Implicit curve and surface design using smooth unit step functions (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Li, Q., & Phillips, R. (2004, June). Implicit curve and surface design using smooth unit step functions. Presented at ACM Symposium on Solid and Physical Modeling, Genoa, Italy

This paper presents an implicit curve and surface design technique that uses smooth unit step functions. With the proposed method, an implicit curve or surface can be generated by inputting a sequence of points together with the normals at these poin...

The application of sacral nerve stimulation to the disrupted anal sphincter (2004)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gardiner, A., & Duthie, G. The application of sacral nerve stimulation to the disrupted anal sphincter

Background Sacral nerve stimulation has been successfully used in the treatment of faecalincontinence. It has been applied to patients with intact anal sphincters. We have assessed20 patients with either an external sphincter defect or combined EAS a... Read More about The application of sacral nerve stimulation to the disrupted anal sphincter.

Stereo visualization of 3D trabecular bone structures produced by bone remodelling simulation (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Phillips, R., Grunchec, J. A., Ward, J. W., Fagan, M. J., Dobson, C. A., Langton, C. M., & Sisias, G. Stereo visualization of 3D trabecular bone structures produced by bone remodelling simulation

Adult human bone is constantly being renewed by a process known as remodelling. For cancellous bone this renewal process occurs at the interface between bone and marrow where bone is depleted by osteoclasts and rebuilt by osteoblasts. This remodellin...

Is disease specific quality of life analysis necessary in intermittent claudication?  (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mehta, T., Chetter, I., Venkatasubramaniam, A. K., Mylankal, K., Ray, B., & McCollum, P. Is disease specific quality of life analysis necessary in intermittent claudication? 

This study aimed to assess the validity and responsiveness of three disease-specific QoL instruments in intermittent claudication.

The current opinion on the use of robots for landmine detection (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Rajasekharan, S., & Kambhampati, C. The current opinion on the use of robots for landmine detection. Presented at 2003 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (Cat. No.03CH37422), Taipei, Taiwan, Taiwan

Anti-Personal landmines are a significant barrier to economic and social development in a number of countries. Several sensors have been developed but each one will probably have to find, if it exists, a specific area of applicability, determined by...

Size exclusion chromatography and rheology of AB/AB2 hyperbranched polymers (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kunamaneni, S., Buzza, D. M. A., Parker, D., & Feast, W. J. Size exclusion chromatography and rheology of AB/AB2 hyperbranched polymers

We report size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and linear shear rheology results for a series of AB/AB2 hyperbranched polyesters. For these samples, the weight average molecular weight Mw was systematically varied from 3000 to 250000 but the spacer le...
