Superficially, we get groovy colors, ad hoc materials, decoration and pattern, coyly combined with vaguely utopian proposals for communal participation: Mr. Hug's contribution, for example, is to invite artists, many of the ones from his bedroom show and occasional magazine, to mix music and images onto CD's and DVD's and then produce jewel boxes or more elaborate containers for the disks.
The ramshackle white porcelain-enamelled steel shell, with its battlement roof, is held together by screws, bolts, and ad-hoc materials (duct tape, scraps of wood, C-clamps).
The information locked in unstructured or semi-structured form within these publications, and the publications that will undoubtedly continue to appear with ad hoc supplementary material, is valuable and requires extraction.
The use of micromagnetic models on the simulation of the magnetization reversal allows approaching the "ad hoc" design of materials for particular applications.
But its ad hoc construction and everyday materials — scrubbing sponges, shoestrings and six-pack rings — give it the same mongrel charm and underdog empathy as the rest of the works in this smartly selected and beautifully installed exhibition.
The production and use of an "ad hoc" in-house reference material is just one of the most relevant aspects of this study.
"I hired a bunch of fellow filmmakers I admire here in town and we all fanned out around the Garden and collected material ad hoc," wrote Bar Lev in a recent email.
However, the plant dataset has fewer genes and substantial missing data, and so we extended X to include bipartitions from species trees estimated using MP-EST, CA-ML and MRP, as well as trees published by Chiari et al. (2012) (see Supplementary Materials) This ad hoc approach can improve ASTRAL's ability to find near-optimal solutions, when the exact version is not feasible.
The high nonlinear behaviour of masonry material requires ad hoc refined finite element numerical models, whose complexity and computational cost are generally unsuitable for practical applications.
In the second case, the use of a material prepared ad hoc may allow fine-tuning of the development of the supersaturation in the crystallization chamber by controlling the polymer mesh size and could help to produce crystals of larger size suitable for neutron diffraction.
The incorporation of the mesh in the outer layers of the aortic wall in this case is in accordance with the histological appearance previously shown by Cohen et al., who used a limited ad hoc mesh support with a similar material in 102 patients from 1984 to 2003 [ 5].
