MOTION - A New On-line Model for Urban Traffic Signal Control. (1995)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bielefeldt, C., & Busch, F. (1995). MOTION - A New On-line Model for Urban Traffic Signal Control.

This paper presents MOTION, a modular on-line model for urban traffic signal control. It consists of a network and a local level and builds on enhanced traffic state estimation. Special consideration is given to the prioritization of public transit.... Read More about MOTION - A New On-line Model for Urban Traffic Signal Control..

The development of a photoacoustic Instrument for the monitoring of oil and other hydrocarbons in water. (1995)
Journal Article
Mackenzie, H., & Binnie, D. (1995). The development of a photoacoustic Instrument for the monitoring of oil and other hydrocarbons in water. Petroleum review, 49, 555-557

The present methods for the detection of oil in discharge water are based either on chemical analysis of intermittent samples or bypass pipelines with instrumentation to detect either dissolved or dispersed hydrocarbons by a variety of optical techni...

Robot Calibration Using Artificial Neural Networks (1995)
Thesis
Zhong, X. Robot Calibration Using Artificial Neural Networks. (Thesis). Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/2254583

Robot calibration is an integrated procedure of measurement and data processing to improve and maintain robot positioning accuracy. Existing robot calibration techniques require extensive human intervention and off-line processing, which preclude the... Read More about Robot Calibration Using Artificial Neural Networks.

An experimental investigation of outflow of liquids from single-outlet vessels (1995)
Journal Article
Schmidt, O., & Kubie, J. (1995). An experimental investigation of outflow of liquids from single-outlet vessels. International Journal of Multiphase Flow, 21(6), 1163-1168. https://doi.org/10.1016/0301-9322%2895%2900051-x

This paper considers the outflow of a liquid from a single outlet vessel, i.e. a vessel in which the outflowing liquid is displaced by another fluid which enters the vessel through the same opening. The simplest possible arrangement is investigated:... Read More about An experimental investigation of outflow of liquids from single-outlet vessels.

One-bit adder design based on Reed-Muller expansions (1995)
Journal Article
Guan, Z., & Almaini, A. E. A. (1995). One-bit adder design based on Reed-Muller expansions. International Journal of Electronics, 79(5), 519-529. https://doi.org/10.1080/00207219508926289

It has been claimed for some time that the Reed-Muller technique can yield a simpler arithmetic circuit if it is employed in the design procedure. In fact, no practical application in this field can be found in the open literature. This paper attempt... Read More about One-bit adder design based on Reed-Muller expansions.

Daylight illuminance modelling for the United Kingdom and Europe (1995)
Thesis
Angus, R. C. Daylight illuminance modelling for the United Kingdom and Europe. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/3712

This thesis highlights the benefits to occupants and owners of buildings who utilise daylight effectively. Many cases of absence are related to depression or Seasonal Adjustment Disorder(SAD) which results from inadequate exposure to daylight in the...

Application of pulsed laser photoacoustic sensors in monitoring oil contamination in water (1995)
Journal Article
Hodgson, P., Quan, K., MacKenzie, H., Freeborn, S., Hannigan, J., Johnston, E., Greig, F., & Binnie, T. (1995). Application of pulsed laser photoacoustic sensors in monitoring oil contamination in water. Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, 29(1-3), 339-344. https://doi.org/10.1016/0925-4005%2895%2901704-6

A pulsed laser photoacoustic measurement technique, utilising laser diode sources, has been developed for the detection of oil contamination in water. The measurement of oil-contaminated water samples of oil concentration ranging from 0 to 900 mg 1−1...

The behaviour of a MDF groove‐lock flooring system under static load (1995)
Journal Article
Bell, C. L., Kermani, A., & McKenzie, W. M. C. (1995). The behaviour of a MDF groove‐lock flooring system under static load. Building research and information : the international journal of research, development and demonstration, 23(5), 249-254. https://doi.org/10.1080/09613219508727472

Investigation of the structural behaviour of medium density fibreboard, MDF, panels used as a flooring system under static loading conditions. Properties of the panel and structural support rails were tested as separate components to determine their... Read More about The behaviour of a MDF groove‐lock flooring system under static load.

Effect of Vortices on Liquid Outflow from Vessels (1995)
Journal Article
Harvey, R., & Kubie, J. (1995). Effect of Vortices on Liquid Outflow from Vessels. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 209(5), 363-370. https://doi.org/10.1243/pime_proc_1995_209_164_02

This paper considers the effect of vortices on liquid outflow from open vessels. One of the simplest possible arrangements is investigated: an axisymmetric vertical cylindrical vessel with an outlet in its base. A simple spiral vortex is either intro...
