From geometric design to numerical analysis: A direct approach using the Finite Cell Method on Constructive Solid Geometry

open access: yes, 2017
During the last ten years, increasing efforts were made to improve and simplify the process from Computer Aided Design (CAD) modeling to a numerical simulation. It has been shown that the transition from one model to another, i.e.

The identification of Late Holocene bog bursts at Littleton bog, Ireland: ecohydrological changes display complex climatic and non-climatic drivers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In order to clearly understand the response of raised mires to past climate change, it is important to consider the full range of drivers and responses of these ecohydrological archives.

Impact of Darcy–Forchheimer Inertial Drag and Heat Dissipation on Micropolar Hybrid Nanofluid Flow via Expanding Surface

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The hybrid nanofluid integrated with micropolar fluid shows growing interest due to the enhanced thermal performance in microscale devices. These improved properties are due to their greater thermal conductivity and rotational effects. The proposed study assesses the significance of velocity slip on the flow characteristic of micropolar ...

Behaviour of carbon dioxide and water vapour flux densities from a disturbed raised peat bog [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Measurements of carbon dioxide and water vapour flux densities were carried out for a disturbed raised peat bog in the north of the Netherlands during an 18 month continuous experiment. Tussock grass (sp. Molinea caerulae) mainly dominated the vegetation

Flow of Elastoviscous Nanofluid Through an Elongating Surface With Dissipative Heat: A Confluent Hypergeometric Solution

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thermal energy transport likely through polymer extrusion, cooling of metallic plates, and chemical processing equipment relating to the flow of viscoelastic nanofluid has a greater role in engineering because of its elastic characteristics.

Regional patterns and controlling factors in plant species composition and diversity in Canadian lowland coastal bogs and laggs [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2016
Inventories of natural assemblages of plant species are critical when planning ecological restoration of bogs. However, little is known about the regional variation in plant communities at the margins (laggs) of bogs, even though they are an integral ...

Game‐based learning for undergraduate consolidation: A qualitative study of how game‐based learning provides much more than knowledge acquisition

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Game‐based learning (GBL) is increasingly used in medical education to supplement traditional didactic learning methods. Adult learners in particular may benefit from GBL, given the autonomous and iterative nature of a well‐designed educational game.

Vascular plant species response to warming and elevated carbon dioxide in a boreal peatland

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2020
Peatlands store a significant amount of terrestrial organic carbon in plant biomass and soils. The Spruce and Peatland Responses Under Changing Environments (SPRUCE) project is a warming and elevated carbon dioxide (eCO _2 ) experiment designed to test ...
