Item type: Publication , Access status: Metadata only , test shivam2(2025) Bhardwaj, ShivamItem type: Publication , Access status: Metadata only , Scientific Science(2021) Smith, JaneThis article offers a conceptual discussion of commonly referenced ideas within scientific research, focusing on how general scientific principles are interpreted, communicated, and applied across disciplines. The analysis reviews prevailing frameworks, summarizes recurring themes in the literature, and proposes overarching considerations for understanding scientific practice in a broad sense. The work aims to provide a clear and accessible reference point for ongoing scholarly conversation.Item type: Publication , Access status: Metadata only , Sciences and Humanities: Subjects of Academia(2025) Smith, Jane; Dimon, Isabella; Long, Chris J.This conference contribution examines the relationship between the sciences and the humanities within contemporary academic discourse. It outlines broad areas of convergence and divergence, noting how institutional, methodological, and historical factors shape interactions between fields. The paper highlights ongoing conversations about interdisciplinarity and suggests general considerations for understanding how academic subjects evolve over time.Item type: Publication , Access status: Metadata only , A study of the Hasegawa-Wakatani equations using an implicit explicit backward differentiation formula(2008) Stals, L.The Hasegawa-Wakatani system of equations may be used to predict and study the behaviour of plasma flow. A recent analytical study of the use of linear multistep methods to solve the Hasegawa-Wakatani equations showed the backward differentiation formulas to be the most stable. The backward differentiation formulas require a solution of a large dense system of equations, so we implemented an implicit explicit version of the formula. We study the performance of the implicit explicit backward differentiation formula on some example problems where the behaviour of the Hasegawa-Wakatani equation is predictable. These results suggest that the implicit explicit method is appropriate to use with the Hasegawa-Wakatani equations.Item type: Publication , Access status: Metadata only , The concise guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2013/14: Overview(2013) Alexander, Stephen P.H.; Benson, Helen E.; Faccenda, Elena; Pawson, Adam J.; Sharman, Joanna L.; McGrath, John C.; Catterall, William A.; Spedding, Michael; Peters, John A.; Harmar, Anthony J.The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2013/14 provides concise overviews of the key properties of over 2000 human drug targets with their pharmacology, plus links to an open access knowledgebase of drug targets and their ligands (www.guidetopharmacology.org), which provides more detailed views of target and ligand properties from the IUPHAR database. The full contents can be found at http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bph.12444/full. This compilation of the major pharmacological targets is divided into seven areas of focus: G protein-coupled receptors, ligand-gated ion channels, ion channels, catalytic receptors, nuclear hormone receptors, transporters and enzymes. These are presented with nomenclature guidance and summary information on the best available pharmacological tools, alongside key references and suggestions for further reading. A new landscape format has easy to use tables comparing related targets. It is a condensed version of material contemporary to late 2013, which is presented in greater detail and constantly updated on the website www.guidetopharmacology.org, superseding data presented in previous Guides to Receptors & Channels. It is produced in conjunction with NC-IUPHAR and provides the official IUPHAR classification and nomenclature for human drug targets, where appropriate. It consolidates information previously curated and displayed separately in IUPHAR-DB and GRAC and provides a permanent, citable, point-in-time record that will survive database updates.
