Partially separated flow around masts and sails
No full textA variable camber aerofoil and a miniature boundary layer traverse unit have been designed and built to investigate the nature of flow around two-dimensional, highly cambered, sail-like aerofoil sections with circular masts. Data has been obtained in the form of static pressure distributions and boundary layer velocity profiles over representative ranges of Reynolds number, camber ratio, incidence angle, mast diameter/chord ratio and mast angle for both NACA a = 0.8 and NACA 63 mean-line camber distributions. All flow regimes present have been identified and related to the salient model and flow parameters. Using knowledge gained from the experimental results, a new partially separated flow theory was developed based on a discretized vortex/source panel technique. Comparison between experimental and theoretically predicted static pressure distributions showed excellent agreement.</p

Properties of rare earth doped thin film dielectric layers for upconversion laser waveguides
No full textEncountering Berlant part one: concepts otherwise
No full textIn Part 1 of ‘Encountering Berlant’, we encounter the promise and provocation of Lauren Berlant's work. In 1000-word contributions, geographers and others stay with what Berlant's thought offers contemporary human geography. They amplify an encounter with their work, demonstrating how a concept, idea, or style disrupts something, opens up a new possibility, or simply invites thinking otherwise. The encounters range across the incredible body of work Berlant left us with, from the ‘national sentimentality’ trilogy through to recent work on negativity. Varying in form and tone, the encounters exemplify and enact the inexhaustible plenitude of Berlant's thought: fantasy, the case, love, impasse, feel tanks, slow death, ellipses, gesture, attrition, intimate public, ambivalence, style

What am I doing and why Philosophy to practice -personal observations about coaching rugby
Get PDFThis paper is a reflective account about a personal approach to coaching rugby by the first author, Stuart Wilkinson. His ongoing academic research in 2010 has prompted a fresh consideration of his coaching style which is shared interactively with his players and staff in the world of professional rugby league. This has brought about some deeper questioning of the reasons behind his approach to coaching which has led to a formulation of his coaching philosophy. His coaching philosophy; „a caring guide to athlete self-discovery and self-improvement‟ may be regarded as a summative statement of his beliefs and values at this moment in time, to coach others in order that they might play the game well. The paper is written largely in first person, a trait of its reflective nature and incorporates some data from an interview with a player. The paper concludes that if players are equipped with the confidence and knowledge to question their own actions they may be able to self-correct their errors on the field of play and see more options to act independently instead of relying upon directives from the coach at the sideline
