The grocers’ warehouse, Castlefield: the first true canal warehouse? (2012)
Book Chapter

This article studies the archaeology and development of the Grocers' Warehouse at the Castelfield terminus of the Bridgewater Canal in Manchester. Built around 1770 it argues that it was the first canal warehouse to use internal split-level loading a... Read More about The grocers’ warehouse, Castlefield: the first true canal warehouse?.

Microsimulation model for motorway merges with ramp-metering controls (2012)
Journal Article
with ramp-metering controls. IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 13(1), 296-306. https://doi.org/10.1109/TITS.2011.2169792

This paper presents a newly developed microsimulation model for motorway merge traffic, focusing on issues that relate to ramp-metering (RM) control and its effectiveness. The model deals with general and more specific drivers’ behavioral tasks, such... Read More about Microsimulation model for motorway merges with ramp-metering controls.

Nanoscale characterization and magnetic reversal mechanism investigation of electrospun NiFe2O4 multi-particle-chain nanofibres (2012)
Journal Article

NiFe2O4 multi-particle-chain nanofibres have been successfully fabricated using electrospinning followed by calcination, and their morphology, chemistry and crystal structure were characterized at the nanoscale. Individual NiFe2O4 nanofibres were fou... Read More about Nanoscale characterization and magnetic reversal mechanism investigation of electrospun NiFe2O4 multi-particle-chain nanofibres.

Comparing the performance of object and object relational database systems on objects of varying complexity (2012)

The diet of wild black-fronted titi monkeys Callicebus nigrifrons during a bamboo masting year (2012)
Journal Article
los Santos, G., Galvao, C., & Young, R. (2012). The diet of wild black-fronted titi monkeys Callicebus nigrifrons during a bamboo masting year. Primates, 53, 265-272. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10329-012-0295-5

Black-fronted titi monkeys, Callicebus nigrifrons, are endemic primates of the Atlantic forest of Brazil, and little is known about their diet and how it is affected by seasonal changes. The aim of this study is to analyze the diet of C. nigrifrons d... Read More about The diet of wild black-fronted titi monkeys Callicebus nigrifrons during a bamboo masting year.

Biologically inspired damage tolerance in braided pneumatic muscle actuators (2012)
