Sound speed profile structure and variability measured over flat terrain (2006)
Presentation / Conference
Waddington, D., von Hünerbein, S., & Bradley, S. (2006, July). Sound speed profile structure and variability measured over flat terrain. Presented at 13th International Conference on Sound and Vibration, Vienna, Austria

This paper describes a fundamental data base and data-variability guide for outdoor sound propagation models requiring sound speed profiles. The vertical sound speed profile has been measured directly over an extended period at a flat terrain site an...

Preconditioned multiwavelet Galerkin boundary element solution of Laplace's equation (2006)
Journal Article
Amini, S., & Nixon, S. (2006). Preconditioned multiwavelet Galerkin boundary element solution of Laplace's equation. Engineering Analysis with Boundary Elements, 30(7), 523-530. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enganabound.2006.02.003

In this paper, we study the boundary element solution of Laplace's equation using a Galerkin method with multiwavelet basis functions. This leads to significant matrix compression, requiring computation of only θ(n log n). We also develop a block dia...

The Construction Sector and Economic Development: The 'Bon Curve' (2006)
Journal Article
Ruddock, L., & Lopes, J. (2006). The Construction Sector and Economic Development: The 'Bon Curve'. Construction Management and Economics, 24(7), 717-723. https://doi.org/10.1080/01446190500435218

The complexities of the relationship between a country's level of construction activity and its stage of economic development are considerable. Studies over the last three decades, based on macroeconomic analysis, have attempted to model the relation... Read More about The Construction Sector and Economic Development: The 'Bon Curve'.

Journal Article
Akbiyikli, R., Eaton, D., & Turner, A. (2006). Project finance and the private finance initiative (PFI). ˜The œjournal of structured finance, 12(2), 67-75

Private Finance is one method of financing large-scale, capital intensive projects, in which traditionally only the cash flows generated by the project serve as the source of loan repayment and only the project assets serve as collateral for a non-re...
