Being part of the psychiatric practice, civil detention of patients in hospitals against their will remains difficult to assess clinically in regards to the role of social protection desired by our society. In this paper, the authors promote a broader understanding of the concept of danger that grounds the application of this civil commitment regime in order to fulfill both duty of intervention and promotion of values of beneficence and protection of patients.

The impact of deicer and anti-icer use on plant communities in stormwater detention basins: Characterizing salt stress and phytoremediation potential.

We present the results of a 1-year study that quantified salt levels in stormwater, soils, and plant tissues from 14 stormwater detention basins across Northern VA in an above-average snow year. We characterize (1) the level of salt stress plants experience, (2) the extent to which current plant communities feature salt tolerant species, and (3) the capacity of these species to phytoremediate soils and reduce the impacts of deicer and anti-icer use. Our results suggest that detention basin vegetation experience a range of salt stress levels that depend on drainage area type (roads: moderate to high > parking lots: low to moderate > pervious areas: none).

Current urban challenges related to local urban flooding require effective preventive measures. This applies particularly to various methods of stormwater retention, including forced retention, and solutions that enable cooperation between small individual retention systems and drainage systems. Therefore, this study presents the results of research on the hydraulic efficiency of controllable systems, which combine the features of an on-site tank with the solutions of network tanks to increase the retention of stormwater in drainage systems.

Managing floods in interconnected nonurban and urban areas of arid regions prone to flash floods requires a more dynamic and integrated approach than traditional linear methods. In this regard, this study proposes a novel multi-stage decision-making framework which reshapes the traditional cascade approach to flood management by addressing the interdependencies between upstream and downstream regions. The proposed cyclic decision-making process involves five main steps: First, the Hydraulic and Hydrological (H/H) conditions in urban and nonurban areas were modeled using the SWMM.

Background: Three-dimensional (3D) printing produces objects by adding layers of material rather than mechanically reducing material. This production technology has several advantages and has been used in various medical fields to, for instance, improve the planning of complicated operations, customize medical devices, and enhance medical education. However, few existing studies focus on the adoption and the aspects that could influence or hinder the adoption of 3D printing.

Article Synopsis
- - Deep stormwater drainage tunnels in Korea are vital for managing urban flooding, especially with increased extreme weather caused by climate change, consisting of an entrance reservoir, a circular culvert, and an outlet to a river.
- - Concerns exist about the drainage capacity of these tunnels due to factors like intense rainfall, sudden changes in flow dynamics, and trapped air pockets, which can hinder efficiency, prompting the use of advanced 3D simulations to explore improvements.
- - The study suggests that smaller culvert diameters can enhance drainage by reducing shock wave impacts, challenging the belief that larger diameters are always better, and recommends design changes to reduce trapped air pockets for optimal performance.
