Surface flow modification of aerofoils for automotive racing car applications (2020)
Journal Article

An aerofoil commonly used in aerospace engineering to produce lift is also employed in the motor sport industry to produce downforce for improving traction during cornering. This paper investigates aerofoil surface modification through 'golf ball dim... Read More about Surface flow modification of aerofoils for automotive racing car applications.

Genetic and phenotypic associations between root architecture, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi colonisation and low phosphate tolerance in strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) (2020)
Journal Article

Background: Phosphate is an essential plant macronutrient required to achieve maximum crop yield. Roots are able to uptake soil phosphate from the immediate root area, thus creating a nutrient depletion zone. Many plants are able to exploit phosphate...

A method of motion recognition based on electromyographic signals (2020)
Journal Article

In a robot-assisted surgery, a skillful surgeon can perform the operation excellently through flexible wrist motions and rich experience. However, there are little researches about the relationship between the wrist motion and electromyography (EMG)... Read More about A method of motion recognition based on electromyographic signals.

Exploring adaptive behavior of non-linear hexagonal frameworks (2020)
Journal Article

© Copyright © 2020 O'Donnell, Towes, Groh and Chenchiah. Non-linear structural responses offer a rich design space that can be integrated into the development of novel (meta)-materials to enable transformative capabilities. By exploiting robust, repe...

Manometry performed at indwelling pleural catheter insertion to predict unexpandable lung (2020)
Journal Article

Background: The finding of unexpandable lung (UL) at an early timepoint is of increasing importance in guiding treatment decisions in patients with malignant pleural effusion (MPE). Pleural manometry is the most common technique to delineate UL, howe... Read More about Manometry performed at indwelling pleural catheter insertion to predict unexpandable lung.
