A model of the commuting range of unemployed job seekers (2001)
Book Chapter
McQuaid, R. W., & Greig, M. (2001). A model of the commuting range of unemployed job seekers. In D. Pitfield (Ed.), Transport Planning, Logistics and Spatial Mismatch (152-166). Pion

The ability or willingness of unemployed people to travel further to a new job will affect the level of mismatch between job seekers and jobs (Brueckner and Martin 1997; Gabriel and Rosenthal, 1996; Holzer, 1991). Empirical evidence suggests that a r... Read More about A model of the commuting range of unemployed job seekers.

Risk sensitivity applied to arch bridge assessments: an introduction. (2001)
Journal Article
Ng, K.-H., Fairfield, C. A., & Sibbald, A. (2001). Risk sensitivity applied to arch bridge assessments: an introduction. The structural engineer : journal of the Institution of Structural Engineers, 79, 31-37

There are approximately 75,000 masonry arch bridges in the UK, most of which were built between 1700 and 1900 and are now carrying traffic loads far beyond those envisaged by the original designers and builders. A question has to be asked as to wheth... Read More about Risk sensitivity applied to arch bridge assessments: an introduction..

Strategic and tactical options for manageing the quality and value of eucalypt plantation resources. (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Turner, P. (2001, September). Strategic and tactical options for manageing the quality and value of eucalypt plantation resources

The paper outlines options for managing the quality and value of eucalypt plantation resources. It begins with the hypothesis that variation is the largest single issue with regard to wood quality and that the extent of variation creates both the big...

Getting the story straight (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McCall, R., Turner, P., Turner, S., & McCall, R. (2001, September). Getting the story straight. Presented at HCI 2001 and IHM 2001, Lille, France

We argue that the use of a user-centred design approach necessarily involves some form of story telling or narrative. Given that both the potential end-users and the designers themselves often (perhaps usually) have different interests and points-of-... Read More about Getting the story straight.

Political parties and democracy: theorising the relationships. (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Löfgren, K., & Smith, C. F. (2001, September). Political parties and democracy: theorising the relationships. Paper presented at European Group of Public Administration Annual Conference; meeting of the Permanent Study Group on Informatization in Public Administration

Integrating View Schemata Using an Extended Object Definition Language (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Roantree, M., Kennedy, J. B., & Barclay, P. J. (2001, September). Integrating View Schemata Using an Extended Object Definition Language. Presented at 9th International Conference, CoopIS 2001, Trento, Italy

View mechanisms play an important role in restructuring data for users, while maintaining the integrity and autonomy for the underlying database schema. Although far more complex than their relational counterparts, numerous object-oriented view mecha... Read More about Integrating View Schemata Using an Extended Object Definition Language.

Electron transport in metal-amorphous silicon-metal memory devices. (2001)
Journal Article
Hu, J., Hajto, J., Snell, A. J., & Rose, M. J. (2001). Electron transport in metal-amorphous silicon-metal memory devices. IEICE Transactions on Electronics, E84-C, 1197-1201

Current-voltage characteristics of Cr-doped hydrogenated amorphous silicon-V (Cr/p+a-Si:H/V) analogue memory switching devices have been measured over a wide range of device resistance from several kilo-ohms to several hundred kilo-ohms, and over a t...

Embodied energy analysis of aluminium-clad windows (2001)
Journal Article
Asif, M., Davidson, A., & Muneer, T. (2001). Embodied energy analysis of aluminium-clad windows. Building Services Engineering Research and Technology, 22(3), 195-199. https://doi.org/10.1191/014362401701524226

This article provides an overview of energy loads associated with the application of powder coated aluminium profiles on the exterior wooden surface of double glazed windows. The entire powder coating process has been analysed to measure its energy a... Read More about Embodied energy analysis of aluminium-clad windows.

Energy Trade-offs and Market Responses in Transport and Residential Land-use Patterns: Promoting Sustainable Development Policy (2001)
Journal Article
Cooper, J. A., Ryley, T. J., & Smyth, A. (2001). Energy Trade-offs and Market Responses in Transport and Residential Land-use Patterns: Promoting Sustainable Development Policy. Urban Studies, 38(9), 1573-1588. https://doi.org/10.1080/00420980126673

Sustainable development policy is examined for the Belfast Metropolitan Area using a range of linked aggregate and disaggregate models. Energy trade-offs were modelled for both 'stationary' private dwellings and 'mobile' traffic-related energy source...
