A model of liquid outflow from single-outlet vessels (1999)
Journal Article
Kubie, J. (1999). A model of liquid outflow from single-outlet vessels. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 213(8), 833-847. https://doi.org/10.1243/0954406991522446

This paper analyses the outflow of liquids from single-outlet vessels. In such vessels the liquid leaving the vessel through the outlet is replaced by another fluid, which enters the vessel through the same opening. A theoretical model is developed f...

Excluding inclusions [PCB inspection] (1999)
Journal Article
Scott, A. V., & Buchanan, W. J. (1999). Excluding inclusions [PCB inspection]. Manufacturing Engineer, 78(4), 154-156. https://doi.org/10.1049/me%3A19990403

The authors look at the causes of a persistent annoyance for manufacturers of printed circuit boards, and suggest some steps that would help to speed inspection and reduce both genuine faults and false rejects from the visual inspection system. This... Read More about Excluding inclusions [PCB inspection].

High-resolution image reconstruction from multiple low-resolution images. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wei, H., & Binnie, D. (1999, July). High-resolution image reconstruction from multiple low-resolution images. Presented at Seventh IEE Conference on Image Processing and Applications

In this paper, we demonstrate a digital signal processing (DSP) algorithm for improving spatial resolution of images captured by CMOS cameras. The basic approach is to reconstruct a high resolution (HR) image from a shift-related low resolution (LR)...

Application of a conductive polymer to self-absorbing ferroelectric polymer pyroelectric sensors (1999)
Journal Article
Setiadi, D., He, Z., Hajto, J., & Binnie, T. (1999). Application of a conductive polymer to self-absorbing ferroelectric polymer pyroelectric sensors. Infrared Physics and Technology, 40(4), 267-278. https://doi.org/10.1016/s1350-4495%2899%2900017-1

This paper presents application of a conductive polymer to a self-absorbing pyroelectric sensor. The pyroelectric sensor is a free standing thermal infrared detector. It consists of a conductive polymer (PEDT/PSS) as an absorber layer and front elect...

Pedestrian Detection by Computer Vision. (1999)
Thesis
Reading, I. A. D. Pedestrian Detection by Computer Vision. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. 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... Read More about Pedestrian Detection by Computer Vision..

An inter-comparison of laboratory measurements of airborne sound insulation of lightweight plasterboard walls. (1999)
Journal Article

This paper describes the results of the European Inter-Laboratory Test (ILT) program, conducted for the determination of repeatability and reproducibility values for the laboratory measurements of airborne sound insulation of walls. A total of 24 lab... Read More about An inter-comparison of laboratory measurements of airborne sound insulation of lightweight plasterboard walls..

A symbolic investigation of pole-zero cancellation for a double inverted pendulum using torque inputs. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Woodham, C. A. (1999, June). A symbolic investigation of pole-zero cancellation for a double inverted pendulum using torque inputs. Paper presented at IEE Colloquium on "Symbolic Computation for Control"

Modern computational packages are able to perform highly complex manipulations of symbolic variables, thus offering insights into a variety of mathematical problems. The symbolic manipulation packages REDUCE and MATLAB Symbolic Toolbox are used in an...

Effectiveness of simple ventilation strategies and partitioning in mitigating the effects of passive smoking (1999)
Journal Article
Kolokotroni, M., Perera, M. D. A. E. S., Palmer, J., Currie, J., Capper, G., & Watkins, R. (1999). Effectiveness of simple ventilation strategies and partitioning in mitigating the effects of passive smoking. Building Services Engineering Research and Technology, 20(2), 93-98. https://doi.org/10.1177/014362449902000208

Pubs, bars and restaurants are places where smoking policy is still left to the discretion of the manager and where smoking is often permitted. However, there is demand to take measures to eliminate or reduce the effects of environmental tobacco smok...
