Introducing Smirk 2
(2009)
We introduce a new open source windows based lecture capture solution called Smirk 2. We describe the motivations for writing the tool, a comparison with other such programs on the market, and explain the mechanism of ...
A molecular dynamics simulation of liquid-vapour-solid system near triple-phase contact line of flow boiling in a microchannel
(2008-02-01)
In this paper, the liquid-vapour-solid system near triple-phase contact line in a microchannel heat sink is studied numerically. Molecular dynamics (MD) method is employed aiming to get a microscopic insight into the complex ...
Nucleosynthesis yields of core-collapse supernovae and hypernovae, and galactic chemical evolution
(2006-10-17)
We present new nucleosynthesis yields as functions of the stellar mass, metallicity, and explosion energy (corresponding to normal supernovae and hypernovae). We apply the results to the chemical evolution of the solar ...
Open-source software in an occupational health application: the case of Heales Medical Ltd
(2005)
In this paper, we provide a case study of a small--company, Heales Medical Ltd., that has chosen to use opensource software to develop an online integrated patient management system. We use this case study to examine some ...
GRAPE-SPH chemodynamical simulation of elliptical galaxies - I : Evolution of metallicity gradients
(2004-01-21)
We simulate the formation and chemodynamical evolution of 124 elliptical galaxies using a GRAPE-SPH code that includes various physical processes that are associated with the formation of stellar systems: radiative cooling, ...
Combining low-level perception with expectations in CHREST
(2003)
The ability of humans to reliably perceive and recognise objects relies on an interaction between information seen in the visual image and prior expectations. We describe an extension to the CHREST computational model which ...
Type Ia supernovae and chemical evolution of galaxies
(Kluwer, 2002)
The cosmic/galactic chemical evolutions have been modeled with the early metal enrichment by Type II supernovae (SNe II) and the delayed enrichment of Fe by Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). However, the exact nature of SN Ia ...
A principled approach to interactive hierarchical non-linear visualization of high-dimensional data
(2001)
Hierarchical visualization systems are desirable because a single twodimensional visualization plot may not be sufficient to capture all of the interesting aspects of complex high-dimensional data sets. We extend an existing ...
