GCPH Seminar Series 15, lecture 6: Man, the walking animal - architecture, place-making and wellbeing
Justin Bradley . 31 Jul 2019 10:18

In this final lecture in Seminar Series 15, influential architect and urban planner, Riccardo Marini, introduced his thoughts about architecture, ‘place-making’, health and wellbeing. He argued that the path to health, happiness, wealth and wellbeing is one that puts people, their culture and art central to our planning process. As an architect who would define himself as a modernist, Riccardo is acutely aware of the destructive nature of architecture, which does not know where it belongs and who it is there to serve. Over the years he has observed an inability of professionals to listen and learn from past mistakes. Meaningful engagement ensures that people are central to the process of creating our future settlements, and in our endeavours to rethink our existing ones. Driven by his passion for design and designing, he is fascinated by what makes places work and has come to a simple conclusion that places are a reflection of the culture of the people who created them. A good place is one in which people feel happy. Feeling happy, like being well, is a relative state. Riccardo has for many years endeavoured to show that the real value of place is far more profound than monetary value alone, but that the economic indicators which drive a lot of the current decision-making can only be achieved and sustained if you create the genuine article: a place that makes people happy. Riccardo was born in Pistoia, Tuscany, and graduated from Glasgow’s Mackintosh School of Architecture. After working for many years as a senior city officer, he joined Gehl architects in Copenhagen as a director – with whom he still collaborates – and founded Marini Urbanismo in 2017.

How can archaeological archives be used as a resource for formal education in universities and informal education for adult learners?
Justin Bradley . 16 Jul 2019 14:37

Archaeological archives are excellent ex situ resources for learning, however it is generally acknowledged that they are traditionally underused due to a variety of complex factors. The present study investigates how this situation has changed over the past for museums in England with stored archaeological collections, particularly to what extent they are used as a learning tool for formal education in universities and informal education for adult learners today.

Double Integration for Engineering Level 3
Justin Bradley . 28 Jun 2019 14:17

For functions of a single variable there are two types of integration. The first is indefinite integration, which is effectively “differentiation in reverse”, and the second is definite Integration. Before we consider how to integrate functions of two variables, we shall consider the “construction” of definite integrals and extend this idea to double integrals.

The University of Glasgow guide to search strategies for systematic reviews in medical, veterinary and life sciences
Justin Bradley . 28 Jun 2019 14:15

This guide is intended to provide an overview of some of the methodological and practical considerations required when undertaking the search component of a systematic review. The guide signposts to resources to aid the process of undertaking a systematic review and enhance a review’s quality and reporting standards. The guide should, therefore, not be seen as extensive nor a handbook. This resource is not necessarily intended to be read in a linear fashion. As an example, if your search skills require development then you may wish to review the resources in the ‘Developing a search strategy’ section prior to undertaking a scoping search.

Ordinary Differential Equations
Justin Bradley . 26 Jun 2019 15:40

A differential equation is an equation that contains an unknown function, which we need to solve for, and its derivatives. Technically they are ordinary differential equations (ODEs) since they contain ordinary derivatives as opposed to partial derivatives. An equation that contains partial derivatives is called a partial differential equation (PDE). In this module we shall only consider ordinary differential equations. Differential equations are extremely important in science and engineering as they can mathematically describe physical processes such as current flow in electrical systems, motion of mechanical systems, fluid flow, chemical reactions, population dynamics, the spread of infectious diseases, and many other natural phenomena.

Partial Differentiation Level 3 Engineering
Justin Bradley . 24 Jun 2019 08:02

Functions of a single variable, i.e. y = f(x) , are useful in representing a variety of physical phenomena. However, in many real-world situations quantities depend on more than one variable giving rise to functions of several variables.

Matrices for Engineering Level 3
Justin Bradley . 17 Jun 2019 10:50

This unit introduces the theory and application of mathematical structures known as matrices. With the advent of computers matrices have become widely used in the mathematical modelling of practical real-world problems in computing, engineering and business where, for example, there is a need to analyse large data sets. Applications of matrices occur: • in all areas of science to solve (large) systems of equations. • in computer graphics to project three dimensional images onto two dimensional screens and apply transformations to rotate and move these screen objects. • in cryptography to encode messages, computer files, PIN numbers, etc. • in business to formulate and solve linear programming problems to optimise resources subject to a set of constraints.

GCPH Seminar Series 15, Lecture 5, May 2019: What do we need to do Differently to Tackle Obesity Equitably? - New Thinking for Next Steps.
Justin Bradley . 29 May 2019 07:41

Much progress has been made locally, nationally and globally in developing and delivering policies and interventions to prevent obesity. Yet the effectiveness of existing actions remains modest. Importantly, the latest data from Scotland and elsewhere indicates that inequality is rising, with the proportion of children at risk of being affected by overweight or obesity increasing in the most deprived areas while it declines in the least deprived places. This indicates new thinking is needed to tackle the challenge. But how does the thinking - and the doing - really need to change to tackle the problem? Based on 20 years of working in the field, Corinna will outline her thinking on what needs to be done differently to tackle obesity, equitably. She will explore the fundamentals of what this means for acting differently, through engaging with people affected by the problem, taking a more systems-based approach and aligning with economic goals. She will highlight not just what needs to be done, but how it needs to be done differently. Corinna will draw on both her research and practice and provide, as an example of the new thinking, the work of the London Child Obesity Taskforce. Corinna Hawkes is Professor of Food Policy and Director, Centre for Food Policy at City University of London. She is Vice Chair of the London Child Obesity Taskforce and a Distinguished Fellow at the George Institute for Global Health. She is Co-Investigator of the NIHR-funded Obesity Policy Research Unit and was a Commissioner on the Lancet Commission on Obesity. Between 2015-18 she was Co-Chair of the Global Nutrition Report. Her expertise lies in the development and design of public policies and actions throughout the food system to improve diets around the world.

GCU Inaugural Professorial Lecture: Common Good and Real Social Innovation.
Justin Bradley . 21 May 2019 10:08

Professor Stephen Sinclair, co-director of the Scottish Poverty and Inequality Research Unit at Glasgow Caledonian University, delivered his inaugural Professorial Lecture on Tuesday, May 14. The lecture outlined the harmful and divisive social and economic effects of widening inequality and argued that the Common Good can only truly be advanced by rejecting the current amoral economic model, based on spurious ‘individualism’ and a misrepresentation of so-called ‘free’ markets. Professor Sinclair called on policymakers and economic systems to reconnect with the same moral philosophy seen in the work of Adam Smith. He said: “Widening economic inequality and political divisions pose very real threats to social cohesion and in fact to democracy. It is essential to understand the ideologies which have generated these threats, and what is required to re-moralise our political and economic systems so that they truly benefit the common and not merely aggregate good." “The lecture is not technical nor aimed at a specialist audience. It will be of interest to anyone concerned about the economic factors underlying today’s febrile and toxic political climate, and the economic and moral principles required to address these."

GCU Inaugural Professorial Lecture: Sustainable Manufacturing should be able to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
Justin Bradley . 15 May 2019 14:07

Sustainable Manufacturing promotes the creation of products using processes that are non-polluting, conserve energy and natural resources, and are economically sound and safe for employees, communities, and consumers. In this lecture, Professor Anjali De Silva explores how sustainable manufacturing allows industry to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. She draws on her own, and global, research and developments in advanced machining which enhance environmental sustainability by curbing the consumption of vital resources and reducing CO2 and other emissions.

GCU Inaugural Professorial Lecture: The Artificial Intelligence Revolution and Why?
Justin Bradley . 15 May 2019 13:53

Hadi Larijani, Professor of Computer Networks and Intelligent Systems in Glasgow Caledonian University’s Department of Computing, delivered his inaugural Professorial Lecture on March 26. In his lecture, Professor Larijani helped the audience make sense of Artificial Intelligence (AI) by explaining how we use it in everyday life and what the future looks like. He also revealed how his AI research at GCU is helping to change people’s lives for the better – not just here in Scotland – but in developing countries like Rwanda, as part of the University’s Common Good goals. Professor Larijani said: “In my lecture I want to demystify Artificial Intelligence (AI) because a lot of people don’t know what it is and might be anxious or worried about it. “I will look at the positive side of it and how it’s impacting our lives. I think the future is bright as long as we are able to have safety incorporated in how we use AI. “AI has been around for years, it’s nothing new, but the difference is that in the last 10 years we’ve had a very good speed increase in central processing units (CPUs) and specifically graphical processing units (GPU) – the brains of the computers - and computers and the costs have reduced considerably. The second main development is availability of vast amounts of data. “One of the most important areas in AI is artificial neural network (ANN), an interconnected group of nodes, similar to the vast network of neurons in a brain. “Most people use AI but don’t even know it. It has been used very successfully in the last couple of years for example in voice recognition, Google maps, Siri and Google Assistant. “Most people are not aware of the huge benefits to AI such as in internet fraud detection. If your bank sees that out of the blue you’ve spent £1,000 on something you would never usually do, AIs will flag that up and then your bank can try to stop the transaction. “AIs can improve your quality of life and your health. Just one example is that AIs can help the speedy recognition of cancerous cells in your brain. The AI will flag it up quicker with the less probability of error.”

A conversation with Gordon Reid : Masterclass and Honorary Award.
Justin Bradley . 15 May 2019 13:51

Paralympic gold medallist and two times grand slam singles winner Gordon Reid will be giving a talk about how he overcame adversity at a young age to achieving his dream of being a world class athlete. Born in Alexandria, Scotland in 1991, Gordon was a fit, keen and talented tennis player until the week before his 13th birthday, when he was tragically struck down by a rare condition called Transverse Myelitis. Despite being paralysed from the waist down, Gordon bounced back and started playing the game he loved, only this time, in a wheelchair. As a junior on the world wheelchair tennis circuit, Gordon was ranked number 1 and won multiple titles. He has represented GB at the Invacare World Team Cup for the past seven years and led the first British Team to win the World title, beating the French in the final. At the London 2012 Paralympic Games, he reached the quarterfinals of both the singles and doubles events. In 2013, Gordon was the Doubles Masters champion and during the same year, a doubles finalist at Roland Garros. He also became the first British men’s player to win a Super Series singles title at Sydney International and then went on the reach the doubles final at the Australian Open in 2014. In 2016, Gordon won his first ever Grand Slam singles wheelchair title at the Australian Open, followed by the doubles title at Roland Garros. In July, he followed this with his second Grand Slam victory in the inaugural men’s singles wheelchair event at the Championship Wimbledon as well as winning the men’s doubles. And at the Rio Paralympics 2016, representing GB, Gordon won the Gold medal in the men’s wheelchair tennis singles and the Silver medal in the doubles

GCPH Seminar Series 15, Lecture 4, April 2019: From Silence to Speaking: on Silences, Health and the Importance of Being Heard.
Justin Bradley . 23 Apr 2019 10:01

The scale and impact of health inequalities in Scotland is well understood: the gaps in healthy life expectancy between our communities are unjust and avoidable. Much of the work on health inequalities has tended to focus on socioeconomic circumstances as a fundamental cause. However a wide range of social circumstances impact on health, including visible identities and the impact of prejudice and discrimination. In this seminar, Professor Laura Serrant explores the issue of health inequalities though the lens of race and inter-sectional identities. She draws on both her personal and professional experience as a Black practitioner to explore why the experiences of some groups and individuals are missing from health research, professional leadership and service development. She uses her considerable experience to explore the importance of breaking silences to develop our understanding and ask whether we need to reflect more on our own identities as part of our practice, as well as that of our communities. The everyday experiences of racism can impact on the health and wellbeing of those racialised. It is important that policy-makers, researchers, service-planners and employers acknowledge the need for a deeper understanding of what is required by organisations in order to serve diverse perspectives in our systems of healthcare.

Team Design and Project Skills Course Handbook
Justin Bradley . 05 Apr 2019 17:32

Faced with the fast-growing development of the electronics industry, students entering the corporate environment must be able to solve practical problems, work as a team and communicate well. This course was therefore designed to meet the needs of industry and the IET accreditation requirements. In particular, this handbook is intended to answer many questions related to Glasgow University’s flagship course on Team Design and Project Skills. It contains invaluable information about the UESTC 3010 course and what is required from students to be awarded the appropriate credits. Students should remember to keep this handbook safe, since it will be a useful reference throughout the course. This handbook is updated annually and students are advised to take time to study it again. Team Design and Project Skills (TDPS) is a mandatory course of the joint Glasgow College UESTC programme. The course is based on a team learning activity that aims to cultivate students’ professional knowledge, practical skills and core competencies in electronic and communications engineering. Students taking this course should be able to build experience of working in a team to design and construct electronic systems that must perform specific tasks within a specified budget.

Mobile Platform Development: Week 3 - Graphical User Interfaces (GUI)
Justin Bradley . 04 Apr 2019 08:19

As discussed on week 2 presentation, the graphical user interfaces should have user interface (UI) components created specifically for users in order to allow them interact with the apps. Android studio has a range of built in UI modules such as menus, dialogs and UI components such as layout objects and UI controls. The aim of these built in UI features is to enable developers to easily create the state of the art graphical user interface (GUI). Additionally, a range of standard platform resources can be used for designing and programming user interfaces. For instance, classes in the Java language can be used in android applications to shape apps behaviour by implementing various functionality of graphical components. Other than Java class files, XML data can also be used to declare screen layouts.

Mobile Platform Development: Week 2 - Graphical User Interfaces
Justin Bradley . 03 Apr 2019 14:15

As discussed on week 1 presentation part 2, the Android platform has been designed to run on a different types of device, screen sizes, and screen resolutions. This impose lots of challenges to android developers in terms of providing rich components of user interfaces (UI) in response to the need of the specific applications. To overcome this, Android provides a user interfaces(UI) toolkit that can be used by developers to customise UI components of an applications. Android developers relies heavily on using XML framework to create liquid layout that can adapt to these environmental changes. In this week, we are going to use practical ways to shape this framework to fit your specific development needs. There are two important classes in the construction of graphical user interfaces, these are: Views ViewGroups

Literacy Attainment: Historical Resources - full

This guide provides an overview of the different kinds of resources available to track the expansion of elementary education through the voluntary sector at the start of the 19th century, the increasing involvement of the state in its funding and organisation, as well as the development of a professional knowledge base to support these activities. Over this period the resources for literacy teaching in use in schools changed, developing in tandem with the growth of the elementary sector and the specific pedagogic challenges it poses for teaching. The guide represents a selection of the historical resources used by Professor Gemma Moss (https://iris.ucl.ac.uk/iris/browse/profile?upi=PJGMO52) for her ESRC Fellowship on Literacy Attainment and Data Discourse (http://literacyattainmentdataanddiscourse.blogspot.com/).

GCPH Seminar Series 15, Lecture 3, 5 March 2019: Why there is no such thing as financial exclusion.
Justin Bradley . 06 Mar 2019 14:04

In this lecture, Faisel Rahman OBE talked about his experience of building Fair Finance, how his clients have changed over the last 15 years, what he has learnt about financial products in poor communities, and why he thinks financial exclusion is probably the wrong term for this work. Faisel also touched on financial wellbeing and why a holistic approach is needed to be successful in this work. Faisel Rahman has worked in the field of financial exclusion for nearly 20 years. Initially with the Grameen and World Bank in Bangladesh, for the last 17 years he has focused his work in the UK and Europe. In 2000 he set up the first microcredit programme in London’s east end, and in 2005 launched Fair Finance, a social enterprise tackling financial exclusion in the UK. Faisel was the elected President of the European Microfinance Network (2010-2015), was elected an Ashoka Fellow in 2007, and was recognised as a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum in 2009. In 2014 he was awarded an OBE for services to Community Finance. In 2015 he was awarded an honorary doctorate by the University of East London.

Dragons of the Pool
Justin Bradley . 28 Feb 2019 12:01

The little-known history of Chinese seamen who were secretly deported from the UK after the Second World War is to be revealed in an exhibition from Rosa Fong from Edgehill University at the Williamson Art Gallery in Birkenhead. In 1946, the Liverpool Constabulary carried out orders from the British government to deport Chinese sailors in Merseyside, many of whom had travelled to England as part of the war effort. They were forcibly repatriated to China. “More than 1,300 Chinese sailors were put on specially assigned ships and sent to the Far East without notice.” The wives and children of the men believed they had been deserted. It wasn’t until the release of declassified records 50 years later that it was revealed that more than 1,300 Chinese sailors had been put on specially assigned ships and sent to the Far East without notice. Now Edge Hill University, working with local community group "The Dragons of the Pool", will document the stories of the surviving children of the seamen for the first time. Thanks to a £10,000 HLF grant, this year-long project will record video interviews with the seamen’s descendants, now in their seventies, and capture this important part of British Chinese history for future generations. The project’s research will be then be archived in Birkenhead Library. The project will culminate in an exhibition at the Williamson Art Gallery in Birkenhead, inviting the local community to share their stories of the Liverpool Eurasian community. Chinese seamen began to settle in Liverpool from the end of the 1880s and by the start of the 20th century Liverpool had the largest settlement of Chinese in the UK. It is hoped the project will help participants to find out the stories behind their fathers’ disappearance and educate the wider community about the shocking events of 1946. 10 February - 18 March 2018 Open Wednesday to Sunday 10am until 5pm

Ivy Street
Justin Bradley . 22 Feb 2019 11:10

Ivy St is a virtual community and caseload of patients for educational use in teaching palliative and end of life care without the emotional involvement of the real life situations of actual patients and families. It allows the use of standardised situations and the development of a news feed around the activities of the street, to enable the community of practice undertaking a course together to discuss and suggest management plans.

Week 4 - Logarithms
Justin Bradley . 22 Feb 2019 09:45

The previous unit introduced the term exponent to represent the repeated multiplication of a number by itself. For example, the exponent tells us how many times we need to multiply the number 10 by itself to obtain 1000, i.e. three times as 10 × 10 × 10 = 1000. Here the base is 10 and the exponent is 3. We now consider the closely related topic of what power a number must be raised to in order to obtain another number. The number being raised to the power is called the base and value of the power is called the logarithm.

Week 3: Indices and Exponentials

Ulexite
Justin Bradley . 12 Feb 2019 10:38

Ulexite is a naturally occurring mineral with an unusual optical property. The internal fibrous structure of the rock act as naturally occurring optical fibres, transmitting light along their lengths by internal reflection. When a piece of ulexite is cut perpendicular to the orientation of the fibres and polished, it will display an image of whatever surface is adjacent to its other side. This optical property is common for synthetic fibres, but not in minerals. This strange behaviour makes the surface of the rock appear like a screen with the image of what is beneath the rock, projected onto the surface, giving rise to the material’s nick name of ‘TV rock’.

Shape memory actuator
Justin Bradley . 12 Feb 2019 10:38

This metallic wire shaped in a form of a spring is made of a special alloy of nickel and titanium (commonly termed a shape memory alloy) that is able to contract 4% or more when heated and then return to its original shape when cooling. This material’s ability to contract upon heating makes it useful in mechanical devices where heat, which is usually precisely delivered through an electric current, is used to generate some kind of motion. Shape memory actuators (SMA) are found in a wide variety of applications, from medical devices (portable insulin pumps) to computers and vending machines. Explore shape memory actuators on the Institute of Making website: https://www.instituteofmaking.org.uk/materials-library/material/shape-memory-actuator.

Natural rubber
Justin Bradley . 12 Feb 2019 10:38

When a rubber tree is tapped, a white liquid called latex bleeds from a fresh cut in the bark, the major constituent of which is a small carbon based molecule called isoprene. As the latex dries, the isoprene molecules begin to bind to one another and form long chains called polyisoprene. The long chains are intertwined and entangled, and they are quite happy to sit coiled up together due to an electrostatic attraction between them. When rubber is stretched, the individual polymer chains are stretched and line-up, and the order of the molecules is increased. This means that the entropy of the system is decreased and represents the force you feel in the rubber. When the rubber is released, all the chains pull back because this increases the entropy of the system. Explore natural rubber on the Institute of Making website: https://www.instituteofmaking.org.uk/materials-library/material/natural-rubber.

Aerogel
Justin Bradley . 12 Feb 2019 10:38

This is a rare sample of silica aerogel which is essentially a glass foam whose nano-structure contains up to 99.8% air, making it the world's lightest solid. It was made by Steve M. Jones, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory as part of the Stardust research project, which involved sending a spacecraft containing a large piece of aerogel on a close approach to the comet Wild 2 in order to collect space-dust. What made aerogel ideal for the mission was that, this ultra fine foam can gradually decelerate and capture dust particles in pristine condition. The process of then sifting through the aerogel, micron by micron, to identify and collect the space-dust was the world’s largest collaborative microscopy activity. The material appears to be much more invisible than glass despite being less transparent for there is no hint of reflection on its surfaces, giving it the appearance of not being fully solid. Its azure colour is not due to any pigmentation, but is caused by the same phenomenon that gives colour to our Earth's atmosphere, namely Raleigh scattering of light. In other words, it is blue for the same reasons that the sky is blue. Explore aerogel on the Institute of Making website: https://www.instituteofmaking.org.uk/materials-library/material/aerogel.

HDPE plastic waste
Justin Bradley . 12 Feb 2019 10:38

This slightly green tinted blob is a sample of extruded high-density polyethylene (HDPE) that is produced during the recycling process. HDPE is a type of polymer that is now commonly recycled and is used predominantly in the making of plastic bottles. Bottles arrive at the recycling plant and are passed through a giant shredder that chops them up to produce flakes of plastic. The flakes are then passed through a colour sorter to separate out dyed and non-dyed plastics. The white flakes are then heated to temperatures of over 200°C, which turns them into a molten form and eliminates any contamination. The molten plastic is then extruded, filtered, cut into small pellets, and cooled. These pellets are then sold on to make new food-containers and bottles of various recycled content (commonly between 25% and 50%). It is during this final extrusion process where waste material, such as this sample, is excreted out of the extrusion machine, spilling out onto the factory floor. These blobs of plastic, initially very warm to the touch, are collected and sold on for use within non-food safe grade recycled products. The reason that this blob has a slightly green colour to it is that occasionally a coloured flake makes it through into the white flakes pile. The most common colour of plastic is green, so the resultant white can often take on a slight green tinge. In order to reduce the greening effect of the white recycled plastic, the amount of green dye in British semi-skinned milk bottle lids has now been reduced.

Aluminium nitride wafer
Justin Bradley . 12 Feb 2019 10:37

This thin fragile tile of ceramic material conducts the heat from your hand efficiently enough to cut through ice as if it were butter. Heat generated by the fingers is gathered from the two sides of the tile and conducted towards its edges, meaning that when an edge is placed against ice, the concentrated body heat melts the ice away. It is the speed of the conduction of heat that marks this ceramic out as a high performance material. If you hold it carefully between thumb and forefinger and then touch the edge onto you lip you will feel the rapid conduction of heat. Although the existence of this substance has been known of since 1862, it was not developed as a commercial product until the 1980s when its potential for use in electronics was recognised. Even then, early versions of this material were inconsistent. Although its performance has been greatly improved by technologists, its uses have thus far been fairly limited, largely to electronic and military applications, perhaps as a result of its high cost.

Fibrous stainless steel
Justin Bradley . 12 Feb 2019 10:37

These super fine wisps of grey fluff are in fact tiny filaments of stainless steel. Each strand is around a 10th of the thickness of a human hair and make for form of steel like no other – one that is soft and able to be spun into yarns and woven into cloth. If you hold a magnet against the fibres you can see each little hair rise and fall. It still has the weight of steel and is for some a skin irritant as the super fine fibres can tickle. The fibres can be combined with other materials to produce a variety of effects like embedded conductivity and structural reinforcement.

Uranium glass bowl
Justin Bradley . 12 Feb 2019 10:37

This glass bowl is made from sand containing uranium, which not only gives the glass its characteristic green colour, but makes it radioactive and strongly fluorescent. Uranium has long been used as a glass colourant, dating back to the first century AD. Uranium glassware was very popular in the early 20th century; however, production was curtailed when countries started conserving uranium supplies when the world entered the nuclear age during the Second World War. The rim of this particular bowl, which dates from around 1950 and comes from Australia, has been whitened by exposure to mercury.

Ferro Fluid
Justin Bradley . 12 Feb 2019 10:37

On first inspection ferro fluid is easily mistakable for oil, given its dark colouration and ability to flow. But when placed in a magnetic field, it becomes a gel and forms complex geometrical patterns that reflect the magnetic field lines. These rippling, intricate geometries take shape because ferro fluid is composed of 1) a liquid - typically an oil – which allows it to flow when there is no magnetic field, and 2) nanoparticles of iron oxide that align with a magnetic field to restrain the fluid flow. Ferro fluid is a mixture of solid and liquid using an emulsifier to ensure they mix together perfectly to achieve this unusual material behaviour. Ferro fluid was developed in collaboration with NASA in the 1960s to address the issue of moving fuels in zero gravity. Today it’s used in lubricants, as a seal in hard disks, and car suspensions. Ferro fluid also has a strong following of artists who apply its unique properties to generate unique shapes in their work.

Ridged aluminium honeycomb
Justin Bradley . 12 Feb 2019 10:37

Aluminium honeycomb structures can take many different forms – from regular hexagons, to partially compressed diamonds, to elongated, reinforced shapes. Mimicking the geometry of natural honeycomb, these widely varied structures all have one common feature - an array of hollow cells between two thin vertical walls. The combination of strong side panels with light-weight honeycomb core, commonly referred to as sandwich construction, makes for a very solid form through the use of minimal material. With a high strength-to-weight ratio and minimal density honeycomb structures exhibit structural integrity as well as insulative qualities. By increasing the depth, such as this sample, one can increase structural strength along the shape’s Y plane, but if compressed along the X plane this shape will easily deform due to its thin walls. Aluminium honeycomb is widely used throughout aerospace applications (including aircraft and rockets), as well as within architectural applications. But it can also be found in everyday products like packaging material and cardboard.

Self-healing concrete
Justin Bradley . 12 Feb 2019 10:36

In the future we may be surrounded by concrete structures, which are able to self-heal cracks in their structure, with special bacteria doing the job for us. Tiny cracks in concrete do not necessarily affect structural integrity in the short term, but they do allow water and other chemicals to seep into the structure, which may cause big problems over time. Self-healing concrete has dormant bacteria and a food source (starch) embedded in the concrete. When a crack appears in the concrete, water seeps in and reactivates the bacteria. After they awaken, the bacteria eat their packed lunch and then conveniently excrete calcite, which heals the crack. The bacteria can survive dormant in the material for 50 years.

GCU Inaugural Professorial Lecture: Sensors - a flourescence story.
Justin Bradley . 11 Feb 2019 13:51

Professor Smith explains how fluorescence emission from a molecule can be used to interrogate the surrounding environment and hence how sensors based on fluorescence can be developed for a wide range of applications. For more than 30 years, she has been involved in the research of optical-based sensing technologies and has published widely in this area with a particular interest in fluorescence-based sensors applicable to industrial applications. She said: “Fluorescence-based sensing technologies have widespread application, therefore an understanding of how these sensors work and the potential benefits for industry is important.”

Week 4 - Number Systems Part 1
Justin Bradley . 11 Feb 2019 12:02

In this unit we provide a general introduction to number systems and discuss how numbers are represented by computers. We start with a look at the three main systems that occur in computing applications; decimal (base 10), binary (base 2) and hexadecimal (base 16) and describe methods for converting between these three bases. A (very) brief discussion is also presented on conversions involving other bases such as octal (base 8). We then apply the basic techniques we use to add and subtract decimal numbers to enable us to perform these operations manually for binary numbers. The discussion moves on to look at how computers store and represent positive and negative numbers and the concept of signed and unsigned binary numbers is introduced. We present different approaches used by computers for storing numbers with the focus on two’s complement representation. The unit closes with a brief look at a selection of bitwise operators, supported in programming languages such as Java and C, to operate on binary numbers at the bit-level by treating them as strings of bits.

Week 1 + 2 - Logic Part 1
Justin Bradley . 04 Feb 2019 08:45

In this unit we present an introduction to propositional logic, a branch of science that is fundamental in the study of mathematics and computer science. The origin of logic dates back to the 3rd century BC and the Greek philosopher Aristotle who developed the earliest form of logical theory through rules for deductive reasoning. Modern mathematical logic is generally recognised as having started with the work of German mathematician Gottfried Leibniz in the 17th century. In the 19th century two English mathematicians, George Boole and Augustus De Morgan, are credited with extending the work of Leibniz and introducing symbolic logic. Other notable contributors to the development of propositional logic include the mathematicians, Gottlob Frege in Germany and Charles Pierce in the USA. The unit begins with a brief overview of some of the terminology that features in propositional logic and the main logical operators (connectives) that are used in the construction of propositions are discussed in detail. Two special types of proposition known as tautologies and contradictions that are respectively always true or false are then described. The concept of logical equivalence is presented before we look at translating propositions from English to their corresponding symbolic form and vice-versa. The idea of a truth table, introduced earlier during the discussion on connectives, is then presented in further detail and we demonstrate how these tables can be used to prove properties such as logical equivalence. We then discuss how logical equivalence can be used to simplify propositions, identify tautologies and contradictions and prove identities. Next we look at how to determine whether a mathematical argument is valid or invalid based on how well the premises support the conclusion. To close the unit we briefly look at the role logic in computing, including simplifying expressions in computer programming and system specification.

Week 11: Relations on Sets
Justin Bradley . 29 Jan 2019 11:44

In this final unit of the current block we introduce the mathematical concept of relations between sets. We look at how relations differ from functions while noting that a function is actually a special type of relation. Different ways in which relations can be represented are discussed and include ordered pairs, arrow diagrams, matrices and directed graphs. Inverse and composite relations are briefly addressed before we investigate different types of relations (reflexive, symmetric and transitive) and methods for their classification. The important concepts of equivalence relations and equivalence classes are then described along with their properties. In closing the unit we look at the connection between equivalence relations and partitions of sets. The text is supported throughout with relevant examples and where appropriate references for further reading are provided.

Children's Book Corner
Justin Bradley . 24 Jan 2019 20:02

The Children's Book Corner is a collaborative project between the PGCE Primary English team and the UCL IOE Library. It aims to: Expand students' knowledge of children's literature; Provide guidance in selecting books for class focuses and as 'read alouds'; Indicate the wide range of books which should be available for children in the primary and early years classroom, and; Demonstrate the importance of the teacher's role in promoting reading for pleasure. The area includes a model book corner which gives some ideas for how books might be displayed in a classroom setting. The books on display will change through the academic year.

GCU Inaugural Professorial Lecture: Transnational Education (TNE) Partnerships - Critical Success Factors!
Justin Bradley . 24 Jan 2019 09:08

In his lecture, Professor Ahmed Al Bulushi examines Transnational Education (TNE) Partnerships, looking at the academic collaboration between Glasgow Caledonian University and Caledonian College of Engineering in Oman. TNE can be a successful story if challenges are faced with a wise leadership approach. At the same time, potentially successful International Higher Education collaborations can fail if details are ignored. Professor Ahmed Al Bulushi asserts that management of TNE is strategic in its nature; however, every minute operational detail plays a vital role in the success or failure of such collaboration and hence should be given appropriate attention. Human dynamics, financial interest and the global objectives of the collaboration have to be given equal attention and this requires multidisciplinary skills and knowledge. Under Professor Ahmed Al Bulushi’s leadership, CCE has positioned itself as one of the largest private providers of higher education engineering programmes in Oman with a reputation for producing high quality graduates contributing significantly to the economic development and social capital of Oman.

GCU Inaugural Professorial Lecture: The Common Wealth of Glasgow.
Justin Bradley . 23 Jan 2019 15:31

Poverty and disadvantage have become synonymous with the city of Glasgow. In tackling these problems, Professor McKendrick will assert that we must not lose sight of the human resource that is suggested by the city’s favourite marketing mantra: People Make Glasgow. A more prosperous Glasgow need not to be one that dismisses the importance of the resources that enriched the Glasgow of yesteryear. The lecture will draw on autobiographical accounts of professional footballers who grew up in Glasgow, passing conversations overheard on the street and in the pub, the cartography of the city’s changing urban fabric, evidence of poverty and multiple deprivation and a lifetime of being in and around the city. Professor McKendrick will consider the ways in which the city has been portrayed and understood through the seminal accounts of Sidney Checkland, Michael Pacione, Carol Craig and the Glasgow Centre for Population Health, among others. Taking account of the challenges that the city faces today and tomorrow, he will then reflect on the ‘common wealth’ of Glasgow’s past, present and future.

GCU Inaugural Professorial Lecture: Personal Music, Engaging Technologies, Promoting Wellbeing in Everyday Life and Applied Contexts.
Justin Bradley . 23 Jan 2019 09:35

In her inaugural Professorial Lecture, Professor Cassidy explores the potential of Personal Music Technology as a powerful tool for wellbeing in everyday life and health-care contexts including dementia. The talk draws upon a growing body of evidence, including Professor Cassidy’s own research and insights through projects such as the Playlist for Life app for wellbeing in dementia, RockBand and musical identity, and the SingFit app for singing in healthy aging. Professor Cassidy argues that to maximise potential wellbeing benefits of Personal Music Technologies, we need to increase multidisciplinary dialogues and develop co-designed and evidence-based technologies. Such technologies, she argues, should also be evaluated for their impact in contemporary health-care contexts, and related to both existing and novel frameworks of care.

Week 10: Functions
Justin Bradley . 22 Jan 2019 16:08

In this unit, we look at the concept of a function and introduce some important functions that are fundamental in the study of mathematics and computing. The basic idea of a function is illustrated with a simple example before presenting some more formal definitions and terminology. A function defines a relationship between the elements of two sets and we present different ways to express this relationship including arrow diagrams, formulae, graphs and lists of ordered pairs. We look at how to identify whether a relationship is a function before considering whether functions meet specific criteria that classify them as one-to-one and/or onto functions. The idea of an inverse function is then presented and we illustrate how to calculate an inverse function when it exists and interpret the results graphically. The process of combining two, or more, functions through composition is then discussed. The unit closes with a brief look at some functions that commonly occur in computing and mathematics.

GCU Inaugural Professorial Lecture: To Pee or not to Pee, Changing the Paradigm of Continence Care.
Justin Bradley . 22 Jan 2019 14:47

In her lecture, Professor Booth explores developments in continence care and the effective management of urinary bladder symptoms in older adults and stroke survivors. Bladder problems are common in older adults, affecting more than half of older women and a third of older men. The symptoms can have a devastating effect on the person’s quality of life, severely affecting their family and social life. However, up to three-quarters of these people can be helped – or even cured – using simple approaches that support them to understand and self-manage their symptoms. New techniques are also being developed which can help sufferers to actively treat their symptoms. Using evidence from past and current research, Professor Booth explores older adults and stroke survivors’ experiences of bladder problems, and presents new approaches to treatments that could change how they are perceived in the future.

GCU Inaugural Professorial Lecture: Academic Identity in Nursing, are we There Yet?
Justin Bradley . 21 Jan 2019 14:47

In her lecture, Professor Andrew examines aspects of academic identity, exploring a contemporary conception of nursing as an academic and professional discipline. Nurses need professional and academic capability to adapt to changing circumstances and to survive and thrive in unfamiliar and challenging contexts and environments. The way we achieve capability is through education. Professor Andrew asserts that society needs nurses who are both academically and clinically able. She will explore the argument that nurses should not only be immersed in the concept of compassionate caring, but also socially aware and politically savvy; able to influence government policy and impact on the health and wellbeing of the communities they serve.

GCU Inaugural Professorial Lecture: Towards more sustainable construction.
Justin Bradley . 21 Jan 2019 14:29

In her lecture, she explores the challenges faced by the construction industry and its focus on producing sustainable, more eco-friendly and cost-effective cementitious materials. The construction industry is faced with an ever-rising demand for safer and more cost-effective infrastructure, as well as more environmentally-friendly products and processes. To meet these expectations, numerous new composite materials with reduced carbon footprint have been developed over the past couple of decades. However, these materials are often very sensitive to environmental conditions and proper curing is essential to enhance their performance. Thanks to their high capacity to absorb and release water, SAPs can help to control cement’s hydration processes and to avoid cracking during the hardening process. Therefore, it can significantly improve the material’s durability and sustainability.

Virtual Educational Resource for the Biosciences (VERB) resource ‘Eutherians’
Justin Bradley . 21 Jan 2019 14:28

VERB is an online animal diversity resource designed to accompany undergraduate degrees in the Biosciences. In this package, entitled VERB Eutherians, the groups discussed are the living placental mammals. Contained are a series of web pages outlining the diversity of the eutherians from an evolutionary perspective. The topics of focus are phylogeny (evolutionary history) and functional anatomy, but subjects as wide as genetics, ecology, physiology, and developmental biology are discussed where relevant. This file is provided as na .elp file, allowing modification in eXe content packaging software, in addition to subsequent packaging in the desired format (e.g., IMS Content Package, Web Pages).

Vertebrate Diversity study pack
Justin Bradley . 17 Jan 2019 18:09

The following web-book contains a series of information chapters broadly outlining the diversity of living vertebrates, with a few notes on their fossil relatives. Below is a collage of specimens from UCL's Grant Museum of Zoology illustrating the wide diversity covered in this web-book – from jawless vertebrates, sharks, and ray-finned fishes, to amphibians, reptiles, and mammals. To download this resource as a single file, see the collection page: https://open-education-repository.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/204. Also see the related resource Vertebrate Palaeontology and Evolution study pack here: https://open-education-repository.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/195.

Vertebrate Palaeontology and Evolution study pack
Justin Bradley . 17 Jan 2019 17:40

This resource is designed to familiarise you with the structure, diversity and evolutionary history of vertebrates through analysing images of specimens held at UCL’s Grant Museum of Zoology. It contains seven chapters: an introduction to vertebrate diversity, Fishes, the fish-tetrapod transition, Amphibians and Amniotes, Lepidosaurs and Chelonians, Archosaurs, and Birds and flight. All images have accompanying text, including information about the specimen plus hints about what to look for and the questions to consider when analysing the images. Please note that this resource does not look at mammals in detail – instead, this fascinating group are given a more thorough treatment in another Object Based Learning for Higher Education (OBL4HE) resource entitled ‘Vertebrate Diversity’ and the Virtual Educational Resource for the Biosciences (VERB) resource ‘Eutherians’, both of which can be found on JORUM by searching for the key words OBL4HE and VERB respectively. Scalebars are provided throughout (except for models). Please note that there are two different scale bars used, one with 1cm divisions and one with 0.5cm divisions. Multiple images of specimens are provided to try to illustrate the various anatomical features. However, please note that the limitations of photography (especially for specimens in cases or bottles) means that some distortion may occur or parts may be concealed or generally hard to determine.

GCPH Seminar Series 15, Lecture 2 16th January 2019: Health, climate change and sustainable development: engaging policy-makers, politicians, the public and private sectors.
Justin Bradley . 17 Jan 2019 12:08

Despite the strength of the evidence, and the clear health benefits for taking action; health professionals have been reluctant and inconsistent in framing climate change and unsustainable development as health issues. The science concerning the problems of pollution, loss of biodiversity, and dangerous climate change grows daily. However, this seems not to be matched by the science of how best to implement what actually works best in protecting all living systems at the same time as promoting health, wellbeing and social justice across time and space. David used specific case studies to illustrate both the problems and opportunities associated with the transformational change that is needed at all levels of society. He highlighted the more creative, diverse methods and business models being used – legally, economically, and behaviourally, both within health and care systems, and more broadly. These case studies are largely drawn from the first ten years’ experience of the NHS / Public Health England Sustainable Development Unit, and some from more global initiatives.
