The Use of Torsion Test Method to Evaluate the Shear Properties of Timber Joists (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Khokhar, A., & Zhang, J. (2012). The Use of Torsion Test Method to Evaluate the Shear Properties of Timber Joists. In P. Quenneville (Ed.), Proceedings of the World Conference on Timber Engineering (WCTE 2012)

This paper presents details of the experimental method and test results from a series of torsion tests undertaken to evaluate the shear modulus and shear strength of solid timber joist. The variation of shear modulus within and between test samples,... Read More about The Use of Torsion Test Method to Evaluate the Shear Properties of Timber Joists.

Frequency-based maritime container assignment model for global liner services. (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bell, M. G. H., Angeloudis, P., Liu, X., Fonzone, A., & Hosseinloo, S. H. (2011). Frequency-based maritime container assignment model for global liner services. In TRB 90th Annual Meeting Compendium of Papers DVD

This paper transposes the classic frequency-based transit assignment method of Spiess and Florian to containers demonstrating its promise as the basis for a global maritime container assignment model. In this model, containers are carried by shipping... Read More about Frequency-based maritime container assignment model for global liner services..

Computational issues regarding lattice models for wood (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Reichert, T., & Ridley-Ellis, D. (2010). Computational issues regarding lattice models for wood. In A. Ceccotti (Ed.), 11th World Conference on Timber Engineering 2010 (WCTE 2010) (2127-2132)

This paper describes means to overcome some of the computational issues related to lattice models. The first is the use of a solution technique, different from a Newton-Raphson approach, called the Step-Size-Control (SSC) algorithm to handle strain-s...

“This wall does more for mental health than the uni does”: Theorising Toilet Graffiti as Safe House for Students (2024)
Journal Article
Victoria, M. (online). “This wall does more for mental health than the uni does”: Theorising Toilet Graffiti as Safe House for Students. Innovative Higher Education, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10755-024-09712-w

Despite sometimes being considered unworthy of scholarly attention, the study of toilet graffiti, also known as latrinalia, has nevertheless garnered increasing interest among researchers. Graffiti writing still suffers from the stigma of being assoc... Read More about “This wall does more for mental health than the uni does”: Theorising Toilet Graffiti as Safe House for Students.

Instant messaging: using log files to identify patterns of interaction in group of teenage users. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Davison, B., & Buckner, K. (2005, April). Instant messaging: using log files to identify patterns of interaction in group of teenage users. Presented at IFIP WG 9.3 HOIT2005 Conference, York

This paper presents preliminary findings on teenagers’ use of instant messaging (IM) as an example of an Internet technology. The results are quantitative, being drawn from the information held in users’ IM log files. The current purpose is to valida...
