The validation and verification of CFD models of heat transfer and airflow within CPV modules (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Simulation models are used for predicting a photovoltaic concentrator's performance. It is desirable to analyse theoretically any given system as extensively as possible before embarking on expensive construction. Calculation of the flow fields both...

A longer-range strategy for car-bus interchange: The 'link-and-ride' concept (2000)
Journal Article

It is widely acknowledged that there can be disadvantages due to bus-based park and ride schemes constructed at the edge of the urban area as well as benefits. The present paper considers how these disbenefits might be reduced. In the main it is argu... Read More about A longer-range strategy for car-bus interchange: The 'link-and-ride' concept.

The environmental and socio-economic impacts of changing agri-environment payments in Queens Sedgemoor, Somerset Levels
Report

The moor appears to be nitrate limited, but there is evidence that may suggest there is significant nitrate input in parts of the moor. It would be instructive to understand the flux of nitrates as water move through the ditch system in more detail....
