Enhancing community participation in Metropolitan strategic transport planning through shared analysis (2011)
Journal Article
Sunter, P., & Wigan, M. (2011). Enhancing community participation in Metropolitan strategic transport planning through shared analysis. Road and Transport Research Journal, 20, 24-35

This paper assesses and explores the existing potential for new approaches to software and data, such as the open source movement, to contribute to more open and contestable strategic land-use and transport planning processes. Issues with the current... Read More about Enhancing community participation in Metropolitan strategic transport planning through shared analysis.

Can transport related social exclusion be measured? (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Suhl, K., & Carreno, M. (2011). Can transport related social exclusion be measured?. In D. Cygas, & K. Froehner (Eds.), The 8th International Conference on Environmental Engineering (8th ICEE) – Selected Papers (1001-1008)

Since the 1980’s, the concept of social exclusion has, and continues to attract considerable research interest and policy credence at a European level. The role of transport as a potential determinant in creating social exclusion is also well accepte... Read More about Can transport related social exclusion be measured?.

An experimental study of the effects of resilient bars on plate vibration (2011)
Journal Article
Su, S., Smith, S., & Fairfield, C. A. (2011). An experimental study of the effects of resilient bars on plate vibration. Applied Acoustics, 72, 241-247. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apacoust.2010.11.009

Resilient bars can provide a low-cost, effective improvement to sound insulation performance. They are commonly used in timber-framed floor/ceiling assemblies in North America and Europe. Resilient bars are often modelled as springs isolating the two... Read More about An experimental study of the effects of resilient bars on plate vibration.

Where can researchers find inspiration for the transformative applications, concepts and infrastructures that they believe will characterise the next decade? One approach to predicting the future is to reflect on the visions of the future that have b... Read More about The city in cinema: how popular culture can influence research agendas..

Imagining urban interactions: strategies for exploring future design landscapes. (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Smyth, M., & Helgason, I. (2011). Imagining urban interactions: strategies for exploring future design landscapes. In Proceedings of British HCI

For designers, attempting to respond to unknown design spaces can be a daunting task. This paper describes a series of workshops that presented rapid ethnographic design methods in city streets as a way of exploring human behaviours, and recording th...

Vibration Insulation Properties of Resilient Bars in Timber Floors (2011)
Journal Article
Smith, S., Fairfield, C. A., & Su, S. (2011). Vibration Insulation Properties of Resilient Bars in Timber Floors. Building Acoustics, 17, 249-268. https://doi.org/10.1260/1351-010X.17.4.249

As effective, low-cost isolators, resilient bars have become the dominant ceiling treatment for improving the sound insulation of apartment timber floors in the UK to meet increasingly stringent building regulations. There are many variations on the... Read More about Vibration Insulation Properties of Resilient Bars in Timber Floors.
