Evaluating the African arid corridor hypothesis: A meta‐analysis including the phylogenetic and biogeographical history of Sesamothamnus

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise We examined the African arid corridor (AAC) disjunction pattern of vascular plants between northeastern and southwestern Africa in the context of geological and climatic events since the late Miocene. We developed a phylogenetic and biogeographical framework for the arid‐adapted genus Sesamothamnus (Pedaliaceae), a classic example of ...

Development and characterization of cotton elastic yarns to improve wear comfort of bi-elastic thin fabrics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Clothing is our second skin, beyond the aesthetic function it primarily has the protective function. One cannot speak about clothing design without mentioning comfort and we may even say that they are not dissociable.

TENSILE PROPERTIES OF SOME TECHNICAL CORE SPUN YARNS DEVELOPED FOR PROTECTIVE TEXTILES

open access: yes, 2015
Today high performance fibres with uniquely inherent properties are used for many technical areas such as resistance to heat and flame, chemicals, stabs and cuts; protective clothing and gloves for firefighters, military and industry. In this study, some technical core-spun yams, which can be used in the development of protective textiles were produced

Student perspectives on AI‐supported formative assessment in pharmacology

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims High‐quality feedback is crucial for helping medical students understand and apply core concepts of pharmacology, yet personalized feedback is resource‐intensive to produce. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers a potential solution, but little is known about students' perspectives on AI‐generated feedback.

Effect of blend composition on tensile properties of blended Dref-III yarns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Blended Dref-III yarns have been prepared by using same stock of blended materials (polyester-viscose) both in core and sheath. Stress-strain curves of both fibre and yarn (100% polyester and viscose) have been used for the prediction of both ring and ...

‘It's all very well having a diverse curriculum, but if there is no curriculum, it can be as diverse as you like’: Precarity and decolonising in the neoliberal UK higher education system

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Drawing upon interview research across two academic departments as part of the early stages of a ‘decolonise the curriculum’ initiative at a Southern UK university, this study highlights a growing gulf between policy and practice in efforts to address systemic racial inequalities in UK universities. A reliance upon precarious labour, a culture
