The relative conformational energies in the 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) molecule have been extensively studied using B3LYP and MP2 ab initio methods, employing a range of commonly used basis sets. These conformational energies have been used to fit new... Read More about Developing a force field for simulation of poly(ethylene oxide) based upon ab initio calculations of 1,2-dimethoxyethane.

Enhancement of the relaxivities of Gd-based MRI contrast agents is achieved by placing the metal ion at the barycentre of the molecular complex in order to improve motional coupling.

An investigation into the excitation migration in polyfluorene solutions via temperature dependent fluorescence anisotropy. (2005)

Fluorescenceanisotropy of dilute polyfluorene polymer solutions has been used to show that two processes, exciton migration and conformational relaxation (twisting of part of the chain), occur within polyfluorene polymers of 20 or more repeat units....

The graph-theoretic operation of rooted subtree prune and regraft is increasingly being used as a tool for understanding and modelling reticulation events in evolutionary biology. In this paper, we show that computing the rooted subtree prune and reg... Read More about On the computational complexity of the rooted subtree prune and regraft distance.

Hemispheric asymmetry in spatial attention across the menstrual cycle (2005)
Journal Article
Hausmann, M. (2005). Hemispheric asymmetry in spatial attention across the menstrual cycle. Neuropsychologia, 43(11), 1559-1567. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2005.01.017

Functional cerebral asymmetries (FCAs) are known to fluctuate across the menstrual cycle. The mechanisms of these sex hormonal modulations are poorly understood. It has been suggested that gonadal steroid hormones might suppress or specifically activ... Read More about Hemispheric asymmetry in spatial attention across the menstrual cycle.

Le Jardin, la carrière, le chantier: les métaphores de la création littéraire chez les Rhétoriqueurs (2005)
Journal Article
Cowling, D. (2005). Le Jardin, la carrière, le chantier: les métaphores de la création littéraire chez les Rhétoriqueurs. Moyen français, 69-83

Nous proposons dans cet article une vue d’ensemble sur les métaphores les plus courantes employées par les Rhétoriqueurs, à partir des années cinquante du quinzième siècle jusqu’à la fin de la première décennie du seizième siècle, pour parler de leur...

La Réconciliation (2005)
Journal Article
Wiseman, B. (2005). La Réconciliation. L'Homme (Paris. 1961), 175-176, 397-418

This paper examines Claude Lévi-Strauss works in the light of the concept of totality. It relates his anthropological analysis of the totalising processes at work in wild‚ modes of thought to the structural theory of the work of art. In doing so, it... Read More about La Réconciliation.

Lightweight ironless-stator PM generators for direct-drive wind turbines (2005)
Journal Article

A permanent-magnet electrical machine that employs lightweight spoked structures for both rotor and stator is described. The stator is ironless so that there is no direct magnetic attraction between rotor and stator. The lightweight structures are su...

Long term tension stiffening effects in concrete (2005)
Journal Article
Scott, R., & Beeby, A. (2005). Long term tension stiffening effects in concrete. ACI Structural Journal, 102(1), 31-39

Long-term tension-stiffening effects in beams and slabs were investigated by a comprehensive series of laboratory tests. Most tests used square prisms reinforced with a single, central bar loaded in pure tension but, in addition, a small number of sl... Read More about Long term tension stiffening effects in concrete.

In this paper we present several ideas toward the solution to the giant graviton puzzle-the apparent multiplicity of supergravity states dual to field theory chiral primary operators. We use the fact that, for certain ranges of the angular momentum,... Read More about Towards the solution to the giant graviton puzzle.

The spin-correlated radical pair [P700+A1-] gives rise to a characteristic "out-of-phase" electron spin-echo signal. The electron spin-echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) of these signals has been studied in thylakoids prepared from the wild-type strain...
