Planning for biodiversity conservation in large urban areas: the Ecological Framework for Greater Manchester (2008)
Journal Article
Kazmierczak, A., & James, P. (2008). Planning for biodiversity conservation in large urban areas: the Ecological Framework for Greater Manchester

Recent emphasis on the need for biodiversity protection outside designated areas has resulted in the growing popularity of ecological networks as a planning tool. However, in urban areas high levels of habitat fragmentation and ever present developme...

CFD modelling of naturally ventilated double-skin facades with venetian blinds (2008)
Journal Article
Ji, Y., Cook, M., Hanby, V., Infield, D., Loveday, D., & Mei, L. (2008). CFD modelling of naturally ventilated double-skin facades with venetian blinds. Journal of Building Performance Simulation, 1(3), 185-196. https://doi.org/10.1080/19401490802478303

This study describes computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling of naturally ventilated double-skin facades
(DSFs) with Venetian blinds inside the facade cavity. The 2D modelling work investigates the coupled convective,
conductive and radiative... Read More about CFD modelling of naturally ventilated double-skin facades with venetian blinds.

City-states and the spatial in-between (2008)
Journal Article

An examination of live-work patterns in England and Wales: why the city state is making a comeback, and what we need to do about it.

Cigarette smoke extract induced cytokine and chemokine gene expression changes in COPD macrophages (2008)
Journal Article

Macrophages are key inflammatory cells in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The transcriptional regulation of inflammatory signalling pathways by cigarette smoke (CS) in COPD macrophages is not well understood. We have studied the effects...

Increased lung CD8 cells and their expression of chemokine receptors CXCR3 and CCR5 have been previously reported in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Alterations of CD8-CCR3 and -CCR4 expression and their ligands in COPD patients have no... Read More about CD8 chemokine receptors in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

A performance management framework for healthcare facilities management (2008)
