Integrating measurement techniques in an Object-Oriented systems design process. (1999)
Thesis
Li-Thiao-Te, P. systems design process. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/9468

The theme of this thesis is the assessment of quality in class hierarchies. In particular, the notion of inheritance and the mechanism of redefinition from a modelling perspective are reviewed. It is shown that, in Object-Oriented languages, contro... Read More about Integrating measurement techniques in an Object-Oriented systems design process..

Recycling of demolished masonry rubble. (1999)
Thesis
De Venny, A. S. Recycling of demolished masonry rubble. (Thesis). Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/6043

The recycling of demolished masonry rubble as the coarse aggregate in new concrete represents an interesting possibility at a time when the cost of dumping such material is on the increase. With growing concerns over the environmental impact of agg... Read More about Recycling of demolished masonry rubble..

Pedestrian Detection by Computer Vision. (1999)
Thesis
Reading, I. A. D. Pedestrian Detection by Computer Vision. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/6915

This document describes work aimed at determining whether the detection, by computer vision, of pedestrians waiting at signal-controlled road crossings could be made sufficiently reliable and affordable, using currently available technology, so as...

The water ingress characteristics of stressed masonry. (1999)
Thesis
Tait, C. J. The water ingress characteristics of stressed masonry. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/3672

Water ingress, usually by wind-driven rain, is the main cause of premature deterioration in masonry structures. Water acts as a transport mechanism for aggressive chemicals and can also undergo freeze/thaw cycles leading to bursting of the masonry...
