Fluid motion and pressure fields induced by vibrating spheres are frequently used to investigate the function of biological mechanosensory systems and artificial sensors. The calibration of the sphere motion amplitude (displacement, velocity, acceleration), time course and vibration direction often demands expensive equipment. To mitigate this requirement, we have developed a high-quality, low-...

INTRODUCTION The increasing importance accorded the social and behavioural sciences in medical education presents opportunities for developing new and innovative forms of teaching and learning in this field. Yet social and behavioural scientists often feel isolated and marginalized. This research was designed to build a network of such practitioners to share and compare current practice, and to...
