Fcgamma RIIa polymorphism in systemic lupus erythematosus (1997)
Journal Article
Smyth, L., Snowden, N., Carthy, D., Papasteriades, C., Hajeer, A., & Ollier, W. (1997). Fcgamma RIIa polymorphism in systemic lupus erythematosus. Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 56(12), 744-746. https://doi.org/10.1136/ard.56.12.744

OBJECTIVES Polymorphism of the phagocyte IgG receptor FcγRIIa may modulate immune complex mediated inflammation, particularly when immune complexes contain IgG2. Previous studies suggest that this polymorphism may be an important risk factor for lupu... Read More about Fcgamma RIIa polymorphism in systemic lupus erythematosus.

Conplan : construction planning and buildability evaluation in an integrated and intelligent construction environment (1997)
Thesis
Hassan, Z. Conplan : construction planning and buildability evaluation in an integrated and intelligent construction environment. (Thesis). University of Salford

The lack of a buildability evaluation at the design stage coupled with the separation of the design and construction processes have been acknowledged to cause buildability problems on site. Normally, designers view of their task, is to develop a m... Read More about Conplan : construction planning and buildability evaluation in an integrated and intelligent construction environment.

Transient numerical simulation of heat transfer processes during drilling of geothermal wells (1997)
Thesis
Santoyo-Gutierrez, E. Transient numerical simulation of heat transfer processes during drilling of geothermal wells. (Thesis). University of Salford

The transient thermal history of a well drilling system has been identified as one of the main problems that the geothermal well drilling industry needs to solve. In particular, the estimation of temperatures, in and around a geothermal well during...
