  • Airport road access design solutions: a conceptual study of wayfinding systems 
    Anuar, Nur Khairiel; Pagliari, Romano; Moxon, Richard (Unknown, 2014-06-06)
    The growth of the airport in the world will have a significant impact on future road access design. Pressure by drivers for simplifying of airport wayfinding has led to the inclusion of basic road access design so as to ...
  • Airport safety, capacity and investment 
    Brooker, Peter (2005-07-12)
    The title ‘Airport Safety, Capacity and Investment’ could potentially cover an enormous range of topics and approaches. Techniques used include probabilistic risk analysis, queueing theory, operational research, and cost ...
  • Airport surface access in the UK: A management perspective 
    Budd, Thomas; Ison, Stephen; Ryley, Tim (Elsevier, 2011-05-24)
    Air passenger traffic in the UK has increased significantly over the last 30 years, and is forecast to continue to grow for the foreseeable future. A key associated challenge for airports involves the management of airport ...
  • Airship-assisted space launch. 
    Guenov, Marin D.; Peyron, Vincent (2004-03-01)
    Introduction Being lighter-than-air, airships do not seem to be an obvious platform choice for dropping of heavy objects. We have challenged the idea and this paper presents the summary of a speculative concept which ...
  • Al-based MOF derived self-assembled carbon nanosheets as innovative anodes for Li-and Na-ion batteries 
    Zeng, Xie-Rong; Wenwu, Jin; Li, Hejun; Saikumar, Inguva; Zhang, Qi; Shaozhong, Zeng; Guozhong, Xu; Zou, Jizhao (IOP, 2019-12-20)
    Functional modification and structural design of carbon electrode materials are considered as a cost-effective method to improve their electrochemical performance. In this study, a solvothermal method is applied to realize ...
  • Algae reactors for wastewater treatment 
    Whitton, Rachel Louise (Cranfield University, 2016-02)
    The onset of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) will challenge water utilities to further reduce their wastewater phosphorus discharges to < 0.5 mg.L- 1 . Whilst conventional treatments, such as chemical dosing, are ...
  • Algal remediation of CO2 and nutrient discharges: a review
