A decade of internationalisation: Has it influenced students' views of cross-cultural group work at University? (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Montgomery, C. A decade of internationalisation: Has it influenced students' views of cross-cultural group work at University?

This article considers how student views of collaborative study in a diverse international academic context may have changed in the past decade. A retrospective is provided on a research project carried out in 1998 that investigated students' views o...

Basin scale fluxes of metals from historically mined orefields in the UK. (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mayes, W. M., Rolls, T., Potter, H. A., & Jarvis, A. P. (2009, June). Basin scale fluxes of metals from historically mined orefields in the UK. Presented at 8th International Conference on Acid Rock Drainage

The flux of metals at the tidal limits of major rivers are an important metric of freshwater contaminant transfer to marine habitats, reported in North-East Atlantic bordering countries under the 1992 OSPAR Convention. This paper critically assesses... Read More about Basin scale fluxes of metals from historically mined orefields in the UK..

A language for failure patterns and application in safety analysis (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wolforth, I., Walker, M., & Papadopoulos, Y. A language for failure patterns and application in safety analysis. Presented at 2008 Third International Conference on Dependability of Computer Systems DepCoS-RELCOMEX

Components and families of components in mechatronic systems often exhibit failure characteristics that are independent of system context and repeatable across applications. In this paper, we show that it is possible to capture and reuse such pattern... Read More about A language for failure patterns and application in safety analysis.

Semi automatic failure analysis based on simulation models (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hamann, R., Uhlig, A., Papadopoulos, Y., Rüde, E., Grätz, U., Walker, M., & Lien, R. (2018, June). Semi automatic failure analysis based on simulation models. Presented at Volume 2: Structures, Safety and Reliability

Classical risk assessment and risk management which is gaining importance in many industries is usually based on well defined processes and uses techniques like FTA and FMEA. However, classical risk analysis techniques like FTA and FMEA should ideall... Read More about Semi automatic failure analysis based on simulation models.

Improving service and sustainability in retail supply chains (2008)

Presentation / Conference Contribution
Holter, A., Millar Ritchie, J., Shaw, W. N., & Grant, D. (2008, September). Improving the bottom line: Moving towards a transport capability maturity model. Presented at Logistics Research Network Annual Conference 2008, Liverpool, United Kingdom

Transport is often considered a service that can easily be purchased and obtained without further complications. However, managing and purchasing transport is a complex process. A five step transport purchasing capability maturity model is proposed w... Read More about Improving the bottom line: Moving towards a transport capability maturity model.

Spiking neurons: Is coincidence-factor enough for comparing responses with fluctuating membrane voltage? (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sarangdhar, M., & Kambhampati, C. Spiking neurons: Is coincidence-factor enough for comparing responses with fluctuating membrane voltage?

Similarity between two spike trains is generally estimated using a ‘coincidence factor’. This factor relies on counting coincidences of firing-times for spikes in a given time window. However, in cases where there are significant fluctuations in memb... Read More about Spiking neurons: Is coincidence-factor enough for comparing responses with fluctuating membrane voltage?.

Non-coherent modelling in compositional fault tree analysis (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sharvia, S., & Papadopoulos, Y. I. Non-coherent modelling in compositional fault tree analysis

The inclusion of NOT gates in a fault tree creates a 'non-coherent' structure in which not only the failure of a component but also the negation of failure, i.e. the working state of the component, can contribute to the undesirable effects on a syste...

Simulation and static measurement of the gas volume fraction in a separated flow model using a conductance multiphase Venturi meter (CMVM) (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hasan, A., & Lucas, G. (2008, November). Simulation and static measurement of the gas volume fraction in a separated flow model using a conductance multiphase Venturi meter (CMVM). Presented at Proceedings of the Computing and Engineering Annual Researchers’ Conference, Huddersfield, UK

The assumption of equal mixture densities at the inlet and the throat of the Venturi is only valid in a homogenous flow. This assumption is no longer valid for a separated flow and therefore, the measurement of the gas volume fraction at the throat m...
