High speed shadowgraphy for the study of liquid drops
(Springer, 2012)
Breakup of Liquid Filaments
(Phys. Rev. Lett, 2012)
Turbulent partially premixed combustion: DNS analysis and RANS simulation
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2013-03-12)
Increasingly stringent regulation of pollutant emission has motivated the search
for cleaner and more efficient combustion devices, which remain the primary
means of power generation and propulsion for all kinds of ...
Deformation mechanisms beneath shallow foundations
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2013-02-05)
Shallow foundations can provide the most economical solution for supporting small-scale structures. The design approach is quite simple considering the ultimate bearing capacity and working-load settlement. Research has ...
Microwave-assisted pyrolysis of HDPE using an activated carbon bed
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, 2013-04-16)
Plastics play an enormous role in modern manufacturing, but the extraction and refining of raw materials, followed by the synthesis of plastics themselves, represents an enormous energy investment into a product that is ...
How do attitudes of habitual high-technology entrepreneurs to early-stage failure differ in Silicon Valley, Cambridge and Munich?
(University of CambridgeDepartment of EngineeringInstitute for Manufacturing, 2013-04-16)
Entrepreneurs develop new technology ventures in uncertain conditions with unproven technologies and limited resources. The majority of such ventures fail, yet entrepreneurship is regarded as a national (and regional) ...
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 ...
