Convergent adaptive finite element methods for photonic crystal applications (2010)
Journal Article

We prove the convergence of an adaptive finite element method for computing the band structure of 2D periodic photonic crystals with or without compact defects in both the TM and TE polarization cases. These eigenvalue problems involve non-coerci... Read More about Convergent adaptive finite element methods for photonic crystal applications.

Assessing the accuracy of land cover change with imperfect ground reference data (2010)
Journal Article

The ground data used as a reference in the validation of land cover change products are often not an ideal gold standard but degraded by error. The effects of ground reference data error on the accuracy of land cover change detection and the accuracy...

Investigating immune system aging: system dynamics and agent-based modeling (2010)
Book Chapter

System dynamics and agent based simulation models can both be used to model and understand interactions of entities within a population. Our modeling work presented here is concerned with understanding the suitability of the different types of simul...

Defining a simulation strategy for cancer immunocompetence (2010)
Book Chapter

Although there are various types of cancer treatments, none of these currently take into account the e®ect of ageing of the immune system and hence altered responses to cancer. Recent studies have shown that in vitro stimulation of T cells can help i... Read More about Defining a simulation strategy for cancer immunocompetence.

STORM - a novel information fusion and cluster interpretation technique (2010)
Book Chapter

Analysis of data without labels is commonly subject to scrutiny by unsupervised machine learning techniques. Such techniques provide more meaningful representations, useful for better understanding of a problem at hand, than by looking only at the da...

Vorsprung durch Technik: multi-display learning spaces and art-historical method (2010)
Conference Proceeding

The trajectory and heuristic success of Art History as a discipline has always been inseparably linked to the technical means of visualizing the material that is at its core. When in the late 19th century first analogous, then double-slide projection... Read More about Vorsprung durch Technik: multi-display learning spaces and art-historical method.

The rhetoric of multi-display learning spaces: exploratory experiences in visual art discipines (2010)
Journal Article

Brett Bligh and Katharina Lorenz of The University of Nottingham, present the Multi-Display Learning Spaces (MD-LS) in this article. It comprises technologies to allow the viewing of multiple simultaneous visual materials, modes of learning which enc...

A qualitative investigation into the rehabilitation experience of patients following wrist fracture (2010)
Journal Article

Introduction. Fractures of the wrist are often highly traumatic, leading to significant pain and reduction in an individual’s home, work and leisure roles for a considerable time. Among the studies on wrist fracture, there is limited evidence which... Read More about A qualitative investigation into the rehabilitation experience of patients following wrist fracture.

Analysis of a stochastic SIR epidemic on a random network incorporating household structure (2010)
Journal Article

This paper is concerned with a stochastic SIR (susceptible-infective-removed) model for the spread of an epidemic amongst a population of individuals, with a random network of social contacts, that is also partitioned into households. The behaviour o... Read More about Analysis of a stochastic SIR epidemic on a random network incorporating household structure.

An SIR epidemic model on a population with random network and household structure and several types of individuals (2010)
