The complex patterns observed in experiments on suspensions of swimming cells undergoing bioconvection have fascinated biologists, physicists and mathematicians alike for over a century. Theoretical models developed over the last few decades have shown a strong similarity with Rayleigh–Bénard thermal convection, albeit with a richer dynamical behaviour due to the orientational degrees of freedo...

This is a registry report from the Australia and New Zealand Islet and Pancreas Transplant Registry. We report data for all solid organ pancreas transplant activity from inception in 1984 to end of 2016. Data analysis was performed using Stata Software version 14 (StataCorp, College Station, Tex). From 1984 to 2016 a total of 756 solid organ pancreas transplants have been performed in Australia...

Results A total of 738 protocols were published in Trials in 2013/ 2014 and 37 (5%) were included in the review. Group interventions included psychological therapies, lifestyle interventions, parenting programmes and exercise interventions. Sample sizes ranged from 35 to 796, median 112 and all used a 1:1 allocation ratio. Eight trials (22%, 95% CI 9% to 38%) recognised the potential for differ...

Abstract: We proposed a new Global Routing algorithm solving the net ordering problem. The algorithm uses random optimization methods to keep the equality of earlier routed nets and later routed one in passing congested areas. It can find solution independent of net ordering in ...
