External timber cladding: design and performance (2012)
Journal Article
Davies, I., Fairfield, C. A., Stupart, A., & Wood, J. (2012). External timber cladding: design and performance. The structural engineer : journal of the Institution of Structural Engineers, 90, 46-53

Exposure trials on timber cladding are valuable sources of information for façade designers. Key material, fire, and structural issues affecting timber cladding design are assessed and robust construction details derived alongside a framework for the...

Professionalism in digitally mediated project work (2012)
Journal Article
Jaradat, S., Whyte, J., & Luck, R. (2013). Professionalism in digitally mediated project work. Building Research and Information, 41(1), 51-59. https://doi.org/10.1080/09613218.2013.743398

Fieldwork in a major construction programme is used to examine what is meant by professionalism where large integrated digital systems are used to design, deliver, and maintain buildings and infrastructure. The increasing ‘professionalization’ of the... Read More about Professionalism in digitally mediated project work.

Type 2 diabetes: A side effect of the adaptation of neurons and fat cells to support increased cognitive performance (2012)
Journal Article
Andras, P., & Andras, A. (2013). Type 2 diabetes: A side effect of the adaptation of neurons and fat cells to support increased cognitive performance. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mehy.2012.11.023

Type 2 diabetes is a serious disease that is affecting an increasing part of the population in most countries. A new hypothesis is presented in this paper about the underlying causes and mechanisms that lead to the development of this disease. It is...

Dual band-notched tapered slot antenna using λ/4 band-stop filters (2012)
Journal Article
Zhu, F., Gao, S., Li, J., Ho, A., See, C. H., Abd-Alhameed, R., & Xu, J. (2012). Dual band-notched tapered slot antenna using λ/4 band-stop filters. IET microwaves, antennas & propagation, 6(15), 1665-1673. https://doi.org/10.1049/iet-map.2012.0502

This study proposed a novel quarter-wavelength band-rejected element for band-notched antennas. It consists of a metal via and a rectangular strip connected to the radiating patch. In order to validate the design, a dual band-notched elliptically tap... Read More about Dual band-notched tapered slot antenna using λ/4 band-stop filters.

Multiscale Approach to Life Cycle Assessment: Evaluation of the Effect of an Increase in New York City's Rooftop Albedo on Human Health (2012)
Journal Article
Susca, T. (2012). Multiscale Approach to Life Cycle Assessment: Evaluation of the Effect of an Increase in New York City's Rooftop Albedo on Human Health. Journal of Industrial Ecology, 16(6), 951-962. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1530-9290.2012.00560.x

The urban environment is characterized by multiple interactions between its parts, and any change can determine a modification in its metabolism. Typically life cycle assessment (LCA) takes into account only part of the interactions. The main aim of...
