Journal Article
Thomas, N. (in press). "Stark, necessary and not permanent": huts in the work of Paul Celan and J.H. Prynne. German Life and Letters, 69(3), https://doi.org/10.1111/glal.12124

This article examines the motif of the hut in the work of Paul Celan and J. H. Prynne, as a metaphor for poetry which also mediates the relationship between poetry, language and place. Both Prynne and Celan’s use of the hut motif intersects with the... Read More about "Stark, necessary and not permanent": huts in the work of Paul Celan and J.H. Prynne.

Validation of spatial microsimulation models: a proposal to adopt the Bland-Altman method
Journal Article
Timmins, K. A., & Edwards, K. L. (in press). Validation of spatial microsimulation models: a proposal to adopt the Bland-Altman method. International Journal of Microsimulation, 9(2),

Model validation is recognised as crucial to microsimulation modelling. However, modellers encounter difficulty in choosing the most meaningful methods to compare simulated and actual values. The aim of this paper is to introduce and demonstrate a me... Read More about Validation of spatial microsimulation models: a proposal to adopt the Bland-Altman method.

A comparison of the economic value for enteric methane emissions with other biological traits associated with dairy cows
Journal Article
Bell, M. J., Pryce, J., & Wilson, P. (in press). A comparison of the economic value for enteric methane emissions with other biological traits associated with dairy cows. https://doi.org/10.21694/2379-1047.16002

This is the first study to derive the economic value of enteric methane produced by a ruminant animal. There is considerable interest globally in selecting for low methane-emitting ruminant livestock, as methane is a potent greenhouse gas. However, b...

Laser-generated Lamb waves, coupled with a large bandwidth Michelson interferometer, have been demonstrated to accurately measure the thickness of a MEMS pressure sensor diaphragm in the [110] direction of a silicon wafer. Using the reassigned Gabor... Read More about Laser ultrasound measurement of diaphragm thickness, Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio in a MEMS device.

Low-frequency wide band-gap elastic/acoustic metamaterials using the K-damping concept
Journal Article
Antoniadis, I., Chatzi, E., Chronopoulos, D., Paradeisiotis, A., Sapountzakis, I., & Konstantopoulos, S. (in press). Low-frequency wide band-gap elastic/acoustic metamaterials using the K-damping concept

The terms “acoustic/elastic meta-materials” describe a class of periodic structures with unit cells exhibiting local resonance. This localized resonant structure has been shown to result in negative effective stiffness and/or mass at frequency ranges...

Troubleshooting methods for the generation of novel pseudotyped viruses
Journal Article
King, B., Temperton, N., Grehan, K., Scott, S., Wright, E., Tarr, A. W., & Daly, J. M. Troubleshooting methods for the generation of novel pseudotyped viruses. Future Virology,

A pseudotyped virus (PV) is a virus particle with an envelope protein originating from a different virus. The ability to dictate which envelope proteins are expressed on the surface has made pseudotyping an important tool for basic virological studie...

‘Ceremonious ape!’: creaturely poetics and anthropomorphic acts
Journal Article
Anderton, J. ‘Ceremonious ape!’: creaturely poetics and anthropomorphic acts. Performance Research, 20(2),

Creaturely life partly refers to the nostalgia for a former human status hinged on normative, established forms of signification. In response, creaturely poetics is concerned with ways of composing the accentuated material and categorical vulnerabili...

Placing fashion: art, space, display and the building of luxury fashion markets through retail design
Journal Article
Crewe, L. Placing fashion: art, space, display and the building of luxury fashion markets through retail design. Progress in Human Geography,

This paper explores the performative and affective affordances enshrined in contemporary fashion space. Fashion markets need to be placed in a much more serious conceptual way. Whilst much critical attention has been focused on the geographies of fas... Read More about Placing fashion: art, space, display and the building of luxury fashion markets through retail design.
