A hybrid finite element / finite difference time domain technique for modelling the acoustics of surfaces within a medium (2007)
Journal Article
of surfaces within a medium. Acta acustica united with Acustica, 93(5), 804-809

The paper will explore the interaction of vibrating structures with an acoustic medium such as air by the hy- bridisation of a time integrated sparse node finite element based technique with the finite difference time domain method. In this paper the... Read More about A hybrid finite element / finite difference time domain technique for modelling the acoustics of surfaces within a medium.

The role of daylight in preserving identities in heritage context (2007)
Journal Article
Al-Maiyah, S., & Elkadi, H. (2007). The role of daylight in preserving identities in heritage context. Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 11(7), 1544-1557. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rser.2005.11.004

The narrow alleys and the small neighbourhood squares are the most recognisable urban configuration forms that highlight the fabrics of Old Cairo. Parts of Old Cairo are currently going through major conservation projects. The extent of the success o... Read More about The role of daylight in preserving identities in heritage context.

The behavioural responses of Nile tilapia (< i> Oreochromis niloticus</i>) to anti-predator training (2007)
Journal Article
Mesquita, F., & Young, R. (2007). The behavioural responses of Nile tilapia (< i> Oreochromis niloticus) to anti-predator training. Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 106(1-3), 144-154. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.applanim.2006.06.013

Globally millions of fishes are released, each year, into the wild to supplement diminishing populations. However, research indicates that less than 5% of these individuals survive, and that one of the major causes of mortality is predation. The obje...

A new and robust apple evaluation method using image processing (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Mirzaei, H., & Saraee, M. (2007, August). A new and robust apple evaluation method using image processing. Presented at First Joint Congress on Fuzzy and Intelligent Systems, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Iran

Fruit evaluation is a necessary component of vegetable and fruit sorting system. Recently, machine vision applications for sorting and inspecting some fruit vegetables have been studied by many scientists. In this paper a new and robust computer visi...

Entropy-based epistasy search in SNP case-control studies (2007)
Presentation / Conference
Manzour, A., & Saraee, M. (2007, August). Entropy-based epistasy search in SNP case-control studies. Presented at Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery, 2007. FSKD 2007., Haikou, China

The purpose of gene mapping is to identify the causal genetic regions of a specific phenotype mainly a complex disease. Most complex diseases are believed to have multiple contributing loci often having subtle patterns which make them fairly difficul...

A preliminary study into the effectiveness of stroboscopic light as an aversive stimulus for fish (2007)
Journal Article
Mesquita, F., Godinho, H., de Azevedo, P., & Young, R. (2008). A preliminary study into the effectiveness of stroboscopic light as an aversive stimulus for fish. Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 111(3-4), 402-407. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.applanim.2007.06.014

To reduce fish mortality in nature it is often necessary to expel individuals from areas modified by humans (e.g., dams) where they could be injured or killed. We tested the effectiveness of stroboscopic light as an aversive stimulus for zebrafish (D...

Using stochastic state-space modelling to specify and reduce hydrograph error (2007)
Journal Article
Collier, C., & Robbins, G. (2007). Using stochastic state-space modelling to specify and reduce hydrograph error. Hydrological Processes, 22(8), 1173-1179. https://doi.org/10.1002/hyp.6685

A Bayesian post-processor is used to generate a representation of the likely hydrograph forecast flow error distribution using raingauge and radar input to a stochastic catchment model and its deterministic equivalent. A hydrograph ensemble is so con... Read More about Using stochastic state-space modelling to specify and reduce hydrograph error.
