The potential for the use of waste products from a variety of sectors in water treatment processes.
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2016-07-21)This review examines the utilisation of waste products from three sectors (industry, agriculture, and construction and demolition) in filters for the removal of contaminants from water. Sand is commonly used in drinking ... -
Potential-based and non-potential-based cohesive zone formulations under mixed-mode separation and over-closure. Part I: Theoretical Analysis
(2013)This paper presents a thorough analysis of potential-based and non-potential-based cohesive zone models (CZMs) under conditions of mixed-mode separation and mixed-mode over-closure. Problems are identified with the well ... -
Potential-based and non-potential-based cohesive zone formulations under mixed-mode separation and over-closure. Part II: Finite element applications
(2013)This paper, the second of two parts, presents three novel finite element case studies to demonstrate the importance of normal-tangential coupling in cohesive zone models (CZMs) for the prediction of mixed-mode interface ... -
A practical approach for the consideration of single pile and pile group installation effects in clay: numerical modelling
(IOS Press, 2015)In this paper, a practical approach for the consideration of single pile and pile group installation effects in clay is presented using some novel procedures implemented in the finite element (FE) software package PLAXIS ... -
Practical aspects of video data transfer to network storage using 802.11 WLAN technology for low-end consumer digital cameras
(IEEE, 2003)The latest models of low-end consumer digital cameras have begun to support A/V streaming directly to memory card. This greatly enhances the utility of the camera to an end user. In this paper we investigate techniques ... -
A practical challenge for iris authentication on handheld imaging devices
(IEEE, 2015)Following on the introduction of fingerprint biometrics, iris authentication for handheld imaging devices has become a hot research topic. However widespread adoption of this technology faces a significant challenge as ... -
Pre-culture of mesenchymal stem cells within RGD-modified hyaluronic acid hydrogel improves their resilience to ischaemic conditions
(Elsevier, 2020-03-04)The incorporation of the RGD peptide (arginine-glycine-aspartate) into biomaterials has been proposed to promote cell adhesion to the matrix, which can influence and control cell behaviour and function. While many studies ... -
A precipitate evolution-based continuum damage mechanics model of creep behaviour in welded 9Cr steel at high temperature
(SAGE Publications, 2018-04-04)A multiaxial, physically based, continuum damage mechanics methodology for creep of welded 9Cr steels is presented, incorporating a multiple precipitate-type state variable, which simulates the effects of strain- and ... -
Predicting the propagation of concentration and saturation fronts in fixed-bed filters
(IWA Publishing, 2017-07-05)The phenomenon of adsorption is widely exploited across a range of industries to remove contaminants from gases and liquids. Much recent research has focused on identifying low-cost adsorbents which have the potential to ... -
Predicting the sensing radius of a coaxial probe based on the probe dimensions
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020-05-19)The coaxial probe technique is used to acquire the dielectric properties of biological tissues in the microwave frequency range. To dielectrically characterize heterogeneous samples, the sensing radius of the probe must ... -
