Creativity and its link to epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Creative thinking represents one of our highest‐order cognitive processes, involving multiple cortical structures and an intricate interplay between several cortical and subcortical networks. It results in novel ideas that translate to useful products or concepts. The evolutionary purpose of creativity is therefore apparent, as it advances our

A new-type wheel-legged lunar rover and its mobile performance analysis

open access: yes, 2009
Based on the principle of a double-half-revolution mechanism, a new-style wheel-legged lunar rover was proposed in this paper. Its mobile system includes rover body frame, four identical wheel-legged components and steering brackets, etc.

From Insight to Theory: Advancing Sentiment Evaluation for Diaspora Development Projects

open access: yesNew Directions for Evaluation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article develops the concept of “sentiment evaluation,” drawing on a mid‐term evaluation by the Danish Refugee Council (DRC) of its program supporting Somali diaspora activism in Somaliland. Conducted in 2014, the evaluation revealed that “sentiment,” the emotional, identity‐based attachment linking diaspora actors to their homeland ...

Obstacle-climbing performance simulation analysis of wheel-legged rover

open access: yes, 2010
Simulation technology based on the virtual prototype helps to design the physical prototype and optimize its structure. Taking a double-half-revolution wheel-legged rover as research object, this paper established its simplified three dimensional entity ...

Validation of a smart textile electrocardiographic monitoring device in racehorses during high‐speed exercise

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Exercise‐associated cardiac arrhythmias may contribute to poor performance and sudden cardiac death in horses. Widespread monitoring is limited by device availability and suitability for field use. Objectives To (1) compare electrocardiographic (ECG) quality from a smart textile system (Myant Skiin Equine) with a reference device ...

Experimental and Numerical Investigation on Ignition and Horizontal Flame Spread for Recycled Plastic Pellets

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fires in recycling facilities are known for producing noxious fumes, having high heat release rates (HRRs), being difficult to extinguish and causing significant devastation to business operations. This research aims to provide experimental data and numerical models from which performance‐based designs can be developed for recycling facilities.

An adequacy‐for‐purpose perspective for the environmental sciences

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
The range of datasets, methods, and other tools available for environmental research and decision‐making is rapidly expanding. How should the quality of these tools be evaluated? When are new resources better than existing resources? We advocate an adequacy‐for‐purpose perspective, according to which the quality of environmental research tools depends ...
