Porous media and the Bénard-Marangoni problem

The Rayleigh-Bénard instability for a clear fluid has its equivalent for a liquid saturated porous matrix. The phenomenological Darcy momentum law cannot give rise by itself to an insta-bility analogous to that of Bénard-Marangoni, but the Brinkman model at least allows it. A critical Marangoni number exists leading to cellullar patterns and, for realistic values of the permeability, it is proportional to the inverse of this last parameter.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

Interactions between the marangoni and intrusion forces in a multi-cavity system

This paper numerically investigates the interaction between the Marangoni convection, the double diffusive convection and the intrusion force in the Maxworthy J. Fluid Mech. Vol. 128, 25-282, 1983] set-up. The model consists of a two-cavity rectangular system in which the smaller cavity is located at the top left corner of the larger one. The larger cavity is filled with hot salty fluid while the smaller one contains cold fresh fluid. This problem is solved for the case of the fresh water intruding into the salty water. The interaction between the Marangoni (thermal and solutal) and the double diffusive regimes is investigated in detail. Finite element modelling results indicate that salinity induces stronger convection than the thermal ones and the thermal and solutal Marangoni convection further enhances the strength of the cellular flow. Numerical results indicate that surface force should be taken into consideration during the analysis and that the intruding force played an important role in the flow behaviour.SCOPUS: cp.pinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

ESMO / ASCO Recommendations for a Global Curriculum in Medical Oncology Edition 2016

The European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) and the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) are publishing a new edition of the ESMO/ ASCO Global Curriculum (GC) thanks to contribution of 64 ESMOappointed and 32 ASCO-appointed authors. First published in 2004 and updated in 2010, the GC edition 2016 answers to the need for updated recommendations for the training of physicians in medical oncology by defining the standard to be fulfilled to qualify as medical oncologists. At times of internationalisation of healthcare and increased mobility of patients and physicians, the GC aims to provide state-of-the-art cancer care to all patients wherever they live. Recent progress in the field of cancer research has indeed resulted in diagnostic and therapeutic innovations such as targeted therapies as a standard therapeutic approach or personalised cancer medicine specialised training for medical oncology trainees. Thus, several new chapters on technical contents such as molecular pathology, translational research or molecular imaging and on conceptual attitudes towards human principles like genetic counselling or survivorship have been integrated in the GC. The GC edition 2016 consists of 12 sections with 17 subsections, 44 chapters and 35 subchapters, respectively. Besides renewal in its contents, the GC underwent a principal formal change taking into consideration modern didactic principles. It is presented in a template-based format that subcategorises the detailed outcome requirements into learning objectives, awareness, knowledge and skills. Consecutive steps will be those of harmonising and implementing teaching and assessment strategies
