Coupling of acoustic and intrinsic modes in 1-D combustor models (2019)
Journal Article
Shrira, V., & Mukherjee, N. K. (2019). Coupling of acoustic and intrinsic modes in 1-D combustor models. Combustion Science and Technology, 193(6), 889-910. https://doi.org/10.1080/00102202.2019.1678593

The work is concerned with the theoretical examination of a new type of thermo-acoustic instability in combustors not reported in the literature. The instability results from linear coupling between the conventional acoustic mode and the recently dis... Read More about Coupling of acoustic and intrinsic modes in 1-D combustor models.

Flexural vibration systems with gyroscopic spinners. (2019)
Journal Article
Carta, G., Nieves, M. J., Jones, I., Movchan, N., & Movchan, A. (2019). Flexural vibration systems with gyroscopic spinners. Philosophical Transactions A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 20190154 - ?. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsta.2019.0154

In this paper, we study the spectral properties of a finite system of flexural elements connected by gyroscopic spinners. We determine how the eigenfrequencies and eigenmodes of the system depend on the gyricity of the spinners. In addition, we prese...

Factors affecting the growth of infants diagnosed with cystic fibrosis by newborn screening (2019)
Journal Article
Gilchrist, & Kyriacou. (2019). Factors affecting the growth of infants diagnosed with cystic fibrosis by newborn screening. BMC Pediatrics, https://doi.org/10.1186/s12887-019-1727-9

Newborn screening (NBS) for cystic fibrosis (CF) improves nutritional outcomes. Despite early dietetic intervention some children fail to grow optimally. We report growth from birth to 2 years in a cohort of children diagnosed with CF by NBS and iden...

Measuring Similarity Between Discontinuous Intervals - Challenges and Solutions (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kabir, S., Wagner, C., Havens, T. C., & Anderson, D. T. (2019, June). Measuring Similarity Between Discontinuous Intervals - Challenges and Solutions. Presented at 2019 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE), New Orleans, LA, USA

Discontinuous intervals (DIs) arise in a wide range of contexts, from real world data capture of human opinion to α-cuts of non-convex fuzzy sets. Commonly, for assessing the similarity of DIs, the latter are converted into their continuous form, fol...

Using Fuzzy Inference system for detection the edges of Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Images (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ibraheem Jabbar, S., Day, C. R., & Chadwick, E. K. (2019, June). Using Fuzzy Inference system for detection the edges of Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Images

Edge detection in Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Imaging readily allows an ultrasound image to be rendered as a binary image. This facilitates automated measurement of geometric parameters, such as muscle thickness, circumference and cross-sectional area...

Our objective was to explore the nature and fr... Read More about Investigation of wearable health tracker version updates.

Transient response of a gyro-elastic structured medium: Unidirectional waveforms and cloaking (2019)
Journal Article
Garau, M., Nieves, M. J., Carta, G., & Brun, M. (2019). Transient response of a gyro-elastic structured medium: Unidirectional waveforms and cloaking. International Journal of Engineering Science, 115 - 141. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijengsci.2019.05.007

The transient analysis of gyro-elastic structured media, composed of periodically placed masses interconnected by elastic rods and attached to gyroscopic spinners, is presented. The analysis is based on an asymptotic transient model, developed in thi... Read More about Transient response of a gyro-elastic structured medium: Unidirectional waveforms and cloaking.

Effects of pre-stretch, compressibility and material constitution on the period-doubling secondary bifurcation of a film/substrate bilayer (2019)

Towards visualising change-based models (2019)
Presentation / Conference
(2019, September). Towards visualising change-based models. Presented at ME 2019 : Models and Evolution Workshop, Munich, Germany

This paper extends our previous work on change-based model persistence and demonstrates a tool that can replay the construction change-based model. The tool takes a change-based persistence file as input and plays it in the form of evolving diagrams... Read More about Towards visualising change-based models.
