new. From Japanese Haiku poetry, the early poetry of Wordsworth and even aspects
of Shakespeare's Hamlet, to the paintings of Cezanne and Dali, to the novels of... Read More about The dispassionate mirror : towards a transcendental narrative in film practice.

Carpetbaggers and credit unions : a sociological study into the paradox of mutuality in the late twentieth century (2002)
Thesis
Dayson, K. Carpetbaggers and credit unions : a sociological study into the paradox of mutuality in the late twentieth century. (Thesis). University of Salford

This thesis explores the apparent paradox of mutuality in Britain at the turn of the
millennium. It contrasts the relative decline of building societies via demutualisation,
against the continual governmental support for and growth of credit unions... Read More about Carpetbaggers and credit unions : a sociological study into the paradox of mutuality in the late twentieth century.

The influence of shape and sliding distance of femoral head movement loci on the wear of acetabular cups in total hip arthroplasty (2002)
Journal Article
Bennett, D., Orr, J., Beverland, D., & Baker, R. (2002). The influence of shape and sliding distance of femoral head movement loci on the wear of acetabular cups in total hip arthroplasty. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine, 216(6), 393-402. https://doi.org/10.1243/095441102321032184

Wear of the polyethylene acetabular component is the most serious threat to the longterm success of total hip replacements (THRs). Greatly reduced wear rates have been reported for unidirectional, compared to multidirectional, articulation in vitro....

Estimating mechanical cost in subjects with myelomeningocele (2002)
Journal Article
McDowell, B., Cosgrove, A., & Baker, R. (2002). Estimating mechanical cost in subjects with myelomeningocele. Gait & Posture, 15(1), 25-31. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0966-6362%2801%2900179-5

An attempt was made to validate a system of calculating mechanical cost using 3-D motion analysis by using Oxygen cost measurements in 26 subjects with myelomeningocele. The three models investigated were (i) vertical excursion of the centre of mass... Read More about Estimating mechanical cost in subjects with myelomeningocele.

Effect of a rigid ankle-foot orthosis on hamstring length in children with hemiplagia (2002)
Journal Article
Thompson, N., Taylor, T., McCarthy, K., Cosgrove, A., & Baker, R. (2002). Effect of a rigid ankle-foot orthosis on hamstring length in children with hemiplagia. Developmental Medicine and Child Neurology, 44(1), 51-57

Eighteen children with hemiplegia, mean age 8 years 5
months, underwent gait analysis and musculoskeletal
modelling using specially designed software. The maximum
lengths of the hamstrings were determined for each child
walking in and out of an a... Read More about Effect of a rigid ankle-foot orthosis on hamstring length in children with hemiplagia.
