Molecular epidemiology of African sleeping sickness (2009)
Journal Article
Hide, G., & Tait, A. (2009). Molecular epidemiology of African sleeping sickness. Parasitology, 136(12), 1491-500. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0031182009990333

Human sleeping sickness in Africa, caused by Trypanosoma brucei spp. raises a number of questions. Despite the widespread distribution of the tsetse vectors and animal trypanosomiasis, human disease is only found in discrete foci which periodically g...

BIM implementation for an architectural practice (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Arayici, Y., Coates, S., Koskela, L., Kagioglou, M., Usher, C., & O’Reilly, K. (2009, October). BIM implementation for an architectural practice. Presented at 26th International Conference on IT in construction, Istanbul Technical University, Turkey

Design needs to be completed in a multidisciplinary environment. Severe issues about data acquisition and management arise during the design development due to the complexity, uncertainty and ambiguity. BIM is a foundational tool for a team based lea...

Effect of boundary slip on the acoustical properties of microfibrous materials (2009)
Journal Article
Umnova, O., Tsiklauri, D., & Venegas Castillo, R. (2009). Effect of boundary slip on the acoustical properties of microfibrous materials. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 126(4), 1850-1861. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.3204087

A variety of new porous materials with unusually small pores have been manufactured in the past decades. To predict their acoustical properties, the conventional models need to be modified. When pore size becomes comparable to the molecular mean free... Read More about Effect of boundary slip on the acoustical properties of microfibrous materials.

Drosophila male sex peptide inhibits siesta sleep and promotes locomotor activity in the post-mated female (2009)
Journal Article
Isaac, R., Li, C., Leedale, A., & Shirras, A. (2009). Drosophila male sex peptide inhibits siesta sleep and promotes locomotor activity in the post-mated female. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 277(1678), 65-70. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2009.1236

Quiescence, or a sleep-like state, is a common and important feature of the daily lives of animals from both invertebrate and vertebrate taxa, suggesting that sleep appeared early in animal evolution. Recently, Drosophila melanogaster has been shown... Read More about Drosophila male sex peptide inhibits siesta sleep and promotes locomotor activity in the post-mated female.

Utilising intranet technologies in construction sector SMEs : building up knowledge bases for extreme weather event risk management (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Ingirige, B., & Wedawatta, G. (2009, September). Utilising intranet technologies in construction sector SMEs : building up knowledge bases for extreme weather event risk management. Presented at CIB Joint International Symposium 2009 - CONSTRUCTION FACING WORLDWIDE CHALLENG ES, Dubrovnik, Croatia

Intranet technologies accessible through a web based platform are used to share and build knowledge bases in many industries. Previous research suggests that intranets are capable of providing a useful means to share, collaborate and transact informa...
