Journal Article
Carson, H., Davies, N., & Collins, L. (2021). The hills are alive with … Many different folk! Rationalising and operationalising a professional judgment and decision making approach within mountain leadership. Journal of Adventure Education and Outdoor Learning, 21(4), 311-322. https://doi.org/10.1080/14729679.2020.1784768

Growth in the adventure sector has increased the demands on adventure sport professionals. Satisfying a diverse range of participatory motivations, however, requires an adaptable and flexible workforce. In this discursive paper, we suggested that a n...

Cost, risk, and avoidance of inbreeding in a cooperatively breeding bird (2020)
Journal Article
Leedale, A., Simeoni, M., Sharp, S., Green, J., Slate, J., Lachlan, R., …Hatchwell, B. (2020). Cost, risk, and avoidance of inbreeding in a cooperatively breeding bird. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 117(27), 15724-15730. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1918726117

Inbreeding is often avoided in natural populations by passive processes such as sex-biased dispersal. But, in many social animals, opposite-sexed adult relatives are spatially clustered, generating a risk of incest and hence selection for active inbr...

Linking the Phyllosphere Microbiome to Plant Health (2020)
Journal Article
Liu, H., Brettell, L., & Singh, B. (2020). Linking the Phyllosphere Microbiome to Plant Health. Trends in Plant Science, 25(9), 841-844. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tplants.2020.06.003

The phyllosphere harbors diverse microbial communities that influence ecosystem functioning. Emerging evidence suggests that plants impaired in genetic networks harbor an altered microbiome and develop dysbiosis in the phyllosphere, which pinpoints p...

Alternating N2 gas injection as a potential technique for enhanced gas recovery and CO2 storage in consolidated rocks : an experimental study (2020)
Journal Article
Mohammed, N., Abbas, A., Enyi, G., Suleiman, S., Edem, D., & Abba, M. (2020). Alternating N2 gas injection as a potential technique for enhanced gas recovery and CO2 storage in consolidated rocks : an experimental study. Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technologies, 10(8), 3883-3903. https://doi.org/10.1007/s13202-020-00935-z

The promotion of enhanced gas recovery (EGR) and CO2 storage is still shrouded in contention, and is not well accepted, due to the excessive in-situ CO2 mixing with the nascent natural gas. This adulterates the recovered CH4 and thus, results in a...

Residential neighbourhood classification : an environmentally enhanced approach (2020)
Journal Article
Walford, N., & Armitage, R. (2020). Residential neighbourhood classification : an environmentally enhanced approach. Applied Geography, 121, 102219. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apgeog.2020.102219

National small area classifications in Britain were first produced over 40 years ago using statistics from 1971 Population Census and have now become a regular feature of governmental, academic and commercial analysis of census information. These c... Read More about Residential neighbourhood classification : an environmentally enhanced approach.

Nexus between running costs and building characteristics of commercial buildings: hedonic regression modelling (2020)
Journal Article
Hemba Geekiyanage, M., & Ramachandra, T. (2020). Nexus between running costs and building characteristics of commercial buildings: hedonic regression modelling. Built Environment Project and Asset Management, 10(3), 389-406. https://doi.org/10.1108/BEPAM-12-2018-0156

Purpose Traditionally, early-stage investment decisions on buildings purely based initial capital costs and simply ignored running costs and total lifecycle cost. This was basically due to the absence of estimating models that yield running costs at...

Vulnerability of drug‐resistant EML4‐ALK rearranged lung cancer to transcriptional inhibition (2020)
Journal Article
Paliouras, A., Buzzetti, M., Shi, L., Donaldson, I., Magee, P., Sahoo, S., …Garofalo, M. (2020). Vulnerability of drug‐resistant EML4‐ALK rearranged lung cancer to transcriptional inhibition. EMBO Molecular Medicine, 12(7), e11099. https://doi.org/10.15252/emmm.201911099

A subset of lung adenocarcinomas is driven by the EML4‐ALK translocation. Even though ALK inhibitors in the clinic lead to excellent initial responses, acquired resistance to these inhibitors due to on‐target mutations or parallel pathway alterations...

Analytical modelling of bond-slip failure between epoxy bonded FRP and concrete substrate (2020)
Journal Article

In this paper, a set of explicit theoretical derivations from a generalised bond-slip model for an epoxy bonded fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) sheet to concrete are presented. The derivations address the maximum bond resistance, load-slip response,... Read More about Analytical modelling of bond-slip failure between epoxy bonded FRP and concrete substrate.
