Mismatch unemployment and local labour market eficiency: the role of employer and vacancy characteristics. (2000)
Journal Article
Adams, J., Greig, M., & McQuaid, R. W. (2000). Mismatch unemployment and local labour market eficiency: the role of employer and vacancy characteristics. Environment and Planning A, 32(10), 1841-1856. https://doi.org/10.1068/a3342

Much of the theoretical and policy debate on local labour markets has focused upon improving the educational, training, and other `supply-side' characteristics of job seekers. However, complementary employer `demand-side' factors, in particular the...

Using technology to overcome the tyranny of space: information provision and wayfinding. (2000)
Journal Article
Hine, J., Swan, D., Scott, J., Binnie, D., & Sharp, J. (2000). Using technology to overcome the tyranny of space: information provision and wayfinding. Urban Studies, 37(10), 1757-1770. https://doi.org/10.1080/00420980020080381

Urban wayfinding technology offers many possibilities by which older people and mobility-impaired users can overcome the barriers encountered on every-day journeys in the built environment. Previous work has highlighted the extent to which personal m... Read More about Using technology to overcome the tyranny of space: information provision and wayfinding..

Low-noise charge sensitive readout for pyroelectric sensor arrays using PVDF thin film (2000)
Journal Article
Weller, H. J., Setiadi, D., & Binnie, T. D. (2000). Low-noise charge sensitive readout for pyroelectric sensor arrays using PVDF thin film. Sensors and Actuators A: Physical, 85(1-3), 267-274. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0924-4247%2800%2900411-8

The paper presents a fully integrated low-noise readout circuit for the purpose of front-end amplification in pyroelectric infrared focal plane arrays IRFPA. A low-noise and low-power charge sensitive amplifier CSA has been fabricated and characteris...

On anomalously low values of the tensile strength of water (2000)
Journal Article
Williams, P. R., & Williams, R. L. (2000). On anomalously low values of the tensile strength of water. Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 456, 1321-1332. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2000.0564

We provide an explanation for the anomalously low values of liquid tensile strength recorded in some experiments involving the reflection of a pressure pulse (as tension) at the free surface of a column of water, or at a flexible membrane. The presen... Read More about On anomalously low values of the tensile strength of water.

Defining entrepreneurship - implications for ICT, social enterprise and regional and local development policies. (2000)
Journal Article
McQuaid, R. W. (2000). Defining entrepreneurship - implications for ICT, social enterprise and regional and local development policies

Many national, regional or local agencies have created policies to directly support entrepreneurs so as to increase the number of businesses or aid the competitiveness and expansion of existing small firms. This Working paper considers what is meant... Read More about Defining entrepreneurship - implications for ICT, social enterprise and regional and local development policies..
