The sequential fully implicit (SFI) scheme was introduced (Jenny et al. 2006) for solving coupled flow and transport problems. Each time step SFI consists of an outer loop, in which there are inner Newton loops to implicitly sequentially solve the pressure sub-problems. In standard SFI, sub-problems usually solved with tight tolerances at every iteration. This can result wasted computations tha...

Background: In the management of patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), it is utmost importance to accurately identify lupus flares. There a conceptual consensus definition flares [1]; however, instruments used in clinical trials, such as SELENA Flare Index (SFI) are too cumbersome apply daily practice. The SLE disease activity score (SLE-DAS) validated continuous measure higher sens...

This article presents a synthesis of two PhD studies Support Family Intervention (SFI) in Finland. is service which volunteer families provide support and respite care to children parents who are coping with range psycho-social challenges by looking after the for one weekend month. The aim this develop child-centred programme theory (CCPT) SFI that combines meta-ethnography-based underpinning u...

Furrow irrigations dominate row-crop irrigation scenarios in many regions worldwide. In this study, corn (Zea mays L.) yield and evapotranspiration (ET) an all-furrow (FI) were compared against applied through alternate furrows (SFI, skip-furrow irrigation) rainfed (RF) systems on farm-scale fields 2017 2019 {corn phases of a soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]–corn rotation} clay soil the Lower M...

Sciatic functional index (SFI) as a behavioral method was used to assess the functional recovery following experimentally-induced various injuries in the sciatic nerve, spinal cord, and brain. In the present study, the functional recovery after induction of injury in the sciatic nerve was investigated in rats using SFI. Twenty-four rats were divided into three groups including sham-operated (SS...

I will describe my research interests in the following sequence: (a) the substantive phenomenon I wish to explain is the emergence of banking in Renaissance Florence; (b) the evolutionary process exemplified in this case is speciation—in particular, speciation viewed “metabolically” as the altered concatenation of multiple production networks; (c) modeling the dynamics of multiple networks, to ...
