Lattice summations for spread out particles: Applications to neutral and charged systems. (2013)
Journal Article
Heyes, D. M., & Brańka, A. C. (2013). Lattice summations for spread out particles: Applications to neutral and charged systems. Journal of Chemical Physics, 138, 34504. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4775367

This work is concerned with the lattice energy of periodic assemblies of mass and charge distributions of the form, exp (−αp 2), where α is an adjustable positive variable and p − is the vector from the lattice site or average position. The energy... Read More about Lattice summations for spread out particles: Applications to neutral and charged systems..

Strategy choice in transit networks. (2013)
Journal Article
Fonzone, A., Schmoecker, J., Kurauchi, F., & Hemdan, S. M. H. (2013). Strategy choice in transit networks. Journal of the Eastern Asia Society for Transportation Studies, 10, 796-815

Public transport passengers are assumed to choose routes that minimise the expected travel times. In networks with high-frequency services this requires the adoption of hyperpaths. An experimental validation of the hyperpath model has been carried ou... Read More about Strategy choice in transit networks..

Language choice as a potential source of Intercultural discord in English-Mandarin business encounters. (2013)
Journal Article
Fischer, M. (2013). Language choice as a potential source of Intercultural discord in English-Mandarin business encounters. China media research, 9, 45

Until recently Anglophone business research into the issues surrounding the costs of and barriers to internationalisation has focused on cultural barriers and their potential for conflict and misunderstanding. Most of this research assumes that, as E... Read More about Language choice as a potential source of Intercultural discord in English-Mandarin business encounters..

Employer demand for languages graduates in Scotland: a case study in the Financial Services sector. (2013)
