Numerical investigation of the influence of acceleration and deceleration on the aerodynamic characteristics of an oscillating wing aerofoil operating at transonic and hypersonic speeds
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The aerodynamic characteristics of a hypersonic aircraft are strongly influenced by the accelerating and decelerating motions of the body. This impact can be more complicated when the oscillatory motion of the body in a complex non-linear mode is inv...

Digital commons and architecture's self-image
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The research frames an emerging visual culture of display and observation that relies on the staging of architecture and the city not ‘as’ but ‘for’ the image. This does not concern strictly the building as visual object (Jencks 2006; Brigden 2019),... Read More about Digital commons and architecture's self-image.

Solar street art for a participatory energy transition
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The need to reduce global carbon emissions drives the renewable energy transition which can deeply transform cities. Façade retrofit plays an important role in improving the energy performance of the existing building stock. In renovation projects, t...

They will be heard: Representing and re-presenting voices of marginalised and racialised women through film
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Set within the context of populism, patriarchy and the debilitating legacy of colonialism, The Art of Oppression follows three artists as they each rise to the challenge of creating a new work for the film. The women, award-winning artists, are as di... Read More about They will be heard: Representing and re-presenting voices of marginalised and racialised women through film.

Visualising the muted effects of dissenting women's voices
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The environmental crisis, inequality, anti-trans discrimination and racism are some of the most pressing issues of our times. Can artists credibly claim engage with pressing issues? When does art become a form of activism? Why might we need arts ac... Read More about Visualising the muted effects of dissenting women's voices.

And some of us are silenced
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In Mangrove the first of the Small Axe films, bio-chemist student Althea says “We need to challenge the system… We mustn’t be victims but protagonists of our stories and what better way of representing ourselves but self-representing ourselves.” A bo... Read More about And some of us are silenced.

Filming the plurality of the Black British experience across two generations
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The paper analyses two generations’ experiences of being Black in Britain comparing the social and political contexts that determined their life chances. Both generations experienced early adulthood with a Conservative government in power, an unstabl... Read More about Filming the plurality of the Black British experience across two generations.

Exploring materiality: Advancing tectonic understanding through large-scale reproduction in two and three dimensions
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The first year of architectural education marks a period of foundational exploration, where students encounter a multitude of firsts and advance quickly. It marks their first exposure to design briefs and concepts, diagramming techniques, and the app...

The presence of people and over-crowding in urban greenspaces: Examining the impacts on social connectedness and restoration
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Urban greenspaces can provide multiple benefits including stress restoration, facilitating social cohesion, and improving mood. Most research looking at the effects of urban greenspaces often focus on spaces free from people. This is a problem for ge...
