Presentation / Conference
Coates, S., Arayici, Y., Koskela, L., Kagioglou, M., Usher, C., & O’ Reilly, K. (2010, December). The limitations of BIM in the architectural process. Presented at First International Conference on Sustainable Urbanization (ICSU 2010), Hong Kong, China

Building Informational Modeling has been suggested by some as the panacea to address the interdisciplinary inefficiencies in the construction industry. In many cases the adoption of BIM has numerous potential benefits. But when considering individual... Read More about The limitations of BIM in the architectural process.

The emotive city (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Rooney, J. (2010, December). The emotive city. Presented at Future Cities, London

How can a city, with its connections, people and architecture be viewed as a living cultural artefact? Every city has at least one ArtSpace; larger urban conurbations have a multitude of spaces devoted to art. The ArtSpace is a venue designed to con... Read More about The emotive city.

Background: Maternal obesity is a risk factor of major concern to the UK maternity services in relation to the health outcomes of the mother and her baby. Maternity services have responded by managing care based on identifying potential adverse facto... Read More about The medicalising of obesity during pregnancy: forgetting the woman inside.

The effect of oxygen on the properties of pulsed d.c magnetron sputtered In2O3 films (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Karthikeyan, S., Hill, A., & Pilkington, R. (2010, November). The effect of oxygen on the properties of pulsed d.c magnetron sputtered In2O3 films. Presented at 1st CSE Doctoral School Postgraduate Research Conference, University of Salford, Salford

Thin films that have high transparency and conductivity are used in various applications such as displays, solar cells, electrochromic devices and heatable glasses (Granqvist and Hultåker, 2002;1-5). This present work describes the deposition of tra... Read More about The effect of oxygen on the properties of pulsed d.c magnetron sputtered In2O3 films.

A potential new light source for nuclear fusion (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Rose, C., McDonald, G., & Christian, J. (2010, November). A potential new light source for nuclear fusion. Presented at 1st CSE Doctoral School Postgraduate Research Conference, University of Salford, Greater Manchester

Lasers typically emit light of one or two, well-defined, frequencies (or ‘colours’). However, numerous applications arise if such light can be converted into a broad, multi-frequency (e.g. ‘multi-colour’) comb of laser beams. Applications range from...

Refraction law for self-collimated light beams at material interfaces (2010)
Presentation / Conference
McCoy, E., Christian, J., McDonald, G., Sanchez-Curto, J., & Chamorro-Posada, P. (2010, November). Refraction law for self-collimated light beams at material interfaces. Presented at 1st CSE Doctoral School Postgraduate Research Conference, University of Salford, Greater Manchester, UK

Perhaps the most fundamental electromagnetic phenomenon is the behaviour of light at the interface between dissimilar materials. In fact, the entire field of Optics follows from this single key concept. The reflection and refraction properties of a p...
