Change of Radial Gap Value in Axial Compressors at Modes of Turbine Plant Heating and Shut-Down by A. S. Laskine, V. V. Isaev

“…At the same time it is necessary to exclude stator touching by rotor blades.ANSYS complex has been used to reduce a gap by 1.5–2.0-fold in comparison with the existing one.It has become possible to obtain dependences of radial displacement of peripheral blade edge and stator ring element, located above it, on heating time.Practical and research value of the paper is in the development of a methodology for calculation of heating (cooling), which can be applied while designing axial turbine machines and evaluating the possible minimization of radial gap in the case that excludes touching.…”

Practices of Congolese Mental Health and Psychosocial Support Providers: A Qualitative Study on Gaps and Obstacles by Astrid ter Wiel, Henny Slegh

“…Further, the data show two main obstacles to improve current practices: persistent cultural taboos and misconceptions about what mental health and sexual health problems are and how they come to exist, and a very limited referral system. The gaps and obstacles illustrate the complex context in Eastern DRC, they highlight the importance of locally tailored education and training, and they stress the need for system changes to improve access to and quality of MHPSS. …”
