Axial mixing with spiral-shaped channel micromixer
Journal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2015 Axial fluctuations in carrier concentrations cause detection noise during chemical analysis using flowing carrier streams. Here, we report a method of axial mixing using serially cascaded microchannel units with branches and junctions.

Is the well‐known phrase ‘small is beautiful’ true of small transnational education institutions?
British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract The purpose of this research is to consider the potential attractiveness of operating a small international branch campus (IBC). Drawing upon resource‐based and legitimacy theories, we examine the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats associated with the business model that is based on having a small institution size.

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Curriculum decolonisation has become a prominent feature of equity agendas in UK higher education, yet there remains limited empirical and theoretical work on how such initiatives are evaluated, particularly within business schools. This paper presents one of the first multi‐institutional empirical studies examining how UK business schools ...

Smoothing metrics on closed Riemannian manifolds through the Ricci flow
, 2011 Under the assumption of the uniform local Sobolev inequality, it is proved that Riemannian metrics with an absolute Ricci curvature bound and a small Riemannian curvature integral bound can be smoothed to having a sectional curvature bound.

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Gamification is characterized by the use of gaming elements in a non‐gaming context. This concept is commonly applied in teaching to create a more meaningful and activating learning environment. The major aim of this study was to compare possible effects of gamification on a traditional interactive teaching concept in a biochemistry course on ...
