Mesh generation for implicit geometries
… meshes for geometries specified by implicit functions. An initial mesh is iteratively improved by solving for a force equilibrium in the element edges, and the boundary nodes are projected using the implicit geometry definition. Our algorithm generalizes to any dimension and it typically …

Exploring acceptability and feasibility of a wearable device to facilitate home phototherapy treatment for newborn jaundice in rural Scotland: an interpretive description study.
… treatment. Study participants described a 'one-size-fits-all' focus for newborn jaundice, centred around quickly reducing serum bilirubin levels. Furthermore, healthcare professionals assumed that parents would agree that the use of overhead phototherapy devices was worthwhile despite the …

Further evidence and understanding for the contrast signal theory of parallel processing in visual search
… logarithmic RT variations depending on set size and target-distractor similarity. The Contrast Signal Theory (CST) of visual search was proposed to account for these variations and elucidate the potential processing mechanism during the parallel stage of visual search. The core proposals of …

Size Function Based Mesh Relaxation
… a finite element mesh to more closely match a size function. The main contributions include new methods for performing size function based mesh relaxation, as well as an algorithm for measuring the performance of size function based mesh relaxation methods.</p>

Local scour at bridge piers
… piers with sediment transport. Three empirical functions which relate the equilibrium depth of scour with approach velocity, flow depth and sediment size were obtained for uniform sediments. The effects of armouring and sediment sizes were also investigated for non-uniform sediments. The …
