Pear shaped: responding to adversity.
I went home from my study group and I thought I’d write a song A light hearted little anecdote to carry us along A humorous look at training and the eportfolio Just how do we get our trainees to learn all the things we know? But events that followed after came and stopped me in my tracks And our talks of authenticity had me thinking back Life isn’t always funny when we’re in the here and now An...
متن کاملComputer simulations of hard pear-shaped particles.
We report results obtained from Monte Carlo simulations investigating mesophase formation in two model systems of hard pear-shaped particles. The first model considered is a hard variant of the truncated Stone-expansion model previously shown to form nematic and smectic mesophases when embedded within a 12-6 Gay-Berne-like potential [R. Berardi, M. Ricci, and C. Zannoni, ChemPhysChem 7, 443 (20...
متن کاملLearning to Program - From Pear-Shaped to Pairs
The consistently high failure rate in Queensland University of Technology’s introductory programming subject reflects a similar dilemma facing other universities worldwide. Experiments were conducted to quantify the effectiveness of collaborative learning on introductory level programming students over a number of semesters, replicating previous studies in this area. A selection of workshops in...
متن کاملComputer simulation of bistable switching in a nematic device containing pear-shaped particles
We study the microscopic basis of bistable switching of a confined liquid crystal via Monte Carlo simulations of hard pear-shaped particles. Using both dielectric and dipolar field couplings to this intrinsically flexoelectric fluid, it is shown that pulsed fields of opposing polarity can be used to switch between the vertical and hybrid aligned states. Further, it is shown that the field-susce...
متن کاملA new class of regulatory genes underlying the cause of pear-shaped tomato fruit.
A common, recurring theme in domesticated plants is the occurrence of pear-shaped fruit. A major quantitative trait locus (termed ovate) controlling the transition from round to pear-shaped fruit has been cloned from tomato. OVATE is expressed early in flower and fruit development and encodes a previously uncharacterized, hydrophilic protein with a putative bipartite nuclear localization signal...
