Journal Article
Rome, K., Chapman, J., Williams, A., Gow, P., & Dalbeth, N. (2010). Podiatry services for patients with arthritis: an unmet need. New Zealand Medical Journal, 123(1310), 91-97

Foot problems are extremely common in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
There is ample evidence that foot pain, either alone or as a comorbidity, contributes
significantly to disability. Despite the high prevalence of foot disease in RA, thi... Read More about Podiatry services for patients with arthritis: an unmet need.

This study investigates if there are age- and falls-risk related differences in the length of time individuals need following fixation of a stepping target in order to step accurately onto it. This aim was achieved by manipulating the timing and loca... Read More about Age-related differences in visual sampling requirements during adaptive locomotion.

Automation for value added prepared vegetables – the Brussels sprout (2010)
Journal Article
Davis, S., Gray, J., & Caldwell, D. (2010). Automation for value added prepared vegetables – the Brussels sprout. Trends in Food Science and Technology, 21(3), 138-144. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tifs.2009.09.001

This paper considers automation in the preparation of Brussels sprouts as a value added food item. Within the processing of Brussels sprouts several tasks already have automated solutions but these require that the sprouts be fed to them in an exact...

Towards a high-performance optical gain medium based on bismuth and aluminum co-doped germanate glass (2010)
Journal Article
and aluminum co-doped germanate glass. Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids, 356(6-8), 407-418. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jnoncrysol.2009.11.028

In this paper we present the development process of glass based on bismuth and aluminum co-doped
germanate (GAB) glass. We found the addition of PbO to this glass (GAPB glass) increased the quantum
efficiency (QE). Excitation of GAPB glass at 808 n... Read More about Towards a high-performance optical gain medium based on bismuth and aluminum co-doped germanate glass.

Ethno-religious categories and measuring occupational attainment in relation to education in England and Wales: a multilevel analysis (2010)
Journal Article

It has been suggested that ‘ethnic penalties’ exist in British labour markets, whereby members of ethnic minority groups fail to get into occupations commensurate with their qualifications. Often these analyses of occupational attainment by education...
