Learning from doing: implications of the Barking and Dagenham experience for integrating health and social care

Local government and the NHS in Barking and Dagenham embarked on a bold inititiative in 2001 to integrate health and social care management structures. Although it was not sustained, this local experience is an important source of learning as the search for improved partnership working enters yet another new phase. In particular, it demonstrates that the route to better outcomes depends on mana...

Explaining the Safavid hunting ground Corner and Medallion carpet design, (case study: the Poldi Pezzoli Museum hunting ground Carpet).

Hunting and animal’s combat design of animals in the Safavid era has been reflected in various compositions of carpet designs as they are combined with Floral, Medallion, and Corner and Medallion patterns. One of the significant examples of a hunting ground corner and Medallion carpet are the ones held in the Poldi Pezzoli Museum, Milan. In this carpet, hustling hunting scenes have been depicte...

The Pattern of Ground Deformations due to Circular Tunneling

This paper presents the results of a recent study about the following aspects relevant to tunneling in soft grounds:e) The domain of deformations due to tunneling in soft ground can be specified within a boundary of a parabolic shape. This boundary is defined by a parabolic formula as a function of a central angle which depends on the soil type i.e., either cohesive or cohesionless. This para...
