Axially loaded Helifx connectors in timber. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Coste, G., & Kermani, A. (2005, November). Axially loaded Helifx connectors in timber. Presented at The Second Scottish Conference for Postgraduate Researchers of the Built & Natural Environment (PRoBE)

This paper presents an experimental investigation on the withdrawal of a new connector type for use in structural timber. The structural performance of Helifix fasteners, which have been used as efficient wall ties and masonry repairs for a number of... Read More about Axially loaded Helifx connectors in timber..

Novel probability neural network (2005)
Journal Article
Cang, S., & Yu, H. (2005). Novel probability neural network. IEE Proceedings: Vision, Image and Signal Processing, 152(5), 535-544. https://doi.org/10.1049/ip-vis%3A20059021

This paper presents a novel probability neural network (PNN) that can classify the data for both continuous and categorical input data types. A mixture model of continuous and categorical variables is proposed to construct a probability density funct... Read More about Novel probability neural network.

Novel synthesis method of mixed polarity reed-muller functions. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Xia, Y., Ye, X., Wang, L. Y., Zou, Z., & Almaini, A. E. A. (2005). Novel synthesis method of mixed polarity reed-muller functions.

In this paper a new approach is proposed to obtain a compact mixed polarity Reed-Muller form, starting from a fixed polarity Reed-Muller expression; a fixed polarity Reed-Muller function is expressed into a truth vector, the truth vector is shrunk an...

Five-valued circuit quantitative theory and design of five-valued twisted-ring. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wang, P., Liu, Y., Yang, M., & Almaini, A. E. A. (2005). Five-valued circuit quantitative theory and design of five-valued twisted-ring. In T. Tang, & Y. Huang (Eds.), ASICON 2005: Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on ASIC, 2005 (354-357). h

This paper presents a six-valued algebra in order to form the theory of three essential elements for five-valued circuits, which is a mathematical tool for quantitative investigation on five-valued circuits. Based on the theory, the component level c... Read More about Five-valued circuit quantitative theory and design of five-valued twisted-ring..

Maritime policy in Scotland (2005)
Journal Article
Baird, A. J., & Baird, A. (2005). Maritime policy in Scotland. Maritime Policy and Management, 32(4), 383-401. https://doi.org/10.1080/03088830500300404

This paper begins by defining the meaning of the term `maritime policy'. Since devolution in the UK, the opening of the new Scottish parliament in 1998 and the creation of the Scottish Executive, little effort has been made to establish a distinct ma... Read More about Maritime policy in Scotland.

A mixed Genetic Algorithm and Simulated Annealing (GASA) algorithm is used for the placement of symmetrical FPGA. The prpoposed algortithm includes 2 stage processes. In the first stage process it optimizes placement solutions globally using GA. In t... Read More about FPGA placement using genetic algorithm with simulated annealing..
