Widening participation: what does it mean for the University of Hertfordshire?
(2008)Different target groups for widening participation (WP) are surveyed and those most relevant to the university identified. The university is very active in outreach and targeted recruitment. However, an equally important ... -
Widening the gap between measurement and modelling of secondary organic aerosol properties?
(2010)The link between measured sub-saturated hygroscopicity and cloud activation potential of secondary organic aerosol particles produced by the chamber photo-oxidation of alpha-pinene in the presence or absence of ammonium ... -
The wider picture: Parallel evidence in America and Australia

WiGlove : A Passive Dynamic Orthosis for Home-based Post-stroke Rehabilitation of Hand and Wrist
(2023-09-11)Stroke survivors often experience varying levels of motor function deficits in their hands affecting their ability to perform activities of daily life. Recovering their hand functions through neurorehabilitation is a ... -
Wigner flow reveals topological order in quantum phase space dynamics
(2013-01)The behaviour of classical mechanical systems is characterised by their phase portraits, the collections of their trajectories. Heisenberg's uncertainty principle precludes the existence of sharply defned trajectories, ... -
Wigner's quantum phase space current in weakly anharmonic weakly excited two-state systems
(2017-09-30)There are no phase-space trajectories for anharmonic quantum systems, but Wigner’s phase-space representation of quantum mechanics features Wigner current J . This current reveals fine details of quantum dynamics – finer ... -
Wigner's representation of quantum mechanics in integral form and its applications
(2017-02-27)We consider quantum phase space dynamics using the Wigner representation of quantum mechanics. We stress the usefulness of the integral form for the description of Wigner's phase space current~$\bm J$ as an alternative to ... -
Wigner-Current in One-Dimensional Bound-State Systems
(2019-03-27)The behaviour of classical systems is characterised by their phase portraits; the collections of their trajectories. In quantum mechanics phase portraits are still considered impossible to compute due to the complexity of ... -
A Wii Bit of Fun: A Novel Platform to Deliver Effective Balance Training to Older Adults
(2015-10-28)BACKGROUND: Falls and fall-related injuries are symptomatic of an aging population. This study aimed to design, develop, and deliver a novel method of balance training, using an interactive game-based system to promote ... -
Wiki-based process framework for blended learning
(ACM Press, 2007)With few exceptions, currently published research on the educational use of wikis does not include how the learning activities should be shaped, planned or enforced in a wiki [11]. In this paper we aim to fill that gap by ... -
Wiki-supported collaborative learning
(Nova Science Publishers, 2011)The aim of this chapter is to increase the understanding of how wikis can be used effectively to support collaborative learning in the context of higher education, and in particular, 1) To identify the relevant theories ... -
Wild bee toxicity data for pesticide risk assessments
(2019-07-11)Pollination services are vital for agriculture, food security and biodiversity. Although many insect species provide pollination services, honeybees are thought to be the major provider of this service to agriculture. ... -
Wilfred Sellars, perceptual consciousness and theories of attention
(2004)The problem of the richness of visual experience is that of finding principled grounds for claims about how much of the world a person actually sees at any given moment. It is argued that there are suggestive parallels ... -
Wilkie Collins : A Literary Life
(Palgrave Macmillan, 2008)This new biography focuses on the career of the popular Victorian novelist Wilkie Collins (1824-89) and provides a new account of his professional life in the literary world of nineteenth-century Britain. It draws on ... -
Will IMP Save The World? : Reflections on the role of networks in sustainable marketing
(2009)Purpose of the paper and literature addressed – This paper is a conceptual paper that builds on Ryan et al (2008) proposition that the IMP perspective supports the creation of a Sustainable Marketing framework. The author ... -
Wind regime changes in the Euro-Atlantic region driven by late-Holocene Grand Solar Minima
(2022-07-30)Understanding atmospheric response to radiative forcing, including the intensity and distribution of wind patterns is critical as this might have important implications in the coming decades. Long-term episodes of reduced ... -
Wind Shielding Analysis for Cold Regions Using Experimental and Numerical Techniques
(2016-08-16)The thesis presents a systematic experimental and numerical study on the interactions among porous fence, airflow, and windblown snowdrifts, a knowledge that will contribute to optimize the performance of porous wind ... -
Wind Turbine Active Fault Tolerant Control Based on Backstepping Active Disturbance Rejection Control and a Neurofuzzy Detector
(2023-07-18)Wind energy conversion systems have become an important part of renewable energy history due to their accessibility and cost-effectiveness. Offshore wind farms are seen as the future of wind energy, but they can be very ...
