The transient wave fields in the vicinity of the cuspoid caustics

TL;DR: In this article, a general formalism is presented for the study of the transient wave fields in the vicinity of caustics of arbitrary complexity, and a general introduction to the subject is presented and explicit results for the cuspoid family of catastrophes are given.
Journal ArticleDOI

Titan imagery with Keck adaptive optics during and after probe entry

TL;DR: In this paper, the Huygens probe descended through Titan's atmosphere and on the days following touchdown, collecting adaptive optics data from the Keck telescope, taken with a solar phase angle range from 0.05� up to 0.8�, with the Sun in the west.
Journal ArticleDOI

Whose Data? Which Rights? Whose Power? A Policy Discourse Analysis of Student Privacy Policy Documents

TL;DR: In this paper, the proliferation of information technology tools in higher education has resulted in an explosion of data about students and their contexts, yet, current policies governing these data are limited.
Journal ArticleDOI

Urinary Biomarkers of Inflammation and Oxidative Stress Are Elevated in Obese Children and Correlate with a Marker of Endothelial Dysfunction

TL;DR: The urinary CRP and 8-isoprostane significantly correlated with the obesity measures and ET-1, inflammatory, and oxidative markers can serve as a noninvasive benchmark for early detection of the risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Centrifuge modelling of hillslope debris flow initiation

TL;DR: In this article, physical modelling of hillslope debris flow initiation was undertaken using the geotechnical beam centrifuge at the University of Dundee, where the results showed that soils with higher silt fraction can sustain a higher increase in pore water pressure and thus a greater reduction in effective stress before failure is induced.
