A new approach to reduce membrane and transverse shear locking for one-point quadrature shell elements: Linear formulation (2006)
Journal Article

In the last decade, one-point quadrature shell elements attracted many academic and industrial researchers because of their computational performance, especially if applied for explicit finite element simulations. Nowadays, one-point quadrature finit... Read More about A new approach to reduce membrane and transverse shear locking for one-point quadrature shell elements: Linear formulation.

Displacing remedies from environmental to planning law: The enforcement of Part IIA Environmental Protection Act 1990 (2006)
Journal Article

A analysis of the findings of fieldwork into the local authority enforcement of statutory inspection powers, highlighting the emphasis placed on solutions to contamination through planning legislation, rather than specialised environmental legislatio...

Proximal hamstring rupture, restoration of function without surgical intervention: A case study on myofascial trigger point pressure release (2006)
Journal Article

Proximal hamstring rupture is a rare occurrence, although documented in the literature during water skiing. This case study highlights the treatment of a proximal hamstring rupture whilst water skiing. In this case, physiotherapy was the main therape...

Examination of internal consistency and construct validity of scores on the parental attachment scale: preliminary psychometric results (2006)
Journal Article

The Parental Attachment Scale was developed through exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and validation of a final 23-item scale. Comparison with existing parental attachment measures and a subliminally primed lexical decision t...

Associations of childhood and adulthood height and the components of height with insulin-like growth factor levels in adulthood: A 65-year follow-up of the Boyd Orr cohort (2006)
Journal Article

Context: Taller individuals with longer legs have a higher risk of cancer but a lower risk of coronary heart disease. Objective: We investigated whether childhood height and its components are associated with the IGF system in adulthood. Design and P...
