Hyperbolic-elliptic model for surface wave in a pre-stressed incompressible elastic half-space (2018)
Journal Article
Khajiyeva, L., Prikazchikov, D., & Prikazchikova, L. (2018). Hyperbolic-elliptic model for surface wave in a pre-stressed incompressible elastic half-space. Mechanics Research Communications, 92, 49-53. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mechrescom.2018.07.006

The paper aims at derivation of the asymptotic model for surface wave propagating in a pre-stressed incompressible elastic half-space, subject to prescribed surface loading. The approach relies on the slow-time perturbation procedure, extending the p... Read More about Hyperbolic-elliptic model for surface wave in a pre-stressed incompressible elastic half-space.

Reproducibility of Studies on Text Mining for Citation Screening in Systematic Reviews: Evaluation and Checklist (2018)
Journal Article
(2018). Reproducibility of Studies on Text Mining for Citation Screening in Systematic Reviews: Evaluation and Checklist. Journal of Biomedical Informatics, 1-13. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbi.2017.07.010

CONTEXT:
Independent validation of published scientific results through study replication is a pre-condition for accepting the validity of such results. In computation research, full replication is often unrealistic for independent results validatio...

Physical Model of a Chiral Flexural Waveguide (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Carta, G., Nieves, M., Jones, I., Movchan, N., & Movchan, A. (2018, August). Physical Model of a Chiral Flexural Waveguide. Presented at 2018 12th International Congress on Artificial Materials for Novel Wave Phenomena (Metamaterials), Espoo

We present a novel physical model of a gyrobeam, an active chiral structural element where flexural and rotational motions are coupled. In the literature, the gyrobeam is described as a mathematical object possessing a continuous distribution of stor... Read More about Physical Model of a Chiral Flexural Waveguide.

Asymptotic analysis of an anti-plane dynamic problem for a three-layered strongly inhomogeneous laminate (2018)
Journal Article
Prikazchikova, L., Ece Aydın, Y., Erbaş, B., & Kaplunov, J. (2018). Asymptotic analysis of an anti-plane dynamic problem for a three-layered strongly inhomogeneous laminate. Mathematics and Mechanics of Solids, 25(1), 3-16. https://doi.org/10.1177/1081286518790804

Anti-plane dynamic shear of a strongly inhomogeneous dynamic laminate with traction-free faces is
analysed. Two types of contrast are considered, including those for composite structures with stiff thick or thin outer layers. In both cases, the valu... Read More about Asymptotic analysis of an anti-plane dynamic problem for a three-layered strongly inhomogeneous laminate.

Interfacial waveforms in chiral lattices with gyroscopic spinners (2018)
Journal Article
Garau, M., Carta, G., Nieves, M., Jones, I., Movchan, N., & Movchan, A. (2018). Interfacial waveforms in chiral lattices with gyroscopic spinners. Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 474(2215), https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2018.0132

We demonstrate a new method of achieving topologically protected states in an elastic hexagonal system of trusses by attaching gyroscopic spinners, which bring chirality to the system. Dispersive features of this medium are investigated in detail, an... Read More about Interfacial waveforms in chiral lattices with gyroscopic spinners.

The Effect of Pose on the distribution of Edge Gradients in Omnidirectional Images (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Jarvis, D., & Kyriacou, T. (2018, July). The Effect of Pose on the distribution of Edge Gradients in Omnidirectional Images. Presented at 19th Annual Conference, TAROS 2018, Bristol, UK

Images from omnidirectional cameras are used frequently in applications involving artificial intelligence and robotics as a source of rich information about the surroundings. A useful feature that can be extracted from these images is the distributio... Read More about The Effect of Pose on the distribution of Edge Gradients in Omnidirectional Images.

An asymptotic strategy to couple homogenized elastic structures (2018)
Journal Article
(2018). An asymptotic strategy to couple homogenized elastic structures. International Journal of Engineering Science, 26-39. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijengsci.2018.04.006

A two-scale methodology to calculate the local stress-strain state (SSS) in structures composed of connected elements is proposed. The methodology is based on the assumption that the connecting unit has a size small in comparison to the objects being...

Tiebreaks and Diversity: Isolating Effects in Lexicase Selection (2018)
Journal Article
(2018). Tiebreaks and Diversity: Isolating Effects in Lexicase Selection. https://doi.org/10.1162/isal_a_00109

A primary goal of evolutionary robotics (ER) is generalized control. That is, a robot controller should be capable of solving a variety of tasks in a domain, rather than only addressing specific instances of a task. Prior work has shown that Lexicase...
