Journal Article
Hapca, A. I., Altaner, C., Knox, J. P., & Jarvis, M. C. (2007). Detection of β-1-4-galactan in compression wood of Sitka Spruce (Picea sitchensis (Bong.) Carrière) by immunofluorescence. Holzforschung, 61(3), 311-316. https://doi.org/10.1515/HF.2007.049

β-1-4-Galactan has been detected in Sitka spruce [Picea sitchensis (Bong.) Carrière] by an immunofluorescence procedure. The anti-β-1-4-galactan monoclonal antibody LM5 was found to bind to compression wood (CW) tissue as identified by cell morpholog...

Presentation / Conference Contribution
Muneer, T., Alnaser, W. E., & Fairooz, F. The insolation on vertical surface having different directions in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Presented at The Ninth Arab International Conference on Solar Energy (AICSE-9), Kingdom of Bahrain

The daily total global (HT) and diffuse (HDIF) solar radiation, measured at Bahrain International Airport, Kingdom of Bahrain, (latitude 26° 13″N and longitude 50° 39″E), had been recorded, analyzed, and studied. The mean hourly values of HT and HDIF... Read More about The insolation on vertical surface having different directions in the Kingdom of Bahrain.

A third order analysis of a low temperature differential Ringbom-Stirling engine (2007)
Thesis
Robson, A. P. A third order analysis of a low temperature differential Ringbom-Stirling engine. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/4167

The analysis of the Stirling engine has long been hampered by a lack of understanding of the complex relationship between the mechanical dynamics, thermodynamics and fluid dynamics operating within the engine. This thesis outlines the research into L... Read More about A third order analysis of a low temperature differential Ringbom-Stirling engine.

Users gain access to cash, confidential information and services at Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) via an authentication process involving a Personal Identification Number (PIN). These users frequently have many different PINs, and fail to remember... Read More about Pictures at the ATM: Exploring the usability of multiple graphical passwords..

Metaheuristics for university course timetabling. (2007)
Book Chapter
Lewis, R. M. R., Paechter, B., & Rossi-Doria, O. (2007). Metaheuristics for university course timetabling. In K. Dahal, K. Chen Tan, & P. Cowling (Eds.), Evolutionary Scheduling (237-272). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-48584-1_9

In this chapter we consider the NP-complete problem of university
course timetabling. We note that it is often difficult to gain a deep understanding
of these sorts of problems due to the fact that so many different
types of constraints can ultima... Read More about Metaheuristics for university course timetabling..

Rheometrical detection of incipient blood clot formation by Fourier transform mechanical spectroscopy (2007)
Journal Article

We report a study of the coagulation of whole blood by oscillatory shear Fourier transform mechanical spectroscopy. The results include the first identification of the Gel Point of coagulating blood in terms of the Chambon–Winter Gel Point criterion...

Channel flow and trichloroethylene treatment in a partly iron-filled fracture: Experimental and model results (2007)
Journal Article

Technical developments have now made it possible to emplace granular zero-valent iron (Fe0) in fractured media to create a Fe0 fracture reactive barrier (Fe0 FRB) for the treatment of contaminated groundwater. To evaluate this concept, we conducted a... Read More about Channel flow and trichloroethylene treatment in a partly iron-filled fracture: Experimental and model results.

Respondents living close to a Quality Bus Corridor indicated which of 68 items were ‘Things I dislike or things that discourage me
from using the bus in Edinburgh’. Eight underlying factors are reported: feeling unsafe (e.g., ‘Drunk people put me of... Read More about Passenger perceptions and the ideal urban bus journey experience.

Surfactant-assisted room-temperature synthesis of CdSe nanoclusters (2007)
Journal Article
