Lateral load bearing capacity model for piles in cohesive soils (2014)
Book Chapter
Ahangar Asr, A., Javadi, A., Johari, A., & Chen, Y. (2014). Lateral load bearing capacity model for piles in cohesive soils. In A. Javadi, & M. Hussain (Eds.), Proceedings of the 22nd UK National Conference of the Association for Computational Mechanics in Engineering (264-267). University of Exeter

In this research work an evolutionary approach is proposed to develop a structured polynomial model for predicting the lateral load bearing capacity of piles in undrained conditions. The proposed polynomial regression technique is an evolutionary dat... Read More about Lateral load bearing capacity model for piles in cohesive soils.

Bioart (2014)
Book Chapter
Miah, A. (2014). Bioart. In R. Ranisch, & S. Sorgner (Eds.), Post- and transhumanism : an introduction (227-240). Berlin: Peter Lang

This chapter makes explicit the association of certain art forms and art works to trans- and posthumanist ideas, which have become constitutive of the political, cultural and philosophical differences and similarities that exist between these conc... Read More about Bioart.

Using independent component analysis to obtain feature space for reliable ECG Arrhythmia classification (2014)
Book Chapter
Sarfraz, M., Khan, A., & Li, F. (2014). Using independent component analysis to obtain feature space for reliable ECG Arrhythmia classification. In 2014 IEEE International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedicine (BIBM) (62-67). IEEE. https://doi.org/10.1109/BIBM.2014.6999249

Electrocardiogram (ECG) reflects the activities of the human heart and reveals hidden information on its structure and behaviour. The information is extracted to gain insights that assist explanation and identification of diverse pathological conditi...

Challenges in the implementation of BIM for FM—Case Manchester Town Hall complex (2014)
Book Chapter
Kiviniemi, A., & Codinhoto, R. (2014). Challenges in the implementation of BIM for FM—Case Manchester Town Hall complex. In Computing in Civil and Building Engineering (2014) (665-672). American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE). https://doi.org/10.1061/9780784413616.083

An often-introduced claim is that BIM can be a powerful tool for facility managers to improve buildings' performance and manage operations more efficiently throughout the life-cycle of buildings. Although this claim has been common since the early in... Read More about Challenges in the implementation of BIM for FM—Case Manchester Town Hall complex.

Recent applications of number-theoretic sequences in audio and acoustics (2014)

Application of a morphing wing technology on Hydra Technologies unmanned aerial system UAS-S4 (2014)
Book Chapter
Sugar-Gabor, O., Simon, A., Koreanschi, A., & Botez, R. (2014). Application of a morphing wing technology on Hydra Technologies unmanned aerial system UAS-S4. In ASME 2014 International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition. Volume 1: Advances in Aerospace Technology. ASME. https://doi.org/10.1115/IMECE2014-37619

The paper describes the application of a morphing wing technology on the wing of an Unmanned Aerial System (UAS). The morphing wing concept works by replacing a part of the rigid wing upper and lower surfaces with a flexible skin whose shape can be d...
