The fate of oilfield corrosion inhibitors in multiphase systems (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Horsup, D. I., Clark, J. C., Binks, B. P., Fletcher, P. D. I., & Hicks, J. T. The fate of oilfield corrosion inhibitors in multiphase systems

Corrosion inhibitors have been used for many years to protect oil and gas pipelines, The application of small quantifies of an inhibitor to production fluids is often one of the most cost-effective methods for, imparting corrosion protection in a sys...

Time to judge sex of speaker: Effect of glottal-pulse rate and vocal-tract length (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Smith, D. R. (2010, August). Time to judge sex of speaker: Effect of glottal-pulse rate and vocal-tract length. Presented at 20th International Congress on Acoustics, ICA 2010, Sydney, Australia

When listening to someone's voice: what stimulus duration is required to tell whether the person speaking is a man or a woman; what are the acoustic cues in speech that influence such judgements; and how does manipulations in these acoustic cues infl...

A phase modulation-based ultrasonic communication system using Variable Structure Control (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ma, S., Wilkinson, A. J., & Paulson, K. S. A phase modulation-based ultrasonic communication system using Variable Structure Control. Presented at 2010 IEEE 12th International Conference on Communication Technology

Narrow bandwidth transducers used in existing ultrasonic data communication systems are known to be devices with a high Q resonant response and low coupling to both the electrical drive and acoustic output interfaces. These features limit the speed o... Read More about A phase modulation-based ultrasonic communication system using Variable Structure Control.

GN-DTD: Graphical notation for describing XML documents (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zainol, Z., & Wang, B. (2010, April). GN-DTD: Graphical notation for describing XML documents. Presented at 2nd International Conference on Advances in Databases, Knowledge, and Data Applications, DBKDA 2010

This paper presents a graphical approach to model XML documents based on a Data Type Documentation called Graphical Notations-Data Type Documentation (GN-DTD). GN-DTD allows us to capture syntax and semantic of XML documents in a simple way but preci... Read More about GN-DTD: Graphical notation for describing XML documents.

A translation of state machines to temporal fault trees (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Papadopoulos, Y., Mahmud, N., & Walker, M. (2010, June). A translation of state machines to temporal fault trees. Presented at 2010 International Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks Workshops (DSN-W)

State Machines (SMs) are increasingly being used to gain a better understanding of the failure behaviour of safety-critical systems. In dependability analysis, SMs are translated to other models, such as Generalized Stochastic Petri Nets (GSPNs) or c... Read More about A translation of state machines to temporal fault trees.

Beyond desktop point and click: Immersive walkthrough of aerospace structures (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Courter, D., Springer, J. P., Neumann, C., Cruz-Neira, C., & Reiners, D. (2010, March). Beyond desktop point and click: Immersive walkthrough of aerospace structures. Presented at 2010 IEEE Aerospace Conference, Big Sky, MT, USA

There are a number of 3D applications that have shown the benefits of using visualization techniques for virtual prototyping and education in aerospace engineering. However,these applications typically run only on desktop computers and user interacti... Read More about Beyond desktop point and click: Immersive walkthrough of aerospace structures.

Cost utility analysis of a randomised control trial of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), supervised exercise programme (SEP) and combined treatment (PTA plus SEP) for patients with intermittent claudication (IC) due to femoropopliteal disease (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mazari, F., Abdul Rahman, H., Khan, J., McCollum, P., Gulati, S., Mehta, T., & Chetter, I. Cost utility analysis of a randomised control trial of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), supervised exercise programme (SEP) and combined treatment (PTA plus SEP) for patients with intermittent claudication (IC) due to femoropopliteal disease

Expectations and experiences of child branch nursing students (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wright, J. (2010, February). Expectations and experiences of child branch nursing students. Paper presented at RCN Joint Education Forum Conference

Attrition from nursing programmes is of major concern for both Higher Education Institutions and NHS Trusts. The national figures imply that attrition within healthcare students is below that of students embarking upon other undergraduate programmes...
