Soft Skills for Entry-Level Engineers: What Employers Want (open access)

Soft Skills for Entry-Level Engineers: What Employers Want

This article is a review of literature for skills comprised within the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET) criteria determined 26 topics necessary for the entry-level and continued success of engineers. The findings suggest that although entry-level engineers have proficiency in all of these ABET required skills, the entry-level engineers were not meeting the level of importance expressed by the organization for 24 of these 26 skills.

Trypsin induces an aversive response in zebrafish by PAR2 activation in keratinocytes (open access)

Trypsin induces an aversive response in zebrafish by PAR2 activation in keratinocytes

Article using zebrafish as a model and identifies that trypsin induces an aversive response in zebrafish larvae and adult zebrafish. Results show that the trypsin activates PAR2 on keratinocytes signaling the brain, and this pathway of trypsin-induced escape response will provide a unique communication mechanism in zebrafish.

Effect of Laser Shock Peening Parameters on Residual Stresses and Corrosion Fatigue of AA5083 (open access)

Effect of Laser Shock Peening Parameters on Residual Stresses and Corrosion Fatigue of AA5083

Article examining Aluminium alloy 5083 subjected to Laser Shock Peening both with (LSP) and without protective coating (LPwC) at multiple pulse densities. A second LPwC treatment was conducted fully submersed under water, in addition to the standard laminar water flow condition. Results show that compressive residual stresses were generated in all cases, although their character varied depending on the peening strategy and method of confinement.

The hygroscopicity of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) with a gradient fiber structure (open access)

The hygroscopicity of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) with a gradient fiber structure

This article studies the hygroscopicity of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) with a gradient fiber structure assessed by a dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) apparatus and fitted with a Haillwood–Horrobin (H–H) model. The effects of the chemical composition, gradient fiber structure, and mesopore structure of the bamboo were also investigated. The results demonstrate that the hygroscopicity of bamboo gradually increases from the outer to the inner layer along the thickness of the culm wall, which is related to the gradient distribution of the fibers. The structure–function relationships between the chemical composition, multi-scale structure, and hygroscopicity identified in this study provide a theoretical basis for bamboo drying and storage technology, as well as the processing and application of bamboo fiber-based composites.

Visual Narratives: Anti-racist Pedagogy in Art and Design captions transcript

Visual Narratives: Anti-racist Pedagogy in Art and Design

Video recording featuring guest panelists, Bridget R. Cooks, Ph.D., Omari Souza, and Wesley Taylor, this fourth installment of the 2044 series frames Afrofuturism and futurist thinking as a means for exploring the practices of design and museum curation as well as implications for art/design pedagogy. The panelists explore and discuss how hegemony is perpetuated, sharing the ways in which they decolonize within their curricula and pedagogy, as well as practice anti-racism in their work to reimagine risk or resist classification. While design institutions perpetuate neoliberalist ideals and language and teach under the paradigm of design for consumption, art/design education has the capacity to make a great impact by embracing the power of art and design to imagine alternative futures. The speakers also discuss important issues of cultural ethics, including copyright and appropriation, protections, and speaking up for community.

Organic Collaborative Research Partnership Building: Researchers, Needle and Syringe Program Providers, and People Who Inject Drugs (open access)

Organic Collaborative Research Partnership Building: Researchers, Needle and Syringe Program Providers, and People Who Inject Drugs

Article reporting on the use of an organic community research partnership-building approach between researchers, needle and syringe program (NSP) providers, and people who inject drugs (PWID) in Canberra ACT, Australia. Results found engaging in relationship building around partner priority activities created mutual understanding and trust premised in authenticity of the evolving partnership. The organic approach, which included a partner audit of the research tools for relevance, resulted in high acceptance and enrollment into the research by NSP providers and PWID. The results of this study provide evidence for the benefits of organic collaborative research partnership building with NSP providers and PWID for authentic service program implementation.

Adverse Childhood Experiences and Forensic Typologies: Getting Specific about Trauma among Institutionalized Youth (open access)

Adverse Childhood Experiences and Forensic Typologies: Getting Specific about Trauma among Institutionalized Youth

Article on Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). Utilizing data from 3382 institutionalized delinquents in Texas, logistic regression models indicated multiple associations between ACEs and forensic typologies in both adjusted and unadjusted models, with sexual abuse and physical abuse emerging as the most consistent and robust predictors. Supplemental sensitivity models confirmed the associations between sexual abuse and physical abuse among youth who fit multiple forensic typologies. Models fared poorly at identifying youth who are engaged in fire setting. Implications for total and singular ACEs are discussed, along with how those relate to more clinically meaningful, forensic forms of juvenile delinquency.
