Aircraft computations using multigrid and an unstructured parallel library

This paper examines the application of unstructured multigrid, using a sequence of independent tetrahedral grids. The test cases examined are for inviscid flow over an aircraft and an M6 wing. The sensitivity of the method to grid sequence and cycling strategy are investigated. \ud \ud All of the calculations were performed on a parallel computer. This was achieved by using the OPlus library which, by the straightforward insertion of subroutine calls, facilitates parallelisation of the resulting code. A single source OPlus application code can be compiled to executed on either a parallel or sequential machine. This greatly increases the usability of the parallel machine, and the maintainability of the code

Governing Young People: coherence and contradiction in contemporary youth justice

This article explores the burgeoning literature on modes and layers of governance and applies it to the complex of contemporary youth justice reform. Globalized neo-liberal processes of responsibilization and risk management coupled with traditional neo-conservative authoritarian strategies have dominated the political landscape. However, they also have to work alongside or within ‘new’ conceptions of social inclusion, partnership, restoration and moralization. These apparently contradictory strategies open up the possibility of multiple localized translations rather than an often assumed dominance of a uniform ‘culture of control’. The ensuing hybridity also suggests that any coherence within contemporary youth justice relies on continual negotiations between opposing, yet overlapping, discursive practices
