Controllability and elimination of impulsive modes in descriptor systems (2004)
Journal Article
Hou, M. (2004). Controllability and elimination of impulsive modes in descriptor systems. IEEE transactions on automatic control, 49(10), 1723-1729. https://doi.org/10.1109/TAC.2004.835392

As a refined notion, impulsive-mode controllability is suggested for the general class of linear continuous descriptor systems. This notion reveals rich properties of the general descriptor systems in terms of admissibility of initial conditions, adm...

High pressure as a tool to tune electronic coupling in self-assembled quantum dot nanostructures (2004)
Journal Article
Itskevich, I. E., Rybchenko, S. I., Andreev, A. D., Cahill, J., Tartakovskii, A. I., Skolnick, M. S., Hill, G., & Hopkinson, M. (2004). High pressure as a tool to tune electronic coupling in self-assembled quantum dot nanostructures. physica status solidi (b), 241(14), 3257-3262. https://doi.org/10.1002/pssb.200405235

High pressure provides an efficient way of controlling the electronic properties of semiconductor nanostructures. We use pressure to tune electronic coupling in stacks of self-assembled quantum dots (SAQDs). The coupling occurs as soon as the distanc...

Temporary balloon catheter occlusion for control of haemorrhage following penetrating axillary artery injury (2004)
Journal Article
Mehta, T., Venkata Subramaniam, A., Chetter, I., Nicholson, A., & Wilkinson, A. (2004). Temporary balloon catheter occlusion for control of haemorrhage following penetrating axillary artery injury. European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery Extra, 8(2), 29-30. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejvsextra.2004.05.014

Penetrating injuries of the axillary artery are uncommon. Their repair can be difficult in the presence of torrential haemorrhage, which obscures the surgical field. We describe the use of interventional radiology for temporary control of bleeding to...

Wrapping strategies for temperature control of chilled foodstuffs during transport (2004)
Journal Article
Stubbs, D. M., Pulko, S. H., & Wilkinson, A. J. (2004). Wrapping strategies for temperature control of chilled foodstuffs during transport. Transactions of the Institute of Measurement and Control, 26(1), 69-80. https://doi.org/10.1191/0142331204tm0106oa

There is a growing market for food producers to supply their goods direct to customers, which has largely been brought about by the growing popularity of web-based ordering. However, the geographical distance between supplier and consumer can be larg... Read More about Wrapping strategies for temperature control of chilled foodstuffs during transport.

The value of abdominal examination in the diagnosis of abdominal aortic aneurysm (2004)
Journal Article
Venkatasubramaniam, A., Mehta, T., Chetter, I., Bryce, J., Renwick, P., Johnson, B., Wilkinson, A., & McCollum, P. (2004). The value of abdominal examination in the diagnosis of abdominal aortic aneurysm. European journal of vascular and endovascular surgery : the official journal of the European Society for Vascular Surgery, 27(1), 56-60. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejvs.2003.09.006

Background. There is considerable variability in the reported value of clinical examination in the diagnosis of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). This study aims to assess accuracy of abdominal examination by a doctor, a nurse and the patient in the...
