Linking effective population size dynamics to phenotypic traits in the common toad (Bufo bufo) (2019)
Journal Article
in the common toad (Bufo bufo). Conservation Genetics, 20, 987-995. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10592-019-01185-1

The effective size of a population (Ne) determines the retention of neutral genetic variation in isolated populations, and is therefore a key parameter in conservation genetics. However, while our knowledge on the genetic properties of endangered pop... Read More about Linking effective population size dynamics to phenotypic traits in the common toad (Bufo bufo).

Water/oil cresting in horizontal wells : a sensitivity study (2019)
Journal Article
Akangbou, H., Burby, M., & Nasr, G. (2019). Water/oil cresting in horizontal wells : a sensitivity study. International Journal of Oil, Gas and Coal Technology, 21(1), 57-75. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJOGCT.2019.099522

This work presents a rigorous sensitivity analysis on cresting using a physical model, to
investigate the effects of varying inclined section of horizontal well, lateral length in
reservoir and oil viscosity on oil recovered, cumulative of water pr... Read More about Water/oil cresting in horizontal wells : a sensitivity study.

A Novel Character Segmentation-Reconstruction Approach for License Plate Recognition (2019)
Journal Article
Khare, V., Shivakumara, P., Seng Chan, C., Lu, T., Kim Meng, L., Hock Woon, H., & Blumenstein, M. (2019). A Novel Character Segmentation-Reconstruction Approach for License Plate Recognition. Expert systems with applications, 131, 219-239. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eswa.2019.04.030

Developing an automatic license plate recognition system that can cope with multiple factors is challenging and interesting in the current scenario. In this paper, we introduce a new concept called partial character reconstruction to segment characte...

Target cost contracts and the development of collaborative behaviours and value for money in the UK construction industry (2019)
Journal Article
Smith, A., & Wood, G. (2019). Target cost contracts and the development of collaborative behaviours and value for money in the UK construction industry. Journal of international business research and marketing, 4(4), 7-15. https://doi.org/10.18775/jibrm.1849-8558.2015.44.3001

TCCs are seen to be a procurement model capable of achieving value for money through aligning the objectives of the parties to reduce costs. The use of Target Cost Contracts (TCCs) within the UK construction industry has increased dramatically over t...

Three-dimensional bioconvection nanofluid flow from a bi-axial stretching sheet with anisotropic slip (2019)
Journal Article
Amirsom, N., Uddin, M., Basir, M., Ismail, A., Beg, O., & Kadir, A. (2019). Three-dimensional bioconvection nanofluid flow from a bi-axial stretching sheet with anisotropic slip. Sains malaysiana, 48(5), 1137-1149. https://doi.org/10.17576/jsm-2019-4805-23

A theoretical study is presented for three-dimensional flow of bioconvection nanofluids containing gyrotactic microorganisms over a bi-axial stretching sheet. The effects of anisotropic slip, thermal jump and mass slip are considered in
the mathemat... Read More about Three-dimensional bioconvection nanofluid flow from a bi-axial stretching sheet with anisotropic slip.

A framework for auralization of boundary element method simulations including source and receiver directivity (2019)
Journal Article

The Boundary Element Method (BEM) is a proven numerical prediction tool for computation of room acoustic transfer functions, as are required for auralization of a virtual space. In this paper it is validated against case studies drawn from the ‘Groun...

Design of a inhouse garden system (2019)
Journal Article
Sundaram, A. (2019). Design of a inhouse garden system. Journal of Computational and Theoretical Nanoscience, 16(4), 1690-1695. https://doi.org/10.1166/jctn.2019.8099

In house garden system are used in offices, work places and homes to increase the aesthetics, elicit pleasure which in turn increase our experience qualitatively to keep ourselves energetic and fresh from mundane jobs. These plants clean the air natu... Read More about Design of a inhouse garden system.
