X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy study of the passive films formed on thermally sprayed and wrought Inconel 625 (2010)
Journal Article

There is a well known performance gap in corrosion resistance between thermally sprayed corrosion resistant coatings and the equivalent bulk materials. Interconnected porosity has an important and well known effect, however there are additional relev...

Horizontal policies in public procurement: a taxonomy (2010)
Journal Article

Public procurement is widely used to promote objectives of an economic, environmental and social nature, such as the economic development of disadvantaged social groups. This article elaborates a detailed taxonomy of such “horizontal” policies. This... Read More about Horizontal policies in public procurement: a taxonomy.

Continuing to care for people with dementia: Irish family carers' experience of their relative's transition to a nursing home (2010)
Book

The purpose of this study is to describe carers’ experience of the transition of their relative who has dementia to nursing home care. It is intended that this will provide evidence-based guidance for the development of initiatives to support carers....

When worlds collide: combining Ordnance Survey and Open Street Map data (2010)
Conference Proceeding

The context of this paper is the progress of national and international spatial data infrastructures such as the UK Location Programme and INSPIRE, contrasted against crowd-sourced geospatial databases such as Open Street Map. While initiatives such... Read More about When worlds collide: combining Ordnance Survey and Open Street Map data.

Performance evaluation of DCA and SRC on a single bot detection (2010)
Journal Article

Malicious users try to compromise systems using new techniques. One of the recent techniques used by the attacker is to perform complex distributed attacks such as denial of service and to obtain sensitive data such as password information. These com...

Investigation into the effect of beam shape on melt pool characteristics using analytical modelling (2010)
Journal Article

An established analytical model is used to simulate an extended laser beam. Multiple Gaussian sources are superimposed to form a rectangular beam and results are compared with a single circular Gaussian source model as well as experimental results fr...

Theory and language of climate change communication (2010)
Journal Article

Climate change communication has become a salient topic in science and society. It has grown to be something like a booming industry alongside more established ‘communication enterprises’, such as health communication, risk communication, and science...

High throughput methods applied in biomaterial development and discovery (2010)
Journal Article

The high throughput discovery of new materials can be achieved by rapidly screening many different materials synthesised by a combinatorial approach to identify the optimal material that fulfils a particular biomedical application. Here we review the... Read More about High throughput methods applied in biomaterial development and discovery.
