Journal Article
Reece, R., Elliott, L., Bray, I., & Bornioli, A. (2024). How properties of urban greenspaces shape well-being across age groups: A qualitative study. Wellbeing, Space and Society, 7, Article 100206. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wss.2024.100206

The prevalence of poor mental health among younger and older generations is rising. Urban greenspaces (UGS) can provide well-being benefits and are used by all ages, so it is important that these spaces provide benefits across the life course. So far...

Delivering citizen science online and hybrid: Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on recruitment and engagement (2024)
Journal Article
Sardo, A. M., & Laggan, S. (2024). Delivering citizen science online and hybrid: Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on recruitment and engagement. Research for All, 8(1), https://doi.org/10.14324/RFA.08.1.04

This small-scale study explores the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on running and delivering a large-scale, international participatory citizen science project. In doing so, it seeks to identify the challenges posed by the pandemic for the research...

An exploration of greenspace metric proximity and NDVI vs configurational accessibility from residential postcodes in the West of England (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fouad, Z., Sinnett, D., Bray, I., McClatchey, R., & Reece, R. (2024, June). An exploration of greenspace metric proximity and NDVI vs configurational accessibility from residential postcodes in the West of England. Presented at 14th International Space Syntax Symposium, Cyprus

Greenspaces are recognised as important features of an urban environment which are visited by residents for different purposes. This paper investigates the relationship between residents in the West of England and their surrounding greenspaces, by st...

An iterative numerical approach to evaluate the variable friction coefficient of steel AMS5643 using ring compression tests (2023)
Journal Article
Hatherell, J., Marmier, A., Dennis, G., Curry, W., Denis, G., & Matthews, J. (2024). An iterative numerical approach to evaluate the variable friction coefficient of steel AMS5643 using ring compression tests. Tribology Transactions, 67(1), 15-21. https://doi.org/10.1080/10402004.2023.2284347

The coefficient of friction is an important variable that must be defined to allow the accurate prediction of the forming geometry and stresses involved in metal forming processes. Literature reports have shown that the coefficient of friction does n...

Adaptive sliding mode attitude control of 2-degrees-of-freedom helicopter system with actuator saturation and disturbances (2023)
Journal Article
Li, R., Lei, C., Shi, B., Zhu, Q., & Yue, X. (online). Adaptive sliding mode attitude control of 2-degrees-of-freedom helicopter system with actuator saturation and disturbances. Journal of Vibration and Control, https://doi.org/10.1177/10775463231212530

The modelling uncertainties, external disturbance and actuator saturation issues will degrade the performance and even the safety of flight. To improve control performance, this study proposes an adaptive U-model based double sliding control (UDSMC)...

Exploring the potential for a FEA-based design of experiments to develop design tools for bulk-metal joining processes (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hatherell, J., Marmier, A., Dennis, G., Curry, W., & Matthews, J. (2023). Exploring the potential for a FEA-based design of experiments to develop design tools for bulk-metal joining processes. In Proceedings of the Design Society (1815-1824). https://doi.org/10.1017/pds.2023.182

Over the last 20 years, finite element analysis (FEA) has become a standard analysis tool for metal joining processes. When FEA tools are combined with design of experiments (DOE) methodologies, academic research has shown the potential for virtual D...
