Assessing the Sheltering Response in the Middle East: Studying Syrian Camps in Jordan (2017)
Journal Article
Alshawawreh, L., Smith, R. S., & B. Wood, J. (2017). Assessing the Sheltering Response in the Middle East: Studying Syrian Camps in Jordan. Proceedings of the World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology, 4(8), 1881-1887

This study focuses on the sheltering response in the Middle East, specifically through reviewing two Syrian refugee camps in Jordan, involving Zaatari and Azraq. Zaatari camp involved the rapid deployment of tents and shelters over a very short perio... Read More about Assessing the Sheltering Response in the Middle East: Studying Syrian Camps in Jordan.

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...

Evaluation of a new photodiode sensor for measuring global and diffuse irradiance, and sunshine duration. (2007)
Journal Article
Wood, J., Muneer, T., & Kubie, J. (2007). Evaluation of a new photodiode sensor for measuring global and diffuse irradiance, and sunshine duration. Journal of Solar Energy Engineering, 125, 1-6. https://doi.org/10.1115/1.1531149

A new integrated device (called the BF3) has been developed, which enables the simultaneous measurement of horizontal global and diffuse irradiance as well as sunshine presence at any time. The sensor needs no specific polar alignment or routine adju... Read More about Evaluation of a new photodiode sensor for measuring global and diffuse irradiance, and sunshine duration..
