Frayed Rope and Resilient Threads: Fijian Healthcare and the COVID‐19 Pandemic

Asia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In April 2021, Fiji faced international scrutiny due to ‘horrific’ hospital conditions, including staff and patients lacking food, non‐operational operating theatres, and critical shortages of beds, medicine, and equipment. After successfully avoiding a major outbreak in 2020, a sudden surge in COVID‐19 cases in 2021 overwhelmed the public ...

Moving on Project: Explore the Transition to Adulthood With Young People With a Learning Disability Using Inclusive Research Methods

British Journal of Learning Disabilities, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background For young people with a learning disability, transitioning to adulthood is a complex process, frequently resulting in limited choice and poor life outcomes. Existing research focuses on specific aspects of transitioning rather than young people's lives as a whole.

Volume Quantization with Flexible Singularities for Hexahedral Meshing

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a novel algorithm for quantization and subsequent hexahedral mesh generation from seamless volumetric maps. Quantization is the process of choosing integers that represent the numbers of hexahedral elements to be placed in each region of the volume, and transforming the seamless map into an integer‐grid map matching that choice ...

Dynamic Wave Trains: A Procedural Approach to Spatially Varying Ocean Synthesis

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
In this paper, we present a high performance procedural model capable of synthesizing and rendering a virtually infinite ocean. Our method exhibits spatial variations as the orientations, speed and choppiness of the waves is parametrized for each frequencies and each point in space. The provided visual abstract exhibits a sunset rendering of a large 40

Listening to Young People on Childhood Death: A Youth‐Focused Participatory Approach to Children's Palliative and End‐of‐Life Research and Policymaking

Children &Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past three decades, children and youth (‘young people’) have been increasingly conceptualised as moral agents with rights and capacities to be meaningfully engaged in decisions affecting them. While evidence suggests that social spaces are opening to prioritise listening to these voices, gaps still exist.
