A profiled structure with improved low frequency absorption. (2006)
Journal Article
Wu, T., Cox, T., & Lam, Y. (2006). A profiled structure with improved low frequency absorption. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 110(6), 3064-3070. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.1412443

It is possible to obtain good absorption from Schroeder diffusers if suitable alterations to the design are made. Interestingly, previous work has shown that good absorption appears possible below the design frequency when the diffusers are poorly co...

Effects of porous covering on sound attenuation by periodic arrays of cylinders. (2006)
Journal Article
Umnova, O., Attenborough, C., & Linton, J. (2006). Effects of porous covering on sound attenuation by periodic arrays of cylinders. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 119(1), 278-284. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.2133715

The acoustic transmission loss of a finite periodic array of long rigid cylinders, without and with porous absorbent covering, is studied both theoretically and in the laboratory. A multiple scattering model is extended to allow for the covering and... Read More about Effects of porous covering on sound attenuation by periodic arrays of cylinders..

ICT in the Construction Sector: Computing the Economic Benefits (2006)
Journal Article
Ruddock, L. (2006). ICT in the Construction Sector: Computing the Economic Benefits. International Journal of Strategic Property Management, 10(1), 39-50

Any assessment of the extent of the economic benefits for the construction sector from technological change is difficult to determine accurately but in view of the construction sector’s contribution to a nation’s economy, it is important that the imp...

Engaging learners: the development of effective e-learning applications for students of the built environment (2006)
Journal Article
Dowdle, D. (2006). Engaging learners: the development of effective e-learning applications for students of the built environment. Architectural Engineering and Design Management, 2(1-2), 31-48

E-learning does not appear to have been as widely adopted by academics within the built environment discipline as one might have expected. The literature review and research presented in this paper put forward an argument for the introduction of e-le...

Researching the Sustainable City: Three Modes of Interdisciplinarity. (2006)
Journal Article
Evans, R., & Marvin, S. (2006). Researching the Sustainable City: Three Modes of Interdisciplinarity. Environment and Planning A, 38(6), 1009 -1028. https://doi.org/10.1068/a37317

In this paper we explore the practice of interdisciplinarity by examining how the UK research councils addressed the problem of the sustainable city during the 1990s. In developing their research programmes, the councils recognised that the problems... Read More about Researching the Sustainable City: Three Modes of Interdisciplinarity..

Science, Society and the university: a paradox of values (2006)
Journal Article
Perry, B. (2006). Science, Society and the university: a paradox of values. Social Epistemology, 20(3-4), 210-219. https://doi.org/10.1080/02691720600879798

The existence of conflicting messages on the role and status of the university is linked to a wider paradox of values about science in society. Value is attributed to science and assumed by the university in the context of the move to knowledge-based... Read More about Science, Society and the university: a paradox of values.
