The goal of the flutter shutter is to make uniform motion blur invertible, by a “fluttering” shutter that opens and closes on a sequence of well chosen sub-intervals of the exposure time interval. In other words, the photon flux is modulated according to a well chosen sequence called flutter shutter code. This article provides a numerical method that computes optimal flutter shutter codes in te...

Usually the energy balance equation is used to estimate evapotranspiration. To calculating the potential evapotranspiration for long periods of time (more than a day), soil heat flux is assumed equal to zero. But in a catchment, the energy balance equation should be in terms of actual evapotranspiration is less than the potential. In this state, the amount of soil heat flux is not equal to zero...

The Livingston Paediatric Dose Calculator is presented and its use explained. It may be of benefit in emergency departments that do not regularly see large numbers of children requiring drug treatment.
