On the metaphysics of management (2006)
Presentation / Conference
Koskela, L., & Kagioglou, M. (2006, July). On the metaphysics of management. Presented at 14th Annual Conference of the International Group for Lean Construction, Ponteficia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago, Chile

The question about the metaphysics of management is considered especially from the point of view of the subject, acts and object of management. Management is understood holistically, in connection to production, rather than as an independent domain i... Read More about On the metaphysics of management.

Is agile project management applicable to construction? (2006)
Presentation / Conference
Owen, R., Koskela, L., Henrich, G., & Codinhoto, R. (2006, July). Is agile project management applicable to construction?. Presented at 14th Annual Conference of the International Group for Lean Construction, Ponteficia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago, Chile

This paper briefly summarises the evolution of Agile Project Management (APM) and differentiates it from lean and agile production and ‘leagile’ construction.

Critical flow – towards a construction flow theory (2006)
Presentation / Conference
Bertelsen, S., Koskela, L., Henrich, G., & Rooke, J. (2006, July). Critical flow – towards a construction flow theory. Presented at 14th Annual Conference of the International Group for Lean Construction, Ponteficia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago, Chile

This paper introduces the concept of Construction Physics as a more comprehensive way of understanding the construction process from a flow perspective. It establishes a preliminary definition of the term and investigates briefly the present knowledg... Read More about Critical flow – towards a construction flow theory.

The relationship between driving experience and performance in a braking detection task (2006)
Presentation / Conference
Thompson, C., Underwood, G., & Crundall, D. (2006, July). The relationship between driving experience and performance in a braking detection task. Presented at 26th International Congress of Applied Psychology, Athens, Greece

Novice drivers have more accidents compared to experienced drivers. One aim of driving research is to develop a diagnostic test which correlates with driving ability. The current study attempts to distinguish between drivers of varying levels of skil... Read More about The relationship between driving experience and performance in a braking detection task.

Young offenders' perceptions of their experiences under police arrest (2006)
Presentation / Conference
Hazel, N. (2006, July). Young offenders' perceptions of their experiences under police arrest. Presented at British Society of Criminology Conference, Strathclyde University, Glasgow

The youth justice system in England and Wales has adopted the overall aim of “preventing offending” (Crime and Disorder Act 1998). Integral to achieving this aim is the engagement of young people, demonstrated by policy emphasis on ensuring an offen...

SODAR measurements of wind vortex strength and position (2006)
Presentation / Conference
Bradley, S., Mursch-Radlgruber, E., & von Hünerbein, S. (2006, July). SODAR measurements of wind vortex strength and position. Presented at International Symposium for the Advancement of Boundary Layer Remote Sensing, Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany

A method is described for real-time visualisation of aircraft wing-tip vortices based on measurement data from a line array of SODARs. Every 2 s a ‘snapshot’ is taken of the atmospheric vertical velocity field above the SODARs. This provides a grid... Read More about SODAR measurements of wind vortex strength and position.

Calibration of SODARs for wind energy applications (2006)
Presentation / Conference
