There’s no place like home: cage odours and place preference in subordinate CD-1 male mice (2006)
Journal Article
Fitchett, A. E., Barnard, C. J., & Cassaday, H. J. (2006). There’s no place like home: cage odours and place preference in subordinate CD-1 male mice. Physiology and Behavior, 87(5), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physbeh.2006.02.010

Prior studies using mice have shown that scent marks are an important source of information and can cause behavioural changes in other individuals. Studies have also shown that scent marks in the environment can affect the outcome of social interacti...

Rail passenger crowding, stress, health and safety in Britain (2006)
Journal Article
Cox, T., Houdmont, J., & Griffiths, A. (2006). Rail passenger crowding, stress, health and safety in Britain. Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice, 40, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tra.2005.07.001

There has long been a question as to whether crowding in rail passenger transport poses a threat to passenger health related to the experience of stress. A review of the scientific literature was conducted. Little rail-specific empirical research was... Read More about Rail passenger crowding, stress, health and safety in Britain.

A bistable reaction-diffusion system in a stretching flow (2006)
Journal Article
Cox, S. M., & Gottwald, G. A. (2006). A bistable reaction-diffusion system in a stretching flow. Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena, 216(2),

We examine the evolution of a bistable reaction in a one-dimensional stretching flow, as a model for chaotic advection. We derive two reduced systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) for the dynamics of the governing advection-reaction-diffu...

Class-D audio amplifiers with negative feedback (2006)
Journal Article
Cox, S. M., & Candy, B. H. (2006). Class-D audio amplifiers with negative feedback. SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 66(2),

There are many different designs for audio amplifiers. Class-D, or switching, amplifiers generate their output signal in the form of a high-frequency square wave of variable duty cycle (ratio of on time to off time). The square-wave nature of the ou...

Towards the systematic simplification of mechanistic models (2006)
Journal Article
Cox, G., Gibbons, J., Wood, A., Ramsden, S., & Crout, N. J. (2006). Towards the systematic simplification of mechanistic models. Ecological Modelling, 198,

Mechanistic models used for prediction should be parsimonious, as models which are over-parameterised may have poor predictive performance. Determining whether a model is parsimonious requires comparisons with alternative model formulations with diff... Read More about Towards the systematic simplification of mechanistic models.

Molecular evidence that Heligmosomoides polygyrus from laboratory mice and wood mice are separate species (2006)
Journal Article
Cable, J., Harris, P., Lewis, J., & Behnke, J. (2006). Molecular evidence that Heligmosomoides polygyrus from laboratory mice and wood mice are separate species. Parasitology, 133(1), https://doi.org/10.1017/S0031182006000047

The gastro-intestinal (GI) nematode Heligmosomoides polygyrus is an important experimental model in laboratory mice and a well-studied parasite of wood mice in the field. Despite an extensive literature, the taxonomy of this parasite in different hos...

Psychiatric treatment: in the absence of law?: R (on the application of B) v. Ashworth Hospital Authority and another, [2005] U.K.H.L. 20 (2006)
Journal Article
Bartlett, P. (2006). Psychiatric treatment: in the absence of law?: R (on the application of B) v. Ashworth Hospital Authority and another, [2005] U.K.H.L. 20. Medical Law Review, 15(1), https://doi.org/10.1093/medlaw/fwi037

This case concerns the scope of the compulsory treatment provisions of the Mental Health Act 1983. In particular, it determines whether persons confined under that Act may be compulsorily treated for any mental disorder or only for the form of mental...

The effect of the hookworm Ancylostoma ceylanicum on the mucosal architecture of the small intestine in hamsters (2006)
Journal Article
Alkazmi, L., Dehlawi, M., & Behnke, J. (2006). The effect of the hookworm Ancylostoma ceylanicum on the mucosal architecture of the small intestine in hamsters. Journal of Helminthology, 80(4), https://doi.org/10.1017/JOH2006372

Hookworms are known to cause marked changes to the intestinal mucosa, especially in relation to erosion of the villi. However, since the development of enteropathy has not been examined thoroughly through quantitative experiments on infected animals,...
