Female genital mutilation (FGM): An analysis of the silences in maternity care experiences of FGM survivors and the silences of health care professionals providing maternity care to FGM survivors
The consequences of female genital mutilation (FGM) during the perinatal period are significant, but the experiences of FGM survivors accessing maternity care are under-reported in the literature. This thesis reports on the analysis of experiences of FGM survivors in maternity care and the …

Homogenization and elastic-plastic transitions in random and FGM microstructures
… We propose to homogenize the elastic response of FGM (functionally graded materials) type microstructure in 3d using the same technique. Since the Hill condition is independent of the microstructure, hence it is counter-intuitive that FGM microstructure can- not be easily homogenized using the …

Healing beyond the scars of female genital mutilation (FGM): the experiences of Somali women in England with therapeutic interventions
… UK who have undergone Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) or FGM reversal. It focuses on participants' perceptions of psychological interventions and, from these experiences, assesses the cultural competence of therapeutic interventions, addressing a significant gap in the existing literature. By …

The Impact of Criminalisation on Female Genital Mutilation in England: From the Perspective of Women and Stakeholders
Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a global problem that stems from gender inequality. Increased migration from countries that perform FGM to England has led to the practice travelling across borders. FGM is subject to heightened political debate and media sensitivity in the England and across the …

Exploring the inalienable rights of children: a case study of FGM to highlight gaps in safeguarding children in the United States
… a case study of female genital mutilation (FGM) in the United States and the United Kingdom. Prosecutions for FGM have been rare and not successful and child abuse cases in the United States continue to rise in spite of a raft of legislation designed to prevent it. It was the intention of …

The continuation of female genital mutilation in Nigeria: a mixed methods study of Igbo men’s views and perpetuating factors
Background/Aim: Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is a harmful practice involving the partial or total cutting of the external female genital organs or other injuries to the female genitalia for non-medical purposes. The views and attitudes of women towards FGM are widely researched and known. …

Evaluation of fecal glucocorticoid metabolite assays for short-term stressors and validation for stress monitoring in African herbivores
… to determine if fecal glucocorticoid metabolite (FGM) measurements are a reliable means of detecting short-term ([greater than] 30 min) stressors in two animal models. Using a double-antibody radioimmunoassay, we quantified FGM levels after short-term stressors and compared them to plasma …

Female Genital Mutilation: Why Does It Continue To Be A Social And Cultural Force?
… to the persistence of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) among Somalis in the Diaspora and in Somalia. Starting with an extensive review of the literature, I identify possible critical factors that sustain FGM. I proceeded to test those factors from the literature against observations from members of …

Analysis of functionally graded material object representation methods
… to modeling Functionally Graded Material (FGM) objects are evaluated based on their memory requirements. Through this research, an information pathway for processing FGM objects based on image processing is proposed. This pathway establishes a clear separation between design of FGM objects, …

A Flexible Galerkin Finite Element Method with an A Posteriori Discontinuous Finite Element Error Estimation for Hyperbolic Problems
A Flexible Galerkin Finite Element Method (FGM) is a hybrid class of finite element methods that combine the usual continuous Galerkin method with the now popular discontinuous Galerkin method (DGM). A detailed description of the formulation of the FGM on a hyperbolic partial differential equation, …
