Development of advanced temperature distribution model in hot-mix asphalt patch repair (2017)
Journal Article
Byzyka, J., Chamberlain, D., & Rahman, M. (2017). Development of advanced temperature distribution model in hot-mix asphalt patch repair. Proceedings of the ICE - Transport, 172(4), 199-209. https://doi.org/10.1680/jtran.17.00022

The performance of hot-mix asphalt patch repair is greatly reduced due to inferior compaction at the interface. It is known that the faster loss of temperature at the interface is one of the primary reasons for inferior compaction. A novel controlled...

The healthcare system needs to track and monitor patients’ status and information. One of the most important requirements is that the patient is able to access the service anywhere at any time. Systems are being developed using the Internet to monito... Read More about Transmission of medical messages of patient using control signal of cellular network.

Comparing contact calling between black tufted-ear marmosets (Callithrix penicillata) in a noisy urban environment and in a quiet forest (2017)
Journal Article
Santos, S., Duarte, M., Sousa-Lima, R., & Young, R. (2017). Comparing contact calling between black tufted-ear marmosets (Callithrix penicillata) in a noisy urban environment and in a quiet forest. International Journal of Primatology, 38, 1130-1137. https://doi.org/10.1007/s1076

All habitats have some level of noise but anthropogenic sounds such as those produced by traffic are structurally different from natural sounds, and could cause organisms living in noisy urban areas to modify their vocal communication. We compared te... Read More about Comparing contact calling between black tufted-ear marmosets (Callithrix penicillata) in a noisy urban environment and in a quiet forest.

Definitions of torture range from the emotive to the legal. The media sometimes uses the term in a loose or informal sense – for example, to refer to the pain felt when one's sports team loses a crucial game. This dangerous practice detracts from the...
