BACKGROUND Government policy in the UK emphasises providing patients with good health information to encourage participation in their health care. Patient information leaflets (PILs) form part of this policy and have been shown to affect patient health outcomes; however, many are poorly written. AIM To describe the PILs in general practice surgeries in Stoke-on-Trent in terms of readability a...

© Multi-tenancy in Cloud-based Collaboration Services David Banks, John Erickson, Michael Rhodes HP Laboratories HPL-2009-17 FRACTAL, Multi-Tenanted, Architecture, Cloud, SaaS, HP In this paper, we argue that increased outsourcing of non-core competencies will drive the demand for a new generation of multi-tenanted cloud-based platforms that address the needs of content-centered collaboration b...

We present and analyze a simple model based on six rate equations for an electrically pumped organic diode laser. The applies to host-guest systems includes Stoke-shifted reabsorption in self-consistent manner. With the validated Alq3:DCM system, we predict threshold short-pulse laser operation. operation characterized by damped relaxation oscillations GHz regime several orders of magnitude lin...

The unsteady leakage flow and heat transfer characteristics of the turbine blade squealer tip was numerically investigated using three-dimensional Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Naiver-Stokes (URANS) standard k-ω turbulence model. numerical simulated coefficients were well agreement with experimental data. accuracy method validated. steady coefficient without film cooling conducted. design at three...

Nanofluid flow over a backward facing step was investigated numerically at low Reynolds number and the heat transfer analyzed reported. Al2O3–H2O nanofluids of different volume fractions (φ = 1–5%) were used as material with uniform flux (UHF) 5000 W/m2 bottom wall for 200–600. The two geometries expansion ratios, 1.9432 3.5. SIMPLE algorithm in finite solver to solve Naiver–Stokes equation. Te...

A numerical investigation of hydrodynamics around a monopile foundation is presented in the paper. An open-source CFD program REEF3D used for present study. The model solves Reynolds-averaged Naiver-Stokes equation with k-w turbulence closure to obtain flow hydrodynamics. code utilizes staggered cartesian grid system. Also, Message Passing Interface (MPI) based parallelization domain decomposit...
