Frameworks, networks and the UK regional agenda: nature planning for landscapes? (2002)
Journal Article
James, P., & Boothby, J. (2002). Frameworks, networks and the UK regional agenda: nature planning for landscapes?. Landscape Research, 27(4), 325-342. https://doi.org/10.1080/0142639022000023925

Planning at the landscape scale in Britain has had limited application. The origins, implementations and likely outcomes of new approaches to nature planning in Britain in which the spatial scale of planning could be 'landscape enabled' are traced. T...

A model for managing the product development process in house building (2002)
Journal Article
Formoso, C., Tzortzopoulos, P., & Liedtke, R. (2002). A model for managing the product development process in house building. Engineering, Construction and Architectural Management, 9(5-6), 419-432. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.1365-232X.2002.00274.x

The performance of the product development process has a critical influence in the efficiency and duration of building projects, as well as on the quality of the final product. Despite its importance, relatively little attention has been given to the... Read More about A model for managing the product development process in house building.

Sustainability approaches for incarceration architecture (2002)
Journal Article
Al-Hosany, N., & Elkadi, H. (2002). Sustainability approaches for incarceration architecture. Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 6(5), 457-470. https://doi.org/10.1016/S1364-0321%2801%2900013-2

Incarceration architecture by definition negates many aspects of sustainability. Natural and humane values embedded in the penal system can be in many ways ambiguous. Throughout history, it was mainly the role of sociologists to advance theories and... Read More about Sustainability approaches for incarceration architecture.

A dimensionless mobility formulation for evaluation of force and moment excitation of structures (2002)
Journal Article
Moorhouse, A. (2002). A dimensionless mobility formulation for evaluation of force and moment excitation of structures. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 112(3), 972-980. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.1497622

The problem addressed is the simultaneous excitation of a structure by a force and moment. These two forms of excitation are dimensionally incompatible, and so their relative importance is normally difficult to assess. Here, a dimensionless form of t...

Automatic generation of data representations for construction applications (2002)
Journal Article
Aouad, G., Sun, M., & Faraj, I. (2002). Automatic generation of data representations for construction applications. Construction Innovation: Information, Process, Management, 2(3), 151-165. https://doi.org/10.1108/14714170210814748

This paper presents an argument for automating data representations within the construction sector. It questions whether full automation and integration is feasible and achievable considering the complexity of the industry and supply chain problems....
