ISBS 2018 AUCKLAND CONFERENCE NGĀ WAI O HOROTIU MARAE PROGRAMME
Student evening supported by AMTI and Thursday tour.
AUT Ngā Wai o Horotiu Marae located on the corner of Wellesley and St Paul\u27s Street
Marae (Māori meeting grounds) and hangi (food) and cultural experience provided by AUT kapa haka Tītahi ki Tua. Please come appropriately dressed to the Marae. Men should at least wear dress pants and a tidy shirt, while women should wear either a knee length skirt or tidy dress pants. You will remove your shoes upon entering the Marae.
Manuhiri will congregate at the waharoa (gateway) of the marae and wait for the karanga (call of welcome) from the kaikaranga (the host caller).
The Kaikōrero Dr Valance Smith will welcome the manuhiri (ISBS2018 student visitors) to Ngā Wai o Horotiu (marae), and will address the assembled company and explain the protocol and proceedings.
The manuhiri are then invited to have a kai (meal – hangi of food cooked in the ground) to complete the formal welcome and begin the lifting of tapu (cultural sanctions). The visitors now become tangata whenua or part of the marae and are expected to participate in the other activities that occur on the marae.
The Kaikōrero will introduce the AUT kapahaka group Tītahi ki Tua (Māori students association) who will perform the haka to the assembled company.
You will have the opportunity to learn the haka so you can participate in performance of the haka at the closing ceremony of the conference
Māori (flexible) learning spaces, old and new
Māori aspirations in education have not been served by past national policies. It is hard to extinguish the influence of monoculturalism, whereby schools were used to colonise Māori by enforcing linguistic and cultural assimilation. The history of debate on Innovative Learning Environments (ILE) and Flexible Learning Spaces (FLS) demonstrates the ongoing dominance of this Eurocentric, monocultural approach. Official New Zealand education policy and practice follows international trends in school design, moving away from traditional single-cell classrooms towards more open and inter-connected spaces, despite no real evidence concerning the relative effects on learning of each classroom type. Meanwhile, school marae have been around for several decades, but largely ignored in national ILE and FLS policy and research literature. Our experiences lead us to suggest that Māori identity must be ‘built in’ not ‘added on’ to monocultural ILE frameworks, and for this reason, spatiality is crucial in Māori teaching and learning spaces. This article explores the notion of ‘Māori learning spaces.
Connecting the health of country with the health of people: Application of “caring for country” in improving the social and emotional well-being of Indigenous people in Australia and New Zealand
Emerging evidence from the western literature suggests an increasing focus on applying nature-based interventions for mental health improvements. However, in Indigenous communities, caring for country has always been central to the Indigenous way of life. Knowing that nature-based interventions effectively improve mental health outcomes, this review collated evidence on the application of caring for country in improving social and emotional well-being (SEWB) of Indigenous peoples in Australia and New Zealand. Three studies from Australia and one from New Zealand, explored the role of country or whenua (land) in the lives of Indigenous people. Participation in caring-for country activities was associated with lower levels of psychological distress and strengthened guardianship relationship with country, which positively affected SEWB. This systematic review offers preliminary evidence on the role of caring for country activities in improving the SEWB of Indigenous peoples and highlights the need for strengths-based approaches to improve the SEWB of Indigenous peoples.

Porous silicon formation and electropolishing
Electrochemical etching of silicon in hydrofluoride containing electrolytes
leads to pore formation for low and to electropolishing for high applied
current. The transition between pore formation and polishing is accompanied by
a change of the valence of the electrochemical dissolution reaction. The local
etching rate at the interface between the semiconductor and the electrolyte is
determined by the local current density. We model the transport of reactants
and reaction products and thus the current density in both, the semiconductor
and the electrolyte. Basic features of the chemical reaction at the interface
are summarized in law of mass action type boundary conditions for the transport
equations at the interface. We investigate the linear stability of a planar and
flat interface. Upon increasing the current density the stability flips either
through a change of the valence of the dissolution reaction or by a nonlinear
boundary conditions at the interface.Comment: 18 pages, 8 figure
ISBS 2018 AUCKLAND CONFERENCE OPENING CEREMONY ORDER OF PROCEEDINGS
The Master of Ceremony Professor Patria Hume will ask delegates to stand at the commencement of the opening for the procession of the dignitaries to the auditorium.
Dignitaries will be called into the auditorium via the Māori traditional karanga, and will proceed to their seats.
The first formal address will be given by kaihāpai Dr Valance Smith and commence with a Karakia (Blessing) and Mihi Whakatau welcoming dignitaries, guests and delegates to the ISBS 2018 Conference.
Derek McCormack, the AUT Vice-Chancellor, will address the assembled company and welcome them to AUT for the conference hosted in partnership by AUT, AUTM, HPSNZ, ATEED and ISBS.
The conference logo was designed by Professor Patria Hume and Dr Valance Smith based on:
the adaption of the AUT SPRINZ logo (taking steps to research-education-service excellence – sprinting up the NZ fern); and the goals of conference reflected in Māori culture “Te hōkai tapuwae” means “The breadth of stride”. Within the Māori Karakia (prayer) ‘Tenei au tenei au’ is the line ‘te hōkai nei i o taku tapuwae’ – The breadth of stride as Tane ascends to the heavens to retrieve the three baskets of knowledge. This embodies human movement and the pursuit of knowledge – the goals of ISBS.
The AUT Faculty of Health and Environmental Sciences Dean and Pro-Vice Chancellor, in absentia, welcomes the assembled company and encourages them to experience the research-education-service focus at AUT.
Mike Stanley, the AUT Millennium (AUT Millennium) Chief Executive & New Zealand Olympic Committee (NZOC) President, will address the assembled company and welcome them to AUTM for the conference applied programme.
Michael Scott, the High Performance Sport New Zealand (HPSNZ) Chief Executive, will address the assembled company and outline the importance of biomechanics and integrated sport science in supporting high performance athletes.
Pam Ford, General Manager Economic Development, Auckland Tourism, Events Economic Development (ATEED), will address the assembled company and outline the importance of the conference to Auckland and New Zealand. Thanks will be given to the industry partners for their active contribution to the conference.
The Conference Flag Ceremony and Official Opening of the Conference by the ISBS President. The delegates selected to participate as flag bearers during the opening ceremony as they were the first from their country to register for the conference, will proceed to the stage. (We apologise to delegates from countries who do not have a flag represented in the flag bearing ceremony due to logistics). The conference will be officially opened by President Young-Hoo with the unfurling of the ISBS banner.
The ISBS President Professor Young-Hoo Kwon will address the assembled company on behalf of the International Society of Biomechanics in Sports and its Board of Directors, to welcome delegates to the 36th ISBS Annual Conference and to the city of Auckland.

All delegates will then proceed to the Kiwiana Opening Reception in the Sir Paul Reeves Atrium, where they will be greeted by Kelly Sheerin, and Alex Muir from VICON, on behalf of the industry partner medallists participating in the Playing Field Events
Formation of ripples over a sand bed submitted to a turbulent shear flow
We investigate the process of ripple formation when a sand bed is submitted to a steady and turbulent liquid flow. The sand transport dynamics is described in terms of a simple relaxation law which accounts for the fact that the transport rate does not adapt instantaneously to its equilibrium value. The equilibrium sand flux is evaluated using a standard law based on the estimation of the flow shear stress calculated at the sand bed surface. The latter is estimated from an analytical resolution of the flow over a deformed sand bed which is based on the Jackson and Hunt calculation [J.C.R. Hunt, Quart. J. R. Met. Soc. 101, 929 (1975)]. Within this model, we investigate the stability of the sand bed and are able to derive analytical scaling laws for the wavelength and phase velocity of the most dangerous mode. In the deep flow limit, the model predicts the occurrence of a single mode of instability corresponding to the formation of ripples. Predictions of our model are compared with previous models and available experimental data. Copyright EDP Sciences/Società Italiana di Fisica/Springer-Verlag 2005
