Planning and optimisation of 4G/5G mobile networks and beyond (2018)
Thesis
Egena, O. Planning and optimisation of 4G/5G mobile networks and beyond. (Thesis). The University of Salford

As mobile networks continue to evolve, two major problems have always existed that greatly affect the quality of service that users experience. These problems are (1) efficient resource management for users at the edge of the network and those in a n... Read More about Planning and optimisation of 4G/5G mobile networks and beyond.

Reasons for the slow uptake of embodied carbon estimation in the Sri Lankan building sector (2018)
Journal Article
estimation in the Sri Lankan building sector. https://doi.org/10.1999/1307-6892/10008556

Global carbon reduction is not merely a responsibility
of environmentally advanced developed countries, but also a
responsibility of developing countries regardless of their less impact on global carbon emissions. In recognition of that, Sri Lanka... Read More about Reasons for the slow uptake of embodied carbon estimation in the Sri Lankan building sector.

Report
Sherriff, G., Martin, P., & Roberts, B. (2018). Erneley Close passive house retrofit : resident experiences and building performance in retrofit to passive house standard

In May 2015, Eastlands Housing (now One Manchester) completed work on its retrofit to PassivHaus equivalent (EnerPHit) standard of 32 social housing flats in two blocks in Erneley Close, in the Manchester area Gorton. With a budget of £3.1 million, i... Read More about Erneley Close passive house retrofit : resident experiences and building performance in retrofit to passive house standard.

Roll to roll atmospheric pressure plasma enhanced CVD of titania as a step towards the realisation of large area perovskite solar cell technology (2018)
Journal Article

Roll to roll atmospheric pressure plasma enhanced CVD of titania as a step towards the realisation of large area perovskite solar cell technology. Journal of Materials Chemistry C, 6(8), 1988-1995. https://doi.org/10.1039/c8tc00110c

Atmospheric pressure plasma enhanced CVD (AP PECVD) systems have attracted considerable interest
in recent years due to the significant benefits for large area, low cost substrates and low temperature
operation. In this work we describe the use of... Read More about Roll to roll atmospheric pressure plasma enhanced CVD of titania as a step towards the realisation of large area perovskite solar cell technology.

Comparison of Whole Body SOD1 Knockout with Muscle-Specific SOD1 Knockout Mice Reveals a Role for Nerve Redox Signaling in Regulation of Degenerative Pathways in Skeletal Muscle (2018)
Journal Article

Aims: Lack of Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD) in homozygous knockout mice (Sod1−/−) leads to accelerated age-related muscle loss and weakness, but specific deletion of CuZnSOD in skeletal muscle (mSod1KO mice) or neurons (nSod1KO mice) resulted...

Automatic speech-to-background ratio selection to maintain speech intelligibility in broadcasts using an objective intelligibility metric (2018)
Journal Article

While mixing, sound producers and audio professionals empirically set the speech-to-background ratio (SBR) based on rules of thumb and their own perception of sounds. There is no guarantee that the speech content will be intelligible for the general...
