Measuring the conservation attitudes of local communities towards the African elephant Loxodonta africana, a flagship species in the Mara ecosystem.
Gaining insights into local people's views, values and preferences for different conservation management options are increasingly gaining importance among conservationists and decision-makers. This can be achieved through the...
A Japanese Contact Variety in the North
Yoshiyuki Asahi
Sep 26, 2014
A number of sociolinguistic studies have been conducted to render detailed descriptions of dialect contact phenomenon. One of the major notions in dialect contact studies, according to Trudgill (1986), is dialect...

Transitions between imperfectly ordered crystalline structures
Nigel Wilding
Jan 01, 0001
A model for two-dimensional colloids confined laterally by “structured boundaries” (i.e., ones that impose a periodicity along the slit) is studied by Monte Carlo simulations. When the distance D between the confining walls is...
The transmission line method for modelling laminar flow of liquid in pipelines
Nigel Johnston
May 01, 2012
The transmission line method (TLM) is a very efficient method for dynamic modelling of flow in pipelines, and uses delay elements to represent wave propagation. In this paper an existing TLM model is investigated and shown to...
Structure of a cholinergic cell membrane.
Nigel Unwin
Aug 23, 2022
Cell membranes are complex assemblies of proteins and lipids making transient or long-term associations that have yet to be characterized at a molecular level. Here, cryo-electron microscopy is applied to determine how...
Introductory Comments - UK Research Careers Must Swap Pinch Points for Portfolios
Nigel Thrift
Apr 12, 2010
The UK Government’s Department for Innovation Universities and Skills (DIUS) has a real concern that research careers are not always perceived to be attractive by the best graduates. This concern led to DIUS to ask Professor...

Numerical modelling of unsteady turbulent flow in tubes, including the effects of roughness and large changes in Reynolds number
David Nigel Johnston
Aug 01, 2011
A method has been developed for predicting unsteady turbulent friction in smooth, transitional and rough pipe flow. For transitional and rough pipe flow the effective viscosity at the wall is varied depending on Reynolds number...
Numerical modelling of unsteady turbulent flow in smooth-walled pipes
D Nigel Johnston
Jul 01, 2011
An efficient numerical model for turbulent friction has been developed for smooth-walled pipe flow. The aim was to develop a new approach to the numerical modelling, eliminating some important approximations and sources of...
Accurate simulation estimates of phase behavior in ternary mixtures with prescribed composition
Nigel B Wilding
Aug 01, 2011
This paper describes an isobaric semi-grand canonical ensemble Monte Carlo scheme for the accurate study of phase behavior in ternary fluid mixtures under the experimentally relevant conditions of prescribed pressure...
Coarse-grained depletion potentials for anisotropic colloids
Nigel Wilding, Robert Jack
Aug 01, 2016
When a colloid is mixed with a depletant such as a non-adsorbing polymer, one observes attractive effective interactions between the colloidal particles. If these particles are anisotropic, analysis of these effective...

Improved grand canonical sampling of vapour-liquid transitions
Nigel B. Wilding
Aug 22, 2016
Simulation within the grand canonical ensemble is the method of choice for
accurate studies of first order vapour-liquid phase transitions in model
fluids. Such simulations typically employ sampling that is biased with...
