Miniaturized supercapacitors: key materials and structures towards autonomous and sustainable devices and systems (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 The Authors Supercapacitors (SCs) are playing a key role for the development of self-powered and self-sustaining integrated systems for different fields ranging from remote sensing, robotics and medical devices. SC miniaturization and integrat... Read More about Miniaturized supercapacitors: key materials and structures towards autonomous and sustainable devices and systems.

Self sustainable cathodes for microbial fuel cells (2016)
Thesis

The ultimate goal of this thesis was to investigate and produce an MFC with self-sustainable cathode so it could be implemented in real world applications. Using methods previously employed [polarisation curve experiments, power output measurements,... Read More about Self sustainable cathodes for microbial fuel cells.

Numerical investigation of wavy-annular airwater two-pase flow in a small horizontal pipe (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This study has been carried out using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to investigate the annular
two phase flow behavior that flow pattern has some desirable features for renewable energy system
application. The circumferential distribution of t... Read More about Numerical investigation of wavy-annular airwater two-pase flow in a small horizontal pipe.

The dawn of biodegradable robots (2016)
Journal Article

Robotics is a field that is not normally associated with green technology or sustainability. Robots are generally constructed using materials that are non-biodegradable, toxic and expensive. These factors can limit the potential uses that an artifici... Read More about The dawn of biodegradable robots.

An iTRAQ characterisation of the role of TolC during electron transfer from Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim Anodophilic bacteria have the ability to generate electricity in microbial fuel cells (MFCs) by extracellular electron transfer to the anode. We investigated the anode-specific responses of Shewanel... Read More about An iTRAQ characterisation of the role of TolC during electron transfer from Shewanella oneidensis MR-1.

Effects of Iron-Rich Intermetallics and Grain Structure on Semisolid Tensile Properties of Al-Cu 206 Cast Alloys near Solidus Temperature (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016, The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society and ASM International. The effects of iron-rich intermetallics and grain size on the semisolid tensile properties of Al-Cu 206 cast alloys near the solidus were evaluated in relation to the mush micr...

A novel multi-inputs-single-output DC transformer topology (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In this paper a novel Multi- Input-Single-Output (MISO) Boost Converter topology for renewable energy systems is proposed and presented. This pro- posed topology will be used to obtain different output voltage levels from several power sources, s... Read More about A novel multi-inputs-single-output DC transformer topology.
