Western Australian Aboriginal young women and community representatives identify barriers to school attendance and solutions to school non-attendance

open access: yesThe Australian Journal of Indigenous Education, 2022
The barriers to school attendance that affect young Aboriginal people in Australia are diverse, immense and well documented; however, except for a handful of studies, Aboriginal students’ voices receive no platform for policy makers to hear them.

The single star path to Be stars [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2020
Context. Be stars are rapidly rotating B main sequence stars that show line emission due to an outflowing disc. By studying the evolution of rotating single star models, we can assess their contribution to the observed Be star populations. Aims. We identify the main effects that cause single stars to approach critical rotation as functions of initial ...

Utilization of a Novel Negative Pressure Platform Wound Dressing on Surgical Incisions: A Case Series

open access: yesPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2021
Background:. Closed incision negative pressure therapy (ciNPT) has been shown to improve wound healing for patients at high risk for wound complications. Current devices consist of opaque interface dressings that do not allow ongoing visual evaluation of

A Phenomenographic Study of Adolescents’ Conceptions of Health Information Appraisal as a Critical Component of Adolescent Health Literacy

open access: yesActa Paedagogica Vilnensia, 2020
This paper reports on a health literacy study that explored adolescents’ conceptualizations of health information appraisal as a social practice in Latvia. The study was guided by phenomenography, a qualitative research approach used to describe people’s

On stars and Steiner stars. II [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Twentieth Annual ACM-SIAM Symposium on Discrete Algorithms, 2009
A {\em Steiner star} for a set $P$ of $n$ points in $\RR^d$ connects an arbitrary center point to all points of $P$, while a {\em star} connects a point $p\in P$ to the remaining $n-1$ points of $P$. All connections are realized by straight line segments. Fekete and Meijer showed that the minimum star is at most $\sqrt{2}$ times longer than the minimum

Gravitoastronomy with neutron stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Recent advances in gravitational wave detectors mean that we can start to make astrophysically important statements about the physics of neutron stars based on observed upper limits to their gravitational luminosity.

Probing the composition of sub-millisecond rotating compact stars by r-modes instability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate the implications of the r-modes instability on the composition of a compact star rotating at a sub-millisecond period. In particular, the only viable astrophysical scenario for such an object, wich might present inside the Low Mass X-ray ...

Full-thickness Skin Micro-columns within a Dermal Matrix: A Novel Method for “Donor-free” Skin Replacement

open access: yesPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2020
Summary:. Split-thickness skin graft has been the standard in the coverage of large full-thickness skin defects. However, donor sites can be associated with significant pain and scarring.
