Cyclist exposure to hand-arm vibration and pavement surface improvement in the City of Edinburgh (2018)
Other
Taylor, M., Edgar, A., & Raine, M. (2018). Cyclist exposure to hand-arm vibration and pavement surface improvement in the City of Edinburgh. Edinburgh

Cyclist exposure to hand/arm vibration

Napier University's Dr Mark Taylor used an instrumented bike to assess the effect of setts and other road surfaces on hand-arm vibration. Setts were found to be a severe problem, with some cyclists even e... Read More about Cyclist exposure to hand-arm vibration and pavement surface improvement in the City of Edinburgh.

A Cooperative Learning Approach for the Quadratic Knapsack Problem (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lalla-Ruiz, E., Segredo, E., & Voß, S. (2018, June). A Cooperative Learning Approach for the Quadratic Knapsack Problem. Presented at Learning and Intelligent Optimization Conference (LION12), Kalamata, Greece

The Quadratic Knapsack Problem (QKP) is a well-known optimization problem aimed to maximize a quadratic objective function subject to linear capacity constraints. It has several applications in different fields such as telecommunications, graph theor... Read More about A Cooperative Learning Approach for the Quadratic Knapsack Problem.

Experimental and numerical thermal analysis of multi-layered microchannel heat sink for concentrating photovoltaic application (2018)
Journal Article
Al Siyabi, I., Khanna, S., Sundaram, S., & Mallick, T. (2018). Experimental and numerical thermal analysis of multi-layered microchannel heat sink for concentrating photovoltaic application. Energies, 12(1), Article 122. https://doi.org/10.3390/en12010122

Concentrating photovoltaic has a major challenge due to the high temperature raised during the process which reduces the efficiency of the solar cell. A multi-layered microchannel heat sink technique is considered more efficient in terms of heat remo...

Measuring passive engagement with health information on social media (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Alhayan, F., Pennington, D., & Ayouni, S. (2018, April). Measuring passive engagement with health information on social media. Presented at IEEE Saudi Section 21st Saudi Computer Society National Computer Conference, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Little to no consensus exists on the definition of “engagement” on social media platforms. A myriad of management tools are available to measure behavioral interactions with social media. However, the majority of social media users engage with the co... Read More about Measuring passive engagement with health information on social media.
