Technical Section: A review of virtual environments for training in ball sports
TL;DR: This review of the state-of-the-art virtual environments for ball sports focuses on just ball sports, and was carried out as part of a current project developing training tools for rugby.
Radiation effects on the flow near the stagnation point of a stretching sheet
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the radiation effects on the flow of an incompressible viscous fluid over a flat sheet near the stagnation point and showed that a boundary layer is formed and its thickness increases with the radiation, velocity and temperature parameters and decreases when the Prandtl number is increased.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Implementation and Validation of a Virtual Environment for Training Powered Wheelchair Manoeuvres
TL;DR: A cost-effective virtual reality (VR) application that takes advantage of consumer level VR hardware and has the potential to develop the competency of a wheelchair user whilst avoiding the risks inherent to training in the real world.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Cost-Effective Virtual Environment for Simulating and Training Powered Wheelchairs Manoeuvres
TL;DR: Wheelchair-Rift is described, a cost effective prototype simulator that makes use of the Oculus Rift head mounted display and the Leap Motion hand tracking device that has been assessed for face validity by a panel of experts from a local Posture and Mobility Service.
Journal ArticleDOI
Double-Diffusive Natural Convection in a Differentially Heated Wavy Cavity Under Thermophoresis Effect
TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical analysis is made for thermophoretic transport of small particles through the convection in a differentially heated square cavity with a wavy wall, and the governing gas-particle partial divergence is established.
