Parent-reported socioemotional and cognitive development in children with a cleft lip and/or palate at 18 months: Findings from a UK birth cohort (2020)
Journal Article

Background: One of the most common congenital conditions in the world, cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P) has been shown to potentially impact long-term physical and developmental outcomes in affected children. However, little is known about the factors...

A blow-up dichotomy for semilinear fractional heat equations (2020)
Journal Article

We derive a blow-up dichotomy for positive solutions of fractional semilinear heat equations on the whole space. That is, within a certain class of convex source terms, we establish a necessary and sufficient condition on the source for all positive...

Laser powder bed fusion of WC-reinforced Hastelloy-X composite: Microstructure and mechanical properties (2020)
Journal Article

Nickel-based superalloys such as Hastelloy X (HX) are widely used in gas turbine engines for their exceptional oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength. The addition of ceramic reinforcement further enhances these superalloys’ mechanical pe...

Effects of an unexpected and expected event on older adults’ autonomic arousal and eye fixations during autonomous driving (2020)
Journal Article

© Copyright © 2020 Stephenson, Eimontaite, Caleb-Solly, Morgan, Khatun, Davis and Alford. Driving cessation for some older adults can exacerbate physical, cognitive, and mental health challenges due to loss of independence and social isolation. Fully...

Robust neurooptimal control for a robot via adaptive dynamic programming (2020)
Journal Article

We aim at the optimization of the tracking control of a robot to improve the robustness, under the effect of unknown nonlinear perturbations. First, an auxiliary system is introduced, and optimal control of the auxiliary system can be seen as an appr...

Analysis on characteristics of self compacting concrete using recycled aggregate: A review (2020)
Journal Article

The inclusion of SCC or self-consolidating concrete is an innovative way to capitalize onthe demolished coarse aggregates in concrete. This can be obtained by crushing of old concretespecimens, beams, slabs, etc. This methodology was first introduced...

Citizen engagement and behaviour modelling for clean air and net zero carbon (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The environmental and health impacts of climate change and air pollution are being felt around the world and yet cohesive and collaborative policymaking to mitigate emissions are moving too slowly. Behaviour change campaigns instead focus on individu... Read More about Citizen engagement and behaviour modelling for clean air and net zero carbon.

Factors associated with advanced colorectal cancer differ between young and older adults in England: A population-based cohort study (2020)
Journal Article

Aim: Advanced stage presentation of colorectal cancer is associated with poorer survival outcomes, particularly among young adults. This study aimed to determine whether demographic risk factors for advanced stage presentation differed between young...

Design of a virtual testing platform for assessing prosthetic knee joints (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper presents a mathematical and dynamic model for a testing platform designed to assess the performances of a wide range of artificial knee joints (prosthetic and robotic devices) based on the analysis of motion of lower limbs. Fundamental equ... Read More about Design of a virtual testing platform for assessing prosthetic knee joints.

Using FFF and topology optimisation to increase crushing strength in equestrian helmets (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

International standards ensure that equestrian helmets achieve high performance. Recently, one such standard (PAS 015) was revised to include a lateral deformation requirement, ensuring helmets can withstand the potential crushing forces associated w...
