Lung Capacity01:47

Lung Capacity

56.5K
The air in the lungs is measured in volumes and capacities. Lung volume measures reflect the amount of air taken in, released, or left over after a lung function, like a single inhalation. Lung capacity measures are sums of two or more lung volume measures.

Respiratory Capacities

1.5K
Respiratory capacities are crucial indicators of lung function, representing the maximum amount of air an individual's respiratory system can handle during various breathing phases.
One key metric is the Inspiratory Capacity (IC), which represents the maximum amount of air that can be inhaled with full effort. IC is calculated by summing the tidal volume and inspiratory reserve volume, typically ranging from 2.4 to 3.6 liters.
The Functional Residual Capacity (FRC) represents the air in the...

Movement Joints in Buildings01:27

Movement Joints in Buildings

364
Movement joints in buildings are essential design elements that accommodate inevitable motions caused by various factors such as temperature changes, moisture content variations, and structural deflections. These motions, if not considered in design and construction, can lead to unsightly or dangerous damage. Movement joints are incorporated in different forms to manage these stresses and allow materials to move without causing distress.
The simplest type of movement joints, working joints, are...

Types of Building Stone01:30

Types of Building Stone

471
Building stones, essential materials for construction, are extracted from natural rock deposits and processed into specific forms and dimensions suitable for various building applications. These stones are broadly classified into three types based on their geological formation: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic.
Igneous rocks are formed from the solidification of magma or lava. An example is granite, known for its durability and resistance to weathering, making it ideal for parts of...

Buffers: Buffer Capacity01:09

Buffers: Buffer Capacity

2.5K
Buffer capacity is the quantitative measure of a buffer to resist the change in pH. As shown in the following equation, the buffer capacity, denoted by 'beta', is expressed as the number of moles of acid or base needed to change the pH of a one-liter buffer solution by 1 unit. Here, Ca and Cb indicate the number of moles of acid and base, respectively. Note that dpH represents the change in pH.
In the graph, pH is plotted as a function of the number of moles of base (Cb) added to a weak...

Respiratory Volumes and Capacities01:22

Respiratory Volumes and Capacities

5.7K
The respiratory system is responsible for the intake of oxygen and the expulsion of carbon dioxide from the body. Respiratory volumes describe the volume of air in the lungs at different phases of the respiratory cycle. Tidal volume is the air breathed in and out during normal, quiet breathing. Inspiratory reserve volume is the air that can be forcefully inspired beyond the tidal volume. In contrast, expiratory reserve volume refers to the air that can be expelled from the lungs after a normal...

    Area of Science:

    • Scientific research integrity
    • Academic publishing standards

    Background:

    • Growing concern over a "reproducibility crisis" in research.
    • Increased attention from funding bodies like the National Institutes of Health (NIH) on rigor and reproducibility since 2015.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a case study of a library's initiative to raise awareness and build capacity for research reproducibility.
    • To improve the reproducibility of current and future research within an institution.

    Main Methods:

    • A daylong conference on research reproducibility was organized by library faculty in collaboration with campus research leaders.
    • Post-conference activities included workshops and seminars, attracting a diverse audience from various academic disciplines and institutions.
    • Positive feedback from attendees indicated a need for sustained efforts and ongoing educational opportunities.

    Main Results:

    • Successful engagement across multiple schools and colleges, with participation from national and international attendees.
    • Positive reception of the conference and workshops, generating momentum for continued initiatives.
    • Development of new networking and educational opportunities to sustain the focus on reproducibility.

    Conclusions:

    • Libraries are strategically positioned to spearhead campus-wide educational and capacity-building programs for research reproducibility.
    • Collaborative partnerships are essential for overcoming the costs associated with such initiatives.
    • These efforts have the potential to drive significant positive change institution-wide, improving the overall quality and reliability of research.
