Theory and applications of the multiwavelets for compression of boundary integral operators (2004)
Thesis
Nixon, S. Theory and applications of the multiwavelets for compression of boundary integral operators. (Thesis). University of Salford, UK

In general the numerical solution of boundary integral equations leads to full coefficient
matrices. The discrete system can be solved in O(N2) operations by iterative solvers of
the Conjugate Gradient type. Therefore, we are interested in fast met... Read More about Theory and applications of the multiwavelets for compression of boundary integral operators.

Postgraduate perspectives of distance e-learning : a qualitative case study of online distance learning in occupational safety and health (2004)
Thesis

Occupation-related suicide: The impact of the Census Act and the Population (Statistics) Act on research based on individual-level mortality data (2004)
Thesis
Milwid, L. Occupation-related suicide: The impact of the Census Act and the Population (Statistics) Act on research based on individual-level mortality data. (Dissertation). University of Salford

A comprehensive review of the literature reveals a deficit in explanation for the differences in suicide-risk between occupations. Two studies of occupation-related suicide in England and Wales (Kelly et al, 1995; Kelly & Bunting, 1998) are unusual i...

Power output of the lower limb during variable inertial loading : A comparison between methods using single and repeated contractions (2004)
Journal Article
Pearson, S., Cobbold, M., & Harridge, S. (2004). Power output of the lower limb during variable inertial loading : A comparison between methods using single and repeated contractions. European Journal of Applied Physiology, 92(1-2), 176-181. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00421-004-1046-0

The power-inertial load relationship of the lower limb muscles was studied during a single leg thrust using the Modified Nottingham Power Rig (mNPR) and during cycling exercise in nine young male subjects. The relationship between peak power and iner... Read More about Power output of the lower limb during variable inertial loading : A comparison between methods using single and repeated contractions.

Towards a model of stimulants and obstacles to individual creativity in construction (2004)
Thesis
Dickinson, M. Towards a model of stimulants and obstacles to individual creativity in construction. (Dissertation). University of Salford

One issue that might account for successful innovation in construction is the work
environment for creative thinking and idea generation. This dissertation aims to
