High speed shadowgraphy for the study of liquid drops
(Springer, 2012)
Breakup of Liquid Filaments
(Phys. Rev. Lett, 2012)
Computations of turbulent premixed flames using conditional moment closure
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2012-06-12)
Lean premixed combustion is at present one of the most promising
methods to reduce emissions and to maintain high efficiency in combustion
systems. As the emission legislation becomes more stringent,
modelling of turbulent ...
Functional characterisation of LEA proteins from bdelloid rotifers
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, 2012-11-13)
‘Anhydrobiosis’ or ‘life without water’ is a fascinating phenomenon that was first described by the eminent Dutch microscopist Antony van Leewenhoek in bdelloid rotifers in 1702. Despite being studied for over three hundred ...
Detection of mycobacterial siderophores and implications for diagnostics
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Chemical Engineering and BiotechnologyQueen's College, 2012-11-13)
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a pervasive human pathogen that continues to kill 1.8 million people every year. Acquisition of iron within the host is
vital to the pathogenicity of Mtb and to accomplish this it ...
Effects of solution exposure on the combined axial-shear behaviour of unidirectional CFRP rods
(ElsevierComposites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing, 2012-04-06)
In fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) prestressed concrete applications, an FRP tendon must sustain high axial tensile stresses and, if cracks occur, additional dowel forces. The tendon may also be exposed to solutions and so ...
Phased Nonlinear Finite-Element Analysis of Precracked RC T-Beams Repaired in Shear with CFRP Sheets
(American Society of Civil EngineersJournal of Composites for Construction, 2012-10-17)
Phased nonlinear finite-element (FE) analyses were carried out to predict the behavior of precracked reinforced concrete (RC) T-beams repaired in shear with externally bonded (EB) carbon fiber–reinforced polymer (CFRP) ...
Thermodynamic and hydrodynamic behaviour of interacting Fermi gases
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, 2012-01-10)
Fermionic matter is ubiquitous in nature, from the electrons in metals and semiconductors or the neutrons in the inner crust of neutron stars, to gases of fermionic atoms, like 40K or 6Li that can be created and studied ...
