A Model for Emergent Chaotic Order in Small Neural Networks (2003)
Journal Article
Andras, P. (2003). A Model for Emergent Chaotic Order in Small Neural Networks. Journal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2(1), 55-69. https://doi.org/10.1142/S0219635203000172

A new neural network model is introduced in this paper. The aim of the proposed Sierpinski neural networks is to provide a simple and biologically plausible neural network architecture that produces emergent complex spatio-temporal patterns through t...

The prevalence of functional impairment in Great Britain (2003)
Book Chapter
Clarkson, J., Dong, H., & Keates, S. (2003). The prevalence of functional impairment in Great Britain. In J. Clarkson, R. Coleman, S. Keates, & C. Lebbon (Eds.), Inclusive Design: Design for the Whole Population (360-371). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-0001-0_22

The general lack of awareness of the wider range of end-user capabilities often results in inconsiderate design that excludes many users, especially older users and users with disabilities. There is a need for designers to understand both the nature... Read More about The prevalence of functional impairment in Great Britain.

Design exclusion (2003)
Book Chapter
Keates, S., & Clarkson, J. (2003). Design exclusion. In J. Clarkson, R. Coleman, S. Keates, & C. Lebbon (Eds.), Inclusive Design: Design for the Whole Population (88-107). London: Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-0001-0_6

While inclusive design and universal design are commonly accepted as good design aims, this chapter discusses the merits of focusing on design exclusion. The concept of design exclusion is particularly powerful because identifying why and how end-use... Read More about Design exclusion.

Assessment for inclusive design (2003)
Book Chapter
Cardoso, C., Keates, S., & Clarkson, J. (2003). Assessment for inclusive design. In J. Clarkson, R. Coleman, S. Keates, & C. Lebbon (Eds.), Inclusive Design: Design for the Whole Population (458-477). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-0001-0_28

Many designers view the process of design as primarily creative and informal. They often rely heavily on their intuitive response to the design problem when developing a design solution. As such, without an explicit effort to address the needs of the... Read More about Assessment for inclusive design.

Quantifying Design Exclusion (2003)
Book Chapter
Clarkson, J., Dong, H., & Keates, S. (2003). Quantifying Design Exclusion. In J. Clarkson, S. Keates, R. Coleman, & C. Lebbon (Eds.), Inclusive Design: Design for the Whole Population (422-436). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-0001-0

Products make demands of their users which effect their utility and usability. As a result, those users who do not have the capability to use the product are denied access to it. For example, a kettle that is so heavy that a weaker user cannot lift i... Read More about Quantifying Design Exclusion.

Inclusive design: design for the whole population. (2003)
Book
Clarkson, P., Keates, S., Coleman, R., & Lebbon, C. (Eds.). (2003). Inclusive design: design for the whole population. London, UK: Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-0001-0

Inclusive Design: What's in It for Me? presents a comprehensive review of current practice in inclusive design. With emphasis on new ideas for improvement and arguments for wider implementation in future, a unique combination of leading opinions on i...

Reshaping social movement media for a new millennium. (2003)
Journal Article
Atton, C. (2003). Reshaping social movement media for a new millennium. Social Movement Studies, 2, 3-15

This article contextualizes Indymedia, the Internet-based network of Independent Media Centres (IMCs) that has developed since the 30 November protests in Seattle against the World Trade Organization talks there in 1999. In a short space of time this... Read More about Reshaping social movement media for a new millennium..

A network of inscrutable canyons: wartime London’s sensory landscapes. (2003)
Book Chapter
Wasson, S. (2003). A network of inscrutable canyons: wartime London’s sensory landscapes. In L. Phillips (Ed.), The Swarming Streets: Twentieth-Century Literary Representations of London (77-95). Rodopi

Sensory abundance has always been a hallmark of cities, but with the onset of World War II London’s sensory geography was transformed. The resulting city lacked many of the hallmarks of cities before or since, and novels, photographs, and even card...

Dissolving the people. (2003)
Book Chapter

Addressing gaps in the availability of travel behaviour data. (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Schmoecker, J., Cooper, J. A., Polak, J. W., & Wigan, M. (2003). Addressing gaps in the availability of travel behaviour data.

The aim of this paper is to present the results of a project undertaken to identify key areas in which shortcomings in the collection, processing and dissemination of travel behavioural data have held back needed research and, building on this, to de...

The Structural behaviour of timber joints made with fully overlapping nails. (2003)
Thesis
Porteous, A. The Structural behaviour of timber joints made with fully overlapping nails. (Thesis). Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/2787

An integrated programme of experimental and analytical work was carried out to evaluate the nonlinear
semi-rigid characteristics of timber connections using fully overlapping nails subjected to short
duration lateral loading and moment. The investi... Read More about The Structural behaviour of timber joints made with fully overlapping nails..
