Measurements of the Cavitation Threshold of Liquids Under Dynamic Stressing by Pulses of Tension (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Williams, P. R. W., & Williams, R. (2002). Measurements of the Cavitation Threshold of Liquids Under Dynamic Stressing by Pulses of Tension. In A. Imre, H. Maris, & P. Williams (Eds.), Liquids Under Negative Pressure: Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Rese

This paper addresses discrepancies between the results of different measurements of the effective tensile strength F(F c ) of liquids, in experiments in which a pulse of tension (or ’negative pressure’) is created by the reflection of a pressure puls...

The Enterococci. (2002)
Book Chapter
Morrison, D. (2001). The Enterococci. In M. Sussman (Ed.), Molecular Medical Microbiology, 921-936. Academic Press

Enterococci have long been known to cause community acquired infections, such as urinary tract infection and endocarditis. The lack of uniformly effective antimicrobial therapy, together with the potential for enterococci to disseminate resistance de... Read More about The Enterococci..

A symbolic Investigation of pole-zero cancellation for a triple Inverted pendulum (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Woodham, C. A., Su, H., & Larcombe, P. (2002). A symbolic Investigation of pole-zero cancellation for a triple Inverted pendulum.

The balancing of an inverted pendulum is a classic control problem of some thirty years or so standing, whichhas been revisited of late in the light of recent developments in symbolic computation [1,2]. The controllability of the damped double invert... Read More about A symbolic Investigation of pole-zero cancellation for a triple Inverted pendulum.

Laying the foundations: the use of video footage to explore pedestrian dynamics in PEDFLOW (2002)
Book Chapter
Willis, A., Kukla, R., Kerridge, J., & Hine, J. (2002). Laying the foundations: the use of video footage to explore pedestrian dynamics in PEDFLOW. In M. Schreckenberg, & S. Sharma (Eds.), Pedestrian and Evacuation Dynamics (181-186). Springer

This paper is concerned with how video footage of pedestrian activity in various urban environments can be used to inform the development of PEDFLOW - a microscopic, agent-based model of pedestrian flow that can be used to simulate the effects of an...

Understanding the growth in service trips and developing transport modelling approaches to commercial, service and light goods movements. (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wigan, M., Browne, M., Allen, J., & Anderson, S. (2002). Understanding the growth in service trips and developing transport modelling approaches to commercial, service and light goods movements.

Freight modelling and analysis has recently risen in importance. However although the concentration to date on specifically 'freight' vehicles and lorries has begun to cover the bulk of commodity tonnage flows, it has not properly addressed the mix o...

Personal data space in organisations: managing personal knowledge and identity. (2002)
Book Chapter
Wigan, M. (2002). Personal data space in organisations: managing personal knowledge and identity. In L. Holmes, D. M. Hosking, & M. Grieco (Eds.), Organising in the Information Age: Distributed Technology, Distributed Leadership, Distributed Identity, Dis

Identity and information ownership are increasingly confused. One of the key aspects of this area of dispute is the personal data space within which people perceive that they operate. This concept allows many of the attitudes and behaviours in organi... Read More about Personal data space in organisations: managing personal knowledge and identity..
