A bi-dimensional empirical mode decomposition based watermarking scheme (2014)
Journal Article
Biad, S., Bouden, T., Nibouche, M., & Elbasi, E. (2015). A bi-dimensional empirical mode decomposition based watermarking scheme. International Arab Journal of Information Technology, 12(1), 24-31

An invisible robust, non blind watermarking scheme for digital images is presented. The proposed algorithm combines the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and the Bi-dimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition (BEMD). Unlike previous works where the wat...

Paper type classification based on a new 3D surface texture measure (2014)
Journal Article
Malekmohamadi, H., Emrith, K., Pollard, S., Adams, G., Smith, M., & Simske, S. (2014). Paper type classification based on a new 3D surface texture measure. Electronics Letters, 50(8), 596-598. https://doi.org/10.1049/el.2013.2687

A novel three-dimensional (3D) surface texture measure (3DSTM) is presented based on the micro-geometry of paper surfaces to classify different paper substrates. This is useful to automatically determine whether a document is printed on the correct p... Read More about Paper type classification based on a new 3D surface texture measure.

Global buckling of composite plates containing rectangular delaminations using exact stiffness analysis and smearing method (2014)
Journal Article
Damghani, M., Kennedy, D., & Featherston, C. (2014). Global buckling of composite plates containing rectangular delaminations using exact stiffness analysis and smearing method. Computers and Structures, 134, 32-47. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compstruc.2013.12.005

The global buckling of a composite plate with a single rectangular delamination is studied using a smearing method and employing exact stiffness analysis and the Wittrick-Williams algorithm. Computational efficiency is achieved by avoiding discretisa...

Singing in unison: The neuroscience, art and therapy of music (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Fogg-Rogers, L. A. (2014, March). Singing in unison: The neuroscience, art and therapy of music. Presented at AHRC Science in Culture Ignite 2014, London, UK

Imagine a world where you can’t speak. It’s that tip of the tongue moment which frustrates us all, but is an everyday reality for people with aphasia. This language disorder results from brain damage like stroke, when the brain area responsible for o... Read More about Singing in unison: The neuroscience, art and therapy of music.

Dynamic soaring mechanisms in the ocean boundary layer (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Bonnin, V., Benard, E., Toomer, C., & Moschetta, J. (2014, March). Dynamic soaring mechanisms in the ocean boundary layer. Paper presented at 3AF, 49th International Symposium of Applied Aerodynamics, Lille, France

Dynamic Soaring is a flying technique which extracts energy from an environment where wind gradients form, such as the air-sea interface above oceans that sees such gradients forming through multiple and combined phenomena. Models of wind-wave intera... Read More about Dynamic soaring mechanisms in the ocean boundary layer.

A method of ‘speed coefficients’ for biochemical model reduction applied to the NF-κB system (2014)
Journal Article
West, S., Bridge, L. J., White, M. R. H., Paszek, P., & Biktashev, V. N. (2015). A method of ‘speed coefficients’ for biochemical model reduction applied to the NF-κB system. Journal of Mathematical Biology, 70(3), 591-620. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00285-014-0775-x

© 2014, The Author(s). The relationship between components of biochemical network and the resulting dynamics of the overall system is a key focus of computational biology. However, as these networks and resulting mathematical models are inherently co... Read More about A method of ‘speed coefficients’ for biochemical model reduction applied to the NF-κB system.

A model for creep and creep damage in the γ-titanium aluminide Ti-45Al-2Mn-2Nb (2014)
Journal Article
Harrison, W., Abdallah, Z., & Whittaker, M. (2014). A model for creep and creep damage in the γ-titanium aluminide Ti-45Al-2Mn-2Nb. Materials, 7(3), 2194-2209. https://doi.org/10.3390/ma7032194

Gamma titanium aluminides (γ-TiAl) display significantly improved high temperature mechanical properties over conventional titanium alloys. Due to their low densities, these alloys are increasingly becoming strong candidates to replace nickel-base su...
