The three dimensional behaviour of masonry arches (2004)
Thesis

Most masonry arch structures behave as complex 3-dimensional structures. For the convenience of the analyst such structures are usually modelled as 2-dimensional structures with the effects of their 3-dimensional characteristics being taken into acco...

Technology‐based learning and the project manager (2004)
Journal Article
Ellis, R., Wood, G., & Thorpe, T. (2004). Technology‐based learning and the project manager. Engineering, Construction and Architectural Management, 11(5), 358-365. https://doi.org/10.1108/09699980410558557

Construction is a project‐oriented industry that benefits from both the technical and interpersonal skills that a project manager has to offer. Increasingly, project management is viewed as being an integrated process relevant throughout the project... Read More about Technology‐based learning and the project manager.

A study of the effectiveness of detailed balance in avoiding convergence in PBIL (2004)
Book Chapter
Correa, E., & Shapiro, J. (2004). A study of the effectiveness of detailed balance in avoiding convergence in PBIL. In A. Lotfi, & J. Garibaldi (Eds.), Applications and Science in Soft Computing (255-260). Springer Berlin Heidelberg. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-45240-9

Estimation of distribution algorithms (EDAs) are a class of evolutionary algorithms that use statistical information to guide the exploration of the search space. A prominent problem in EDAs is the loss of variability as the search progresses. This o... Read More about A study of the effectiveness of detailed balance in avoiding convergence in PBIL.

Diblock polyampholytes grafted onto spherical particles : Monte Carlo simulation and lattice mean-field theory (2004)
Journal Article

Spherical brushes composed of diblock polyampholytes (diblock copolymers with oppositely charged
blocks) grafted onto solid spherical particles in aqueous solution are investigated by using the primitive
model solved with Monte Carlo simulations an... Read More about Diblock polyampholytes grafted onto spherical particles : Monte Carlo simulation and lattice mean-field theory.

Transient spray cooling of top and bottom moving high temperature surfaces (2004)
Thesis

High pressure water spray cooling, widely used in various industrial process
applications due to high impact force and high dissipating ability which is required in
various manufacturing processes such as scale removal from oil wells, scale removal... Read More about Transient spray cooling of top and bottom moving high temperature surfaces.
