We consider the numerical evaluation of the Evans function, a Wronskian-like determinant that arises in the study of the stability of travelling waves. Constructing the Evans function involves matching the solutions of a linear ordinary differential equation depending on the spectral parameter. The problem becomes stiff as the spectral parameter grows. Consequently, the Gauss–Legendre method ha...

^He death of Herbert Lavington Evans, of Goring-on-Thames, April 9th, at the age of 65, due to acute pneumonia following ^fluenza is a grave sorrow to his old Bristol Medical School fiends. He was educated at Clifton College, UniversityCollege, Bristol, Edinburgh University and at Guy s Hospital. He was a Clinical Assistant at the Bristol Eye Hospital before he settled J1 Practice at Goring-on-...

Complex ideas like evolution-which run counter to common, but mistaken, intuitive knowledge are challenging, both for exhibit developers and for the evaluation and research teams who assess the impact of exhibitions. It is always difficult to document measurable changes in deep conceptual understanding following a single visit to an exhibition (Allen, 2008, p. 58); Is this even possible with co...

We discuss the methods of Evans and Moshonov [Bayesian Analysis 1 (2006) 893–914, Bayesian Statistics and Its Applications (2007) 145–159] concerning checking for prior-data conflict and their relevance to the method proposed in this paper.

The photocatalytic degradation of Evans Blue has been studied under visible light in the presence of N-doped ZnO as a photocatalyst. N-doped ZnO was prepared by the solvent free method. The photocatalytic activity of ZnO and N-doped ZnO was compared by investigating the photodegradation of Evans Blue dye under visible light. The effect of different parameters like pH, concentration of the Dye, ...
