Towards sustainable energy: Are there lessons from the history of the early factory system? (2010)
Journal Article
Bellaby, P., Flynn, R., & Ricci, M. (2010). Towards sustainable energy: Are there lessons from the history of the early factory system?. Innovation / Innovation: The European Journal of Social Science Research, 23(4), 333-348. https://doi.org/10.1080/13511610.2010.545276

Development of sustainable energy has been slow. We compare it with a historical example of rapid innovation - the first factory system. The first factory system in the English Derwent Valley mills in the eighteenth century was based not on new techn...

The writing's in the wall: A review of new preliminary applications of electrical resistivity tomography within archaeology (2010)
Journal Article
Mol, L., & Preston, P. R. (2010). The writing's in the wall: A review of new preliminary applications of electrical resistivity tomography within archaeology. Archaeometry, 52(6), 1079-1095. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1475-4754.2010.00516.x

Natural processes are known to cause significant damage to archaeological monuments. In fact, the key to understanding the decay of building materials is the internal movement of water through the mineral matrix, which influences the distribution of...
