Much of the past work on fault diagnosis did not pay enough attention to model construction and its important role in aiding problem solving. It was generally accepted that a model was available or was assumed to be present in a certain format before... Read More about Automatic modelling for diagnosis..

A hybrid expert system assisting decision making for distribution system load forecasting. (1994)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
MORSI, D.M., ABBASY, N.H. and ABUL ELLA, M.S. 1994. A hybrid expert system assisting decision making for distribution system load forecasting.

Malignant disease is frequently accompanied by weight loss and malnutrition, which are associated with an increase in patient mortality and morbidity.

Regulation of stomach emptying in pigs. (1987)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
GREGORY, P.C., MCFADYEN, M. and RAYNER, D.V. 1987. Regulation of stomach emptying in pigs. Presented at the 1987 Cambridge meeting of the Physiological Society, 18-19 September 1987, Cambridge, UK.

This presentation reports on three experiments into the stomach emptying of pigs during feeding. Each experiment measured the emptying of both solids and liquids from the stomach using a gastric evacuation technique. Two of the experiments also invol...

A study of the time course of fructose-2, 6-bisphosphate production in a septic mouse model. (1986)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
HEPBURN, D., BROOM, J. and SMITH, D.J. 1986. A study of the time course of fructose-2, 6-bisphosphate production in a septic mouse model. Proceedings of the Nutrition Society [online], 45(1), page 33A. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1079/PNS19860044

Where sepsis occurs in the post-surgical period, mortality rates tend to be high. In sepsis, metabolism is grossly disrupted with glucose becoming the preferred fuel for energy provision even where ketogenesis has been promoted.
