Analysis of Solar Radiation Data in Northern Ghana
(LAP Lambert Academic, 2012)
Energy plays a significant role in life. Humans need energy to operate in industries, agriculture, transport and services. Due to increasing population and technological development, humans consume more energy than before, ...
Contributions to Iterative Algorithms for Nonlinear Equations in Banach Spaces
(2012-12-13)
• Let H be a real Hilbert space. Let K, F : H → H be bounded,
continuous and monotone mappings. Let {un }∞ and {vn }∞ be
n=1
n=1
sequences in E defined iteratively from arbitrary u1 , v1 ∈ H by

Variable horizon model predictive control: robustness and optimality
(University of CambridgeDepartment of EngineeringControl Group, 2012-07-03)
Variable Horizon Model Predictive Control (VH-MPC) is a form of predictive control that includes the horizon length as a decision variable in the constrained optimisation problem solved at each iteration. It has been ...
Measurement of three-dimensional coherent fluid structure in high Reynolds number turbulent boundary layers
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2012-07-03)
The turbulent boundary layer is an aspect of fluid flow which dominates the performance of many engineering systems - yet the analytic solution of such flows is intractable for most applications. Our understanding of ...
A Tool for the Spectral Analysis of the Laser Doppler Anemometer Data of the Cambridge Stratified Swirl Burner
(Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge, 2012-06-08)
A series of flow fields generated by a turbulent methane/air stratified swirl burner are investigated using laser Doppler anemometer (LDA). The LDA provides flow field measurements with comparatively high temporal resolutions. ...
Flow Field Results of the Cambridge Stratified Swirl Burner Using Laser Doppler Anemometer

Conceptual design for a laminar-flying-wing aircraft
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2012-06-12)
The laminar-flying-wing aircraft appears to be an attractive long-term prospect
for reducing the environmental impact of commercial aviation. In assessing its
potential, a relatively straightforward initial step is the ...
Supporting virtuosity and flow in computer music
(University of CambridgeFaculty of Computer Science and TechnologyComputer Laboratory, 2012-10-09)
As we begin to realise the sonic and expressive potential of the computer, HCI researchers face the challenge of designing rewarding and accessible user experiences that enable individuals to explore complex creative domains ...
Non-solvolytic synthesis of aqueous soluble TiO2 nanoparticles and real-time dynamic measurements of the nanoparticle formation
(2012-06-07)
AbstractHighly aqueously dispersible (soluble) TiO2 nanoparticles are usually synthesized by a solution-based sol–gel (solvolysis/condensation) process, and no direct precipitation of titania has been reported. This ...
Device and circuit-level performance of carbon nanotube field-effect transistor with benchmarking against a nano-MOSFET
(2012-08-19)
AbstractThe performance of a semiconducting carbon nanotube (CNT) is assessed and tabulated for parameters against those of a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET). Both CNT and MOSFET models considered ...
