Transformative power: a study in human service organization (2006)
Book Chapter
May, T. (2006). Transformative power: a study in human service organization. In H. Beynon, & T. Nichols (Eds.), Patterns of work in the post fordist era :fordism and post-fordism. Cheltenham, Gloucester: Edward Elgar

Although the activities of large industrial and financial corporations dominate economies around the world, their impact on the distribution of employment and the use of new production techniques is much disputed. In this two-volume set, the editors... Read More about Transformative power: a study in human service organization.

Application of the self-organizing map (SOM) to assess the heavy metal removal performance in experimental constructed wetlands (2006)
Journal Article
Lee, B., & Scholz, M. (2006). Application of the self-organizing map (SOM) to assess the heavy metal removal performance in experimental constructed wetlands. Water Research, 40(18), 3367-3374. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.watres.2006.07.027

The self-organizing map (SOM) model was applied to elucidate heavy metal removal mechanisms and to predict heavy metal concentrations in experimental constructed wetlands treating urban runoff. A newly developed SOM map showed that nickel in construc...

An Evaluation of the Potential Offered by a Relevance Vector Classifier in Fault Diagnosis (2006)
Journal Article
Zhang, K., Li, Y., Fan, Y., & Ball, A. (2006). An Evaluation of the Potential Offered by a Relevance Vector Classifier in Fault Diagnosis

The increasing complexity of modern machinery systems demands an effective fault diagnosis strategy with low cost, high efficiency and reliability. This paper reports work which attempts to explore the potential offered by a Relevance Vector Machine...

Transmission photoacoustic spectroscopy of flash-evaporated CuIn0.75Ga0.25Se2 thin films (2006)
Journal Article
Ahmed, E., Pilkington, R., Hill, A., Ali, C., Ahmed, W., & Hassan, I. (2006). Transmission photoacoustic spectroscopy of flash-evaporated CuIn0.75Ga0.25Se2 thin films. Thin Solid Films, 515(1), 239-244. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tsf.2005.12.076

Photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) has proved to be an effective technique for the evaluation of inherent defect population in a wide range of materials for various applications. This paper demonstrates the use of this technique in transmission mode an... Read More about Transmission photoacoustic spectroscopy of flash-evaporated CuIn0.75Ga0.25Se2 thin films.

Generalized theory and application of Stokes parameter measurements made with a single photoelastic modulator (2006)
Journal Article
Liu, Y., Jones, G., Peng, Y., & Shen, T. (2006). Generalized theory and application of Stokes parameter measurements made with a single photoelastic modulator. Journal of Applied Physics, 100(6), 063537. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.2353894

We report in this paper a generalized theory that describes the interaction between a monochromatic light beam and an optical system that includes one photoelastic modulator, one analyzer, and one photodetector. Based on the theory, a detailed four-s... Read More about Generalized theory and application of Stokes parameter measurements made with a single photoelastic modulator.

Carotenoid radical anions and their protonated derivatives (2006)
Journal Article
El-Agamey, A., Edge, R., Navaratnam, S., Land, E., & Truscott, T. (2006). Carotenoid radical anions and their protonated derivatives. Organic Letters, 8(19), 4255-4258. https://doi.org/10.1021/ol061484s

In this study, we report the protonation reactions for astaxanthin and canthaxanthin radical anions in methanol, alkaline methanol, and aqueous 2% Triton X-100 at different pH values. The pKa values for the corresponding alpha-hydroxy radical derivat... Read More about Carotenoid radical anions and their protonated derivatives.

Spatial Kerr soliton collisions at arbitrary angles (2006)
Journal Article
Chamorro-Posada, P., & McDonald, G. (2006). Spatial Kerr soliton collisions at arbitrary angles. Physical Review E, 74(3), 036609. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.74.036609

The theory of spatial Kerr solitons is extended to colliding beams that are neither almost-exactly copropagating nor almost-exactly counterpropagating. Our new Helmholtz formalism yields results that are consistent with the inherent symmetry of the c... Read More about Spatial Kerr soliton collisions at arbitrary angles.
