Food supply chains and sustainability: Evidence from specialist food producers in the Scottish/English borders (2005)
Journal Article
Ilbery, B., & Maye, D. (2005). Food supply chains and sustainability: Evidence from specialist food producers in the Scottish/English borders. Land Use Policy, 22(4), 331-344. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.landusepol.2004.06.002

Despite an increasing interest in more sustainable forms of land management, few analyses have examined whether 'local' or 'alternative' food supply systems are sustainable in environmental, economic and social terms. Using SUSTAIN's 'sustainable foo... Read More about Food supply chains and sustainability: Evidence from specialist food producers in the Scottish/English borders.

Dynamics of arc phenomena at closure of electrical contacts in vacuum circuit breakers (2005)
Journal Article
Kharin, S. N., Nouri, H., & Amft, D. (2005). Dynamics of arc phenomena at closure of electrical contacts in vacuum circuit breakers. IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science, 33(5 I), 1576-1581. https://doi.org/10.1109/TPS.2005.856528

Dynamic phenomena accompanying electrical contact closure in vacuum circuit breakers are considered as consecutive stages, including breakdown, touch, compression, restitution, bridging, and arcing at bouncing. The hybrid mathematical model is elabor... Read More about Dynamics of arc phenomena at closure of electrical contacts in vacuum circuit breakers.

Understanding the schematic representation of pain and general symptomatology: The contribution of the cognitive miser perspective (2005)
Journal Article
Moss, T., & DiCaccavo, A. (2005). Understanding the schematic representation of pain and general symptomatology: The contribution of the cognitive miser perspective. Cognitive Therapy and Research, 29(5), 511-524. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10608-005-3240-8

In this study we aimed to investigate the contribution of a model of schema use originally from social psychology, the cognitive miser perspective, to understanding pain and illness representations. Recall of pain and general symptom information was...

Simulation of an optical-sensing technique for tracking surgical tools employed in computer-assisted interventions (2005)
Journal Article
Sun, J., Smith, M., Smith, L., & Nolte, L. P. (2005). Simulation of an optical-sensing technique for tracking surgical tools employed in computer-assisted interventions. IEEE Sensors Journal, 5(5), 1127-1130. https://doi.org/10.1109/JSEN.2005.844339

Establishing the accuracy of optical-sensing systems for tools used in surgical procedures is an essential and nontrivial task. This paper shows that an optical-tracking system may be regarded as a cooperative system in that its accuracy is related n...

A framework for classifying and evaluating process architecture methods (2005)
Journal Article

Piecemeal identification, development, and support of an organisation's processes may lead to problems: first, it may be difficult to identify which processes should be supported, and, second, it is unlikely that processes developed piecemeal will ei...

Trying to predict 'dangerous' bladders in children: The area under the curve concept (2005)
Journal Article
Hashim, H., Ellis-Jones, J., Swithinbank, L., Woodward, M., Small, D., Frank, J. D., & Abrams, P. (2005). Trying to predict 'dangerous' bladders in children: The area under the curve concept. Journal of Pediatric Urology, 1(5), 343-347. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpurol.2005.03.006

Objective: Children with neurological and non-neurological lower urinary tract dysfunction normally undergo video urodynamics. One reason is to try to diagnose 'dangerous' bladders. Currently, bladder compliance is used to predict 'dangerous' bladder... Read More about Trying to predict 'dangerous' bladders in children: The area under the curve concept.

Gaining face or losing face? Framing the debate on face transplants (2005)
Journal Article
Huxtable, R., & Woodley, J. (2005). Gaining face or losing face? Framing the debate on face transplants. Bioethics, 19(5-6), 505-522. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-8519.2005.00461.x

An American surgical team has announced its intention to perform the first human facial transplantation. The team has, however, invited further analysis of the ethical issues before it proceeds and in this paper we take up that challenge in seeking t... Read More about Gaining face or losing face?
