A holistic evaluation of the impact of UK renewable strategy on emissions from compression ignition engines (2020)
Journal Article

Reduction in fossil fuels, contributing to greenhouse gases, and improvement of air quality from vehicle emissions is of growing concern worldwide. This has led to the introduction of several binding and non-binding agreements, such as the Renewable...

User-centred design and evaluation of a tele-operated echocardiography robot (2020)
Journal Article

We present the collected findings of a user-centred approach for developing a tele-operated robot for remote echocardiography examinations. During the three-year development of the robot, we involved users in all development stages of the robot, to i...

Demographic trends in the incidence of young-onset colorectal cancer: A population-based study (2020)
Journal Article

Background: Evidence is emerging that the incidence of colorectal cancer is increasing in young adults, but the descriptive epidemiology required to better understand these trends is currently lacking.

Methods: A population-based cohort study was... Read More about Demographic trends in the incidence of young-onset colorectal cancer: A population-based study.

Resilience and limitations of MFC anodic community when exposed to antibacterial agents (2020)
Journal Article

This study evaluates the fate of certain bactericidal agents introduced into microbial fuel cell (MFC) cascades and the response of the microbial community. We tested the response of functioning urine fed MFC cascades using two very different bacteri...

Urine in bioelectrochemical systems: An overall review (2020)
Journal Article

In recent years, human urine has been successfully used as an electrolyte and organic substrate in bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) mainly due of its unique properties. Urine contains organic compounds that can be utilised as a fuel for energy recov... Read More about Urine in bioelectrochemical systems: An overall review.

Reinforcement learning control of a flexible two-link manipulator: an experimental investigation (2020)
Journal Article

This article discusses the control design and experiment validation of a flexible two-link manipulator (FTLM) system represented by ordinary differential equations (ODEs). A reinforcement learning (RL) control strategy is developed that is based on a... Read More about Reinforcement learning control of a flexible two-link manipulator: an experimental investigation.

Mixed-integer quadratic constrained programming versus quadratic programming methods for distribution network reconfiguration (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper will examine the solution of the minimum loss reconfiguration problem of distribution networks that determine the optimal switches, by means of a mixed-integer quadratically-constrained programming (MIQCP) model The proposed MIQCP model is...

Information entropy-based intention prediction of aerial targets under uncertain and incomplete information (2020)
Journal Article

© 2020 by authors. To improve the effectiveness of air combat decision-making systems, target intention has been extensively studied. In general, aerial target intention is composed of attack, surveillance, penetration, feint, defense, reconnaissance...

An Investigation of a Morphing Flapped Wing (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This study investigated the design, development, and validation of an alternative method to achieve morphing in wings through the implementation of a sliding mechanism concept. Performance was tested at a specific Reynolds number (Re = 0.62 × 106). M... Read More about An Investigation of a Morphing Flapped Wing.
