A review of critical project management success factors (CPMSF) for sustainable social housing in Nigeria (2014)
Journal Article
Ihuah, P., Kakulu, I., & Eaton, D. (2014). A review of critical project management success factors (CPMSF) for sustainable social housing in Nigeria. International Journal for Sustainable Built Environment, 3(1), 62-71. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijsbe.2014.08.001

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to investigate and establish the Critical Project Management Success Factors (CPMSF) for the sustainable social (public) housing estates’ delivery/provision in Nigeria. The current housing estate deficit faced in... Read More about A review of critical project management success factors (CPMSF) for sustainable social housing in Nigeria.

Where to nest? Ecological determinants of chimpanzee nest abundance and distribution at the habitat and tree species scale (2014)
Journal Article
Carvalho, J., Meyer, C. F., Vicente, L., & Marques, T. (2015). Where to nest? Ecological determinants of chimpanzee nest abundance and distribution at the habitat and tree species scale. American Journal of Primatology, 77(2), 186-199. https://doi.org/10.1002/ajp.22321

Conversion of forests to anthropogenic land‐uses increasingly subjects chimpanzee populations to
habitat changes and concomitant alterations in the plant resources available to them for nesting and
feeding. Based on nest count surveys conducted dur... Read More about Where to nest? Ecological determinants of chimpanzee nest abundance and distribution at the habitat and tree species scale.

Single interfaces and coupled-waveguide arrays: off-axis nonparaxial analyses (2014)
Presentation / Conference
McCoy, E., Christian, J., McDonald, G., Sanchez-Curto, J., & Chamorro-Posada, P. (2014, September). Single interfaces and coupled-waveguide arrays: off-axis nonparaxial analyses. Presented at 5th European Optical Society Annual Meeting, Berlin, Germany

We report on our most recent results concerning arbitrary-angle spatial soliton
refraction at the interface between dissimilar dielectrics, each of which comprises
both X(3)and X(5) susceptibilities. Attention is also paid to the oblique injectio... Read More about Single interfaces and coupled-waveguide arrays: off-axis nonparaxial analyses.

MRAR : mining multi-relation association rules (2014)
Journal Article
Ramezani, R., Saraee, M., & Nematbakhsh, M. (2014). MRAR : mining multi-relation association rules. Journal of computing and security (Online), 1(2), 133-158

In this paper, we introduce a new class of association rules (ARs) named
“Multi-Relation Association Rules” which in contrast to primitive ARs (that
are usually extracted from multi-relational databases), each rule item consists
of one entity and... Read More about MRAR : mining multi-relation association rules.

A fuzzy method for discovering cost-effective actions from data (2014)
Journal Article
Kalanat, N., Shamsinejadbabaki, P., & Saraee, M. (2014). A fuzzy method for discovering cost-effective actions from data. Journal of Intelligent and Fuzzy Systems, 28(2), 757-765. https://doi.org/10.3233/IFS-141357

Data mining techniques are often confined to the delivery of frequent patterns and stop short of suggesting how to act on these patterns for business decision-making. They require human experts to post-process the discovered patterns manually. Theref... Read More about A fuzzy method for discovering cost-effective actions from data.

A combined model for improving estimation of atmospheric boundary layer height (2014)
Journal Article
Bachtiar, V., Davies, F., & Danson, F. (2014). A combined model for improving estimation of atmospheric boundary layer height. Atmospheric Environment, 98, 461-473. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.atmosenv.2014.09.028

Atmospheric boundary layer height is one of the most important parameters in atmospheric dispersion modelling because it has a large effect on predicted air quality. Comparisons between Atmospheric Dispersion Modelling System, version 4 (ADMS 4) and... Read More about A combined model for improving estimation of atmospheric boundary layer height.

Lateral load bearing capacity modelling of piles in cohesive soils in undrained conditions; an intelligent evolutionary approach (2014)
Journal Article
Ahangar Asr, A., Javadi, A., Johari, A., & Chen, Y. (2014). Lateral load bearing capacity modelling of piles in cohesive soils in undrained conditions; an intelligent evolutionary approach. Applied Soft Computing, 24, 822-828. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.asoc.2014.07.027

The complex behaviour of fine-grained materials in relation with structural elements has received noticeable attention from geotechnical engineers and designers in recent decades. In this research work an evolutionary approach is presented to create...
