Effect of foot orthoses on the kinematics and kinetics of normal walking gait. (2003)
Journal Article
Nester, C., van der Linden, M., & Bowker, P. (2003). Effect of foot orthoses on the kinematics and kinetics of normal walking gait. Gait and Posture, 17, 180--187. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0966-6362%2802%2900065-6

Despite their wide clinical application and success, our understanding of the biomechanical effects of foot orthoses is relatively limited. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of medially wedged and laterally wedged foot orthoses on the ki...

Journal Article
Toro, B., Nester, C., & Farren, P. (2003). The status of gait assessment among physiotherapists in the United Kingdom. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 84, 1878--1884. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0003-9993%2803%2900482-9

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate how physiotherapists are trained in and use clinically orientated gait assessment tools and instrumented gait analysis, and to identify if a need exists for a standardized methodology. DESIGN: Survey. SETTING: UK National Heal... Read More about The status of gait assessment among physiotherapists in the United Kingdom..

The problem with measuring patient perceptions of outcome with existing outcome measures in foot and ankle surgery. (2003)
Journal Article
Parker, J., Nester, C., Long, A., & Barrie, J. (2003). The problem with measuring patient perceptions of outcome with existing outcome measures in foot and ankle surgery. Foot and Ankle International, 24, 56--60. https://doi.org/10.1177/107110070302400109

Quality outcome measures are the cornerstone of clinical research. A review of outcome measures used in foot and ankle surgery research reveals that the issues of validity, reliability and responsiveness of outcome measures have not been addressed. M...

Transverse plane motion at the ankle joint. (2003)
Journal Article
Nester, C., Findlow, A., Bowker, P., & Bowden, P. (2003). Transverse plane motion at the ankle joint. Foot and Ankle International, 24, 164--168. https://doi.org/10.1177/107110070302400211

The ankle is often considered to have little or no capacity to move in the transverse plane. This is clear in the persistent concept that it is the role of the subtalar joint to accommodate the transverse plane motion of the leg while the foot remain...

Effect of local variations in interlayer coupling on magnetization reversal in spin-valve multilayers (2003)
Journal Article
Telling, N., Jones, G., Georgieva, M., & Grundy, P. (2004). Effect of local variations in interlayer coupling on magnetization reversal in spin-valve multilayers. Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials, 272-276, 1274-1275. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmmm.2003.12.452

Using a simple phenomenological model we have studied magnetization reversal in spin-valve systems in the presence of local variations in interlayer coupling. By considering a Gaussian distribution of the coupling energy it is shown that for a suffic...

Fe M2,3 X-ray resonant magnetic reflectivity on epitaxial Fe3−δO4 thin films (2003)
Journal Article
Telling, N., Haznar, A., van der Laan, G., Roper, M., Schedin, F., & Thornton, G. (2004). Fe M2,3 X-ray resonant magnetic reflectivity on epitaxial Fe3−δO4 thin films. Physica B: Condensed Matter, 345(1-4), 157-160. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physb.2003.11.044

We report the use of soft X-ray resonant reflectivity at the Fe M2,3 edges to probe the magnetic circular dichroism of non-stoichiometric Fe3−δO4 thin films grown epitaxially on Al2O3. Photon energy scans of the magnetic dichroism display features th... Read More about Fe M2,3 X-ray resonant magnetic reflectivity on epitaxial Fe3−δO4 thin films.

Changing Party Access to Elections (2003)
Book Chapter
Bowler, S., Carter, E., & Farrell, D. M. (2003). Changing Party Access to Elections. In Democracy Transformed? Expanding Political Opportunities in Advanced Industrial Democracies (81-112). Oxford University Press. https://doi.org/10.1093/0199264996.003.0005

This chapter examines whether it has become easier or more difficult for political parties to participate in elections. It does this by comparing the electoral systems and the wider electoral laws (including those governing ballot access, media acces... Read More about Changing Party Access to Elections.

Eclipsing binaries in open clusters (2003)
Conference Proceeding
Southworth, J., Maxted, P., & Smalley, B. (2003). Eclipsing binaries in open clusters.

Accurate physical parameters have been determined for two early-type detached eclipsing binaries in the open cluster h Persei (NGC 869). Masses accurate to 1.5% are derived from high-resolution spectroscopy and radii accurate to 4--6% have been obtai... Read More about Eclipsing binaries in open clusters.

Broad spectrum element-specific X-ray imaging (2003)

Autologous chondrocyte implantation for cartilage repair: monitoring its success by magnetic resonance imaging and histology (2003)
Journal Article
(2003). Autologous chondrocyte implantation for cartilage repair: monitoring its success by magnetic resonance imaging and histology. Arthritis Research and Therapy, R60 -R73. https://doi.org/10.1186/ar613

Autologous chondrocyte implantation is being used increasingly for the treatment of cartilage defects. In spite of this, there has been a paucity of objective, standardised assessment of the outcome and quality of repair tissue formed. We have invest...

Induced V and reduced Co magnetic moments at the V/Co interface (2003)
Journal Article
Huttel, Y., van der Laan, G., Johal, T. K., Telling, N. D., & Bencok, P. Induced V and reduced Co magnetic moments at the V/Co interface. Physical Review B (Condensed Matter), 68(17), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevb.68.174405

Using x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) the vanadium and cobalt magnetic moments at the V/Co interface have been extracted for different V and Co thicknesses. We find a large magnetic moment induced on the V that is coupled antiferromagnetic t... Read More about Induced V and reduced Co magnetic moments at the V/Co interface.
