Modelling how changes in the driving cycle affect fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emission rates: the first stage. (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kirby, H. (2006, November). Modelling how changes in the driving cycle affect fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emission rates: the first stage

This paper describes a simplified procedure for estimating the fuel consumed and carbon dioxide emitted as a result of traffic demand management measures or other policy instruments. The usual methods may be based on second-by-second traffic simulati...

Unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of landfilled waste. (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kazimoglu, Y. K., McDougall, J., & Pyrah, I. (2006). Unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of landfilled waste. . https://doi.org/10.1061/40802%28189%29127

Unsaturated flow modelling of landfill hydraulics is a potentially valuable tool for the prediction of leachate discharge rates, design of leachate control systems and simulation of biodegradation in engineered landfills. Such an approach requires in... Read More about Unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of landfilled waste..

Stability of domestic dwellings. (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hairstans, R., Kermani, A., & Lawson, R. (2006). Stability of domestic dwellings.

A comparative study of typical UK timber frame domestic dwellings is carried out in relation to system stability. The concepts of stiffness proportionality, redundancy, continuity and robustness are explored in relation to current UK timber frame d... Read More about Stability of domestic dwellings..
