Validation of a mathematical model to estimate turning movements as roundabouts using field data (2007)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In this paper, a mathematical model was presented and used to determine turning movements at roundabouts based on field data. Assumptions were made in order to simplify the model; such as no U_turns from and to the same arm of a roundabout, total tr...

375 THz parametric translation of modulated signal from 1550nm to visible band (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Record parametric frequency-translation of NRZ-modulated signal over 375THz is demonstrated using silica-PCF. The 1550-nm band is mapped to visible 500-nm spectral window, proving the feasibility of all-fiber universal band translator. Both single-ch...

Nanophotonics for information systems integration (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Optical technology plays an increasingly important role in numerous information system applications, including optical communications, storage, signal processing, biology, medicine, and sensing. However, with these rapid technological advances, there... Read More about Nanophotonics for information systems integration.

Optofluidic plasmonics (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In this manuscript we describe the manipulation of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) modes excited in a two dimensional periodic nanohole array scattering structure by tuning the fluid over the metal surface. We describe the fabrication processes for m... Read More about Optofluidic plasmonics.

P16 Healthy passive cigarette smokers have increased pulmonary alveolar permeability (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Background and aim To determine whether passive smoking has a measurable effect on lung function in otherwise healthy subjects? There is current interest concerning passive smoking but no objective evidence showing that it has any impact on lung func...

The EPSRC funded KIM Grand Challenge project to investigate the use of Knowledge and Information Management techniques in the context of the emerging product-service paradigm in engineering is introduced. The paper focuses on the topic
addressed by... Read More about Researching decision support : what do we need to know?.

Granulocyte trafficking in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an inflammatory condition of the airways characterised by intense neutrophilia. We have used sub-imaging doses of 111 indium (111In) labelled granulocytes and high sensitivity whole body c... Read More about Granulocyte trafficking in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

A framework for adaptive visualization (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Although desktop graphical capabilities continually improve,
visualization at interactive frame rates remains a problem for very large datasets or complex rendering algorithms. This is particularly evident in scientific visualization, (e.g., medical... Read More about A framework for adaptive visualization.

ANN based Z-bus loss allocation for pool dispatch in deregulated power system (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper presents a procedure for ANN based Z-bus loss allocation for pool dispatch in a deregulated power system. The procedure is based on the network Z-bus matrix; although all required computations exploit the sparse Y-bus matrix. One innovativ...

Presentation / Conference Contribution

Use of and belief in benefits of therapy and self management interventions in fibromyalgia (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Background: Patient education standards recommend that identifying clients’ perceptions of effective treatment can assist in programme development [1]. This survey investigated the use of 12 strategies commonly recommended in systematic reviews and s...

A16 Using whole-body counting to determine neutrophil trafficking and loss in COPD (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

COPD is an inflammatory condition of the airways characterized by airway neutrophilia. Using a whole-body-counter (WBC) we have assessed neutrophil trafficking and loss in COPD using small activities of 111In-labelled neutrophils. Patients were scann...
