A systematic review of early life factors which adversely affect subsequent lung function (2016)
Journal Article
Kouzouna, A., Gilchrist, F., Ball, V., Kyriacou, T., Henderson, J., Pandyan, A., & Lenney, W. (2016). A systematic review of early life factors which adversely affect subsequent lung function. Paediatric Respiratory Reviews, 20, 67-75. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.prrv.2016.03.003

It has been known for many years that multiple early life factors can adversely affect lung function and future respiratory health. This is the first systematic review to attempt to analyse all these factors simultaneously. We adhered to strict a pri...

Multi-parametric analysis of strongly inhomogeneous periodic waveguides with internal cutoff frequencies (2016)
Journal Article
Kaplunov. (2016). Multi-parametric analysis of strongly inhomogeneous periodic waveguides with internal cutoff frequencies. Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, 3381-3392. https://doi.org/10.1002/mma.3900

In this paper, we consider periodic waveguides in the shape of a inhomogeneous string or beam partially supported by a uniform elastic Winkler foundation. A multi-parametric analysis is developed to take into account the presence of internal cutoff f...

Localized bulging in an inflated cylindrical tube of arbitrary thickness - the effect of bending stiffness (2016)
Journal Article
Francisco, G., Liu, J., & Fu, Y. (2016). Localized bulging in an inflated cylindrical tube of arbitrary thickness - the effect of bending stiffness. Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, 45-60. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmps.2016.02.027

We study localized bulging of a cylindrical hyperelastic tube of arbitrary thickness when it is subjected to the combined action of inflation and axial extension. It is shown that with the internal pressure P and resultant axial force F viewed as fun...

#hayfever; A Longitudinal Study into Hay Fever Related Tweets in the UK (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
de Quincey, E., Kyriacou, T., & Pantin, T. (2016, April). #hayfever; A Longitudinal Study into Hay Fever Related Tweets in the UK. Presented at 6th International Conference on Digital Health, Montreal

This paper describes a longitudinal study that has collected and analysed over 512,000 UK geolocated tweets over 2 years from June 2012 that contained instances of the words "hayfever" and "hay fever". The results indicate that the temporal distribut... Read More about #hayfever; A Longitudinal Study into Hay Fever Related Tweets in the UK.

Shape bifurcation of a pressurized ellipsoidal balloon (2016)
Journal Article
Geng, Y., Huang, J., & Fu, Y. (2016). Shape bifurcation of a pressurized ellipsoidal balloon. International Journal of Engineering Science, 115-125. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijengsci.2016.01.003

It is well-known that for most spherical and cylindrical rubber balloons the pressure versus volume curve associated with uniform inflation both has an N-shape, but their shape bifurcation has different characters: whereas a spherical balloon tends t...

Refined boundary conditions on the free surface of an elastic half-space taking into account non-local effects (2016)
Journal Article
Kaplunov. (2016). Refined boundary conditions on the free surface of an elastic half-space taking into account non-local effects. Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2015.0800

The dynamic response of a homogeneous half-space, with a traction-free surface, is considered within the framework of non-local elasticity. The focus is on the dominant effect of the boundary layer on overall behaviour. A typical wavelength is assume...

A class of reduced-order models in the theory of waves and stability (2016)
Journal Article
Chapman, C., & Sorokin, S. (2016). A class of reduced-order models in the theory of waves and stability. Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2015.0703

This paper presents a class of approximations to a type of wave field for which the dispersion relation is transcendental. The approximations have two defining characteristics: (i) they give the field shape exactly when the frequency and wavenumber l...

Canonical Nonclassical Hopf–Galois Module Structure of Nonabelian Galois Extensions (2016)
Journal Article

Let L/K be a finite Galois extension of local or global fields in any characteristic with nonabelian Galois group G, and let be an ambiguous ideal of L. We show that is free over its associated order in K[G] if and only if it is free over its associa...
