Long-wave asymptotic theories: the connection between functionally graded waveguides and periodic media (2014)
Journal Article
Kaplunov. (2014). Long-wave asymptotic theories: the connection between functionally graded waveguides and periodic media. Wave Motion, 581 - 588. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wavemoti.2013.09.007

This article explores the deep connections that exist between the mathematical representations of dynamic phenomena in functionally graded waveguides and those in periodic media. These connections are at their most obvious for low-frequency and long-... Read More about Long-wave asymptotic theories: the connection between functionally graded waveguides and periodic media.

Toward Unified Security and Privacy Protection for Smart Meter Networks (2014)
Journal Article
Fan. (2014). Toward Unified Security and Privacy Protection for Smart Meter Networks. IEEE Systems Journal, 641 - 654. https://doi.org/10.1109/JSYST.2013.2260940

The management of security and privacy protection mechanisms is one fundamental issue of future smart grid and metering networks. Designing effective and economic measures is a non-trivial task due to a) the large number of system requirements and b)...

Tuning receiver characteristics in bacterial quorum communication: An evolutionary approach using standard virtual biological parts (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hallinan, J. S., Gilfellon, O., Misirli, G., & Wipat, A. (2014, May). Tuning receiver characteristics in bacterial quorum communication: An evolutionary approach using standard virtual biological parts. Presented at 2014 IEEE Conference on Computational Intelligence in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (CIBCB), Honolulu, HI, USA

Populations of bacteria acting in collaboration can produce complex behaviors which are not achievable by individual cells. There has, consequently, been considerable interest in the engineering of bacterial populations. Here we describe an approach...

DESA: A Decentralized, Efficient and Selective Aggregation Scheme in AMI (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Mustafa, M., Zhang, N., Kalogridis, G., & Fan, Z. (2014, February). DESA: A Decentralized, Efficient and Selective Aggregation Scheme in AMI. Presented at ISGT 2014, Washington, DC

In this paper we propose a decentralized, efficient and selective aggregation (DESA) scheme for secure and privacy-preserving communication in AMI. Unlike existing aggregation schemes, DESA uses a multi-recipient system model that is more applicable... Read More about DESA: A Decentralized, Efficient and Selective Aggregation Scheme in AMI.

The perturbation of electromagnetic fields at distances that are large compared with the object's size (2014)
Journal Article
Ledger, P. D., & Lionheart, W. R. B. (2015). The perturbation of electromagnetic fields at distances that are large compared with the object's size. IMA Journal of Applied Mathematics, 80(3), 865-892. https://doi.org/10.1093/imamat/hxu009

We rigorously derive the leading-order terms in asymptotic expansions for the scattered electric and magnetic fields in the presence of a small object at distances that are large compared with its size. Our expansions hold for fixed wavenumber when t... Read More about The perturbation of electromagnetic fields at distances that are large compared with the object's size.

Mutation rate plasticity in rifampicin resistance depends on Escherichia coli cell-cell interactions (2014)
Journal Article
Channon, A. (2014). Mutation rate plasticity in rifampicin resistance depends on Escherichia coli cell-cell interactions. Nature communications, 3742 -?. https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms4742

Variation of mutation rate at a particular site in a particular genotype, in other words mutation rate plasticity (MRP), can be caused by stress or ageing. However, mutation rate control by other factors is less well characterized. Here we show that...

Stability of pear-shaped configurations bifurcated from a pressurized spherical balloon (2014)
Journal Article
Fu, Y., & Xie, Y. (2014). Stability of pear-shaped configurations bifurcated from a pressurized spherical balloon. Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, 33 - 44. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmps.2014.03.007

It is well-known that for most spherical rubber balloons the pressure versus volume curve associated with uniform inflation is N-shaped (the pressure increases rapidly to a maximum, falls to a minimum, and subsequently increases monotonically), and t...
