Connecting design, emotion, and behaviour in urban soundscape (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Carvalho, M., Davies, W., & Fazenda, B. (2019, July). Connecting design, emotion, and behaviour in urban soundscape. Poster presented at SPARC 2019 Fake News and Home Truths, MediaCity UK, Salford

With the purpose of assisting developments in urban soundscape design, the present research investigates how soundscapes can influence emotions and behaviours in public spaces aiming to find healthy reactions to “exciting” sonic environments. In the... Read More about Connecting design, emotion, and behaviour in urban soundscape.

Dynamic sequential box modelling of inhalation exposure potential in multi-bed patient ward : validation and baseline case studies (2019)
Journal Article
Oladokun, M., & Lin, Z. (2019). Dynamic sequential box modelling of inhalation exposure potential in multi-bed patient ward : validation and baseline case studies. Building and Environment, 161, 1-14. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.buildenv.2019.106241

Macro-models provide a fast simulation tool for exposure assessments and design of control interventions, yet there are concerns about their accuracies. Single-zone based models are known to be inadequate for predicting exposure to near-source emissi...

Harnessing the real estate market for equitable affordable housing provision through land value capture: insights from San Francisco City, California (2019)
Journal Article
capture: insights from San Francisco City, California. Sustainability, 11(13), 3649. https://doi.org/10.3390/su11133649

Affordable housing remains a serious problem in many countries. Even as the housing
affordability crisis deepens, most cities continue to exhibit robust real estate markets with high
property prices. The low-income and poor households are unable to... Read More about Harnessing the real estate market for equitable affordable housing provision through land value capture: insights from San Francisco City, California.

Disentangling dust and sand deposition using a peat record in CE Europe (northern Romania): a novel multiproxy analysis (2019)
Journal Article

Aeolian sediments play an important role in the global climatic system and occur in the atmosphere due to soil and bedrock erosion. Here, we applied three different methods: geochemical (XRF), manual and laser-based particle size analysis to an ombro...

Electroencephalography reflects the activity of sub-cortical brain regions during approach-withdrawal behaviour while listening to music (2019)
Journal Article
Daly, I., Williams, D., Hwang, F., Kirke, A., Miranda, E., & Nasuto, S. (2019). Electroencephalography reflects the activity of sub-cortical brain regions during approach-withdrawal behaviour while listening to music. Scientific reports, 9(1), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-45105-2

The ability of music to evoke activity changes in the core brain structures that underlie the experience of emotion suggests that it has the potential to be used in therapies for emotion disorders. A large volume of research has identified a network...

What can independent research for Mesothelioma achieve to treat this orphan disease? (2019)
Journal Article
Guazzelli, A., Meysami, P., Bakker, E., Bonanni, E., Demonacos, C., Krstic- Demonacos, M., & Mutti, L. (2019). What can independent research for Mesothelioma achieve to treat this orphan disease?. Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs, 28(8), 719-732. https://doi.org/10.1080/13543784.2019.1638363

Introduction: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare neoplasm with a poor prognosis, as current therapies are ineffective. Despite the increased understanding of the molecular biology of mesothelioma, there is still a lack of drugs that drama...
