The application of the research work of James Clerk Maxwell in electromagnetics to industrial frequency problems.

Published: May 2008

Faraday's work inspired the development of electrical motors and generators. Until Maxwell pointed out the significance of Ampere's Law, there was no rigorous design method for magnetic devices. His interpretation strongly influenced the creation, by others, of the 'magnetic circuit' approach, which became the seminal design technique. This, utilizing the concept of reluctance, led to the design method for magnetic machines that is still widely in use today. The direct solution of the Maxwell equations (less the displacement current term) had to await the development of modern continuum methods to yield the field everywhere in, and around, the devices of interest, and this then permitted the application of the Maxwell stress tensor. This final refinement yielded forces and torques, and this resulted in the accurate prediction of electrical machine performance.

A model of care redesign within rheumatology: A mixed methods approach integrating nurse practitioners and physician assistants.

J Am Assoc Nurse Pract

January 2025

Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, Duke Health Integrated Practice, Duke University Health System, Durham, North Carolina.

Background: Increasing patient demand and clinician burnout in rheumatology practices have highlighted the need for more efficient models of care (MOC). Interprofessional collaboration is essential for improving patient outcomes and clinician satisfaction.

Local Problem: Our current MOC lacks standardization and formal integration of Nurse Practitioners (NPs) and Physician Assistants (PAs), resulting in reduced clinician satisfaction and limited patient access.

Background: Nasal high flow (NHF) has been proposed to sustain high intensity exercise in people with COPD, but we have a poor understanding of its physiological effects in this clinical setting.

Research Question: What is the effect of NHF during exercise on dynamic respiratory muscle function and activation, cardiorespiratory parameters, endurance capacity, dyspnoea and leg fatigue as compared to control intervention.

Study Design And Methods: Randomized single-blind crossover trial including COPD patients.

Background: The implementation of large language models (LLMs), such as BART (Bidirectional and Auto-Regressive Transformers) and GPT-4, has revolutionized the extraction of insights from unstructured text. These advancements have expanded into health care, allowing analysis of social media for public health insights. However, the detection of drug discontinuation events (DDEs) remains underexplored.

Objective: Posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) and moral injury (MI) are possible negative outcomes of combat military service. While PTSS is known to be associated with impaired paternal parenting, no study has examined the association between MI and parenting. This study examined associations between military-related PTSS, MI, and multiple measures of parenting among veteran fathers.
