Using laminate hybridisation (CFRP-GFRP) and shaped CFRP plies to increase plate post-buckling strain to failure under shear loading (2021)
Journal Article
Damghani, M., Wallis, C., Bakunowicz, J., & Murphy, A. (2021). Using laminate hybridisation (CFRP-GFRP) and shaped CFRP plies to increase plate post-buckling strain to failure under shear loading. Thin-Walled Structures, 162, Article 107543. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tws.2021.107543

Previous works have established the response and failure behaviour of hybrid (CFRP-GFRP) laminates when subjected to a wide range of destabilising loads. However, to date no works have quantified the influence of selective laminate shapes and hybridi...

Detection of aircraft touchdown using longitudinal acceleration and continuous wavelet transformation (2020)
Journal Article
Bakunowicz, J., & Rzucidło, P. (2020). Detection of aircraft touchdown using longitudinal acceleration and continuous wavelet transformation. Sensors, 20(24), 1-25. https://doi.org/10.3390/s20247231

The paper presents a methodology enabling the detection of aircraft touchdowns based on data obtained from accelerometers attached to the structural parts of the airframe in the cockpit or passenger compartment. Precise determination of the moment an... Read More about Detection of aircraft touchdown using longitudinal acceleration and continuous wavelet transformation.
