Laboratory studies on granular filters and their relationship to geotextiles for stormwater pollutant reduction (2015)
Journal Article
Paul, P., & Tota-Maharaj, K. (2015). Laboratory studies on granular filters and their relationship to geotextiles for stormwater pollutant reduction. Water, 7(4), 1595-1609. https://doi.org/10.3390/w7041595

Applications of geotextiles within tertiary stormwater treatment systems and for stormwater infiltration can provide a substrate for biofilm formation, enabling biological treatment of contaminants. Geotextiles can serve as an efficient part of storm... Read More about Laboratory studies on granular filters and their relationship to geotextiles for stormwater pollutant reduction.

Deciphering tectonic controls on fluvial sedimentation within the Barmer Basin, India: The lower cretaceous Ghaggar-Hakra formation (2015)
Journal Article
Beaumont, H., Clarke, S., Burley, S., Taylor, A., Gould, T., & Mohapatra, P. (2015). Deciphering tectonic controls on fluvial sedimentation within the Barmer Basin, India: The lower cretaceous Ghaggar-Hakra formation

The Cretaceous of NW India is poorly known from sparse outcrops in Rajasthan and Gujarat. Here, we describe the stratigraphy and sedimentology of outcrops of the Ghaggar-Hakra Formation of probable Lower Cretaceous age from the Sarnoo Hills, eastern...

The importance of regional scenarios for low carbon transitions: The case of Wales (2015)
Journal Article
Georgakaki, A., De Laurentis, C., & Eames, M. (2015). The importance of regional scenarios for low carbon transitions: The case of Wales. International Journal of Critical Infrastructures, 11(2), 97-114. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJCIS.2015.068611

This paper examines the complexities of modelling a regional energy system in the context of Wales, and in the process, examines the role of regions in low carbon transitions. Despite a wealth of studies at national level, it can be challenging to de... Read More about The importance of regional scenarios for low carbon transitions: The case of Wales.

Randomised Controlled Trials, Evidence Hierarchies and Smarter Choices (2015)
Journal Article
Melia, S. (2015). Randomised Controlled Trials, Evidence Hierarchies and Smarter Choices. World Transport Policy and Practice, 21(2), 64-71

A growing body of literature aimed at policymakers as well as researchers criticises the quality of much transport research and advocates a methodological hierarchy with randomised controlled trials at the top as the solution. This article critically... Read More about Randomised Controlled Trials, Evidence Hierarchies and Smarter Choices.

A New Dynamic Rule Activation Method for Extended Belief Rule-Based Systems (2015)
Journal Article
Calzada, A., Liu, J., Wang, H., & Kashyap, A. (2015). A New Dynamic Rule Activation Method for Extended Belief Rule-Based Systems. IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering, 27(4), 880-894. https://doi.org/10.1109/TKDE.2014.2356460

© 2014 IEEE. Data incompleteness and inconsistency are common issues in data-driven decision models. To some extend, they can be considered as two opposite circumstances, since the former occurs due to lack of information and the latter can be regard...

© 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.. River channel sediment dynamics are important in integrated catchment management because changes in channel morphology resulting from sediment transfer have important implications for many river functions. However, a... Read More about Development of ST: REAM: A reach-based stream power balance approach for predicting alluvial river channel adjustment.

Understanding the performance of deep mixed column improved soils - A review (2015)
Journal Article
Abbey, S. J., Ngambi, S., & Ngekpe, B. E. (2015). Understanding the performance of deep mixed column improved soils - A review. International Journal of Civil Engineering and Technology, 6(3), 97-117

The essence of ground improvement is to enhance the engineering properties of weak soils to provide stability and sufficient bearing capacity for construction and other engineering purposes. Deep soil mixing is one method that has been widely employe... Read More about Understanding the performance of deep mixed column improved soils - A review.

Changes in level of household car ownership: The role of life events and spatial context (2015)
Journal Article
