'True geography [ ] quickly forgotten, giving away to an adult-imagined universe'. Approaching the otherness of childhood (2008)
Journal Article
Jones, O. (2008). 'True geography [ ] quickly forgotten, giving away to an adult-imagined universe'. Approaching the otherness of childhood. Children's Geographies, 6(2), 195-212. https://doi.org/10.1080/14733280801963193

In this paper I seek to explore the idea of the otherness of childhood. I suggest that there are considerable differences between the becomings of children and the becomings of adults. In the face of these a number of questions need to be asked about... Read More about 'True geography [ ] quickly forgotten, giving away to an adult-imagined universe'.

Environmental citizenship and public attitudes to hydrogen energy technologies (2008)
Journal Article
Flynn, R., Bellaby, P., & Ricci, M. (2008). Environmental citizenship and public attitudes to hydrogen energy technologies. Environmental Politics, 17(5), 766-783. https://doi.org/10.1080/09644010802421539

Some of the principal arguments in the debate about environmental citizenship are examined with reference to the development of hydrogen energy systems. In particular, qualitative evidence is drawn from a study of public attitudes towards hydrogen en... Read More about Environmental citizenship and public attitudes to hydrogen energy technologies.

The effects of variability in bank material properties on riverbank stability: Goodwin Creek, Mississippi (2008)
Journal Article
Thorne, C. R., Parker, C., & Simon, A. (2008). The effects of variability in bank material properties on riverbank stability: Goodwin Creek, Mississippi. Geomorphology, 101(4), 533-543. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geomorph.2008.02.007

Bank retreat is an important area of research within fluvial geomorphology and is a land management problem of global significance. The Yazoo River Basin in Mississippi is one example of a system which is experiencing excessive erosion and bank insta...

Enhanced assumed strain (EAS) and assumed natural strain (ANS) methods for one-point quadrature solid-shell elements (2008)
Journal Article
Valente, R. A., de Sousa, R. J., Choudhry, S., Mahardika, M., Cardoso, R. P., Yoon, J. W., …Valente, R. (2008). Enhanced assumed strain (EAS) and assumed natural strain (ANS) methods for one-point quadrature solid-shell elements. International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, 75(2), 156-187. https://doi.org/10.1002/nme.2250

A reduced enhanced solid-shell (RESS) finite element concept has been suggested recently by Alves de Sousa et al. (Int. J. Numer Meth. Engng 2005; 62:952; Int. J. Numer Meth. Engng 2006; 67:160; Int. J. Plasticity 2007; 23:490). Developments on the '... Read More about Enhanced assumed strain (EAS) and assumed natural strain (ANS) methods for one-point quadrature solid-shell elements.

Using lithium nitrate and pozzolanic glass powder in concrete as ASR suppressors (2008)
Journal Article
Taha, B., & Nounu, G. (2008). Using lithium nitrate and pozzolanic glass powder in concrete as ASR suppressors. Cement and Concrete Composites, 30(6), 497-505. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cemconcomp.2007.08.010

This investigation studies the influence of two different mineral admixtures, lithium nitrate (Li) and pozzolanic glass powder (PGP) on the expansion induced by alkali-silica reaction (ASR). Four numbers of concrete prisms were produced for each conc... Read More about Using lithium nitrate and pozzolanic glass powder in concrete as ASR suppressors.
