Understanding walking and cycling using a life course perspective (2013)
Thesis

Understanding of how walking and cycling change over time has been restricted to looking at time series data that reveals aggregate change, and time-limited longitudinal studies of individual behaviour.

Geographical and temporal dimensions of Bulgarian attitudes towards the rural environment (2013)
Journal Article

This paper explores certain dimensions of the transformation since 1989 in attitudes towards the environment in one largely rural locality of southwest Bulgaria. There is something of a paradox apparent in rural attitudes and behaviours to the enviro... Read More about Geographical and temporal dimensions of Bulgarian attitudes towards the rural environment.

Exploring changes to cycle infrastructure to improve the experience of cycling for families (2013)
Journal Article

Positive changes to the immediate cycling environment can improve the cycling experience through increasing levels of safety, but little is known about how the intrinsic benefits of cycling might be enhanced beyond this. This paper presents research... Read More about Exploring changes to cycle infrastructure to improve the experience of cycling for families.

Utilising Openair to support multi-stakeholder engagement and the resolution of air quality issues (2013)
Journal Article

For key stakeholders to make informed air quality management decisions it is often necessary for in-depth data analysis to be tailored and concisely presented to meet their needs. Given the complexity of sources, the abundance of relevant data (e.g.... Read More about Utilising Openair to support multi-stakeholder engagement and the resolution of air quality issues.

Axial kinematic response of end-bearing piles to P waves (2013)
Journal Article

Kinematic pile-soil interaction under vertically impinging seismic P waves is revisited through a novel continuum elastodynamic solution of the Tajimi type. The proposed model simulates the steady-state kinematic response of a cylindrical end-bearing... Read More about Axial kinematic response of end-bearing piles to P waves.

Investigations into the relationship between changes in internal moisture regimes and rock surface deterioration in cavernous sandstone features (2013)
Journal Article

Cavernous features commonly develop in sandstone, but their development over time remains enigmatic. It has been suggested that moisture movements within the rock mass play a key role in the location, development and dynamics of cavernous features. I...
