The implications of ISO 717 spectrum adaption terms for residential dwellings. (2003)
Journal Article
Mackenzie, R., & Smith, S. (2003). The implications of ISO 717 spectrum adaption terms for residential dwellings. Proceedings of the Institute of Acoustics, 25,

In 2001 new proposals were issued for public consultation regarding changes to the English and Welsh Building Regulations Part E "resistance to the passage of sound" and guidance document Approved Document E. Several major changes were proposed in... Read More about The implications of ISO 717 spectrum adaption terms for residential dwellings..

Thermal modelling and optimization of heat transfer in a high-temperature theatre luminaire (2003)
Journal Article
Anderson, D. E., Truslove, T. E., & Kubie, J. (2003). Thermal modelling and optimization of heat transfer in a high-temperature theatre luminaire. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science, 217(9), 1039-1048. https://doi.org/10.1243/095440603322407272

A computational fluid dynamics model has been developed to predict the thermal performance of high-temperature theatre luminaires. The theoretical results are in good agreement with available experimental data. The model has been used to investigate...

Evaluating soundscapes as a means of creating a sense of place (2003)
Conference Proceeding
Turner, P., McGregor, I., Turner, S., & Carroll, F. (2003). Evaluating soundscapes as a means of creating a sense of place.

We report an empirical study into the creation of, and response to, a soundscape of a computer centre. We contrast the use of presence questionnaires, as means of assessing the sense of being-there, against a more phenomenological approach. We con...

Unconventional Hamilton-type variational principle in phase space and symplectic algorithm. (2003)
Journal Article
Luo, E., Huang, W., & Zhang, J. (2003). Unconventional Hamilton-type variational principle in phase space and symplectic algorithm. SCIENCE CHINA Physics, Mechanics and Astronomy, 46, 248-258. https://doi.org/10.1360/03yg9033

By a novel approach proposed by Luo, the unconventional Hamilton-type variational principle in phase space for elastodynamics of multidegree-of-freedom system is established in this paper. It not only can fully characterize the initial-value problem... Read More about Unconventional Hamilton-type variational principle in phase space and symplectic algorithm..
