Maximum urethral closure pressure in women: Normative data and evaluation as a diagnostic test (2012)
Journal Article
Kapoor, D. S., Housami, F., Swithinbank, L., White, P., & Drake, M. (2012). Maximum urethral closure pressure in women: Normative data and evaluation as a diagnostic test. International Urogynecology Journal, 23(11), 1613-1618. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00192-012-1770-7

Introduction and hypothesis: Our goal was to identify correlates of maximum urethral closure pressure (MUCP) and MUCP as a diagnostic test for stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Methods: This study was a retrospective review of women with non-neurolo... Read More about Maximum urethral closure pressure in women: Normative data and evaluation as a diagnostic test.

Studies of gasoline direct-injection sprays at elevated ambient gas temperatures and pressures (2012)
Journal Article
Sapsford, S., Kay, P. J., Bowen, P. J., & Gold, M. (2012). Studies of gasoline direct-injection sprays at elevated ambient gas temperatures and pressures. Atomization and Sprays, 22(4), 305-331. https://doi.org/10.1615/AtomizSpr.2012005411

This paper studies the influence of ambient conditions on full flow-field, temporally resolved fuel spray characteristics. The gasoline sprays from a direct-injection (DI) injector are examined for varying ambient air densities, air temperature, and...

Towards tactile sensing applied to underwater autonomous vehicles for near shore survey and de-mining (2012)
Journal Article
Rooney, T., Pipe, A. G., Dogramadzi, S., & Pearson, M. (2012). Towards tactile sensing applied to underwater autonomous vehicles for near shore survey and de-mining. Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, 7429, 463-464. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-32527-4_60

Artificial tactile whisker sensors demonstrate an approach to localisation that is robust to harsh environmental disturbances, endowing autonomous systems with the ability to operate effectively in confined, noisy and visually occluded spaces, such a...

Flow topology of symmetric crossing shock wave boundary layer interactions (2012)
Book Chapter
Salin, A., Yao, Y., Lo, S. H., & Zheltovodov, A. A. (2012). Flow topology of symmetric crossing shock wave boundary layer interactions. In K. Kontis (Ed.), 28th International Symposium on Shock Waves (425-431). UK: Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-25685-1_64

Three-dimensional crossing-shock-wave and turbulent boundary-layer interactions can generate intense wall heat flux rates, high pressure levels, and large-scale flow separations on high-speed vehicle surfaces. To reproduce such complex flow physics,... Read More about Flow topology of symmetric crossing shock wave boundary layer interactions.

Convergence across Spanish provinces: Cross-section and pairwise evidence (2012)
Journal Article
Webber, D. J., White, P., Minondo, A., & Allen, D. O. (2012). Convergence across Spanish provinces: Cross-section and pairwise evidence. Empirical Economics Letters, 11(6), 611-622

Distribution free statistics are employed to investigate biennial income per capita convergence across 52 Spanish provinces over the period 1955-1997. Based upon ideas of concordance and discordance that capture convergence and divergence properties,... Read More about Convergence across Spanish provinces: Cross-section and pairwise evidence.

Emergent swarm morphology control of wireless networked mobile robots (2012)
Book Chapter
Winfield, A. F., & Nembrini, J. (2012). Emergent swarm morphology control of wireless networked mobile robots. In R. Doursat, H. Sayama, & O. Michel (Eds.), Morphogenetic Engineering (239-271). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-33902-8_10

We describe a new class of decentralised control algorithms that link local wireless connectivity to low-level robot motion control in order to maintain both swarm aggregation and connectivity, which we term “coherence”, in unbounded space. We invest... Read More about Emergent swarm morphology control of wireless networked mobile robots.

Shock induced separating flows in scramjet intakes (2012)
Journal Article
Yao, Y., Zheng, Y., & Rincon, D. (2012). Shock induced separating flows in scramjet intakes. International Journal of Modern Physics: Conference Series, 19(73), https://doi.org/10.1142/S2010194512008604

Shock induced separating flows in a scramjet intake has been studied by using a computational fluid dynamics approach. A configuration of scramjet intake geometry consisting of two exterior compression ramps, followed by a subsequent inlet and interi...
