The analysis of a two-phase zone with condensation in a porous medium (2003)
Journal Article
The one-dimensional steady-state heat and mass transfer in a two-phase zone of a water-saturated porous medium is studied. The system consists of a sand-water-vapour mixture in a tube that is heated from above and cooled from below. Under certain con...

Exploring the psychosocial concerns of outpatients with disfiguring conditions (2003)
Journal Article
Investigating the appearance-related concerns of people with hand injuries (2003)
Journal Article
An investigation of the appearance-related concerns of patients with disfiguring hand conditions was carried out in two out-patient clinics. A considerable proportion of the 122 respondents were experiencing psychosocial problems including anxiety, d...

Structure and Energetics of a Turbulent Trailing Edge Flow (2003)
Journal Article
Results from a direct numerical simulation (DNS) of turbulent flow over a rectangular trailing edge geometry are used to study energy transfers in detail. The numerical procedure employs a separate boundary layer simulation which is used to generate... Read More about Structure and Energetics of a Turbulent Trailing Edge Flow.
On the use of an enhanced transverse shear strain shell element for problems involving large rotations (2003)
Journal Article
This paper presents the extension of a previously developed formulation for shell elements in order to account for non-linear geometric effects, particularly in the presence of large rotations. To eliminate transverse shear locking, the developed she... Read More about On the use of an enhanced transverse shear strain shell element for problems involving large rotations.
The flow of a DAE near a singular equilibrium (2003)
Journal Article
We extend the differential-algebraic equation (DAE) taxonomy by assuming that the linearization of a DAE about a singular equilibrium has a particular index-2 Kronecker normal form. A Lyapunov-Schmidt procedure is used to reduce the DAE to a quasilin... Read More about The flow of a DAE near a singular equilibrium.
Transversality and separation of zeros in second order differential equations (2003)
Journal Article
Sufficient conditions on the non-linearity f are given which ensure that non-trivial solutions of second order differential equations of the form Lu = f(t, u) have a finite number of transverse zeros in a given finite time interval. We also obtain a... Read More about Transversality and separation of zeros in second order differential equations.
Simulation and modelling of turbulent trailing-edge flow (2002)
Journal Article
Computations of turbulent trailing-edge flow have been carried out at a Reynolds number of 1000 (based on the free-stream quantities and the trailing-edge thickness) using an unsteady 3D Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) code, in which two-equa...
