Optimisation of the filament winding approach using a newly developed in-house uncertainty model (2020)
Journal Article

The device under investigation in this paper consists of a float used to capture tidal energy, which is tethered by multiple flexible cables to a large barge-like reactor. The proposed float is made of a continuously wound glass-reinforced composite... Read More about Optimisation of the filament winding approach using a newly developed in-house uncertainty model.

Vortex development for a 65 degree swept back delta wing with varying thickness and maximum thickness location (2020)
Thesis

Low signature, unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAV) are foreseen to play an important role in future military missions. Most UCAV concepts feature some sort of delta or lambda type of wing with high or moderately swept leading edge, where the fusel...

Exact solutions and equi-dosing regimen regions for multi-dose pharmacokinetics models with transit compartments (2020)
Journal Article

Compartmental models which yield linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) provide common tools for pharmacokinetics (PK) analysis, with exact solutions for drug levels or concentrations readily obtainable for low-dimensional compartment models....

Virtual characterization of nonlocal continuum damage model parameters using a high fidelity finite element model (2020)
Journal Article

A virtual finite element framework is presented to provide the transition from a high fidelity model to a more computationally efficient continuum model for simulating fibre-dominated damage behavior in composite laminates subjected to tensile loadin...

How many words make a sample? Determining the minimum number of word tokens needed in connected speech samples for child speech assessment (2020)
Journal Article

Connected speech (CS) is an important component of child speech assessment in both clinical practice and research. There is debate in the literature regarding what size sample of CS is required to facilitate reliable measures of speech output. The ai... Read More about How many words make a sample? Determining the minimum number of word tokens needed in connected speech samples for child speech assessment.

Optimal integration of renewable distributed generation using the whale optimization algorithm for techno-economic analysis (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

A new method for optimal integration of renewable energy sources based on photovoltaic solar panels and wind turbines in the distribution network is presented with the objective of reducing the Active Power Loss (APL) index, to improve the Total Volt...

Experimental and numerical study of auxetic sandwich panels on 160 grams of PE4 blast loading (2020)
Journal Article

Mines, specifically as Anti-Tank (AT) mines are a significant threat for defence vehicles. While approaches such as v-shaped hulls are currently used to deflect the blast products from such threats, such a solution is not always usable when hull stan...

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...

Digital heritage as a route towards social engagement (2020)
Book Chapter

The historic environment faces many challenges, one of which is a poor understanding of the positive role it can play in the maintenance, development, and regeneration of communities, their culture, and their economy. Aberdeenshire Council considers... Read More about Digital heritage as a route towards social engagement.

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...
