Deprotonation–alkylation of prochiral diarylmethane substrates using sec-BuLi and (−)-sparteine has been carried out in excellent yields and up to 94% ee. A variety of enantioselective alkylations, silylations and stannylations have been performed on... Read More about Asymmetric alkylation of diarylmethane derivatives.

The nucleotide 5'-dGMP and polynucleotide poly(dGdC)·poly(dGdC) have been irradiated by using a 200-fs, 200-nm laser pulses and spectrally characterized by using time-resolved infrared spectroscopy. Under the experimental conditions, 200-nm excitatio... Read More about Monitoring the direct and indirect damage of DNA bases and polynucleotides by using time-resolved infrared spectroscopy.

Maximum length sequence and Bessel diffusers using active technologies (2006)
Journal Article
Cox, T., Avis, M., & Xiao, L. (2006). Maximum length sequence and Bessel diffusers using active technologies. Journal of Sound and Vibration, 289(4-5), 807-829. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsv.2005.02.019

Active technologies can enable room acoustic diffusers to operate over a wider bandwidth than passive devices, by extending the bass response. Active impedance control can be used to generate surface impedance distributions which cause wavefront disp... Read More about Maximum length sequence and Bessel diffusers using active technologies.

Kinetic neutron diffraction study of Nb3Sn phase formation in superconducting wires (2006)
Journal Article
Al-Jawad, M., Manuel, P., Ritter, C., & Kilcoyne, S. (2006). Kinetic neutron diffraction study of Nb3Sn phase formation in superconducting wires. Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 18(4), 1449-1457. https://doi.org/10.1088/0953-8984/18/4/028

The kinetics of Nb3Sn phase formation in commercial multifilamentary wires have been studied as a function of time and temperature using time-resolved, in situ neutron diffraction. This work shows that at higher temperatures the Nb3Sn phase forms in... Read More about Kinetic neutron diffraction study of Nb3Sn phase formation in superconducting wires.

Multiwavelet Galerkin boundary element solution of Laplace's equation (2006)
Journal Article

In this paper, we study the boundary element solution of Laplace's equation using a Galerkin method with multiwavelet basis functions. This leads to significant matrix compression, requiring computation of only θ(n log n) elements. We prove the θ(n l...

The impact of new transport technologies on intraurban mobility : a view from the past. (2006)
Journal Article

This paper reappraises the ways in which travellers in urban areas have interacted with new transport technologies and argues that mobility change over the past century or so may be less than is sometimes assumed. Attention is focused on changes in t... Read More about The impact of new transport technologies on intraurban mobility : a view from the past..

Metabolism of Obe-city: Flows of fat through bodies, cities, and sewers (2006)
Journal Article
Marvin, S., & Medd, W. (2006). Metabolism of Obe-city: Flows of fat through bodies, cities, and sewers. Environment and Planning A, 38(2), 313-324. https://doi.org/10.1068/a37272

Although strategies to tackle obesity have led to renewed debate about the relationship between the body and urban form the (im)mobilities of fat through bodies, cities, and infrastructure reveal a complex web of urban metabolisms. We argue that, to... Read More about Metabolism of Obe-city: Flows of fat through bodies, cities, and sewers.
