Modelling motorcyclist injury severity by various crash types at T-junctions in the UK (2008)
Journal Article
Pai, C., & Saleh, W. (2008). Modelling motorcyclist injury severity by various crash types at T-junctions in the UK. Safety Science, 46, 1234-1247. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ssci.2007.07.005

Motorcyclists tend to be more vulnerable to injuries than those using other motorised vehicles and this may act synergistically with the complexity of conflicting movements between vehicles and motorcycles to increase injury severity in a junction-ty...

Exploring motorcyclist injury severity in approach-turn collisions at T-junctions: Focusing on the effects of driver's failure to yield and junction control measures (2008)
Journal Article
Pai, C., & Saleh, W. (2008). Exploring motorcyclist injury severity in approach-turn collisions at T-junctions: Focusing on the effects of driver's failure to yield and junction control measures. Accident analysis and prevention, 40, 479-486. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aap.2007.08.003

Research has suggested that motorcyclists involved in approach-turn crashes were much more injurious than any other crash-type. This paper investigates the determinants of motorcyclist injury severity resulting from such crash types that occurred at...

Specimen generation approaches for DEM simulations. (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
O'Sullivan, C., Barreto, D., & Zdravkovic, L. (2008, September). Specimen generation approaches for DEM simulations

Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulations ofelement tests cam provide significant insight into the micro-mechanics of soil response. It is well established that soil behaviour is strongly dependant on the initial density. Generation of particulate as... Read More about Specimen generation approaches for DEM simulations..

Application of reset voltage feedback for droop minimization in the unidirectional current pulse transformer (2008)
Journal Article
McNeill, N., Gupta, N. K., Burrow, S. G., Holliday, D., & Mellor, P. H. (2008). Application of reset voltage feedback for droop minimization in the unidirectional current pulse transformer. IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, 23, 591-599. https://doi.org/10.1109/TPEL.2007.915662

This paper investigates the application of reset voltage feedback for reducing errors due to droop in the signal derived from a current transformer sensing unidirectional current pulses in switched-mode power converter applications. Droop is minimise... Read More about Application of reset voltage feedback for droop minimization in the unidirectional current pulse transformer.

Assessment of the error in the average current sensed by the unidirectional current pulse transformer (2008)
Journal Article
McNeill, N., & Gupta, N. K. (2008). Assessment of the error in the average current sensed by the unidirectional current pulse transformer. IET Circuits, Devices and Systems, 2, 265. https://doi.org/10.1049/iet-cds%3A20070226

Advantages of using a current transformer (CT) for current sensing in switched mode power converters are that galvanic isolation is inherent, losses are low, the bandwidth is high and a high-amplitude output signal may be obtained. However, 'droop' o... Read More about Assessment of the error in the average current sensed by the unidirectional current pulse transformer.

Inter-agency cooperation in activation: comparing experiences in three vanguard "active" welfare states (2008)
Journal Article
Lindsay, C., & McQuaid, R. W. (2008). Inter-agency cooperation in activation: comparing experiences in three vanguard "active" welfare states. Social Policy and Society, 7, 353-365. https://doi.org/10.1017/S1474746408004326

New forms of inter-agency co-operation have gained increasing prominence in the development and delivery of activation strategies. This article compares different models of inter-agency co-operation, drawing on case study research in Denmark, the Net...
