Uptake of caesium and strontium radioisotopes by natural zeolites from Mongolia (2006)
Journal Article
Dyer, A., Chimedtsogzol, A., Campbell, L., & Williams, C. (2006). Uptake of caesium and strontium radioisotopes by natural zeolites from Mongolia. Microporous and Mesoporous Materials, 95(1-3), 172-175. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.micromeso.2006.05.013

Mongolian clinoptilolite-rich tuffs were examined for their ability to take up 137-Cs and 90-Sr/90-Y in the presence of competing cations (Na+, K+, Cs+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Sr2+), as nitrate salts, in the concentration range 10−1–10−3 M. Experiments were car... Read More about Uptake of caesium and strontium radioisotopes by natural zeolites from Mongolia.

Reflections on an intervention to motivate student learning through in-semester online assessment (2006)
Journal Article
Laws, E. (2006). Reflections on an intervention to motivate student learning through in-semester online assessment

In my experience engineering degree programmes are relatively demanding in terms of class contact hours which are typically up to a factor of two greater than many equivalent arts based courses. The predominant teaching strategy involves lectures an... Read More about Reflections on an intervention to motivate student learning through in-semester online assessment.

Improving value generation in the design process of industrial projects using CAVT (2006)
Journal Article
Rischmoller, L., Alarcón, L., & Koskela, L. (2006). Improving value generation in the design process of industrial projects using CAVT. Journal of Management in Engineering, 22(2), 52-60. https://doi.org/10.1061/%28ASCE%290742-597X%282006%2922%3A2%2852%29

This paper presents research results that describe how value generation can be improved in the design process of industrial projects when using computer advanced visualization tools (CAVT). The CAVT concept definition, prior studies about impacts of... Read More about Improving value generation in the design process of industrial projects using CAVT.

Shyness and boldness in greater rheas Rhea americana Linnaeus (Rheiformes, Rheidae): the effects of antipredator training on the personality of the birds (2006)
Journal Article
de Azevedo, C., & Young, R. (2006). Shyness and boldness in greater rheas Rhea americana Linnaeus (Rheiformes, Rheidae): the effects of antipredator training on the personality of the birds. #Journal not on list, 23(1), https://doi.org/10.1590/S0101-81752006000100012

The shy-bold continuum is an axis of behavioural variation for some species, but the consequences of shyness and boldness in antipredatory behaviour is unknown. Bold animals have the tendency to be predated first after release in comparison to shy an...

Do captive-born greater rheas Rhea americana Linnaeus (Rheiformes, Rheidae) remember antipredator training? (2006)
Journal Article
de Azevedo, C., & Young, R. (2006). Do captive-born greater rheas Rhea americana Linnaeus (Rheiformes, Rheidae) remember antipredator training?. #Journal not on list, 23(1), https://doi.org/10.1590/S0101-81752006000100011

The antipredator training is a powerful tool now being used to help the reintroduced animals to recognise and escape from their predators. Testing the memory capacity of the animals after antipredator training is important to evaluate if the applicat...

Behavioural responses of captive-born greater rheas Rhea americana Linnaeus (Rheiformes, Rheidae) submitted to antipredator training (2006)
Journal Article
de Azevedo, C., & Young, R. (2006). Behavioural responses of captive-born greater rheas Rhea americana Linnaeus (Rheiformes, Rheidae) submitted to antipredator training. #Journal not on list, 23(1), https://doi.org/10.1590/S0101-81752006000100010

Human activities have been diminishing greater rhea Rhea americana (Linnaeus, 1758) populations throughout their natural distribution. The reintroductions of captive-born greater rheas have been tried but without success; since the individuals reintr...

The clean audio project: Digital TV as assistive technology (2006)
Journal Article
Shirley, B., & Kendrick, P. (2006). The clean audio project: Digital TV as assistive technology. Technology and Disability, 18(1/2006), 31-41

Technology used in Digital TV has the potential to enhance the viewing experience for millions of hard of hearing people. The Clean Audio project commissioned by the Independent Television Commission (ITC), and continued by Ofcom, looks at methods by...

Effect of high-intensity inspiratory muscle training on lung volumes, diaphragm thickness, and exercise capacity in subjects who are healthy (2006)
Journal Article
Enright, S., Unnithan, V., Heward, C., Withnall, L., & Davies, D. (2006). Effect of high-intensity inspiratory muscle training on lung volumes, diaphragm thickness, and exercise capacity in subjects who are healthy. Physical Therapy, 86(3), 345-354. https://doi.org/10.1093/ptj/86.3.345

Background and Purpose: Previous investigations have demonstrated that a regimen of high-intensity inspiratory muscle training (IMT) resulted in changes in ventilatory function and exercise capacity in patients with chronic lung disease, although the...
