Sound transmission through hollow brick walls (1999)
Journal Article
Fringuellino, M., & Smith, S. (1999). Sound transmission through hollow brick walls. Building Acoustics, 6(3), 211-224. https://doi.org/10.1260/1351010991501419

Hollow bricks and blocks are one of the most common forms of material used for wall construction found in Central and Southern Europe. The principle purpose of the perforations (holes) is to increase the thermal insulation properties. As a result of... Read More about Sound transmission through hollow brick walls.

Employer attitudes to employer transport plans: a comparison of UK and Dutch experience (1999)
Journal Article
Rye, T. (1999). Employer attitudes to employer transport plans: a comparison of UK and Dutch experience. Transport Policy, 6(3), 183-196. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0967-070X%2899%2900020-7

Employer transport plans (ETPs) are implemented by employers to encourage their employees to choose environmentally friendly modes of transport to work. They have been a part of Netherlands’ transport policy since 1989 and now form an important plank...

A pyroelectric polymer infrared sensor array with a charge amplifier readout (1999)
Journal Article
Setiadi, D., Weller, H., & Binnie, T. (1999). A pyroelectric polymer infrared sensor array with a charge amplifier readout. Sensors and Actuators A: Physical, 76(1-3), 145-151. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0924-4247%2898%2900372-0

This paper presents a new pixel architecture for an infrared sensor array based on a pyroelectric polymer integrated with a CMOS charge amplifier. The fill factor of the sensor is optimised by placing the amplifier structure directly below the sensin...

A model of liquid outflow from single-outlet vessels (1999)
Journal Article
Kubie, J. (1999). A model of liquid outflow from single-outlet vessels. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 213(8), 833-847. https://doi.org/10.1243/0954406991522446

This paper analyses the outflow of liquids from single-outlet vessels. In such vessels the liquid leaving the vessel through the outlet is replaced by another fluid, which enters the vessel through the same opening. A theoretical model is developed f...

High-resolution image reconstruction from multiple low-resolution images. (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wei, H., & Binnie, D. (1999). High-resolution image reconstruction from multiple low-resolution images. . https://doi.org/10.1049/cp%3A19990392

In this paper, we demonstrate a digital signal processing (DSP) algorithm for improving spatial resolution of images captured by CMOS cameras. The basic approach is to reconstruct a high resolution (HR) image from a shift-related low resolution (LR)...
