Simultaneous measurement of membrane potential changes in multiple pattern generating neurons using voltage sensitive dye imaging (2011)
Journal Article
Städele, C., Andras, P., & Stein, W. (2012). Simultaneous measurement of membrane potential changes in multiple pattern generating neurons using voltage sensitive dye imaging. Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 203(1), 78-88. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jneu

Optical imaging using voltage-sensitive dyes (VSDs) is a promising technique for the simultaneous activity recording of many individual neurons. While such simultaneous recordings are critical for the understanding of the integral functionality of ne...

Evaluation of the Shear Constant of a Timber Beam using a Photogrammetric Approach (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zhang, H., Mohamed, A., & Xiao, Z. (2011, June). Evaluation of the Shear Constant of a Timber Beam using a Photogrammetric Approach. Presented at Proceedings of the Thirteenth International Conference on Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering Com

The shear modulus is a fundamental mechanical property of wood that is used in general timber design [1,2,3]. Compared with other engineering materials, timber has relatively low shear stiffness in comparison to its modulus of elasticity, and so shea...

Dual-Band and Wide Band Tuning Antennas for Mobile and Wireless Communications (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
E.Elfergani, I., Abd-Alhameed, R. A., Hwang See, C., Hraga, H. I., Sadeghpour, T., Alhaddad, A., & Excell, P. (2011). Dual-Band and Wide Band Tuning Antennas for Mobile and Wireless Communications.

Two tunable PIFA antennas are presented. The first is a dual-band handset antenna with tuning introduced across the slot using either a lumped capacitor or a varactor diode. Suitable tunability is initially established and tested for two resonant fre... Read More about Dual-Band and Wide Band Tuning Antennas for Mobile and Wireless Communications.

Arctic shipping highways. (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Baird, A. (2011, September). Arctic shipping highways. Paper presented at Orkney International Science Festival

Ships and sailors in the Arctic have traditionally faced fearsome hazards in the bitter winds and freezing waters, but today the ice is in retreat and the Arctic is opening up as a marine highway linking Europe, Asia and North America. Could that mea... Read More about Arctic shipping highways..
