Road simulator test rigs investigate both the durability and the squeak and rattle characteristics of vehicle structures. The test specimens are the whole vehicle or a sub-structure taken from the vehicle. In laboratory simulation tests, random time... Read More about Iterative control in automotive testing..

An analysis of the dynamics of British academic science (2007)
Report
Andras, P., Herald, N. D., & Charlton, B. (2007). An analysis of the dynamics of British academic science. Newcastle-upon-Tyne: Newcastle University

We analysed the ranking and market share dynamics of main British universities based on their research output production (publications and citations). The data that we analysed is dominated very much by research output in natural and medical sciences... Read More about An analysis of the dynamics of British academic science.
