Journal Article
Ferry, N., Mulligan, E., Stewart, C., Tabashnik, B., Port, G., & Gatehouse, A. (2006). Prey-mediated effects of transgenic canola on a beneficial, non-target, carabid beetle. Transgenic Research, 15(4), 501-14. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11248-006-0021-4

Transgenic plants producing insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) can control some major insect pests and reduce reliance on sprayed insecticides. However, large scale adoption of this technology has raised concerns about potential n... Read More about Prey-mediated effects of transgenic canola on a beneficial, non-target, carabid beetle..

On the modeling of sound propagation over multi-impedance discontinuities using a semiempirical diffraction formulation (2006)
Journal Article
Lam, Y., & Monazzam, M. (2006). On the modeling of sound propagation over multi-impedance discontinuities using a semiempirical diffraction formulation. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 120(2), 686-698. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.2216905

Several approximate extensions of the semi-empirical De Jong model [ De Jong et al., J. Sound and Vib. 86, 23–46 (1983) ] are considered for the prediction of sound propagation over multiple impedance discontinuities. A limitation in the original for...

On the metaphysics of management (2006)
Presentation / Conference
Koskela, L., & Kagioglou, M. (2006, July). On the metaphysics of management. Presented at 14th Annual Conference of the International Group for Lean Construction, Ponteficia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago, Chile

The question about the metaphysics of management is considered especially from the point of view of the subject, acts and object of management. Management is understood holistically, in connection to production, rather than as an independent domain i... Read More about On the metaphysics of management.

Is agile project management applicable to construction? (2006)
Presentation / Conference
Owen, R., Koskela, L., Henrich, G., & Codinhoto, R. (2006, July). Is agile project management applicable to construction?. Presented at 14th Annual Conference of the International Group for Lean Construction, Ponteficia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago, Chile

This paper briefly summarises the evolution of Agile Project Management (APM) and differentiates it from lean and agile production and ‘leagile’ construction. The significant benefits being realized through employment of APM within the information sy... Read More about Is agile project management applicable to construction?.
