Developing and implementing strategy for benefits realisation (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Rooke, J., Hamblett, K., Sapountzis, S., Yates, K., Kagioglou, M., & Lima, J. (2010, September). Developing and implementing strategy for benefits realisation. Presented at Better Healthcare through better infrastructure, Edinburgh, Scotland

Background. The failure of initiatives to adequately plan and deliver benefits is a perceived
problem in the healthcare sector. Problems of strategy formation and successful innovation
are widely discussed in the literature. The concept of benefits... Read More about Developing and implementing strategy for benefits realisation.

The resilience of urban trees (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Trees incorporated into urban environments have both ecological and social values which help sustain public health and well being. What is not known is how resilient urban trees are to the challenges, including climate change, of the 21st century. If... Read More about The resilience of urban trees.

In-situ characterisation of structure borne noise from a building mounted wind turbine (2010)
Presentation / Conference
building mounted wind turbine. Presented at ISMA 2010, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium

Building mounted micro wind turbines (BMWTs) could potentially provide a useful contribution to
renewable energy production but a means of predicting structure-borne sound and vibration is required. A
particular difficulty is that BMWTs can only be... Read More about In-situ characterisation of structure borne noise from a building mounted wind turbine.

Coupling of a time domain boundary element method to compliant surface models (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Hargreaves, J., & Cox, T. (2010, September). Coupling of a time domain boundary element method to compliant surface models. Presented at EAA Euroregio Conference, Ljubljana

The Boundary Element Method (BEM) can be used to predict the scattering of sound in rooms. It reduces the problem of modelling the volume of air to one involving only the surfaces; hence the number of unknowns scales more favourably with problem size...

Optical soliton pulses with relativistic characteristics (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Mcdonald, G., Christian, J., & Hodgkinson, T. (2010, September). Optical soliton pulses with relativistic characteristics. Presented at 5th International Conference on Advanced Optoelectronics & Lasers, CAOL 2010, Sevastopol, Crimea, Ukraine

The slowly varying envelope approximation and the ensuing Galilean boost to a local time frame are near-universal features of conventional scalar pulse models. Here, we will give an overview of our recent progress with a new approach to nonlinear pul... Read More about Optical soliton pulses with relativistic characteristics.
