Avro Anson byl britský dvoumotorový letoun smíšené konstrukce, který byl užíván jak britským Royal Air Force v době druhé světové války, tak i civilními letectvy mnoha zemí světa.

Vývoj
První Avro 652 (imatrikulace G-ACRM, "Avalon") byl zalétán 7. ledna 1935 s dvojicí hvězdicových motorů Armstrong Siddeley Cheetah VI s výkonem po 213 kW. Krátce poté vzlétl druhý civilní exemplář (G-ACRN, "Ava") a do roku 1939 byly oba stroje dopravcem Imperial Airways nasazeny na linku Croydon-Brindisi.

První prototyp vojenského stroje Avro 652A (sériové číslo K4771) vzlétl 24. března roku 1935 se stejnými pohonnými jednotkami, jako jeho civilní předchůdce. Interiér byl upraven pro tříčlennou osádku, nesl výzbroj jednoho pevného kulometu ráže 7,7 mm v přídi a jednoho pohyblivého v mechanicky otočné střelecké věži Armstrong Whitworth na hřbetě trupu. Dalším rozdílem oproti civilní variantě byly závěsy pro 164 kg pum a záměna kruhových oken v bocích trupu za velká obdélníková. V prosinci roku 1935 obdržel bojové jméno Anson Mk.I.

První sériový Avro 652A Anson Mk.I (K6152) se od prototypu značně odlišoval. V motorových gondolách byly instalovány pohonné jednotky Armstrong Siddeley Cheetah IX o výkonu po 246 kW a zasklení boků kabiny se protáhlo v jediném proskleném pásu až ke vstupním dveřím. Zvětšeno bylo i rozpětí vodorovné ocasní plochy.

Dne 14. srpna 1941 zalétal pilot RAF J. B. Douglas z letiště St. Hubert Airport první kanadský licenčně vyrobený Anson Mk.II s hvězdicovými sedmiválci Jacobs L6MB po 242 kW s dvoulistými vrtulemi. Ještě v roce 1941 bylo dodáno 88 kusů, v roce 1942 pak 1344 a v roce ukončení výroby 1943 ještě 400 strojů. Následující verzí se stal Anson Mk.III produkovaný ve Velké Británii. Kanadská výroba pokračovala verzí Anson Mk.IV s instalovanou dvojici motorů Wright Whirlwind R-760-E1 po 220 kW a verzemi Anson Mk.V a Anson Mk.VI s motory Pratt & Whitney R-985-AN-12B, nebo AN-14B po 230 kW. Kanadskou výrobu zajišťovaly firmy Federal Aircraft Ltd. a Canadian Car & Foundry Co. Ltd. v Montrealu, de Havilland Aircraft of Canada Ltd. v Torontu, Victory Aircraft Ltd. v Maltonu, Ottawa Car & Aircraft Co. Ltd. v Ottawě a McDonald Bros. ve Winnipegu.

Avro Anson C.Mk.X byla dopravní neozbrojená varianta se silnější podlahou kabiny. V roce 1944 vznikly ještě z vojenské zakázky verze Anson C.Mk.XI s motory Cheetah 19 o výkonu po 290 kW a Anson C.Mk.XII s motory Cheetah 15 po 313 kW s vyšší kabinovou částí trupu.

Společnost Avro nabídla v roce 1945 Anson C.Mk.XII pro poválečnou civilní dopravu, kde poté létal jako Avro 652A Mk.19 (také Avro 19 Series 1) s kabinou pro 9 cestujících. První vzlet byl proveden v lednu 1945 (G-AGNI). Po nahrazení dřevěného křídla kovovým vznikla dopravní varianta Avro 19 Series 2.

Nasazení

Jako první jimi byla vyzbrojena v únoru 1936 peruť č. 48 v Manstonu ve variantě Mk I. Měl sloužit především k leteckému hlídkování nad pobřežím a k bombardování. Nakonec se ukázalo, že se jedná o poměrně dobrý letoun pro účely pozorování, přepravy i jako civilní letadlo.

Prvním zahraničním uživatelem se v listopadu 1936 stalo RAAF, které odebralo 12 Ansonů. Později byla zakázka rozšířena na 48 letounů. Tři Ansony zakoupilo Finsko, jeden odebral Egypt a dva Irsko. Turecko objednalo 25 strojů, ale v důsledku vypuknutí II. světové války dostalo jen šest. 19 z původních tureckých Ansonů bylo dodáno do Řecka, odkud se několik dostalo do Egypta.

Ansony se zapojily do druhého světového válečného konfliktu hned od jeho počátku v síle 12 letek. Jeden od 500. letky bombardoval německou ponorku již 5. září 1939 a v témže měsíci jiný Anson od 269. squadrony sestřelil Dornier Do 18. V původní roli pobřežního protiponorkového hlídkového letounu Ansony sloužily do roku 1942.

Další významnou úlohu plnily ve výcviku osádek vícemotorových letounů. V roce 1939 bylo objednáno 1500 cvičných Ansonů pro výcvik letců ve Velké Británii, Kanadě a Austrálii, kde byla následně zahájena licenční výroba. USAAF zakoupilo v roce 1943 50 Ansonů Mk.II s motory Jacobs R-915-7 po 242 kW a používalo je pod označením Federal AT-20 Anson (43-8181 až 43-8230).

Byl vyráběn v různých verzích až do roku 1952 a dodáván do mnoha zemí světa.

Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust is urging members of the public and patients to create their own personal safety plan as part of a drive to reduce the risk of suicide.
We are encouraging use of the Stay Alive app, which has dedicated information about services available in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland. It guides people through creating a personal safety plan. There is also a paper version for those who do not have access to mobile phone or tablet technology.
Thousands of LPT patients will be encouraged to download the app. It is also available free of charge to members of the public, and friends, relatives and professionals of those thought to be at risk. Most people who die by suicide have never been referred to mental health services.
The app guides gives general advice about why someone who might be experiencing suicidal thoughts should choose to stay safe instead of taking their own life. It also guides them through making a personal safety plan by prompting them to think about how they will calm themselves, where they can go to stay safe, who they should talk to, and who to seek help from.
They can even include photographs to remind them of reasons to stay safe.
We will encourage them to complete this plan when they feel able to plan for the future, and then to refer to it at times of crisis. It will be confidential, and will not be shared with anyone else.
The app contains information which will also be useful to those concerned about a friend, relative or client. One of the key messages is to talk about what is on the person's mind – asking them whether they are thinking of suicide can feel difficult but is likely to be helpful.
The app has been licensed from Brighton-based Grassroots Suicide Prevention, and has sources of help within Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.
The paper version will be available through LPT clinicians, or download here, print out, complete and keep safe until you are approaching a crisis.


The Dragon population dwindled by a thread, as a war with the elves wiped them nearly to extinction, but a blood pact was made to end the suffering and war. In the pact it was said that each Dragon was to have one elf rider and their souls would be linked to one another, Dwarves wanted nothing to do with the riders, and so gave no dwarven riders. It was like this for 4000 years until humans appeared.
Their leader, Vandar, demanded that the Humans be aloud to become riders and, with much fear, the Elves aloud it.
Humans were trained in the Arts of Magic, swordsmanship and how to work with their dragon. There were soon over 10,000 riders and Dragons, forming he Order of the Riders. The Order became the protectors of the land and were thought Invinsible, until one Rider lost his Dragon. He pleaded to the Order to give him a new Dragon. when they refused he stole a hatching and killed its rider before their bond was formed. He, along with his best fiend, formed a new Order named the Forsworn, which killed off the dragon riders who refused to join them, thus starting a war.
The War of the Riders.
If you are a Dragon Rider choose an Affiliation: Order of the Riders, Forsworn, or Rouge.
Soldiers, Mages and Warlocks must choose to either serve the Forsworn, the Order of the Riders or Rouge.
Weapons: you may choose your own type of weapon as long as it stays within reason. All riders (forsworn and rouge included) must have their weapons be the same color as their Dragon and have some kind of enchantment on them (as long as it stays within reason).
Apperence: tall, brown hair, blue eyes, well built.
Aegob was on ae riding him through the sky.
"Lets go home nnow" aegob said to ae.
-Enchantment:Burning blade(When used by Xan the blade lights up(fire)) Also absorbs spells that hit it.
Arthas sat perched on Nivavrel, his saphire wings tucked next to his sides and over arthas's legs. Arthas drew his blue sword Vir'Roc and unleashed a heavy sigh.
"will this war ever end?"
Ae lands and I pat him on the head. Ae makes a lot noise from deep inside his throat which i identify as a purr telling me he's happy.I dismount.
"Come on lets go get some food." i lead him to some food for him then go and get some for myself.
Xan stood above the man, Xir'anth'al's massive form behind him. "My dragon says I should kill you. She can be rather visious at times, as you already know. Shes hungry, and, unfortunately for you, I dont have any use for you."
"No! No get aw- ARRRRAAEEEEGHHH"
Hmph, he was scrawny. Not much of a meal. Xir muttered, of course, no one else could hear her, she was speaking into his mind. Xan laughed slightly, "Well, you killed every thing else." Xir blinked, thinking That I did... Xan climbed onto the dragon's back, and she took to the air, giant wings flaping. They travled to the cave they had been using, Xir lying down, and lifting a wing slighty, Xan leaned against her, and the wing came down, covering him. It had been a long day, and they were both tired.
Xan and Xir flew through the air, the clouds were light, yet they still hampered visibility. Xir banked to the left, landing in a forest near a river. She lowered her head into the water, gulping it down noisly. Moments later they were in the sky. The clouds had cleared. Xan looked down. There was a blue dragon on the ground below them. Xir saw it, and began to circle lazily through the sky.
Nivavrel opened his gaping maw, unleashing a torrent of flames on a Forsworn rider. Arthas unhooked his legs from the saddle and dove off his dragon, Vir'roc in hand. He landed harshly on another Forsworn, driving his gleaming blue blade through his heart, then he jumped straight up and grabbed Nivavrel's leg, then hoisted himself up onto his back.
"Shivar nil gan Verna!" yelled Arthas, unleashing a green light striking yet another forsworn in the chest, killing him , and later his dragon.
"Enough!" He yelled."we end this now!" and with that Nivavrel began to dive towards the soldiers on the ground, burning the soldiers to cinders.
The dragon hadnt taken notice of him, they had trailied if for quite some time. Soon the blue dragon had found forsworn, and fought them. It's rider looked skilled, and Xan thought, looked like he would prove to be a problem. The reamining soldiers were soon killed, and the dragon set down for a second. Xir went into a dive, landing with a thud on the ground. She roared at the other dragon.
The marauder camp was still mostly asleep for the most part. Only a few unlucky guards shivered in the cold mountain air. The dawn sun was only just rising.
Only one of the guards heard the dragon coming, and he was too late to do anything about it. With a scream, he was enveloped my a wall of flame as Nar'Kath swooped down from the misty sky.
The camp was suddenly alive as the raiders ran from their huts.
As Nar'Kath came around for a second pass, a bowman ran out and took aim.
"I wouldn't" he heard from behind.
As the man turned, Drakus slashed his neck with his axe.
Nar'Kath scorched another stretch of ground between the huts, instantly incinerating the marauders in his path.
With a powerful throw of his axe, Ralin took down another archer before he could fire. As he walked over to retrieve the weapon, a raider sprang from inside a hut, his war-axe held high over his head ready to strike. Stepping into the swing, Ralin blocked the blow with his left hand and thrust his right into the warrior's throat. As he tightened his grip, the raider's face turned white from Drakus's icy grip. As the dead warrior fell to the ground, Nar'Kath touched down into the middle of the camp.
"This is the last of them. . . . after we're paid we'll have to move on," said Drakus as he retrieved his axe.
"Perhaps we should return to the high country," said Nar'Kath; his voice as much a part of Ralin's mind now as his own.
Ralin stopped and gazed out towards the south for a moment as Nar'Kath devoured one of the fallen raiders. The distant valleys, forests, and rivers that lay below beckoned him. He had always wondered what it was like there. A place where it wasn't always cold. Someplace alive with other people.
With a snort, Drakus pulled his knife out and moved to the hut. Stepping inside, he found only a girl, her hands tethered to the ground. She might have been pretty, but for the bruises and tear stained smuges of dirt on her face. Having obviously been through a lot since her capture, she hadn't the spirit left to beg for her life. She only bowed her head and kneeled in submission.
Arthas stared at the Dragon, a slight smile creasing his face.
"Nivavrel, ignore them, we have no time for them." thought Arthas through mental link, careful to keep his mind sheilded.
"Inginetem Van Thorum!" he shouted then clapped his hands together, creating a swirling mass of colors behind him.
"Coward!" Shouted the enemy rider.
"Seems they wish to play 'tag'" Xir muttered.
"And when we catch them, we can rip their heads off."
"Good point. Lets find this coward." Xan climed on, The light glinting of of some of the chains that hung from his armor. Xir took to the skys, stirring up a small whirlwind of leaves. They began their search.
"No dout they will be right behind us." said Nivavrel.
"His Dragon was extremely small, it must have been very young." said Nivavrel. Arthas did not reply, he merely watched as the tunnel of color came to an end and they had arrived at the Orders entrence.
"He flew no colors, was he of us or the Forsworn?" said arthas in an undertone.
"I beleve they were rouges, untrained in magic or proper rideing."
Arthas and Nivavrel sat perched on one of the pillers of the Order's castle, Arthas held Vir'Roc in his left hand and had his legs strapped onto Nivavrel's saddle.
Then a black spot apeared in the sky. Arthas and Nivavrel took off at full speed towards the rouge, muttering a spell as they flew.
"Mezorgoth zem faremere!" yelled arthas just as Nivavrel unleahed a rage of flames. The spell instantly took effect, triple heating the flames and turning them blue.
Appearence: He has long hair, the colour of the midnight void. His eyes are bright green, and a scar stretches from left temple to the right corner of his chin. He is tall, and muscled from years of hard labour.
--Enchantment(riders only): One blade is enchanted with fire, and ignites into blue fire when held in Drayek's hand. The other blade has an ice enchant, and has a frosty air about it when held by Drayek.
"They are to fast, lets slow them down!" said Arthas.
"Shivier Nihilus!"(Freeze them in place)"you may make an excelent team, but your mind has no defence!"
The rouge sat forzen in the air, squirming to move.
"You could be great, let me train you, become my apprentice..." Then he placed Vir'Roc at the base of the rouges immoble neck, "Or die."
"Let me go and I'll tell you" Xan spat. Xan actually was trained in magic, and he ecceled at killing and defending himself with it, but he had taken a liking to the darker side of existance, and now served himself as a rouge. It was a good life he and Xir had travled far, and killed many. He would kill this whelp soon enough.
Drayek stepped out of his cave, and into the cool air of the mountains. His swords and armur was securely strapped to his back, and he looked forward to a good day of hunting. Beside him, Dag'raal stretched his silvery mass, and looked about. Ever since their encounter with the Order, they had been forced to be constantly alert and on the run.
There is battle being done today, my brother.
Dag'raal's voice and the accompanying image of a pillar of smoke snapped Drayek's attention to the here-and-now.
"Very well. At the very least, we could do a quick flyby." They were quite bored by their monotonous existance, even if the tranquility did them good. Right now, they needed some good old fashioned conflict. He leaped onto Dag'raal's back, and the mighty Dragon took to the sky with powerful beats of his wings. The two flew off towards the south, and the war and death that rose like a cloud on the horizon.

The combination of high-dimensionality and disparity of time scales encountered in many problems in computational physics has motivated the development of coarse-grained (CG) models. In this paper, we advocate the paradigm of data-driven discovery for extracting governing equations by employing fine-scale simulation data. In particular, we cast the coarse-graining process under a probabilistic state-space model where the transition law dictates the evolution of the CG state variables and the emission law the coarse-to-fine map. The directed probabilistic graphical model implied, suggests that given values for the fine-grained (FG) variables, probabilistic inference tools must be employed to identify the corresponding values for the CG states and to that end, we employ Stochastic Variational Inference. We advocate a sparse Bayesian learning perspective which avoids overfitting and reveals the most salient features in the CG evolution law. The formulation adopted enables the quantification of a crucial, and often neglected, component in the CG process, i.e. the predictive uncertainty due to information loss. Furthermore, it is capable of reconstructing the evolution of the full, fine-scale system. We demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed framework in high-dimensional systems of random walkers.
Reconstructed Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Hyperbolic Diffusion Equations on Unstructured Grids
Jialin Lou, Xiaodong Liu, Hong Luo & Hiroaki Nishikawa
Reconstructed Discontinuous Galerkin (rDG) methods are presented for solving diffusion equations based on a first-order hyperbolic system (FOHS) formulation. The idea is to combine the advantages of the FOHS formulation and the rDG methods in an effort to develop a more reliable, accurate, efficient, and robust method for solving the diffusion equations. The developed hyperbolic rDG methods can be made to have higher-order accuracy than conventional DG methods with fewer degrees of freedom. A number of test cases for different diffusion equations are presented to assess accuracy and performance of the newly developed hyperbolic rDG methods in comparison with the standard BR2 DG method. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the hyperbolic rDG methods are able to achieve the designed optimal order of accuracy for both solutions and their derivatives on regular, irregular, and heterogeneous girds, and outperform the BR2 method in terms of the magnitude of the error, the order of accuracy, the size of time steps, and the CPU times required to achieve steady state solutions, indicating that the developed hyperbolic rDG methods provide an attractive and probably an even superior alternative for solving the diffusion equations.
Locating Multiple Multipolar Acoustic Sources Using the Direct Sampling Method
Deyue Zhang, Yukun Guo, Jingzhi Li & Hongyu Liu
This work is concerned with the inverse source problem of locating multiple multipolar sources from boundary measurements for the Helmholtz equation. We develop simple and effective sampling schemes for location acquisition of the sources with a single wavenumber. Our algorithms are based on some novel indicator functions whose indicating behaviors could be used to locate multiple multipolar sources. The inversion schemes are totally "direct" in the sense that only simple integral calculations are involved in evaluating the indicator functions. Rigorous mathematical justifications are provided and extensive numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness, robustness and efficiency of the proposed methods.
Detonation Simulations with a Fifth-Order TENO Scheme
Haibo Dong, Lin Fu, Fan Zhang, Yu Liu & Jun Liu
In [Fu et al., JCP 305(2016): 333-359], a family of high-order targeted ENO (TENO) schemes is proposed. The weighting strategy of TENO either applies a candidate stencil with its optimal weight, or removes its contribution completely when it is crossed by discontinuities. This ENO-like stencil selection procedure significantly diminishes the numerical dissipation induced by the nonlinear adaptations of classical WENO schemes. In this paper, the fifth-order TENO scheme is extended to simulate reactive flows in combination with an uncoupled method [1, 2], which splits the reaction source term of detailed chemistry from the flow equations. A set of benchmark cases including the two-dimensional self-sustained detonation is simulated to validate and compare the performance of the fifth-order WENO and TENO schemes. Numerical experiments demonstrate that TENO scheme is robust for simulating chemical reacting flows with using the uncoupled method. In particular, TENO scheme shows better performance in capturing both the shockwaves and the small-scale flow structures, e.g. shear layers and vortices.
A Highly Efficient Numerical Method for Rotating Oceanographic Flows Modeled by Saint-Venant System with Coriolis Forces
Xin Liu
In order to overcome the strong limitation of the computational cost for classic explicit schemes in quasi-geostrophic limit typically involved in oceanographic flows, in this study, a highly efficient numerical method for rotating oceanographic flows modeled by Saint-Venant system with Coriolis forces is developed. To efficiently deal with the rotating flows in the low Rossby and Froude number regime, the core idea is splitting fast varying flux terms into stiff and non-stiff parts, and implicitly approximating the fast dynamic waves using central difference method with an iteration algorithm and explicitly approximating slow dynamic waves using a finite-volume hyperbolic solver with minmod limiter. The proposed approach has a second order convergence rate in the quasi-geostrophic limit. The temporal evolution is approximated using a high-order implicit-explicit Runge-Kutta method. The proposed semi-implicit scheme is proved to be uniformly asymptotically consistent in the quasi-geostrophic limit when Froude and Rossby numbers→0. The proposed numerical methods are finally verified by numerical experiments of rotating shallow flows. The tests show that the proposed numerical scheme is stable and accurate with any grid size with low Rossby and Froude numbers, which leads to significant reduction of the computational cost comparing with classic explicit schemes.
High Order Finite Difference Scheme based on DG Boundary Treatment (FDbDG)
Kun Wang, Jian Cheng & Tiegang Liu
Due to its computational efficiency, high-order finite difference (FD) method is attractive, but the difficulty of treating boundary hampers the practical application in complex flow simulation. In this work, we propose a novel high-order FD scheme based on discontinuous Galerkin (DG) boundary treatment (FDbDG) where a DG method based on variational principle is applied to provide the flow properties in the vicinity of the boundary with desirable derivative information in time. In order to carefully combine the finite element and finite difference, Hermite weighted essentially non-oscillatory (HWENO) interpolation is adopted to build the HWENO flux for interior FD scheme and HWENO reconstruction is used to construct the degrees of freedom in the DG flux for boundary variational method. Several typical test cases are selected to evaluate the treatment for FD boundary. Numerical results show the proposed FDbDG method can reach arbitrary order of accuracy including boundary region with non-essentially oscillations.
Neutron Discrete Velocity Boltzmann Equation and Its Finite Volume Lattice Boltzmann Scheme
Yahui Wang, Ming Xie & Yu Ma
Simulation of neutron transport process plays an important role in nuclear reactor computation and the numerical technique becomes the focus of nuclear reactor engineering. This paper provides a neutron finite volume lattice Boltzmann method (NFV-LBM) for solving the neutron discrete velocity Boltzmann equation (NDVBE), in which the NDVBE is deduced from the neutron transport equation (NTE) and the NFV-LBM is obtained by integrating the NDVBE. The macroscopic conservation equations recovered from the NDVBE via multi-scale expansion shows that the NDVBE has higher-order accuracy than diffusion theory, and the numerical solutions of neutron transport problems reveal the flexibility and applicability of NFV-LBM. This paper may provide some alternative perspectives for solving the NTE and some new ideas for researching the relationship between the NTE and other approximations.
An Implicit Discrete Unified Gas-Kinetic Scheme for Simulations of Steady Flow in All Flow Regimes
Dongxin Pan, Chengwen Zhong & Congshan Zhuo
This paper presents an implicit discrete unified gas-kinetic scheme (DUGKS) for steady state flow simulation in all flow regimes. The DUGKS is a multi-scale finite volume method (FVM), which is able to recover accurately the Navier-Stokes solutions in the continuum regime and the free molecular transport in collisionless regime. In the transition regime, the DUGKS can present reliable solution as well due to the close coupling of particle transport and collision in the flux evaluation at a cell interface. In this paper, an implicit DUGKS is constructed with predicted iterative steps for the updating of macroscopic flow variables, then the updating of microscopic gas distribution function in a discrete velocity space. The lower-upper symmetric Gauss-Seidel (LU-SGS) factorization is applied to solve the implicit equations. The fast convergence of implicit discrete unified gas-kinetic scheme (IDUGKS) can be achieved through the adoption of a numerical time step with a large CFL number. Some numerical test cases, including the Couette flow, the lid-driven cavity flows under different Knudsen numbers and the hypersonic flow in transition flow regime around a circular cylinder, have been performed to validate the proposed IDUGKS. The computational efficiency of the IDUGKS for steady state flow computations in all flow regimes can be improved by one or two orders of magnitude in comparison with the explicit DUGKS.
Error Analysis of the Plane Wave Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Maxwell's Equations in Anisotropic Media
Long Yuan & Qiya Hu
In this paper we investigate the plane wave discontinuous Galerkin method for three-dimensional anisotropic time-harmonic Maxwell's equations with diagonal matrix coefficients. By introducing suitable transformations, we define new plane wave basis functions and derive error estimates of the approximate solutions generated by the proposed discretization method for the considered homogeneous equations. In the error estimates, some dependence of the error bounds on the condition number of the coefficient matrix is explicitly given. Combined with local spectral element method, we further prove a convergence result for the nonhomogeneous case. Numerical results verify the validity of the theoretical results, and indicate that the resulting approximate solutions generated by the PWDG possess high accuracies.
Explicit Integration of Stiff Stochastic Differential Equations via an Efficient Implementation of Stochastic Computational Singular Perturbation
Lijin Wang, Yanzhao Cao & Sau-Hai Lam
Numerical integration of stiff stochastic differential equations based on stochastic computational singular perturbation (SCSP) was recently developed in [62]. In this paper, a modified stochastic computational singular perturbation (MSCSP) method is considered. Similar to what was proposed in [26] for deterministic chemical reaction systems, the current study applies the sensitivity derivatives of the forcing terms with respect to the state variables to measure the reaction scales, which leads to a quasi-steady state equation for the fast species. This yields explicit large-step integrators for stochastic fast-slow stiff differential equations systems, which removes the expensive eigen-calculations of the standard SCSP integrators. The efficiency of the MSCSP integrators is demonstrated with the benchmark stochastic Davis-Skodje model and a nonlinear catalysis model under certain stochastic disturbances.
The Adaptive Monte Carlo Toolbox for Phase Space Integration and Generation
R. A. Kycia, J. Turnau, J. J. Chwastowski, R. Staszewski & M. Trzebiński
An implementation of the Monte Carlo (MC) phase space generators coupled with adaptive MC integration/simulation program FOAM is presented. The first program is a modification of the classic phase space generator GENBOD interfaced with the adaptive sampling integrator/generator FOAM. On top of this tool the algorithm suitable for generation of the phase space for an reaction with two leading particles is presented (double-peripheral process with central production of particles). At the same time, it serves as an instructive example of construction of a self-adaptive phase space generator/integrator with a modular structure for specialized particle physics calculations.
A Bayesian Approach for Energy-Based Estimation of Acoustic Aberrations in High Intensity Focused Ultrasound Treatment
Bamdad Hosseini, Charles Mougenot, Samuel Pichardo, Elodie Constanciel, James M. Drake & John Stockie
High intensity focused ultrasound is a non-invasive method for treatment of diseased tissue that uses a beam of ultrasound to generate heat within a small volume. A common challenge in application of this technique is that heterogeneity of the biological medium can defocus the ultrasound beam. Here we reduce the problem of refocusing the beam to the inverse problem of estimating the acoustic aberration due to the biological tissue from acoustic radiative force imaging data. We solve this inverse problem using a Bayesian framework with a hierarchical prior and solve the inverse problem using a Metropolis-within-Gibbs algorithm. The framework is tested using both synthetic and experimental datasets. We demonstrate that our approach has the ability to estimate the aberrations using small datasets, as little as 32 sonication tests, which can lead to significant speedup in the treatment process. Furthermore, our approach is compatible with a wide range of sonication tests and can be applied to other energy-based measurement techniques.
Computational Optimal Design of Random Rough Surfaces in Thin-Film Solar Cells
Gang Bao, Yanzhao Cao, Junshan Lin & Hans Werner Van Wyk
Random rough textures can increase the absorbing efficiency of solar cells by trapping the optical light and increasing the optical path of photons. In this paper, we are concerned with optimal design of random rough surfaces in thin-film solar cells. We formulate the design problem as a random PDE constrained optimization problem and employ gradient-based methods for solving the problem numerically. To evaluate the gradient of the objective function, the Monte-Carlo method is used for sampling the probability space and the adjoint state method is employed to calculate the gradient at each sample. Numerical examples are shown to test the efficiency of the proposed algorithm. It is demonstrated that optimally obtained random textures yield an enormous absorption enhancement and a higher photon absorptance than that of existing random textures.

Love golfing and want to practice with whatever spare time you have? Well, hitting plenty of golf balls on the driving range doesn't mean your skill would improve, and you will also spend a whole lot on balls as well. The Twilighttracer Golf Ball might offer something different to your game, where a £9.95 'investment' will feature a powerful internal LED that can flash colored lights for up to 5 minutes after you hit it, easily letting you enjoy some golfing during low light conditions. This means you can even enjoy a round of golf late into the night if you are in the mood, since finding your ball long after you drive it far into the green isn't too hard. Boasting a battery life of 80 hours, you can keep this ball flashing for approximately 1,000 strokes, now how about that? It is also legit to use in games, being the official size and weight of the U.S.G.A. and R&A, while boasting a tough Surlyn cover which prevents it from being damaged and losing its healthy glow. Each purchase will come with a couple of tees and a carrying pouch.
Is this the Coolest Swimming Pool Ever?
I love it! There are so many times when I want to tee off when it's cheaper (sunset) but I worry about losing my golf ball. Cool ball!

No independent download, added to Internet Explorer in IE 5.5 and removed in IE 9. X-UA-Compatible does not appear to work
* DLLs from Windows XP + Internet Explorer 6 are installable: mstime.dll for time2, datime.dll for time
* IE11 on Windows 10 with DLLs installed and registry entry seems to have issues with transparency.
* IE6 via Utilu on Windows 10 bolds some stuff weirdly.
* Ad demos are apparently older HTML+TIME syntax and only seem to run on IE5.5. Can datime.dll be unblocked on Win10 and syntax added to ensure its inclusion into the page? How large would a rewrite into XHTML+SMIL be?

A proposal by Google for a standard 3D API for the Web. WebGL supplanted it. Google eventually wrote a WebGL version of O3D, but conversion is not automatic and the Beach demo was not converted
http://www.tcl.tk/software/plugin/download.html

Has a huge number of runtime components that are downloaded and installed on demand. They are listed here:
* Uses the Windows system directory and is not portable.
http://runtime.panda3d.org/contents.xml
The runtime components are all available from this open directory:
http://runtime.panda3d.org/
* The latest version available on apple.com requires Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Service Pack 1 MFC.
* Both Apple Application Support and QuickTime are required. Registry entries point to their locations.
* Registry files: [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/516027726851735632/708149898729488414/apple.reg apple.reg], [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/516027726851735632/708149900696617070/quicktime.reg quicktime.reg]
* Not all data in quicktime.reg is likely needed.
* In Flashpoint, Basilisk is currently configured to disable QuickTime by default to avoid conflicts.
* Some of the npqtplugin.dll files may interfere with other video/audio plugins or built-in behavior. It may make sense to have the QuickTime plugin available only when viewing a QuickTime curation. Basilisk's built-in MIME type configuration dialog can also be used to choose what plugins are used for different types of content.
== MDL Chime ==
== Scratch ==
* [https://scratch.mit.edu/ Website]
* [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scratch_(programming_language) Wikipedia article]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MDL_Chime
An online block-based virtual language, currently based upon Blockly, then previously Flash, and before that, Java (Squeak 2.8 for the offline editor). While it is possible to curate Scratch games in Flashpoint using converters and packagers, they are not in their original form.

When the plugin is installed, navigating to a page that uses the plugin immediately crashes K-Meleon.
* Scratch 2 and 3 do not have Linux versions. However, it may be possible to run their respective Windows versions in Wine or use a web version.

A list of some VRML players, containing links to download them: https://www.vrinternal.com/docs/links.html
It's unclear whether these two links reference the same plugin or two different plugins with Tulip in the name.
Cosmo Player: https://cosmo-player.en.softonic.com/download
* Exstream: 3D does not play unless the proper codec is available for the (usually? always?) .asf file. The codec in use appears to be 0x75 VoxWare Metasound. The downloads available for this codec do not appear to work directly. ffmpeg can process it but it sounds terrible. MPlayer, when given its binary codecs and the -ac voxware option, sounds excellent. However, the binary requires a file to be present in SysWOW64. We may need to reencode the .asf files via MPlayer (and then ffmpeg if MPlayer cannot output an .asf file).

Exstream: 3D does not play unless the proper codec is available for the (usually? always?) .asf file. The codec in use appears to be 0x75 VoxWare Metasound. The downloads available for this codec do not appear to work directly. ffmpeg can process it but it sounds terrible. MPlayer, when given its binary codecs and the -ac voxware option, sounds excellent. However, the binary requires a file to be present in SysWOW64. We may need to reencode the .asf files via MPlayer (and then ffmpeg if MPlayer cannot output an .asf file).

'The Sheet steel rill, part rusted as if it's redundant of its original purpose gives way to clean cut new stone, which reaches above the thick planting giving the border its urban characteristics. This border reflects that which has happened to Birmingham in the past and present, turning from the industrial heart of the country and the centre of the canal network to a national conference and commercial centre. The old industrial canals that were once lined with derelict warehouses are now regenerated and used in conjunction with nature to inspire, educate and help people escape from city life.

Q: Why were AT-AT walkers armour able to mitigate T-47 laser damage when walking? When the battle of Hoth begun and Luke Skywalker leads his T-47 into battle shooting at the AT-AT walkers, he claims "that armour is too strong for blasters", yet moments later an AT-AT comes crashing down and a T-47 flies past, shooting it and the AT-AT explodes.
Was there an explanation as to why, first of all, Luke Skywalker's claim that the AT-AT armour is too strong for the T-47 lasers and secondly what difference did it make when the AT-AT had fallen down that rendered the armour mitigated so the T-47 could finally blow them up?
Looking for only canon answers please.

A: From Wookieepedia - All Terrain Armored Transport:

The most vulnerable part of the walker was a weak point found at its flexible neck, which was susceptible to lighter blaster barrages.

Falling down put the walker in a position where the vulnerable spot on the neck was exposed, making it an easy, stationary target.

Greenville's 7th Annual Bras for Cause Preps for Kick-off
Isabella Garcia, Staff Reporter
October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and the annual Bras for the Cause, native to Greenville, has continued to flourish and make an impact on the community.
Janeen Cunningham, the founder of this innovative nonprofit organization, began this back in 2009. A graduate of Greenville High and an alumna of Texas A&M University-Commerce, she wanted to create an event that ensured all the revenue would directly benefit the community's residents by aiding in cancer detection and providing treatment.
The annual Kick-Off Party was held on Aug. 25 at Landon Winery (in downtown Greenville), which unveiled this year's Texas theme of "B4TC Ya'll." Last year, Bras for the Cause was able to raise a total of $122,216 to pay for new UV sterilization units for the Lou and Jack Finney Cancer Center. In previous years, the contributions have also benefited Janice's Closet and Hunt Regional Healthcare.
Janice's Closet provides free treatment, clothing pieces and wigs for women in Hunt County who are referred. Hunt Regional Healthcare's Tubby Adkisson Mobile Mammography Coach is entirely supplied with the latest appliances to appropriately administer a mammogram. This portable service provides previously incapable women this opportunity without being restricted by distance.
Anyone is eligible to submit a bra idea decorated with anything that interests the person as long as it is appropriate. The public, who pay $1 per vote to endorse their choice bra, is responsible for the money raised.
There will be a total of 12 "Bra-bie"awards given out to different designs. The top five bras that receive the most donations earn "BRAgging Rights Bra-Bies" awards. The other seven punny awards are independent and set in different categories. All bra-makers earn a ribbon to wear during the night of the festival in recognition of their participation.
"B4TC Y'all" is given to the bra that best incorporates the year's theme. The most ingenious use of materials on the bra wins the "BRAids, BRAds, & BRAss." "BRAnches & BRAmbles" is awarded to the artwork with the most original use of natural materials or focuses on a nature theme. "Training BRA" is awarded to a designer who is 18 years or younger. "BRAndishing your BRAnd" is given to the bra that advertises their company logo or product the best. "BRAniac" is presented to the piece with the best usage of technology, from lights to sounds. The display with the most outstanding name is awarded the "BRAinteaser."
Physical voting takes place in downtown Greenville on Lee Street between Landon Winery and the Texan Theater from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 13. The event welcomes everyone and is free to attend. Awards will be given out later that night at 9:30 p.m. Online voting opened Tuesday, Oct. 11 at www.b4tcgreenville.com to allow a greater audience participation.
Meanwhile on campus, the Morris Recreation Center held their annual Big Pink Volleyball Game from Tuesday Oct. 4 to Thursday Oct 6. This was a unique sport event played with a gigantic 4-ft Kin-ball instead of a regular volleyball ball. A maximum of 10 players on one team could have registered before Sept. 30. The $5 that each player paid will aid in the fight against breast cancer. This limited occasion provided an enjoyable experience while helping a bigger cause.
These two occasions are uniquely different, but both work towards the same cause. Although breast cancer is a major disease, the cities of Commerce and Greenville have been doing their part every year to bring awareness and help patients. These two events prove that whether it is one person or one university, anyone can contribute.

The owners of this condo took a minimalist approach to decorating their new home and didn't want their entertainment center to be the focus of the room; unless it was in use, of course.
The custom built fireplace has hidden compartments for the system hardware, 5.2 invisible surround sound, storage and a big screen TV recessed into the wall. A motorized lift from Future Automation moves the artwork and reveals the hidden TV with the push of a button; capable of lifting 80 lbs, the motor can easily move larger art with vintage frames or oversized mirrors.
The fully integrated system is operated by URC's user-friendly Total Control platform. The homeowners can adjust the home's lighting, temperature settings, motorized shades, security and entertainment system using a number of devices; including any of today's smartphones and tablets.


If you are thinking about finding spiritual delight away from all the worries the day to day life imposes upon you, the tour package will suit you… !
Madurai is a 2600 years old historical city surrounded by elegant natural plantations, technical institutes and textile mills situated in Tamilnadu, India. The city is known for its rich heritage, culture and historical background in the sense that Lord Shiva himself performed sixty-four wonders called "Thiruvilaiyadals" in Madurai many centuries ago. Madurai is located on banks of river Vaigai and was the capital of Pandya kingdom.
Rameswaram is the abode of one of the 12 Jyothirlingas of India. It is also considered one among four most sacred pilgrim centers of India. They are Rameswaram in the South, Badrinath in the North, Puri in the East and Dwaraka in the West. Among these, Rameswaram is dedicated to Shiva, while the other three are dedicated to Vishnu.
The town of Kanyakumari is geographically a Cape, and it was known earlier as Cape Comorin. Since ancient times, Kanyakumari District has consisted of two geographical areas, known locally as Nanjilnadu and Idainadu. The etymologists interpret the word Nanjilnadu as the country ('nadu') where there were (and still has) several agriculture plantations and fields. Nanjilnadu is mentioned in old Tamil literature as a rich agrarian area, where the town of Kottar, (today, a locality in Nagercoil) as a major commercial centre.
At the Southern most tip of India, where the Arabian Sea, the Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal meet, lies Kanyakumari, an important pilgrim centre. The beach itself is a beautiful sight with multi-coloured sand. There is a lighthouse from where one can get a panoramic view.
