Cellular automaton supercolliders (2011)
Journal Article

Gliders in one-dimensional cellular automata are compact groups of non-quiescent and non-ether patterns (ether represents a periodic background) translating along automaton lattice. They are cellular automaton analogous of localizations or quasi-loca... Read More about Cellular automaton supercolliders.

Towards constructing one-bit binary adder in excitable chemical medium (2011)
Journal Article

The light-sensitive modification (ruthenium catalysed) of the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction exhibits various excitability regimes depending on the level of illumination. Within a narrow range of applied illumination levels the medium is in a sub-exci... Read More about Towards constructing one-bit binary adder in excitable chemical medium.

Karen Allsopp discusses dialysis, fluid management and pain relief in emergency department patients with chronic and end-stage renal disease

Patients with end-stage renal disease can present to unscheduled care settings for different reasons, but... Read More about Caring for patients with kidney failure.

J-integral and CMOD for external inclined cracks on autofrettaged cylinders (2011)
Journal Article

Autofrettage is a well-known method to increase the load carrying capacity of the pressure vessels. The autofrettage outcomes can be contrary when the imperfections or material discontinuities are on the outer surface. In this study, the influences o...

Clustering and the spatial distribution of organic farming in England and Wales (2011)
Journal Article

Previous geographical research on organic farming suggests a process of aggregation at the regional scale and spatial clustering at the local level, the latter in response to a neighbourhood effect and different socio-cultural factors. However, littl... Read More about Clustering and the spatial distribution of organic farming in England and Wales.

Rapid sequence induction of anaesthesia in UK emergency departments: A national census (2011)
Journal Article

Introduction: Rapid sequence induction of anaesthesia and tracheal intubation (RSI) is an integral part of modern emergency care. Previously, emergency department (ED) RSI has been provided by anaesthetists, but UK emergency physicians are increasing...

An applied ecological framework for evaluating infrastructure to promote walking and cycling: The iconnect study (2011)
Journal Article

Improving infrastructure for walking and cycling is increasingly recommended as a means to promote physical activity, prevent obesity, and reduce traffic congestion and carbon emissions. However, limited evidence from intervention studies exists to s... Read More about An applied ecological framework for evaluating infrastructure to promote walking and cycling: The iconnect study.

Randomised controlled trial of thermostatic mixer valves in reducing bath hot tap water temperature in families with young children in social housing (2011)
