An effective two-stage stochastic multi-trip location-transportation model with social concerns in relief supply chains (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 Elsevier B.V. The distribution of emergency aid from warehouses to relief centers to satisfy the needs of the victims in the aftermath of a disaster is a complex problem because it requires a rapid response to human suffering when resources ar...

Towards zero emission engines through the adoption of combustion lead engine design realised through a split cycle topology (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Although electrification is expected to dominate city transportation, chemically fuelled propulsion systems will remain the technology of choice for intercity freight transportation. This is due to the high journey energy requirements that cannot be...

Real-time electromagnetic tracking of orthopaedic pins for robot-assisted fracture surgery (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Tracking devices are an essential component in image guided surgery particularly when precise treatment or implant positioning are required. In this paper we explore the use of an electromagnetic tracking device (Polaris Aurora, NDI Inc.) as an alter...

Feasibility of Virtual Environments to Develop Future Driving Cycles (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

© 2018 SAE International. All Rights Reserved. The current procedure for testing emissions from new vehicles, the World Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP), was introduced in September 2017. The WLTP was developed by collecting over 765,00... Read More about Feasibility of Virtual Environments to Develop Future Driving Cycles.

Modeling dynamic frequency control with power reserve limitations (2018)
Journal Article

The frequency variation of a power system depends on the relationship between power generation and consumption. Increase in loads, losses or inclusion of renewable energies will lead to inaccurate controllability of the network frequency, which is th...

Improved water pumping station supply systems (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The electrical grid experiences high demand during peak energy times (Triads) and so financial penalty charges are applied to discourage large industrial consumers. Onsite power generation through employment of gas engines mitigated during ‘Triad’ pe... Read More about Improved water pumping station supply systems.

Bearing and bearing-bypass of pseudo-ductile thin-ply carbon/ glass hybrids (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The aim of this work was to investigate the bearing and bearing-bypass behaviour of thin ply pseudo-ductile carbon/glass hybrid laminates in tension. Therefore, a series of tests were performed based on ASTM D7248/D7248M–12 on a Quasi Isotropic (QI)... Read More about Bearing and bearing-bypass of pseudo-ductile thin-ply carbon/ glass hybrids.

Compact tension test behaviour of Pseudo-ductile thin-ply carbon/ glass hybrids (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The aim of this work was to investigate the notched behaviour of thin ply pseudo-ductile carbon/glass hybrid laminates with in-plane Over-height Compact Tension (OCT) specimens. Therefore, a series of tests were performed on two different thin-ply ca... Read More about Compact tension test behaviour of Pseudo-ductile thin-ply carbon/ glass hybrids.

An outlier in an independent samples design (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

There is a flaw with some of the most commonly performed statistical tests. A paradox of the one sample t-test is the contrariwise decrease in the p-value as the value of an outlier increases in the direction of the overall effect. Demonstration of t...

Anode surface modification with activated carbon for improved power generation in urine fed Microbial Fuel Cells (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) utilise organic feedstocks such as urine as fuel for direct electricity production, by employing anode respiring microbes that convert organic matter into electrons while treating waste. One possible approach to bring this... Read More about Anode surface modification with activated carbon for improved power generation in urine fed Microbial Fuel Cells.
