A general U-block model-based design procedure for nonlinear polynomial control systems (2015)
Journal Article

The proposition of U-model concept (in terms of providing concise and applicable solutions for complex problems) and a corresponding basic U-control design algorithm was originated in the first author's PhD thesis. The term of U-model appeared (not r... Read More about A general U-block model-based design procedure for nonlinear polynomial control systems.

Phase shift of the current under a single-phase short-circuit in the stator winding of a turbogenerator with double winding per phase (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. An equivalent model of a faulty turbogenerator under a single-phase short-circuit in the stator winding is presented. The model is based on modified voltage–current equations for the positive-sequence compon...

Reconfigurable computer architectures for dynamically adaptable avionics systems (2015)
Journal Article

© 1986-2012 IEEE. Computing and processing capabilities from reconfgurable computer architectures (RCAs) can provide high-integrity avionics systems with outstanding effciency and effectiveness, as they do in other domains. However, they are still un... Read More about Reconfigurable computer architectures for dynamically adaptable avionics systems.

Journal Article

© 2015 Brazilian Operations Research Society. Lot sizing and scheduling by mixed integer programming has been a hot research topic inthe last 20 years. Researchers have been trying to develop stronger formulations, as well as to incorporatereal-world... Read More about Industrial insights into lot sizing and schedulingmodeling.

Experimental study of characteristics of bimetallic Pt-Fe nano-particle fuel cell electrocatalyst (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015 Elsevier Ltd. The characteristics of 1.5wt% Platinum (Pt) loading on Fe incorporated Y zeolite (Pt-Fe/Y zeolite) nano-electrocatalysts have been experimentally studied by the extended X-ray adsorption fine structure (EXAFS) and cyclic voltamme...

The safety of general anaesthesia in paediatric patients undergoing the application of Biobrane® for small scalds (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015 Elsevier Ltd and ISBI. All rights reserved. Background Each year more than 5000 children present to English and Welsh hospitals for the management of scalds; 60% of these are small scalds of less than 10% body surface area. There are no agreed... Read More about The safety of general anaesthesia in paediatric patients undergoing the application of Biobrane® for small scalds.

Model selection of the effect of binary exposures over the life course (Epidemiology (2015) 26 (719-726)) (2015)
Journal Article

Epidemiologists are often interested in examining the effect on a later-life outcome of an exposure measured repeatedly over the life course. When different hypotheses for this effect are proposed by competing theories, it is important to identify th...

Energy-harvesting mechanisms for UAV flight by dynamic soaring (2015)
Journal Article

Dynamic Soaring is a flying technique which extracts energy from an environment where wind gradients form, with the potential to increase the endurance of small unmanned vehicles. The feasibility to use dynamic soaring flight is questioned here; it r... Read More about Energy-harvesting mechanisms for UAV flight by dynamic soaring.

Evaluation of the swirl characteristics of a tidal stream turbine wake (2015)
Journal Article

© 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd. Tidal stream turbines (TSTs) produce a rotating downstream wake. This paper describes the characteristics of the swirl flow in the wake of a TST with a view of comparing these against classical swirl the...

Analysis of the damage mechanisms in mixed-mode delamination of laminated composites using acoustic emission data clustering (2015)
Journal Article

© The Author(s) 2015. In this study, acoustic emission (AE) technique is used to investigate different time-to-failure mechanisms of delamination in glass/epoxy composite laminates. Woven and unidirectional layups were subjected to the double cantile...
