Teaching multitasking to electronics and computing students (2001)
Journal Article
Armitage, A. (2001). Teaching multitasking to electronics and computing students. International Journal of Electrical Engineering Education, 38, 338-347

Although widely used in the solution of engineering problems, multitasking is conceptually as complicated as parallel processing. A simple system that covers the key features of multitasking in a short time is presented. A description is given of its...

This paper examines the environmental goals of rural, family owned/operated tourism
business with a viewto evaluating their conservationethic andcommitment to sustainable
tourism. From a survey of 198 family businesses in Western Australia, it was... Read More about The environmental attitudes and practices of family businesses in the rural tourism and hospitality sectors..

Review of Water Ingress Characteristic of Stressed Masonry (2001)
Journal Article
Tait, C. J., Khalaf, F. M., & Kermani, A. (2001). Review of Water Ingress Characteristic of Stressed Masonry. Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 13(5), 332-339. https://doi.org/10.1061/%28asce%290899-1561%282001%2913%3A5%28332%29

Studies have found that over 80% of total water ingress occurs at the brick/mortar interface and not through the brick unit or the mortar. The interface between the brick and mortar is influenced by the tensile bond strength between the two, which is... Read More about Review of Water Ingress Characteristic of Stressed Masonry.

Who is the wine tourist? (2001)
Journal Article
Charters, S., & Ali-Knight, J. (2002). Who is the wine tourist?. Tourism Management, 23(3), 311-319. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0261-5177%2801%2900079-6

Both the wine and tourism industries have achieved high levels of growth within Australia in the 1990s, and are significant contributors to the GDP as invisible exports. In 1994, about 10 percent of the total international visitors made a visit to an... Read More about Who is the wine tourist?.

Energy use and transport correlation linking personal and travel related energy uses to the urban structure (2001)
Journal Article
Cooper, J., Ryley, T., Smyth, A., & Granzow, E. (2001). Energy use and transport correlation linking personal and travel related energy uses to the urban structure. Environmental Science and Policy, 4(6), 307-318. https://doi.org/10.1016/s1462-9011%2801%2900030-2

This paper considers relationships between sustainability objectives, transport, spatial design of the built environment and rational use of energy. Conventional transport modelling, housing supply and energy assessment tools are drawn together to pr...

New techniques in sol–gel characterisation – mechanical measurements and fractal characteristics (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Williams, P., Williams, R. L., Jones, R., Al-Hussany, A., & Ravji, S. (2000, August). New techniques in sol–gel characterisation – mechanical measurements and fractal characteristics. Presented at 8th International Conference on Non-Crystalline Materials, Aberystwyth, UK

We report theoretical and experimental work which demonstrates how the viscoelastic dispersion of shear waves may be exploited in studies of the rheological properties of systems such as `critical-gels' – systems at the gel point. At the gel point a... Read More about New techniques in sol–gel characterisation – mechanical measurements and fractal characteristics.

Analysis of liquid outflow from single-outlet vessels (2001)
Journal Article
Koukouvaos, A., & Kubie, J. (2001). Analysis of liquid outflow from single-outlet vessels. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 215(10), 1189-1210. https://doi.org/10.1177/095440620121500105

The paper presents experimental and theoretical investigation of the outflow of liquids from single-outlet vessels incorporating a vertical downcomer. In such vessels the liquid leaving through the outlet of the downcomer is replaced by another fluid... Read More about Analysis of liquid outflow from single-outlet vessels.
