This paper explores recent developments in the trade-offs between energy security, sustainability and globalisation, focusing on the European Union (EU) energy market. The EU's desire to secure long-term supplies of ...
A Nonlinear Model of Newborn EEG with Nonstationary Inputs
(
Springer US
, 2010 , Article)
Newborn EEG is a complex multiple channel
signal that displays nonstationary and nonlinear characteristics.
Recent studies have focussed on characterizing the
manifestation of seizure on the EEG for the purpose of
automated ...

An epidemiological survey investigating rotavirus infection in children was undertaken in the coastal region of Tunisia from January 2000 through September 2003. A total of 309 fecal specimens were screened by enzyme-linked ...
Multiple-view time-frequency distribution based on the empirical mode decomposition
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2010 , Article)
This study proposes a novel, composite time-frequency distribution (TFD) constructed using a multiple-view approach. This composite TFD utilises the intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) of the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) ...

Fundamental group and cycle space of dual graphs and applications
(
Elsevier
, 2010 , Article)
In this work, we study the fundamental group of dual graph of a planar graph. Moreover, we show that a planar graph G has no cut vertex if and only if N(Π(D(G))) = N(Π(D(G − v))) − 1 for any v ∈ V(G). Some applications ...

(
Elsevier
, 2010 , Article)
Collision cell inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (CC-ICP-MS) was investigated as a possible alternative to nuclear analytical techniques for the determination of 210Pb. The formation of isobaric and polyatomic ...
