Use Of Participatory Apps In Contact Tracing: Options And Implications for Public Health, Privacy and Trust
Preprint / Working Paper
Buchanan, B., Imran, M., Pagliari, C., Pell, J., & Rimpiläinen, S. Use Of Participatory Apps In Contact Tracing: Options And Implications for Public Health, Privacy and Trust. Glasgow

On December 31st, 2019, the World Health Organisation received a report from the Chinese government detailing a cluster of cases of ‘pneumonia of unknown origin’, later identified as novel coronavirus. The virus, now referred to as COVID-19, quickly... Read More about Use Of Participatory Apps In Contact Tracing: Options And Implications for Public Health, Privacy and Trust.

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) root system architecture adaptation to initial soil moisture improves seed development in dry-down conditions
Preprint / Working Paper
Bontpart, T., Robertson, I., Giuffrida, V., Concha, C., Scorza, L. C. T., McCormick, A. J., Fikre, A., Tsaftaris, S. A., & Doerner, P. Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) root system architecture adaptation to initial soil moisture improves seed development in dry-down conditions

Soil water deficit (WD) impacts vascular plant phenology, morpho-physiology, and reproduction. Chickpea, which is mainly grown in semi-arid areas, is a good model plant to dissect mechanisms involved in drought resistance.

We used a rhizobox-based... Read More about Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) root system architecture adaptation to initial soil moisture improves seed development in dry-down conditions.

Evaluate equivalent-sectional shear modulus for laminated glass beams using in torsion tests and photogrammetry method
Preprint / Working Paper
Uheida, K., Deng, Y., Zhang, H., Galuppi, L., Gao, J., Xie, L., Huang, S., Qin, X., Wong, S. H. F., Guo, J., Zhang, G., & Mohamed, A. Evaluate equivalent-sectional shear modulus for laminated glass beams using in torsion tests and photogrammetry method

This paper proposes a concise concept for quantifying the shear/torsional stiffness of the laminated glass beams experimentally by introducing the Equivalent-Sectional Shear Modulus (ESSM), that is directly measured from the torque and sectional-rota...

The Impact and Modelling of Concentrated Butt-Joints on Vertically Laminated Bamboo-Timber Hybrid Bio-Flitch Beams
Preprint / Working Paper
Zhang, H., Gharavi, N., Wong, S. H., Deng, Y., Bahadori-Jahromi, A., Limkatanyu, S., Qiao, Y., & Kuang, J. The Impact and Modelling of Concentrated Butt-Joints on Vertically Laminated Bamboo-Timber Hybrid Bio-Flitch Beams

This paper presents the experimental and analytical studies to investigate the impact of concentrated laminated bamboo butt-joints on the flexural properties of vertically laminated bamboo-timber hybrid beams (VLHBs, or flitch beam). The experimental... Read More about The Impact and Modelling of Concentrated Butt-Joints on Vertically Laminated Bamboo-Timber Hybrid Bio-Flitch Beams.

Why were Twitter users obsessed with Vitamin D during the first year of the pandemic?
Preprint / Working Paper
Mavroeidi, A., Innes, R., Miyake, E., & Rasmussen Pennington, D. Why were Twitter users obsessed with Vitamin D during the first year of the pandemic?

The aim of this study was to explore how the relationship between vitamin D and COVID-19 has been represented on the social media site Twitter. NCapture was used to collect textual Tweets on a weekly basis for three months during the pandemic. In tot...

Array-Aware Matching: Taming the Complexity of Large-Scale Simulation Models
Preprint / Working Paper
Fioravanti, M., Cattaneo, D., Terraneo, F., Seva, S., Cherubin, S., Agosta, G., Casella, F., & Leva, A. Array-Aware Matching: Taming the Complexity of Large-Scale Simulation Models

Equation-based modelling is a powerful approach to tame the complexity of large-scale simulation problems. Equation-based tools automatically translate models into imperative languages. When confronted with nowadays' problems, however, well assessed... Read More about Array-Aware Matching: Taming the Complexity of Large-Scale Simulation Models.

Building A Smart Academic Advising System Using Association Rule Mining
Preprint / Working Paper
Shatnawi, R., Althebyan, Q., & Ghaleb, B. Building A Smart Academic Advising System Using Association Rule Mining

In an academic environment, student advising is considered a paramount activity for both advisors and student to improve the academic performance of students. In universities of large numbers of students, advising is a time-consuming activity that ma... Read More about Building A Smart Academic Advising System Using Association Rule Mining.
