevent their utilization efficient photodetection in band. To overcome this d...

Critical thinking and argumentation skills are crucial for developing responsible citizens active participants in society. Indeed, reasoning known to be exercised differently distinctive cultures. Historical, cultural institutional contexts shape the way people a society think, communicate act. In this regard, predominant Western assumption that should detachable from emotion may not necessaril...

This work is based on the idea that extension of physical and mathematical theories to include the amount of space, time, momentum, and energy resources required to determine properties of systems may influence what is true in physics and mathematics at a foundational level. Background material, on the dependence of region or system sizes on both the resources required to study the regions or s...

BACKGROUND The grading of recommendation, assessment, development and evaluation (GRADE) approach is widely implemented in health technology assessment and guideline development organisations throughout the world. GRADE provides a transparent approach to reaching judgements about the quality of evidence on the effects of a health care intervention, but is complex and therefore challenging to ap...

The clinical utility of medical tests is measured by whether the information they provide affects patient-relevant outcomes. To a large extent, effects of medical tests are indirect in nature. In principle, a test result affects patient outcomes mainly by influencing treatment choices. This indirectness in the link between testing and its downstream effects poses practical challenges to compari...

Filtration performance of nonwoven geotextiles strongly depends on pore opening constriction size, i.e., the minimum opening size of flow channels across the geotextile. Currently available methods of pore opening characterizations do not provide accurate information about the constriction size. This paper presents the constriction size distributions of eleven nonwoven geotextiles commonly used...

The purpose of this study is to examine the intentionality principles in culture-specific Balinese language that can be contextually used on levels utterance meaning(s) and force. data for were collected by using a participatory observation method, questionnaire, Focused Group Discussion (FGD). closed-question survey was conducted only observe people’s perception expressing requests. It then re...
