Optimisation of Reed-Muller PLA implementations. (2002)
Journal Article
Wang, L. Y., & Almaini, A. E. A. (2002). Optimisation of Reed-Muller PLA implementations. IEE proceedings. Circuits, devices, and systems, 149, 119-128. https://doi.org/10.1049/ip-cds%3A20020354

Decomposition techniques are utilised for mixed polarity Reed-Muller minimisation, which lead to Reed-Muller programmable logic array implementations for Boolean functions. The proposed algorithm produces a simplified mixed polarity Reed-Muller forma... Read More about Optimisation of Reed-Muller PLA implementations..

Relationship between brittleness and moisture loss of concrete exposed to high temperatures. (2002)
Journal Article
Zhang, B., Bicanic, N., Pearce, C. J., & Phillips, D. V. (2002). Relationship between brittleness and moisture loss of concrete exposed to high temperatures. Cement and Concrete Research, 32(3), 363-371. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0008-8846%2801%2900684-6

The effect of moisture loss at high temperatures on the brittleness of concrete was investigated by conducting three-point bending tests on preheated notched beams. The relationships of moisture loss represented by mass loss with heating temperature... Read More about Relationship between brittleness and moisture loss of concrete exposed to high temperatures..

Continuous surface wave and impact methods of measuring the stiffness and density of railway ballast (2002)
Journal Article
Fairfield, C., & Zagyapan, M. (2002). Continuous surface wave and impact methods of measuring the stiffness and density of railway ballast. NDT and E International, 35(2), 75-81. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0963-8695%2801%2900034-2

Continuous surface wave and transient impact excitation tests were performed on strips of ballast to monitor their compaction. The ballast's shear wave velocity, hence the ratio of its shear modulus and density, increased with depth. Two types of tra...

The assessment of sustainable urban development. (2002)
Journal Article
Deakin, M., Huovila, P., Rao, S., Sunikka, M., & Vreeker, R. (2002). The assessment of sustainable urban development. Building Research and Information, 30(2), 95-108. https://doi.org/10.1080/096132102753436477

This paper describes the outcomes of a survey of assessment methods for sustainable urban development (SUD) undertaken by an international network called BEQUEST. It addresses aspects of good practice in terms of SUD, explores the range of methods av... Read More about The assessment of sustainable urban development..

A vision and methodology for integrated sustainable urban development: BEQUEST (2002)
Journal Article
Bentivegna, V., Curwell, S., Deakin, M., Lombardi, P., Mitchell, G., & Nijkamp, P. (2002). A vision and methodology for integrated sustainable urban development: BEQUEST. Building Research and Information, 30(2), 83-94. https://doi.org/10.1080/096132102753436468

The concepts and visions of sustainable development that have emerged in the post-Brundtland era are explored in terms laying the foundations for a common vision of sustainable urban development (SUD). The described vision and methodology for SUD res... Read More about A vision and methodology for integrated sustainable urban development: BEQUEST.

A computational investigation of pole-zero cancellation for a double inverted pendulum (2002)
Journal Article
Woodham, C. A., & Su, H. (2002). A computational investigation of pole-zero cancellation for a double inverted pendulum. Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 140(1-2), 823-836. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0377-0427%2801%2900477-0

Modern symbolic computational systems which perform automated manipulation of algebraic variables offer insights into a variety of mathematical problems. This work uses the symbolic manipulation toolbox available in MATLAB to investigate pole-zero ca...

Toward statistically valid population decoding models (2002)
Journal Article
Andras, P., Panzeri, S., & Young, M. P. (2002). Toward statistically valid population decoding models. Neurocomputing, 44, 269-274. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0925-2312%2802%2900349-1

8We focus in this paper on the methodology of building statistically valid population code read-out models for spike train data. A new method is explored, which uses Bayesian networks to formalize the read-out model, Monte Carlo validation to check t... Read More about Toward statistically valid population decoding models.
