Transport and urban housing growth – Unfinished business for Labour (2019)
Report
Melia, S. (2019). Transport and urban housing growth – Unfinished business for Labour

This discussion paper has been written following an open invitation from Prof. Phil Goodwin for contributions to the Shadow Transport Minister’s work towards Labour’s manifesto. It draws on research by the author and others into the relationship bet... Read More about Transport and urban housing growth – Unfinished business for Labour.

A comparison of graphene oxide, reduced graphene oxide and pure graphene: early age properties of cement composites (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Qureshi, T., & Panesar, D. (2019). A comparison of graphene oxide, reduced graphene oxide and pure graphene: early age properties of cement composites. In Proceedings of the International Conference on Sustainable Materials, Systems and Structures (SMSS2019) New Generation of Construction Materials (342-349)

This study compares the hydration, mechanical and transport properties of cement based composites containing graphene oxide (GO), reduced graphene oxide (rGO), and pure graphene (G). The only mix design variable other than the type of graphene materi...

Gravimetry-based water storage shifting over the China-India border area controlled by regional climate variability (2019)
Journal Article
Chun, K. P., He, Q., Fok, H. S., Ghosh, S., Yetemen, O., Chen, Q., & Mijic, A. (2020). Gravimetry-based water storage shifting over the China-India border area controlled by regional climate variability. Science of the Total Environment, 714, Article 136360. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.136360

The regional water storage shifting causes nonstationary spatial distribution of droughts and flooding, leading to water management challenges, environmental degradation and economic losses. The regional water storage shifting is becoming evident due... Read More about Gravimetry-based water storage shifting over the China-India border area controlled by regional climate variability.

Laboratory simulations of fluid-induced seismicity, hydraulic fracture, and fluid flow (2019)
Journal Article
Benson, P. M., Austria, D. C., Gehne, S., Butcher, E., Harnett, C. E., Fazio, M., …Tomas, R. (2020). Laboratory simulations of fluid-induced seismicity, hydraulic fracture, and fluid flow. Geomechanics for Energy and the Environment, 24, Article 100169. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gete.2019.100169

Fluid-induced seismicity has been observed and recorded for decades. Seismic energy necessarily requires a source, which is frequently related to rock fracture either in compression or tension. In both cases, such fracture may be promoted by crustal... Read More about Laboratory simulations of fluid-induced seismicity, hydraulic fracture, and fluid flow.

A spectral pedestrian-based approach for modal identification (2019)
Journal Article
Jesus, A., Živanović, S., & Alani, A. (2020). A spectral pedestrian-based approach for modal identification. Journal of Sound and Vibration, 470, Article 115157. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsv.2019.115157

The dynamic behaviour of footbridges is characterised by modal properties such as natural frequencies, mode shapes, damping ratios and modal masses. Their estimation via modal tests often requires expensive or difficult-to-operate equipment (e.g. sha... Read More about A spectral pedestrian-based approach for modal identification.

Re-establishment of fish passage for conserving threatened migratory species of West-Indian Himalayas (2019)
Journal Article
Raut, S., Gupta, N., Nautiyal, P., & Everard, M. (2020). Re-establishment of fish passage for conserving threatened migratory species of West-Indian Himalayas. River Research and Applications, 36(2), 314-317. https://doi.org/10.1002/rra.3577

Fish passes are structures (natural or manmade) bypassing barriers (e.g., dams), enabling satisfactory movement of migratory fish species. Reestablishment of fish passage, including facilitating overcoming barriers presented by impoundments or restor...
