Benefits of a 3D geological model for major tunnelling works : an example from Farringdon, east-central London, UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In the design of major construction works, the better the ground conditions are known, the more control there is on the assessment of risks for construction, contract and personnel, and ultimately on final costs. Understanding of the ground conditions is

Long-term and recent changes in sea level in the Falkland Islands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Mean sea level measurements made at Port Louis in the Falkland Islands in 1981-2, 1984 and 2009, together with values from the nearby permanent tide gauge at Port Stanley, have been compared to measurements made at Port Louis in 1842 by James Clark Ross.

New solutions for the geoid potential W0 and the Mean Earth Ellipsoid dimensions

open access: yesJournal of Geodetic Science, 2013
Earth Gravitational Models (EGMs) describe the Earth’s gravity field including the geoid, except for its zero-degree harmonic, which is a scaling parameter that needs a known geometric distance for its calibration. Today this scale can be provided by the

Mapping and Scheduling of Directed Acyclic Graphs on An FPFA Tile [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
An architecture for a hand-held multimedia device requires components that are energy-efficient, flexible, and provide high performance. In the CHAMELEON [4] project we develop a coarse grained reconfigurable device for DSP-like algorithms, the so-called
