User control of adaptation in an automated web-based learning environment (2002)
Presentation / Conference
Brailsford, T., Ashman, H., Stewart, C., Zakaria, M. R., & Moore, A. (2002, November). User control of adaptation in an automated web-based learning environment. Paper presented at First International Conference on Information Technology & Applications (ICITA 2002). Bathurst, Australia, Bathurst, Australia

Adaptive hypertext provides a powerful approach to the problems of providing information that is appropriate to the diverse needs of users, and it is most commonly implemented in education. In this paper we describe how an experimental XML- based ada... Read More about User control of adaptation in an automated web-based learning environment.

Sensors for early warning of post-harvest spoilage in potato tubers (2002)
Presentation / Conference
de Lacy Costello, B., Ewen, R., Gunson, H., Ratcliffe, N. M., & Spencer-Phillips, P. T. (2002, November). Sensors for early warning of post-harvest spoilage in potato tubers. Presented at BCPC Conference 2002 - Pests and Diseases, Brighton, UK

Post-harvest spoilage of potato tubers results in approximately 9 million annual loss in the UK alone. In this paper, we report work completed with funding from the British Potato Council to develop an electronic sensor system (e-nose) to enable the...

The stability of a superfluid rotating jet (2002)
Journal Article
Henderson, K., & Barenghi, C. F. (2002). The stability of a superfluid rotating jet. Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and General, 35(45), 9645-9655. https://doi.org/10.1088/0305-4470/35/45/311

We consider the linear stability of a cylindrical rotating jet of pure superfluid held together by surface tension. A necessary and sufficient condition for stability to axisymmetric disturbances is derived which corresponds to that of a classical in... Read More about The stability of a superfluid rotating jet.

Highly sensitive mixed oxide sensors for the detection of ethanol (2002)
Journal Article
de Lacy Costello, B., Ewen, R., Guernion, N., & Ratcliffe, N. M. (2002). Highly sensitive mixed oxide sensors for the detection of ethanol. Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, 87(1), 207-210. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0925-4005%2802%2900220-4

Sensors consisting of mixtures of tin dioxide and zinc oxide powders in a range of proportions were constructed. Each mixture was applied to an electrode-bearing alumina substrate either as a paste, or by screen printing. The responses of these senso...

A structural and mechanistic investigation of the mono-O-phenylation of diols with BiPh3(OAc)2 (2002)
Journal Article
Coles, S. J., Costello, J. F., Hursthouse, M. B., & Smith, S. (2002). A structural and mechanistic investigation of the mono-O-phenylation of diols with BiPh3(OAc)2. Journal of Organometallic Chemistry, 662(1-2), 98-104. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0022-328X%2802%2901895-8

The mono-O-phenylation of enantiomerically pure pinanediol 2 using BiPh3(OAc)2 1 and the biphenyl-2,2′-ylenephenylbismuth analogue 9 has been investigated. It is postulated that reductive elimination at the trigonal bipyramidal bismuth (V) centre of...

Gender wage differentials and discrimination in the New South Africa (2002)
Journal Article
Hinks, T. (2002). Gender wage differentials and discrimination in the New South Africa. Applied Economics, 34(16), 2043-2052. https://doi.org/10.1080/00036840210124991

Research into discrimination within South Africa (SA) has focused on racial issues, with gender issues being largely ignored. This study aims to estimate gender wage differentials and through decomposition analysis understand the different problems f...

Evidence-based practice in health and social care: Where are we now? (2002)
Journal Article
Swinkels, A., Albarran, J., Means, R., Mitchell, T., & Stewart, M. (2002). Evidence-based practice in health and social care: Where are we now?. Journal of Interprofessional Care, 16(4), 335-347. https://doi.org/10.1080/1356182021000008265

This paper explores evidence-based practice (EBP) in health and social care in the UK from the individual perspectives of professionals in physiotherapy, midwifery, nursing and social care. The present interest in EBP emerges as a natural derivative... Read More about Evidence-based practice in health and social care: Where are we now?.
