Human identification recognition has attracted scientists for many years. During these years, and due to increases in terrorism, the need for such systems has increased much more. The most important biometric systems that have been used during these... Read More about A new linear appearance-based method in face recognition.

Absorption characteristics of a quantum dot array induced intermediate band: Implications for solar cell design (2008)
Journal Article

We present a theoretical study of the electronic and absorption properties of the intermediate band (IB) formed by a three dimensional structure of InAs/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) arranged in a periodic array. Analysis of the electronic and absorption s... Read More about Absorption characteristics of a quantum dot array induced intermediate band: Implications for solar cell design.

Background exposure rates of terrestrial wildlife in England and Wales (2008)
Journal Article

It has been suggested that, when assessing radiation impacts on non-human biota, estimated dose rates
due to anthropogenically released radionuclides should be put in context by comparison to dose rates
from natural background radiation. In order t... Read More about Background exposure rates of terrestrial wildlife in England and Wales.

Environmental regulation and innovation driving ecological design in the UK automotive industry (2008)
Journal Article
ecological design in the UK automotive industry. Business Strategy and the Environment, 17, https://doi.org/10.1002/bse.550

The theory of ecological modernization asserts that economic and environmental goals can
be integrated within a framework of industrial modernity. Its central tenet is that environmental
regulation can stimulate the application of ‘clean’ technolog... Read More about Environmental regulation and innovation driving ecological design in the UK automotive industry.
