Nursing Performance in Preventing Adverse Health Events: A Literature Review
International audienceThis study aimed to evaluate the scientific literature on the role of nursing in preventing adverse health events. Nurses play a central role in implementing safety practices, due to their continuous presence and direct contact with patients at different stages of care. A narrative review of the literature was conducted through a search in the BVS, PubMED, and Google Scholar databases, which selected texts published between 2019 and 2024. This review examines nursing performance in adverse event prevention, discussing key strategies, technological advancements, and the importance of continuous professional development. The events which can trigger negative consequences for patients, can be avoided and minimized through strategies and practices widely discussed in the scientific literature. Effective nursing interventions, vigilance, and adherence to best practices significantly reduce hospital-acquired infections, medication errors, and patient falls. Actions such as the promotion of healthy behaviours, early identification of health problems, the performance of preventive exams, adherence to safety protocols, patient education on healthy lifestyles, and involvement in public health initiatives have proven effective in reducing and preventing adverse events. It was possible to verify that Nursing plays a fundamental role in the identification and assessment of risks, implementation of preventive measures, and monitoring and control of adverse events. Contributions to nursing consist of highlighting the importance of nursing, as a category, as well as being constantly updated and trained with regard to patient safety

An Engineering Approximation on the Transformation of Plastic Work into Heat at Various Strain Rates and Stress States
International audienceAccurate estimation of plastic work conversion into heat is crucial for analyzing metals under dynamic deformation. This study investigates DP800 sheet metal specimens across nine strain rates (0.001/s to 150/s) using notched tension (NT) and shear (SH) specimens to explore stress-state effects. Surface strain fields are monitored via digital image correlation (DIC) using a high-speed optical camera, while temperature rise due to plastic dissipation is measured using a high-speed infrared camera. A temperature rise of 170K is observed at 150/s, with minimal rise at 0.001/s. A Hill′48 yield surface combined with a modified Johnson-Cook hardening law accurately predicts force-displacement and strain histories. We compare two methods of treating the conversion of the plastic work into heat: (1) coupled thermo-mechanical simulations, which are accurate but computationally expensive, and (2) treating temperature as an internal state variable, neglecting heat transfer. We then propose a transition function incorporating both strain rate and stress state dependencies, enabling the internal variable method to achieve comparable accuracy to coupled thermo-mechanical simulations with a marginal increase in computational cost over pure mechanical analysis
Creep monitoring of adhesively bonded joints using acoustic emission
International audienceAs an alternative to invasive methods such as welding and riveting, adhesive bonding offers advantages, particularly adapted for the connexion of composite materials. However, its long-term effectiveness in terms of creep behaviour and mechanical resistance remains poorly studied. The work carried out in this study aims at assessing the potential of acoustic emission for creep damage monitoring of an adhesive joint. In order to study more specifically the behaviour of the adhesive joint, investigations were carried out on steel-to-steel adhesively bonded assemblies. The Arcan geometry was used under quasi-static and creep conditions allowing studying three loading modes: tensile, shear, and tensile-shear combinations. Creep investigations were carrued out up to failure and monitored using local displacement sensors and acoustic emission sensors. In this study, only a single adhesive was used, i.e. a methacrylate adhesive used in offshore applications. First, the experimental test setting will be more precisely described. Then, the obtained results will be presented and analyzed using acoustic emission methodology (observing failure modes, comparing displacement measurements with acoustic emission results, studying different acoustic parameters). Finally, a discussion will be raised regarding the ability of acoustic emission to monitor creep of adhesively bonded joints, the influence of the loading mode on the obtained results, and the needed additional developments
