Biological removal of nitrogen and phosphorous from wastewater conventionally involves multiple processing steps to satisfy the differing oxygen requirements of the microbial species involved. In this work, simultaneous nitrification, denitrification... Read More about Biofilm-based simultaneous nitrification, denitrification, and phosphorous uptake in wastewater by Neurospora discreta.

In many European countries, lignite or brown coal is used as a fuel source in steam-electric power generation. Upon completion of mining activities, a reclamation plan is imperative to ensure environmental and social prosperity of local areas. Abando...

Direct Writing Unclonable Watermarks with an Electrochemical Jet (2022)
Journal Article
Speidel, A., Bisterov, I., & Clare, A. T. (2022). Direct Writing Unclonable Watermarks with an Electrochemical Jet. Advanced Functional Materials, 32(51), Article 2208116. https://doi.org/10.1002/adfm.202208116

Counterfeit parts result in significant losses per annum and are often dangerous, therefore they represent a serious concern for manufacturers and end users alike. Easily written but unclonable watermarks undermine the proposition of the counterfeite... Read More about Direct Writing Unclonable Watermarks with an Electrochemical Jet.

Centrifuge modelling of spoil slopes within pit-lake mine reclamations (2022)
Journal Article
Cui, G., Garala, T. K., Kantesaria, N., Doan, N.-P., Heron, C. M., Marshall, A. M., & Halder, K. (2022). Centrifuge modelling of spoil slopes within pit-lake mine reclamations. Gornictwo Odkrywkowe, LXIII(3), 23-28. https://doi.org/10.5604/01.3001.0053.8046

Pit lakes are a common form of reclamation of areas where open pit mining activities have taken place. The development of these lakes often uses previous overburden materials, or “spoils”, that are readily available. Depending on the local geology, t...

Foundation systems for sustainable revitalisation of spoil dump areas (2022)
Journal Article
Kantesaria, N., Cui, G., Garala, T. K., Doan, N.-P., Heron, C. M., Halder, K., & Marshall, A. M. (2022). Foundation systems for sustainable revitalisation of spoil dump areas. Gornictwo Odkrywkowe, LXIII(4), 10-15. https://doi.org/10.5604/01.3001.0053.8053

The design of foundations systems is well established in the literature and codes of practice. However, these are generally applicable to well characterised, homogenous ground conditions. Spoil materials represent a significant challenge when impleme... Read More about Foundation systems for sustainable revitalisation of spoil dump areas.

Quantifying the validity conditions of the Beckmann-Kirchhoff scattering model (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hooshmand, H., Liu, M., Leach, R., & Piano, S. (2022, August). Quantifying the validity conditions of the Beckmann-Kirchhoff scattering model. Presented at SPIE Optical Engineering + Applications 2022, San Diego, California, United States

Approximate and rigorous methods are widely used to model light scattering from a surface. The boundary element method (BEM) is a rigorous model that accounts for polarisation and multiple scattering effects. BEM is suitable to model the scattered li...

Soft robots are of increasing interest as they can cope with challenges that are poorly addressed by conventional rigid-body robots (e.g., limited flexibility). However, due to their flexible nature, the soft robots can be particularly prone to explo... Read More about Reconfigurable Soft Robots by Building Blocks.
