Conference Proceeding
Ruiz Garate, V., Bours, R., & Kietlinski, K. (2012). Numerical modeling of ADA system for vulnerable road users protection based on radar and vision sensing. In 2012 IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium (IV). , (1150-1155). https://doi.org/10.1109/ivs.2012.6232273

The protection of vulnerable road users (VRU) remains one of the most challenging problems for our society and several governmental and consumer organization has set targets to reduce the VRU fatality and injury rates. The automotive industry is, the... Read More about Numerical modeling of ADA system for vulnerable road users protection based on radar and vision sensing.

Large-scale context provisioning: A use-case for homogenous cloud federation (2012)
Presentation / Conference
Liaquat Kiani, S. (2012, July). Large-scale context provisioning: A use-case for homogenous cloud federation. Paper presented at The 6th International Conference on Complex, Intelligent and Software Intensive Systems (CISIS), Palermo, Italy

—The ability to seamlessly bridge clouds across organisational and administrative boundaries will play a vital role in establishing the utility of cloud computing for large-scale collaborative processes. Managing human and environmental contexts acr... Read More about Large-scale context provisioning: A use-case for homogenous cloud federation.

Alpha-case kinetics and surface crack growth in the high-temperature alloy Timetal 834 under creep conditions (2012)
Journal Article
Abdallah, Z., Perkins, K., & Williams, S. (2012). Alpha-case kinetics and surface crack growth in the high-temperature alloy Timetal 834 under creep conditions. Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A, 43(12), 4647-4654. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11661-012-1285-3

Investigations of Timetal 834 crept specimens showed that a uniform alpha-case layer was developed at the surfaces of all specimens tested in air at 823 K to 923 K (550 °C to 650 °C). The formation of this alpha-case was a result of the inward diffus... Read More about Alpha-case kinetics and surface crack growth in the high-temperature alloy Timetal 834 under creep conditions.

High temperature creep behaviour of gamma-titanium aluminides (gamma-TiAl) (2012)
Presentation / Conference
Abdallah, Z., Dixon, M., Whittaker, M., & Bache, M. (2012, July). High temperature creep behaviour of gamma-titanium aluminides (gamma-TiAl). Paper presented at The 12th International Conference on Creep and Fracture of Engineering Materials and Structure, Kyoto, Japan

Compared to conventional titanium alloys, gamma titanium aluminides (gamma-TiAl)offer highly desirable properties to the design engineer, with relatively high specific stiffness and high temperature capability. However, a significant drawback of this... Read More about High temperature creep behaviour of gamma-titanium aluminides (gamma-TiAl).

Bristol Girls Dance Project Feasibility Trial: Outcome and process evaluation results (2012)
Journal Article
Montgomery, A. A., Haase, A. M., Cooper, A. R., Sebire, S. J., Jago, R., Powell, J., …McNeill, J. (2012). Bristol Girls Dance Project Feasibility Trial: Outcome and process evaluation results. International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 9(83), https://doi.org/10.1186/1479-5868-9-83

Background: Many adolescent girls do not engage in sufficient physical activity (PA). This study examined the feasibility of conducting a cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate an after-school dance program to increase PA among 11-12 y...

Illuminated by the smog: Exploring the readability of political websites during the 2010 UK general election (2012)
Presentation / Conference
Lloyd, J., & Dean, D. (2012, July). Illuminated by the smog: Exploring the readability of political websites during the 2010 UK general election. Paper presented at Academy of Marketing Conference 2012, University of Southampton, England

The 59% turnout in the 2001 UK General Election raised serious concerns about democratic legitimacy and resulted in a concerted effort to re-engage citizens’ in electoral participation. Whilst explanations for the decline are many and disparate, ther... Read More about Illuminated by the smog: Exploring the readability of political websites during the 2010 UK general election.

Listening to the tube map: Rhythm and the historiography of urban map use (2012)
Journal Article
Hornsey, R. (2012). Listening to the tube map: Rhythm and the historiography of urban map use. Environment and Planning D: Society and Space, 30(4), 675-693. https://doi.org/10.1068/d1410

This paper is in two parts. In the first half I consider the challenge posed by the recent performative turn in critical cartography to the urban historical geographer. If maps come into being only within the diverse moments of their use, then how ca... Read More about Listening to the tube map: Rhythm and the historiography of urban map use.

Shattering the Bell Jar: Metaphor, Gender, and Depression (2012)
Journal Article
