Ant colony optimisation of a community pharmacy dispensing process using Coloured Petri-Net simulation and UK pharmacy in-field data (2022)
Journal Article

There are 11,619 community pharmacies in England which dispense over 1 billion prescriptions each year, providing essential primary care to NHS (National Health Service) patients. These pharmacies are facing pressure from a number of sources includin...

A comprehensive characterization of fracture in unit cell open foams generated from Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces (2022)
Journal Article

The main scope of the proposed study is to assess the occurrence of fracture in Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces (TPMS) foams subjected to compressive loading. TPMS, developed by the mathematics community, may be exploited as a backbone for developin...

Fundamental PWM Excitation Based Rotor Position Estimation for a Dual Three-Phase Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (2022)
Journal Article

Two rotor position estimation methods for a dual three-phase (DTP) permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) are investigated in this paper, where the rotor position is estimated by exploiting the saliency of the motor through the phase current der...

Data-Driven Machine Learning Approach for Predicting the Higher Heating Value of Different Biomass Classes (2022)
Journal Article

Higher heating values (HHV) is a very useful parameter for assessing the design and large-scale operation of biomass-driven energy systems. HHV is conventionally measured experimentally with an adiabatic oxygen bomb calorimeter. This procedure is oft...

Deformation mechanisms and fracture in tension under cyclic bending plus compression, single point and double-sided incremental sheet forming processes (2022)
Journal Article

This study investigates the deformation and fracture mechanisms of two testing methods, tension under cyclic bending (TCB) and tension under cyclic bending plus compression (TCBC) and their relationship to single point (SPIF) and double-sided (DSIF)... Read More about Deformation mechanisms and fracture in tension under cyclic bending plus compression, single point and double-sided incremental sheet forming processes.

Direct spectral distribution characterisation using the Average Photon Energy for improved photovoltaic performance modelling (2022)
Journal Article

Accurate photovoltaic (PV) performance modelling is crucial for increasing the penetration of PV energy into the grid, analysing returns on investment, and optimising system design prior to investment and construction. Performance models usually corr... Read More about Direct spectral distribution characterisation using the Average Photon Energy for improved photovoltaic performance modelling.
