Pathways of the determinants of unfavourable birth outcomes in Kenya (2004)
Journal Article
Diamond, I., Madise, N., Smith, P., & Magadi, M. (2004). Pathways of the determinants of unfavourable birth outcomes in Kenya. Journal of biosocial science, 36(2), 153-176. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0021932003006163

This paper explores the pathways of the determinants of unfavourable birth outcomes, such as premature birth, the size of the baby at birth, and Caesarean section deliveries, in Kenya using graphical log-linear chain models. The results show that a n... Read More about Pathways of the determinants of unfavourable birth outcomes in Kenya.

The static and dynamic structural bulk properties of fibrous media (2004)
Thesis
Shin, H.-C. The static and dynamic structural bulk properties of fibrous media. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4220617

The structural bulk properties of fibrous materials are investigated. Theoretical models are developed and their predictions are compared to measured data. The properties under both static loading and dynamic excitation are studied.

Macro-scale ex... Read More about The static and dynamic structural bulk properties of fibrous media.

Drugs and drug policies in Oman with special reference to the death penalty (2004)
Thesis
Al-Balushi, R. B. H. Drugs and drug policies in Oman with special reference to the death penalty. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4212442

The problem of drugs in Oman has assumed serious proportions in recent years. It leads to creation of an underground economy and is associated with loss of skilled manpower. However, the problem has several dimensions. It has direct and indirect adve... Read More about Drugs and drug policies in Oman with special reference to the death penalty.

Application of multi-scale assessment and modelling of landfill leachate migration: implications for risk-based contaminated land assessment, landfill remediation, and groundwater protection (2004)
Thesis
